Shocking I know, but stick with me...
If you own a TV and have cable, you’ve probably at some point came across the show “Ancient Aliens”.
It airs on the History Channel of all places. That’s right, the HISTORY Channel. Do you remember when the History Channel used to cover things like The Civil War or the French Revolution or Christopher Columbus? Well it hasn’t done any of that in years.
No, it’s biggest claim to fame most would probably say is the Ancient Aliens series.
But I’m going to surprise some of you with what I’m about to say next. The series makes the wrong CONCLUSION, but it isn’t that far off in the ISSUES that it raises.
Folks, all you have to do is look around our planet, do some basic research and ask some very basic questions.
Let’s start off with this question: why on Earth are there pyramids on all 7 continents? That’s right, pyramids have even recently been discovered on Antarctica. The best known pyramids are in Egypt and also scattered all over Central and South America. It can’t just be coincidence that pyramids have been discovered that were built several thousands of years ago on continents separated by oceans! And if it’s not a coincidence, then that means that either ancient people had the ability to travel those vast distances and/or were in communication with each other somehow. Either is a stunning conclusion!
For the record, our official position here at Living Gospel is that the Bible has already told us many of these details. The Bible contains a prophetic narrative that fills in all the gaps and gives a very plausible explanation to all of this.
But let’s get back to the pyramids for a minute. Did you know that even with our “modern” technology, we cannot replicate many of the aspects of the pyramids? That’s right! Certain things about the pyramids still baffle scientists and builders alike! Certainly, something much more than Egyptian slaves using bricks and mortar and ropes and pulleys in the desert was going on.
Check out these stunning facts from Ancient Code:
The pyramid is estimated to have around 2,300,000 stone blocks that weigh from 2 to 30 tons each and there are even some blocks that weigh over 50 tons.
The Pyramid of Menkaure, the Pyramid of Khafre and the Great Pyramid of Khufu are precisely aligned with the Constellation of Orion.
The interior temperature is constant and equals the average temperature of the earth, 20 Degrees Celsius (68 Degrees Fahrenheit).
The outer mantle was composed of 144,000 casing stones, all of them highly polished and flat to an accuracy of 1/100th of an inch, about 100 inches thick and weighing approx. 15 tons each.
The cornerstone foundations of the pyramid have ball and socket construction capable of dealing with heat expansion and earthquakes.
The mortar used is of an unknown origin (Yes, no explanation was given). It has been analyzed, and its chemical composition is known, but it can’t be reproduced. It is stronger than the stone and still holding up today.
It was originally covered with casing stones (made of highly polished limestone). These casing stones reflected the sun’s light and made the pyramid shine like a jewel. They are no longer present being used by Arabs to build mosques after an earthquake in the 14th century loosened many of them. It has been calculated that the original pyramid with its casing stones would act like gigantic mirrors and reflect light so powerful that it would be visible from the moon as a shining star on earth. Appropriately, the ancient Egyptians called the Great Pyramid “Ikhet”, meaning the “Glorious Light”. How these blocks were transported and assembled into the pyramid is still a mystery. – http://www.gizapyramid.com/general.htm
Aligned True North: The Great Pyramid is the most accurately aligned structure in existence and faces true north with only 3/60th of a degree of error. The position of the North Pole moves over time and the pyramid was exactly aligned at one time.
Center of Land Mass: The Great Pyramid is located at the center of the land mass of the earth. The east/west parallel that crosses the most land and the north/south meridian that crosses the most land intersect in two places on the earth, one in the ocean and the other at the Great Pyramid.
The four faces of the pyramid are slightly concave, the only pyramid to have been built this way.
The centers of the four sides are indented with an extraordinary degree of precision forming the only 8 sided pyramid; this effect is not visible from the ground or from a distance but only from the air, and then only under the proper lighting conditions. This phenomenon is only detectable from the air at dawn and sunset on the spring and autumn equinoxes, when the sun casts shadows on the pyramid.
The granite coffer in the “King’s Chamber” is too big to fit through the passages and so it must have been put in place during construction.
The coffer was made out of a block of solid granite. This would have required bronze saws 8-9 ft. long set with teeth of sapphires. Hollowing out of the interior would require tubular drills of the same material applied with a tremendous vertical force.
Microscopic analysis of the coffer reveals that it was made with a fixed point drill that used hard jewel bits and a drilling force of 2 tons.
The Great Pyramid had a swivel door entrance at one time. Swivel doors were found in only two other pyramids: Khufu’s father and grandfather, Sneferu and Huni, respectively.
It is reported that when the pyramid was first broken into that the swivel door, weighing some 20 tons, was so well balanced that it could be opened by pushing out from the inside with only minimal force, but when closed, was so perfect a fit that it could scarcely be detected and there was not enough crack or crevice around the edges to gain a grasp from the outside.
With the mantle in place, the Great Pyramid could be seen from the mountains in Israel and probably the moon as well.
The Descending Passage pointed to the pole star Alpha Draconis, circa 2170-2144 BCE. This was the North Star at that point in time. No other star has aligned with the passage since then.
The southern shaft in the King’s Chamber pointed to the star Al Nitak (Zeta Orionis) in the constellation Orion, circa 2450 BCE The Orion constellation was associated with the Egyptian god Osiris. No other star aligned with this shaft during that time in history.
Sun’s Radius: Twice the perimeter of the bottom of the granite coffer times 10^8 is the sun’s mean radius. [270.45378502 Pyramid Inches* 10^8 = 427,316 miles]
The curvature designed into the faces of the pyramid exactly matches the radius of the earth.

