I do

Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Psalm 148:7
Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

Isaiah 13:22
And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.

Isaiah 27:1
In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.

Isaiah 34:13
And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls.

Isaiah 35:7
And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.

Isaiah 43:20
The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

Malachi 1:3

Answer 2

If the bible mentions anything about a dragon, which it very well could (I haven't read it all sorry, although I am Christian) I would take a shot in the dark and say it was a metaphor for something else.

Answer 3

human beings intending to the label "psychological" might want to pick to employ a dictionary previously posing questions. The Bible Dictionary defines "dragon" as: "Hebrew words, sometimes translated as snake, whale, serpent, jackal or snake-like animal", so, definite, I do have self belief dragons once existed and in a large number of situations nonetheless do.

Answer 4

There is one portion of scripture (in Job) that sounds like a description of a dragon in the sense that we usually think of dragons.

Generally, it is not wise to base a belief on one scripture.
However, if one chooses to believe in dragons, big deal.
What's your point?

Answer 5

Does anyone believe that dragons once existed?

Answer 6

Dragons are dinosaur skeletons that have been found by early cultures all over the world and explained by imagination.

Answer 7

Yes, you see dragons aren't demonic, they're ancient just like dinosaurs. There's nothing wrong with believing in dragons... as long as you don't worship them and put them before God!!

Answer 8

Yeah. St. George. If the church endorses him, then they MUST endorse the fact the dragons existed, at least at some point.

Answer 9

I see them as a symbol, but also as possible to have existed, but not probable. But the Bible talks about certain things you might percieve as dragons, not just symbolically, but in a reality.

Answer 10

Don't listen to these people. Whether you consider yourself to be a Christian or not, you should believe what you want to believe based on the facts that you have gathered for yourself--NOT just because other "Christians" say that you should. ALWAYS think for yourself.
