  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

And you've just nailed a possibility for the big delusion that makes people follow and worship the devil.

If an alien race shows up saying they are humanity's master race, people are going to fall for it, and deny the Bible.


why would people believe that? If another species hasn't heard of God yet are created by God why wouldn't they have the same conclusions as us? Can you please elaborate how that makes anyone worship the devil? I worship God because it is truth, I find that it is not universal as the Bible claims I would have to wonder If what I believe isnt true. Believing what is wrong is more akin to Devil worship.

Yep. They are older and smarter than us. If they started performing what we view as miracles, it would be easy to get a large following. So many people already believe in aliens seeding the earth. Fallen angels could use that to construct a theology that points people the the father of lies.

That's right.

Regarding the specific "aliens" that some people claim to have had contact with (such as "the Greys"), if they truly do exist they could be fallen angels or demons.
But can fallen angels really make themselves appear as aliens?

In all instances in the Bible, we see demons operating as disembodied and/or invisible spirits. We only see angels of God appear as men. We never see fallen angels appear as men.

Sure, the Bible says Satan can appear as a angel of light. But even if this means he can make himself appear as a angel of light, it doesn't mean that he has the privileges a angel of God would have. This is the distinction.

Fallen angels appeared as men, preflood, because they had sex with women.

"Do not waste time arguing over godless ideas." (1 Timothy 4:7)
"Avoid worthless, foolish talk that only leads to more godless behavior. This kind of talk spreads like cancer..." (2 Timothy 2:16)
"Guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called knowledge." (1 Timothy 6:20)
"Instruct certain men not to teach strange doctrines, nor to pay attention to myths...which give rise to mere speculations rather than furthering the administration of God..." (1 Timothy 1:3,4)
"For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching...They will reject the truth and chase after myths."

Myth: An unfounded or false notion. A person or thing having only an imaginary or unverifiable existence.

When we speak of "aliens living on other planets," it's a myth. God has told us what He created, in His wonderful Bible, if anyone cares to believe it.

"All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip His people to do every good work." (2 Tim. 3:16)

How did that myth ever get started?
