To the believer, strange objects in the skies are secondary to Who is coming out of the sky very soon, to receive us in the clouds and to take us home.
Nonetheless, there is a fever-pitched interest in aliens since President Trump released the long-awaited UFO-files. Almost 2 billion people have accessed them. Stephen Spielberg wanted to make a movie that explains the unexplainable—yet the UFO phenomena is very explainable!
Made in the Image of God
Mankind are the ones made in the image of God. But, answering the haunting question, “are we alone?”, is easy. We share our universe with angels, archangels, cherubim, seraphim, fallen angels, demons, and entities such as the Prince of Persia—a spirit. So, we are hardly alone.
None of these entities were in Spielberg’s mind when he made “Disclosure Day.” He believes there is active life in other solar systems. He is looking for the extraterrestrial, not the interdimensional. He also thinks that once Christians learn the truth, we could lose our faith. Really, Steven? Seeing how the unseen world of demons operate only strengthens the believer.
Abducted by Jesus
We have the last laugh. Believers will disappear to our Heavenly Home. Conveniently blamed will be the new and celebrated UFO entities who abducted pesky Christians. UFO abductions have been reported for decades and some experiences of survivors are believable. Jesus’ abduction of us will be entirely different!
All of this exploded in the late 1940s just as the new nation of Israel was forming. A coincidence? No, I don’t think so. Satan knew that was the signal that time was running out. That was the beginning of the end. He would kick things into overdrive.
Creatures Out of the Abyss
Since the 1940s, even UFO “occupants” have been seen by some. People describe entities that resemble the demons who come out of the abyss in Revelation 9. We are made in image of God as stated above. These creatures are often described as gross and capable of evil. I believe some of them will be here to torment the left behind world such as those coming out of the abyss.
Still, reliable people like Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), an evangelical Christian, said if the general public saw what he has seen, they would not sleep at night. What did he see? clearly, something bizarre is going on of last days’ proportion. Is it just the predicted strong delusion? (II Thess. 2:11)
More Popular Than Ever
Prophecy News Watch writes, “Steven Spielberg’s highly-anticipated film, ‘Disclosure Day’, opened in theaters, introducing millions of moviegoers to questions surrounding alien life, government secrecy, and humanity’s place in the universe. Combined with a steady stream of UFO documentaries, streaming services, podcasts, and social media discussions, the topic of non-human intelligence has never been more prominent in the public consciousness.”
An Alien Savior?
Spielberg wanted to explain the unexplainable, but to the believer, all of this is very understandable. But, the demons involved are not cute little ETs we share life with. Evil is waxing worse and worse (II Tim. 3:13). They are part of the coming Antichrist empire. They may eventually announce an alien savior.
Nothing sells like sensationalism. A month ago, a group of American pastors warned that President Donald Trump’s release of ‘alien files’, along with other secrets given to them, could cause doubt among Christians and raise fear. They were told to prepare their flocks!
One pastor said that the upcoming revelations could make the Christian Bible look like a myth.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) has also claimed that she has seen evidence of alien spacecraft, and claims to know many shocking details.
God Dwells Among Us: We Are Not Alone
We don’t have to hope or wonder at the prospect that “we are not alone” in the universe. We already know we aren’t alone. In his grace, God saw fit to reveal himself and dwell among us.
We are living in incredible times. President Trump says the new Iran deal with bring “peace and security” which leaps out of the Bible (I Thess. 5:3). If you know your Bible, you will be like the Sons of Issachar who understood the times.
Let us look up, not for signs in the skies, or for orbs or mysterious objects, but for His glorious return.
Nothing more than this belief in extraterrestrial life has seared human consciousness more since man became aware he’s part of a universe so vast it’s impossible to comprehend. He has invented things to explain his relevance in this world where the only way to make sense of it is by making the unknown, known. “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. Isaiah 55:8 (NKJV)
When you think of the micro things of creation invisible to our naked eye, but made visible through our advanced machines, then its vastness seen by only our most advanced machines, it becomes evident by a Believer this universe is God’s Handiwork.”The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.'” Psalm14:1 and Psalm 53:1.
Then along comes Hollywood, and science too, confounding us with supposition, theories, and conjecture. All to sell their science papers, scripts and books to make money and become famous.
Another great article by Jan on this subject I must say! I don’t know if missing people post Rapture will be explained as alien abductions. When people start investigating the internet there will be too much search engine info about the Rapture for them too ignore. I don’t believe the antichrist will have the ability to limit this so people will realize what happened and either follow Christ, or reject Him, which the goat nations obviously do.
Matthew 24: 4, do not be deceived. There is so much deception, POTUS Trump is deceived with his so-call Iran peace plan, and his inflated ego does not help much either, but God is still using Trump to fulfill His plans.
I must agree that there is much deception afloat. Considering Jan’s statement: President Trump says the new Iran deal with bring “peace and security” which leaps out of the Bible (I Thess. 5:3). If you know your Bible, you will be like the Sons of Issachar who understood the times. Given this, can I ask: first, what you believe the transfer of the O.T. Saints and paradise, which was before Christ’s resurrection in the belly of the earth, but now is seen in the third Heaven as a result of Jesus or following His resurrection; then what is its meaning to the formation of His Church, which Scripture reveals is founded to bring in Israel’s promised New Covenant? Second: is Israel not to be added into this New Covenant Church by her Messiah, considering that she was widowed as stated early on in chapter 54 of Isaiah following Her Husbands death in chapter 53, and then she is promised there in that chapter to once again be married to this her redeemer? Thirdly, can we justify ignoring these truths in the formation of our Church Doctrine, including the doctrine of eschatology?
