  • 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.

UFO sighting?

A couple of nights ago, two F16 jets scrambled over DC after something was deteced on radar; apparently they were these blue/white balls of light travelling at top speed with the US jets hot on their trail. They disappeared as quickly as they had come. Hundreds who heard and saw this event phoned a radio station confirming that "something" had happened there, but the government is saying nothing. Interesting note: exactly fifty years ago, to the date, this event (blue and white balls of light) occured over DC.

Needless to say, I've been looking out my window and studying Ezekiel.
*wink wink*

well, I thought about that. And if this is moved to the news forum, that is okay. But, there are many ways this topic could be split via/ phophecy, so I hope it stays here. This is what I'm thinking:

1) We are told to watch, that there will be signs in the heavens; the sun, the stars, the moon.
2) Ezekiel was written as prophecy for coming generations, including us? (notice how he is greeted- chapter one)
3) We are warned about the antichrist who will decieve even the elect through wonders and miracles. Since he is cast from heaven (and his time is short) wouldn't he make a grand entrance /via heavens?
4) Jesus says that the Kingdom of heaven doesn't come through observation, yet we are told that every eye shall see him, COMING IN THE CLOUDS.

We don't know whats out there; we don't even know whats at the bottom of the ocean. I am not referring to the Hollywood UFO types, but that there are things that are left unexplained. I chose to use the DC sighting as a way to open up a discussion about this subject.

How would the world react if and only IF someone or something announced itself and said, "I am Jesus Christ."

Should we accept that as a possibility, and perhaps discuss and educate ourselves on what to believe should that ever happen?

sincerely,
Wildfire

Wildfire,
I heard about that story as well. As you might already be aware, there are several websites out there that link UFOs to the end times.

Specifically, the ones I've read most recently, say that the "aliens" are actually demonic beings who have existed throughout the world's history, taking on many different forms.

It also talks about exactly what you mentioned, GraftMein... how there is a huge following today that are part of the New Age movement, that believe the "aliens" were our creators and that they will be our salvation. They take God out of the creation, and Jesus out of the salvation. :cry:

I don't have the links handy right this moment, otherwise I would post them. If anyone is interested, just send me a private message and I'll get them to you. ;)

Wildfire:

Search for and study the natural phenomenon

of 'ball lightining'.  This is an odd form of lightning

that appears in ball form, can float, travel at high

speeds (depending upon atmospheric conditions)

and even reverse directions.  It has been observed

at ground level, (can even travel through walls

in your house) thus mistakened for a 'ghost' as

you might imagine.  It has also been observed at

high altitudes by airline passengers and pilots.

It is trackable as radar.  I can't say this

is what was observed, but is a scientific explanation

for what was observed.

Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
Many will come in Gods name trying to decieve us.

 

Yes, many deceivers are among us. AMEN

Consider what UFO is an acronym for...

Unidentified Flying Object...just simply that.

If anyone has ever seen an object, flying through

the atmosphere and couldn't identify what it was...

It naturally falls into this category.  This ISN"T

to say it was a spaceship...it simply sais...

I SAW SOMETHING...I COULDN'T DETERMINE WHAT

IT WAS.

People watch too much TV and take science FICTION

for fact.  Consider the mass panic caused by the radio

broadcast hoax stating we had been 'Invaded by Martians'

broadcast in the 50's.

Hmm, but Ezekial's whirlwind of light was amber, not blue. And it seemed to be a single light, not a cluster of little lights.

"Then I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud with raging fire engulfing itself; and brightness was all around it and radiating out of its midst like the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire. " Ez. 1:4

I know what you mean about Unidentified Objects. I joke with my husband about them everytime I see something in the air I can't identify lol! It could be anything from a weed seed, a type of bug, etc.....

I also point out other UFO's that may appear on the water sometimes. I refer to them as another acronym for Unidentified Floating Objects.

I wonder why all reported alien sightings abductions

usually originate from some farmer in the middle of nowhere?

If aliens are among us...or just visiting..

WHY don't they make a grand appearance....

like say...a major city...popular Live TV show,

(HEY...an alien visitation on the Big Brother

series would be AWESOME)
