How will "religions" handle the discovery of alien life?

[d taylor]

There are two types of angels, Holy and fallen. Neither are of this world, but both types have been manifested here.Some look just like you and me. That is why it is written
Hebrews 13:2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

They are of this world, this earth was their home and there is no other place to go except up in heaven but that is not far, just above our heads . satan and more than likely the rest of the angels before satan fell, had earth as their home. And i am not so sure they never left, just because you can not see them does not mean they are not hear.

"angels are aliens"




and we already accept the fact that there are good ones and bad ones.

What is more -- we are not trying to "evangelize the fallen angels". Nor do Christians attempt to "Evangelize" the good angels.

1. Is there anything that prevents the bad angels from "mock" spoofing as bad aliens from other worlds? IF that is part of their "plan" they have the technology (power) to pull it off, no question.

2. Is there any reason that good beings on other worlds would want to come here on "vacation" - to a world where the Bible says the devil is "the god of this world"? 2 Cor 4:4?

===================


Heb 1 - NKJV/KJV
God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;

Heb 11 NKJV/KJV
3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

Job 1 and Job 2 --- Satan says "he comes from Earth" -- where does everyone else in the room "come from"?

If there was "only one place to come from " why is Satan being asked "where do you come from"?

I count that out because,
angels don't fly in spaceships.

good ones don't but bad ones are pretty much free to spin whatever fictional narrative they like to dupe people.

Even the good ones are seen having something that is 'undefined' for us, having some "appearance and workmanship" that is like a "wheel within a wheel". Heaven only knows what that is.

Ezek 1
15 Now as I looked at the living beings, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living beings, for each of the four of them. 16 The appearance of the wheels and their workmanship was like sparkling beryl, and all four of them had the same form, their appearance and workmanship being as if one wheel were within another. 17 Whenever they moved, they moved in any of their four directions without turning as they moved. 18 As for their rims they were lofty and awesome, and the rims of all four of them were full of eyes round about. 19 Whenever the living beings moved, the wheels moved with them. And whenever the living beings rose from the earth, the wheels rose also.

??? heaven is "just above our heads"??

??
Who put them on the no fly list ?

And who would dare tell one they were not allowed on ? (one angel killed 186,000 soldiers in one night, remember !?)

 

[BobRyan]

The fact that in Genesis, the earth is made before the sun, moom and stars. .

Well the "sun and moon" anyway - because on day 4 only "2 great lights made" not a zillion-and-two.

What do you think the fiery chariot was that picked up Elijah?

 

[yeshuaslavejeff]

What do you think the fiery chariot was that picked up Elijah?

TWO ?
(not TWA)

T-wo W-wheeled O-bject

 

[Mountainmanbob]

I don't think that it was an alien.

Gen 1:16...he made the stars also.

Read Ezekiel 1

 

[Mountainmanbob]

What do you think it was?

Maybe my pastor has an idea but,
truthfully I'm not sure.
God does know for sure.

Read Ezekiel 1

does not say "heaven is located just above our heads"

Genesis 18 says God and two angels were seated in Abraham's tent eating a meal... does not mean the heaven is located inside a tent in the middle east.

But, to someone on the ground, it would have been a UFO.

It was not from New Jersey.. but as you say once you discount the fact that Angels are aliens... then looking for 'what is left' as aliens being described in the bible is limited to a very few lines.

 

[yeshuaslavejeff]

But, to someone on the ground, it would have been a UFO.

Why ?
If I saw a fiery chariot carrying a prophet (or a little child of Yahweh) ,
I would just call it a fiery chariot !

Like the BIBLE DOES !

not unidentified at all !

Well, now, then - Jesus told others the the Kingdom of God (heaven) was in their midst already (people living on earth). Even in their hearts I think may be brought up ... wherever Yahweh Rules..... ESPECIALLY WHEN YAHWEH or YAHUSHUA is present.

Other footnote though - also is not "heaven" translated from a word that simple means SKY ? (i.e. the sky above our heads) at times ?

Ezekiel look up through the raqia and saw Jesus on or above His throne.

I'm not sure you would know if it was a fiery chariout unless you were awfully close. I'm visualizing something like an Roman Chariot with a contrail at 5000 feet...would scare the bejabbers out of people that had never seen an airplane.
