Greetings,
This week we are going to pick up where we left off and explore the issue of hybrid creatures. First of all, does the Bible speak of hybrid creatures? Did things like Centaurs and Nagas exist? Could they exist today? Let’s begin our conversation around the satyr. A satyr according to mythology was a human/goat hybrid. Does the Bible acknowledge their existence? Absolutely!
“But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.” (Isaiah 13:21)
The most common rebuttal I get when I point this verse out to skeptics is that their version of the Bible translates this word as shaggy goat. Could it be that the translators of the King James Version were just being sloppy?
“But desert creatures will lie down there, And their houses will be full of owls; Ostriches also will live there, and shaggy goats will frolic there.” (Isaiah 13:21 NASB)
Let’s take a closer look shall we? The Hebrew word translated satyr in Isaiah 13:21 is the word sa’iyr. According to definition given by Strong’s Concordance this word can mean a devil, a goat, a kid, hairy, rough, or satyr. So how do we distinguish what meaning is actually being implied here? To answer this question we will look at two seemingly unrelated scriptures.
“And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.” (Leviticus 17:7)
“And he [Rehoboam, son of Solomon] ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.” (2 Chronicles 11:15)
So what do these verses have to do with our topic? Everything! Notice that I have bolded the word “devils” in both passages. The Hebrew word translated devils in these passages is—you guessed it—sa’yir! Trying to argue that sacrifices were being made to “shaggy goats” is about as ridiculous as pouring coffee into a coke bottle and arguing that the drink is actually coke. The context and interpretation is obviously speaking to more than an animal that produces milk and cheese. God literally rebuked the Israelites for making sacrifices to satyrs after He delivered them from Egypt. The Israelites actually whored themselves after these creatures. Moreover, Rehoboam moved to reinstitute this type of sacrifice and worship. The hybrids were real because the Bible says so—plain and simple.
Moreover, we must understand that the Bible reveals to us that these hybrids were inherently evil. It straightforwardly associates these creatures with a demonic nature in the original language and word use. This is our biblical premise for moving further into this study. The Bible supports the concept of hybrids, and it helps us to understand that when they occur, their nature is demonic. It can be deduced by simple logic that like nephilim, when hybrid creatures die, their spirits also join the spirit realm as demons. They are not treated like human spirits, and they are certainly not angels.
It is true that the Bible does not make reference to every mythological creature referenced by various mythologies. However, by simply understanding that the Bible speaks about the existence of hybrids, it makes room for the possibility that any and all of the so-called mythological creatures of other cultures may have existed at one time. This leaves us at a veritable Pandora’s Box. How do hybrid creatures come about and what is the agenda behind their creation?
In the book of Revelation we find that during the fifth trumpet judgment, bizarre creatures are being loosed from a place called the pit. I hinted at this earlier this year but the pit actually resides in another dimension. It’s is not something you will encounter while driving to your local grocery store. The king over this place is a fallen angel named Abaddon. It is from this passage that we can begin to gain a better understanding regarding hybrid creatures.
“And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power…And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. (Revelation 9:1-3, 7-11)
When we go into the original language it is confirmed that the entire description of these creatures is anatomical. Even the breastplates that this passage describes are an anatomical feature of these abominations. They are very much physical in nature and they are described as part human, part horse, part scorpion, and part lion with something else mixed in there to cause them to grow wings. What do you call a living organism that appears like this? It is a hybrid. When we take into account that their king is a fallen angel we also glean that the agenda to create hybrid creatures is something that originates with fallen angels. This allows fallen angels to expand the army of darkness. When hybrid creatures die, their spirits are then subjugated and still used to further the satanic agenda.
Although these particular hybrids of Revelation 9 are specifically reserved for release at the fifth trumpet, the agenda for hybrids has never been limited to the last days. Hybrids clearly existed in the Old Testament and with thousands of years to refine their technologies, what do you think Satan and his minions are up to today? They are tinkering with all kinds of possibilities in order to create their own army. Why don’t we see them today? Much of the work being done to this end has taken place in the heavenly places (or other dimensions) where fallen angels are located. Some things do seem to take place on earth, usually as part of black projects in underground bases, but to this end I will leave you to do your own research.
In any case, this is why the Bible discusses a population in the last days that was never written into the book of life. When we understand how the book of life works, our conclusion can only be that this is a non-human population.
It is not just angels working on this kind of thing, but humans are involved now as well. Just this past summer a news article was released reporting that 150 human animal hybrids were grown in UK labs. As a matter of fact, one woman actually testifies to being used as a ‘psychic’ in order to astral project into the bodies of hybrid creatures (being grown in underground bases as part of black projects) and assess their thoughts and feelings (note that she is not Christian if you choose to listen to her story).
The conclusion of the matter is that all of these problems are our responsibility as God’s people in the earth. We will be confronted with all of these forms of evil, and we will be called to continue to establish the victory of Jesus Christ in spite of them. The only reason any of this would scare a Christian is if that person’s view of God is too small. If you’re scared, it’s time to change your perspective on just how powerful God is. Not only does God have solutions to all of these problems, He has chosen you to be a part of the army that He will use to confront them. Even if you don’t want to, it is my assessment that the day will come when you won’t have a choice. You will fall away, stand for Jesus, or hide behind someone that thinks like me. When everything I have discussed over the past several weeks has manifested, the eschatological season for the following verse will have been established. I will stand firm and do great exploits for God. What about you?
“And such as violate the covenant he shall pervert and seduce with flatteries, but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits [for God].” (Daniel 11:32 AMP)
