you - your Bible - and aliens from outer space

[Hieronymus]

[BobRyan]

The idea that "the entire universe of zillions of planets is empty except for Earth" is a leftover from the dark ages.

People who say that don't claim to have been there -- they simply state a guess, a preference. Modern science no longer supports it - and the Bible does not support it.

 

[BobRyan]

Seen any demons disguised as aliens? Neither has anyone else.

I haven't seen any demons showing up in the form of dead ancestors or friends either. Does that mean they never do it??? really?

I've seen no reliable reports of that, either. We make out own ghosts. (and "orbs" and "rods" and chupacabras and all such silliness.) Ever watch any of those idiotic"ghost hunter" shows? Good grief...

 

[NothingIsImpossible]

People who believe in this stuff I notice tend to be newer in faith. The bible said He created everything including us, the animals...etc. Not once did He mention creating another planet with life. And the bible says the universe was created to show us His power (so to speak).

(thanks - a helpful point of reference.)

And did you also "not see it" in 1 Sam 28?

i don't really think nor care if there are aliens or not.

If God created them and they exist then it is in God's plan.

If not and they do not exist, then they do not exist.

So either way it does not bother me.

We know from 2 Thess 2 - that Satan will be freed up to work with "all power and signs and lying wonders" as we approach the end of the world.

Key word: "lying."

Just because it's not mentioned doesn't mean that He didn't though. The Bible is the message to us, and He very well could have had a similar or even different message for His other creations on other planets if they do in fact exist.

But considering the rise of supernatural phenomenon and movies/tv shows/books that promote the topic, especially aliens, it IS quite important, especially for Christians...

"Did you know?
More people in the US believe Aliens have visited earth than believe Jesus is the son of God? 77% for aliens compared to 68% for Jesus.

23% of people in Russia believe aliens will contact earth in the next 50 years.

40% of people in India and China believe aliens walk among us.

25% of children in the UK believe some humans are aliens in disquise, while 64% believe in aliens in general. 51% of adults surveyed in the UK believe in aliens while only 25% believed in God.

Approximately 20% of people in the entire world believe in aliens.

Numerous countries such as Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia and Japan, along with many others have acknowledged at least in part the existence of UFOs"

The Bible has stated He created everything for us. So that would mean for us, as in humans on earth. Not aliens. I don't believe aliens exist. Maybe theres some sort of micro bacteria type of life somewhere, but thats about it.

Aliens as in extraterrestrial biological entities I do not believe exist...Angels and demons do and angels were made just a slight bit 'higher' on the creation scale based on Psalm 8:5 and Hebrews 2:7 that man was made 'a little lower than angels"...
which means they can move about more, and plus their abode is in heaven with God (angels) or in the atmosphere and immediate vicinity of earth (demons - principalities and powers)...

Humans are confined to a physical form whereas angels enjoy a spiritual body that can manifest as physical if need be, verified by many Bible passages...Angels can appear and disappear at will, teleport and do all kind of cool stuff.

SOME humans have experienced these things but it rare and very difficult, and also can have consequences....Bible examples are Jesus walking through wall, Enoch and Elija being taken/teleported, raptured or whatever (some UFO people say they were abducted by aliens too), and maybe a few other examples where humans experienced phenomenon that usually only angels can do. I'd say the 3 kids in Daniel thrown into the firey furnace and surviving without a burn also counts...

My faith is in the Lord and His Word through the Bible.

I am really not interested in aliens, nor do they affect my faith in God.

I know many others believe other things, but why is that important for me and my faith?

We know from the Bible that Angels are not from earth and there are good ones... and there are evil ones. And they are both here among us.

We know from 2 Thess 2 - that Satan will be freed up to work with "all power and signs and lying wonders" as we approach the end of the world.

2 Thess 2
8 Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming; 9 that is, the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders, 10 and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved.

We know that God alone can create life - yet Satan was able to make it "appear" to Pharaoh that his "magicians" could turn sticks into snakes (in illusion) - just as Moses did via the power of God in real life.

Satan's art, deception and science is far older than 6000 years. It is beyond question that he can totally flummox man's science.

In 2Thess 2 Satan is the master illusionist on the stage - and mankind the mere sheeple in the audience - not a chance of outsmarting the group that is on stage.

Rev 13 describes it this way -
"11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon. 12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men. 14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who *had the wound of the sword and has come to life. 15 And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even speak and cause as many as do not worship the image of the beast to be killed"


===================== by contrast

In modern ufology - there is no God, no trustworthy Bible, no devil -- just mankind, evolutionism and aliens who are mostly friendly and they seem to want to come to earth at times and do aerial tricks in the sky for us.

as Christians we should not be so easily duped into going along with that counterfeit story line they offer.

So then it does not matter if we are talking about evolution, or confronted with supposed spirits of the dead, or the wild claims of the UFO groups that present a story about aliens that is also not compatible with the Bible.

My faith is in the Lord and His Word through the Bible.

I am really not interested in aliens, nor do they affect my faith in God.

I know many others believe other things, but why is that important for me and my faith?

Is it important to christian young people whether they 'believe in' evolution or not when they go to the University and are swamped by science, religion, philosophy classes all pedaling evolutionism?

Is it important to the neighbor who gets invited to a 'meeting' where they will be supposedly enabled to contact a dead loved one??

Is it important to the zillion-1 eye-witnesses all over the world who claim to have encountered something like a UFO - what they "believe" prior to that encounter?

Was it important to "Eve" to know whether Satan could appear in the form of a serpent prior to meeting him?

Rev 13 says that the whole thing is pretty much "fatal" for the earth -

Rev 13 describes it this way -
"11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon. 12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men. 14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who *had the wound of the sword and has come to life. 15 And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even speak and cause as many as do not worship the image of the beast to be killed"

in Christ,

Bob

I have still much to say to you, but it is beyond your reach as yet.

Is it so shameful to say "we don't know"? We're limited human beings. Is our work of the Spirit complete on this Earth? If not maybe we don't need to worry about other Earths quite yet.

The same could be said about events 60 million years ago or 3.5 billion years ago - and evolution - until the christian student arrives at the university and suddenly finds his faith in Bible creation doctrines shaken.

The same could be said about dead loved ones coming back for a "visit" until that neighbor describes seeing their dead relative and how they talked with them. -- king Saul finds this out "the hard way" in 1Sam 28 when going to the witch of Endore he asks her "conjure up for me by thy familiar spirit - whomever I shall name".

The same could be said to Eve about 'Angels in heaven in rebellion' -- until she met that talking serpent.

the same could be said by Catholics until they find out that their own Catholic Jesuit leadership fully promotes the aliens-from-space story-line.

Rev 13 describes it has an almost total win for the devil in the end.

"11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon. 12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence.

'Angels in heaven in rebellion' -- until she met that talking serpent ... Catholics until they find out that their own Catholic Jesuit leadership fully promotes the aliens-from-space story-line.

I'm not sure why those things should shake the faith of any Christian.
