Why would the discovery of other living beings not for our planet conflict with our views of God?

Question

Would it challenge all views of God?

Answer 1

You don't have to go to another planet. On this planet only 40% of the population is christian, the other 60% conflict with the christian view of god. There are enough challenges here.

Answer 2

Jesus clearly states that there are other worlds that have not fallen into sin. Read again about the ninety and nine in Matthew 18. These sheep were safely in the fold. It was the one sheep (representing the earth) that Jesus came to seek and to save. Our planet is a lessonbook for the surrounding universe about the effects of sin and rebellion against the government of God.

To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, Ephesians 3:10

God will be vindicated in His dealings with sin and sinners before the universe by the way He deals with sin and sinners here on this earth. It will be shown that God is just in excluding sinners from eternal life, and just in allowing the righteous to inherit eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Answer 3

I don't think it's a conflict at all. The question is, would the Gospel as some understand it be the same on all planets or might God have a different plan for them?

Answer 4

Depends...Some Christians say evolution could have happened b/c the Bible doesn't specify how long a day is.
I guess there would be some who could justify a monotheistic philosophy with aliens.

Answer 5

I don't see why it would. Why would it?

Answer 6

not really as God would have made them as well, perhaps they would have a greater knowledge of God than we do.
