But Because humans had to go through much more by overcoming sin, we'll also be rewarded with much more. God gave us the right to be royalty as his children, an offer that was not extended to anyone else.
Now the bible says we are royalty and we will rule and reign with Jesus. In eternity he is The Lord of lords and the King of kings. Who are these lords and kings? They are us. This concept of us being royalty would have much more meaning if we also reigned in life over other all types of beings in eternity as servant-kings.
Of course I could be wrong and I certainly would not die for this theory

Hey Sam!
(I use your name only as you revealed it publically in another thread)
I don't write, here, to challenge any of the content your writing about (aliens etc...). I only ask this:
In what way, if at all, does it change the way you live your life each day as a Christian? Would you live it differently if there were no aliens? Do you change your behavior (not just your thoughts) to think that there are aliens?
In other words, what is riding on your belief in this regard, aside from a theological playground (regardless of how interesting or even sound).
These are not challenges. They are questions, as posed.
In Love,
Peter
P.S. What's Paul up to these days?