Folks, I don’t care how many ropes and pulleys you have, human beings in the desert are not lifting 30 ton blocks! Nor did power tools and power drills exist back then. Nor could we replicate the perfect finish of the casing stones which were accurate down to 1/100 of an inch! That’s less than a human hair! It was pure perfection, and we couldn’t do it today with cranes and computers! Nor could any human being possibly have aligned the pyramids so perfectly with the starts and constellations. Or, and this may be my personal favorite, they located the Great Pyramid perfectly on top the Center of Land Mass of the Earth. Folks, you can’t do any of that without advanced technology and massive power and force!
You have be willingly blind to look at these facts and not realize SOMETHING is going on.
But is it “Ancient Aliens”?
No.
Sorry to burst your bubble. But I suppose it could be if you consider the Nephilim of the Bible to be “aliens” to Earth. The Book of Jude certainly does.
What am I saying? Let’s back up a step. You do know that Fallen Angels, Nephilim and Giants are mentioned ALL OVER the Bible right? many pastors gloss over it because, quite frankly, they either don’t have any comprehension of what it means or they don’t want to rock the boat with their congregations.
But the Bible is warning us! God did not hide it from us. Take a look.
Here’s Genesis 6:4:
4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.
Usually when people sit down to read the Bible, they decide to start in Genesis. They read along and it’s going great and then they hit Genesis 6 and the train goes off the tracks.
What in the world does this mean? Sons of God? Had children with the daughters of men? They (either the Sons of God or the Children or both) became the Mighty Men of old? What the heck does all of that mean?
It means, folks, that there was a cosmic uprising where Lucifer (Satan), originally one of the highest ranking Angels in Heaven, rallied 1/3 of the Angels in Heaven to rebel with him against God (YHWH). This account is mentioned several times in the Bible, most notably Isaiah 14:12, Luke 10:18, Revelation 9:1, Hebrews 12:22, Revelation 12:3–9, Revelation 12:4 and Revelation 12.
We also have Jude 1:6 which says:
6 And angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day,
This is speaking of the exact same event. These Angels did not keep their own domain (some translations say original domain) (heaven). They came to Earth, just as it says in Genesis 6:4. It all connects.
So how does that connect to the pyramids? And Ancient Aliens?
Because they weren’t aliens at all. They were the Nephilim. Or the “giants” spoken of all throughout the Old Testament. You can’t read very far in the Old Testament without stumbling upon tribe after tribe of giants.
Do you remember Numbers 13, where spies were sent into Canaan to survey the Promised Land? Do you remember the report? Take a look:
31 But the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.” 32 And they gave the children of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, “The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature. 33 There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight.”
Some people gloss over this as though they were just intimidated and exaggerating. No! This is a quite literal summary! Giant bones have been found all over the world showing that a class of giants most definitely lived on this Earth, some 10 and 15 feet tall!
Here’s just one verse from the Bible noting the exceptional size of King Og. From Deuteronomy 3:11:
(Og king of Bashan was the last of the Rephaites. His bed was decorated with iron and was more than nine cubits long and four cubits wide. It is still in Rabbah of the Ammonites.)
Wikipedia suggests this translates to Og being between 9 and 13 feet tall!
Remember Goliath? Not just a tall dude. He was also a descendent of the Nephilim.
In fact, all of the tribes that Israel would encounter were descendants of the Nephilim or the Rephaim. All of the “ites” – the Canaanites, the Amorites, even the Philistines – they were all literal giants. The Nephilim.
Suddenly another Bible mystery starts to make sense.
Have you ever wondered about this one? Or asked your pastor about it? If God is all loving, then why was he constantly commanding Israel to completely wipe out and kill all living things in any city they conquered in the Old Testament? I bet you’ve never gotten a real good answer on that one.
But there IS a good answer! Can you see it already? Folks, these were not 100% human beings in these tribes. They were the offspring of the Fallen Angels. What the Bible calls the Nephilim. They were NOT God’s original creation. They were not God’s intent. It was Lucifer’s rebellion against God that lead to this demonic race and God wanted it eliminated…for the safety of mankind. Now THAT is an explanation I can understand and agree with! Not at all an arbitrary or capricious order by God.
It also explains yet ANOTHER Biblical mystery. Have you ever read Genesis 6:9 and wondered what it meant that Noah was “perfect”?
These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, and perfect in his generations: Noah walked with God.
Well, what does “perfect” mean? We know it can’t mean morally perfect. Because the Bible teaches none are perfect, none are without sin. Also, Noah had a drunken orgy with his daughters after getting off the boat. So that kinda rules out morally perfect.
What it actually means is Noah and his family had not been corrupted by the DNA of the Nephilim. They were still 100% human. God created humans. From the first Chapter in Genesis, he prophesies that he will redeem and save humans. So what does the devil do? He figures if he can eliminate pure human DNA, then he can make God a liar and destroy the prophecy that God will come back to save and redeem his creation — humanity. So God wiped out this corruption with the global flood.
Again, it all starts to make much more sense. This was not God having a bad day. It was not God looking at the world and seeing people sin and deciding he was done with the world so he’d destroy it. No, the mega-narrative of the Bible tells us that’s not God. This was Him once again redeeming things and seeking to eliminate the works of the Devil on this Earth.
There’s so much more we could add, but let’s take it full circle and wrap up this article for now. We’ll add new articles later. But bringing things to a conclusion, we agree with Ancient Aliens in this regard: there is MUCH MORE to our historical past than the official narrative. By that I mean the narrative they teach in schools. That humans created the pyramids. No chance. So where do we turn? Do we say it was Aliens, as the History Channel has done? Or do we look to the Bible, which sure enough has it’s own version of the story to tell. I know where I land.
