The first verse of the Bible said God created the "Heavens" and the "Earth". There is nothing in the Bible that suggests that Earth is that One and Only realm. You are saying that. I'm only suggesting that so far their is no proof one way or the other. The Bible only concerns itself with life on this planet.

Your thoughts on the universe


God created it all. Everything. That which we know and that which we don't know no.

What glorious God we have.

It does indeed.

The Three "Heavens" designations:


THIRD HEAVEN - Psalms 2:4 -- (God's Abode)

SECOND HEAVEN - Genesis 1:16, 17 -- (Sun, Moon & Stars)

FIRST HEAVEN - Ephesians 2:2 -- (Atmosphere above Earth -- part of Satan's realm)

True...

But then again, Man is created in God's Image. As well as His creatures. For HIS purposes.

"Proof" one way or the other will be relative belief in the Creator God's purpose, plan, and stated explanation of the only Realm that matters in His Creation as per Scripture.

ETA:

With regards to the "First Heavens," Ephesians 2:2 refers to the "Prince of the Power of the Air" -- that "First Heaven" realm also shared by Satan and his minions.

"Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience"

How do you know it's empty? Maybe there's another dimension lurking behind the emptiness.

If God created us in his image what about life forms in other galaxies?

Are there other life forms in other galaxies? Does it really matter?

If such life exists it does nothing to undermine Christianity. Scripture only speaks to our situation on our planet.

You are supposing “image” means physical likeness? What about mind? Intelligence? Creativity?
Are humans, like God, in some way triune beings?

Jesus’s Incarnation, Crucifixion, and Resurrection was God’s unique solution to the cataclysm in Eden. How earth’s catastrophe and it’s redemption resonated throughout the galaxies is unknown to us.

Perhaps earth’s problems were restricted to earth and other planets bearing life remained unaffected and in their Edenic state. Perhaps they too turned away from the Creator suffering as earth did and, like earth, have had the way back to God made available to them through Jesus’s sacrifice. We just don’t know.

What’s the universe like? The beings playing marbles with bags full of galaxies at the end of Men In Black…were created by God Almighty.

Maybe it’s to remind us of how there are bigger things than us. But our egos continually force us to ignore that. And demand that we see ourselves as the center and master of the universe. But we’re not. And never will be.



This logic is what created the religion of, "manmade global warming".

"In my father's house there are manyy dwelling places. If it were not so I would have told you.

Space. time, dimensons, existance, eternity. Our place in it is pretty small.
