Dinosaurs-to-Noah (Poem)

See the Dinosaurs series here

Hints and clues from glimpses historical,

God gives to us in His Book Biblical.

He wants us to connect the dots and believe,

Insights from His inferences that we perceive.

satan created a fallen angel squad,

When told, in a jealous rage, He couldn’t be God!

Now whatever God creates, demons seek to corrupt.

From good seeds He plants, they make sure evil fruits erupt.

Human history is doubtlessly replete,

With stories of how, with God, demons compete.

But what about before man was on Earth?

What insights about this can we unearth?

While many rely on Bible glimpses,

For insights on Earth’s pre-human ages,

It’s to science that many others turn,

For creational insights we all yearn.

Still, so many of us simply don’t care.

No interest in the distant past to stare.

Yet even their interest may be somewhat piqued,

When of the past new science theories bespeak.

Here’s a notion by which I am always awed:

Science is ‘man scratching at the Face of God’.

If so, God is just allowing us all to perceive,

Him in Whom most scientists profess …not to believe!

In His Grace, God certainly gave to us,

Key clues and insights for us to discuss,

But in faithless pondering, we wander.

Thus many of His insights, we squander.

For example…

The Bible says, for God, some demons had such disdain,

They decided to abandon their ‘proper domain’.

Taking the form of man, they married women,

And sired human giants who where titans!

Over time, human DNA became so corrupted,

God decided such evil had to be interrupted.

He called for a flood, all land life to drown,

But as righteous and just, Noah was found. ¹

In this history, could we perhaps find,

Insights from science with which to align?

For example…

What from Noah’s story might we discern,

And about dinosaurs fresh insights learn??

Any review of human history,

Reveals devilish plots, wise and crafty,

Seeking all of God’s good deeds to upstage,

Because of satan’s age-ole jealous rage. ²

We know one strict, modern scientific practice,

Is to precede human tests and analysis,

With tests on suitable animal species,

Who first take our place as ‘close human proxies’. ³

Ummm…

Do you think for one second we, in our sage wisdom,

Discovered this practice about which demons were dumb?!?

Is it a stretch to imagine satan’s dictate,

That, with certain animals, demons should first mate??

In light of Noah, to you, does this notion seem plausible?

Imagine the offspring of such unions, diabolical!

With the DNA of those animals corrupted,

Imagine how that evil would be interrupted!

Yep…

Hints and clues from glimpses historical,

God gives to us in His Book Biblical.

How do you connect the dots and believe,

Insights from His inferences you perceive??

----------

¹ Genesis 6, 2 Peter 2:4-5, and Jude 6. The Bible does not say Noah's DNA escaped corruption, or that his bloodline (from his 3 sons and their wives) escaped such corruption. Could this help to explain why some people, like Goliath, who were born after the flood became giants?

² See: Luke 10:18 and Isaiah 14:12-17

³ This is true for medical, military and even some space technologies.
