Are Sasquatch Real?

[Edward429451]

I don't know if I put this in the right forum. Move it if you think it should be moved.

Are Sasquatch real? Have you ever seen one? What are they? How do they fit in to the grand scheme of things?

 

[Lamb]

I'm curious about them too. There are some animals that were once folklore that turned out to be true, so you never know. I don't believe that they have special powers like some people are claiming.

 

[Frankj]

Of course they're real and probably carnivorous as well, haven't you ever wondered about all those people who simply disappear in the wilderness with no trace of them ever found again?

 

[Edward429451]

Hey how about that, I got a response to this! I figured no one was comfortable talking about them.

The way I figure it, they can't be folklore because too many people have seen them and made videos of them. And there are way more video clips of sasquatch nowadays than there ever was and I watch a lot of them. Sure maybe some of the videos are faked, but everyone carries a camera now so some's real. It makes sense.

They have to be something because they are seen and videoed. So what could they be? And how do they fit into the whole God and satan thing? They have to be significant in some way.

What do we know about them? They are real. And we hardly ever see them if at all and when they are seen, they hide or run from man...(So they're smart, right?!) What else do we know abut them?

It does say in Genesis that Nephilim were in the earth n those days and also after that...which is now? Maybe they are Nephilim? Jesus also said later, it will be as it was in the days of Noah, so there's that!

That makes me think, if the Genesis 6 account of fallen angels snatching earth women to have babies and they are the Nephilim which were the offspring... They got in a lot of trouble for that, so maybe that threat from God to leave our women alone is what makes them run from man!

The ones who were punished are the same ones which were bound in chains underneath the Euphrates river? I think they were.

If that's true then it gives credibility to Genesis 6 and the Angel view.

I've often wondered if the Son's of God that interbred with human women were actually angels as is the common thinking and were instead an entirely different category of beings (spiritual or otherwise).

Jesus seemed to indicate that the Angels are not reproductive beings (that do not marry and have families) and I see no real references to them in the Bible as being either male or female in the sense man is to indicate they could.

Not that that's actually important or needs to be known, just something I wonder about occasionally.

Well, Jesus didn't actually say that did He? He said, they dont marry or are given in marriage, not that they dont having plumbing. I've heard this idea tossed around before and so I thought about it quite a bit. And over time I've seen things which might explain that. I found two places in scripture that quotes from the book of Enoch, and while Enoch is not canon that doesn't mean that it isn't useful, and Enoch talks about it, then in Jude 6 our canon quotes it. Enoch adds more details to the story than canon has.

Jude 1:6
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day..../KJV

Enoch says (IIRC) that 200 angels made the pact, and after they sinned God punished (four of them?) who were the main instigators in it and punished them so severely by putting them in chains all the way down in Tartarus. That's the other place the book of Enoch is quoted.

2 Peter 2:4
4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;

Jude is talking about the angels who sinned with earth women. They left their own habitation, or IOW, their spiritual body so that would be able to cohabit with women. Enoch says the fallen angels had a meeting about it on Mt Herman and many were against it, in fear of God. So some of them made a pact together and went ahead and did it. In 2 Peter 2:4 it says they were cast down to hell, but in other translations (and the original language) it says "Tartarus" which is the deepest part of hell. and when those angels were punished, it scared all the other guilty angels so bad that they stopped doing it, then God brought the flood and wiped all of them out.

It was after that, that, cattle mutilations started happening. Did you know how similar cattle blood is to humans? Very much so, they used to use it for transfusions into people.

And they way I figure it, that our bible quotes from Enoch lends Enoch some credibility, even if it's not canon. Ok, so it's not canon so it isnt infallible. Even so, it's a good book. Just not scripture.

Jude 1:6
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day..../KJV

That word, Habitation is a good word for a word study that shine light on this. Habitation is translated from the Greek word G3613, oikētḗrion.


The KJV translates Strong's G3613 in the following manner: house (1x), habitation (1x).

And over in 2 Corinthians 5:1 it says,

5:1
For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens..../KJV

This speaks of taking off this house and we get a spiritual one. "House" is translated from G3614, which is the root word for oikētḗrion so it's talking about the same thing.

We're all 3 parts, spirit/soul/body. I am a spirit. I have a soul. I live in a body. Our body is a temporary dwelling place for our spirit. And so, as above so below?

The fallen angels disrobed from their spiritual body and took on a flesh body somehow? I don't know exactly the details but it says they did it. So in heaven spiritual bodies do not have a need to reproduce, because God is the creator in Heaven! It must be something like that. It sure makes sense to me, in a see through a glass darkly way, lol.

So our body is a temporary dwelling place for our spirit, like a house or a car. At this point in my life, I'm ready to trade in this rusty old Nova, lol.

Throughout the animal and plant kingdoms where male and female are present it is strictly for the purpose of reproduction. This is how God apparently intended two sexes to function, for each to reproduce after their own kind.

So if we look at the angels as having male and female sexes perhaps we should follow Einsteins example when he examined a new proposal and ask ourselves "Why would God do it that way?".

I see no indication in the Bible that the angels reproduce themselves, all having been directly created at the same time, so what would be the purpose of them being male and female?

Enoch is an interestingly comprehensive book, Martin Luther is said to have stated there is merit in reading it, but cannot be thought of as anything approaching cannon since when it was written and who wrote it is unknown and unknowable, but certainly not by written by Enoch himself or given to Moses to write.

In any event, it's just interesting to speculate on in, a fascinating mental exercise, but of no real value to Christians in the practice of Christianity, maybe to Mormons since it would fit into their cosmology, but not for Christians.

IMO, of course, not to discount anyone else's views.

But that is a biological function and not a spiritual attribute at all. In Enoch the fallen angels are called the Watchers, and they were supposed to, watch us I guess.

I can see two angels talking, hey do you see what that man is doing to his Wife?! That looks like fun, and we could have children by them too...

I kind of can't blame them, our women are pretty, lol.

But God punished them and so from our perspective and experience, what do people do when they are told no? Look for a loophole! And that might explain why Aliens started being seen and cattle mutilations. That might be fallen angels gathering genetic material for cloning operations so the evil spirits could have bodies to inhabit. You can remember back your UFO history. We've been seeing what have been coined as, the Greys for a long time. Nowadays we've also heard of 3 other types of Aliens, the Reptilians, the Nordics, and I forget the other one. But it's like they have been progressing in their making of alien clone bodies fashoined in a laboratory.

The main thrust of Jeus ministry, He was casting out evil spirits. Where did they come from? Not the OT. Scripture says when a spirit is cast out of a man it goes to arid spaces and wanders and can do next to nothing. But if they can enter a body then they have superhuman abilities. So all those Nephilim which died in the flood, were earth bound and all of them needed a body. and they didn't want to chance making God angry again, so let's make some bodies in a lab?

And Saquatches...are they a different series in Demonic body forming and cloning? Keeping to themselves and running from man. But there's an indication of being intelligent right there. They know their day is coming when the will not run any more, and they could easily become aggressive towards man.

It could be. So If so, two things to remember about Sasquatches if you ever see one. They are probably very highly intelligent, and two, they are all demonic and so are bound to obeying the Name of Jesus. We have authority over them.
