If aliens exist, does that nullify Christianity?

Posted on by elizabethprata

That s the question of the hour from the big thinkers. This article today from Space.com

Are Aliens Part of God’s Plan, Too? Finding E.T. Could Change Religion Forever
“The discovery of intelligent aliens would be mind-blowing in many respects, but it could present a special dilemma for the world’s religions, theologians pondering interstellar travel concepts said Saturday (Oct. 1). Christians, in particular, might take the news hardest, because the Christian belief system does not easily allow for other intelligent beings in the universe, Christian thinkers said at the 100 Year Starship Symposium, a meeting sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to discuss issues surrounding traveling to other stars. In other words, “Did Jesus die for Klingons too?” as philosophy professor Christian Weidemannof Germany’s Ruhr-University Bochum titled his talk at a panel on the philosophical and religious considerations of visiting other worlds.” more at link

A ‘special dilemma’? LOL. ‘Religious considerations of visiting other worlds?’ “I come in peace. Take me to your pastor.” ROFL

First of all, extra-terrestrials DO exist. Off- earth, intelligent life, having superior capabilities than humans, a higher intellect, and a raised vibration even, are all around us. They visit the earth every day. They are angels.

The article continues:

“Aliens and religion can still coexist”

“Weidemann, a self-described protestant Christian, suggested some possible solutions. Perhaps extraterrestrials aren’t sinners, like humans, and therefore aren’t in need of saving. However, the principle of mediocrity — the idea that your own example is most likely typical unless you have evidence to the contrary — casts doubt on this, he pointed out. “If there are extraterrestrial intelligent beings at all, it is safe to assume that most of them are sinners too,” Weidemann said. “If so, did Jesus save them too? My position is no. If so, our position among intelligent beings in the universe would be very exceptional. “Another possibility is that God incarnated multiple times, sending a version of himself down to save each inhabited planet separately.”

Oh, the tragedy of the lost Christians. Truly. GotQuestions answers the issue of aliens (non-angelic kind)

“So, what does the Bible say? The earth and mankind are unique in God’s creation. Genesis 1 teaches that God created the earth before He even created the sun, the moon, or the stars. Acts 17:24, 26 states that “the God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands…he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.”

“Originally, mankind was without sin, and everything in the world was “very good” (Genesis 1:31). When the first man sinned (Genesis 3), the result was problems of all sorts, including sickness and death. Even though animals have no personal sin before God (they are not moral beings), they still suffer and die (Romans 8:19-22). Jesus Christ died to remove the punishment that we deserve for our sin. When He returns, He will undo the curse that has existed since Adam (Revelation 21–22). Note that Romans 8:19-22 states that all of creation eagerly waits for this time. It is important to also note that Christ came to die for mankind and that He died only once (Hebrews 7:27; 9:26-28; 10:10).”

“If all of creation now suffers under the curse, any life apart from the earth would also suffer. If, for the sake of argument, moral beings do exist on other planets, then they also suffer; and if not now, then someday they will surely suffer when everything passes away with a great noise and the elements melt with fervent heat (2 Peter 3:10). If they had never sinned, then God would be unjust in punishing them. But if they had sinned, and Christ could die only once (which He did on earth), then they are left in their sin, which would also be contrary to the character of God (2 Peter 3:9). This leaves us with an unsolvable paradox—unless, of course, there are no moral beings outside of the earth.”

“What about non-moral and non-sentient life forms on other planets? Could algae or even dogs and cats be present on an unknown planet? Presumably so, and it would not do any real harm to any biblical text. But it would certainly prove problematic when trying answer questions like “Since all of creation suffers, what purpose would God have in creating non-moral and non-sentient creatures to suffer on distant planets?”

“In conclusion, the Bible gives us no reason to believe that there is life elsewhere in the universe. In fact, the Bible gives us several key reasons why there cannot be. Yes, there are many strange and unexplainable things that take place. There is no reason, though, to attribute these phenomena to aliens or UFOs. If there is a discernable cause to these supposed events, it is likely to be spiritual, and more specifically, demonic, in origin.”

Alien contact COULD be dangerous, Hawking says? No, it WILL be

Posted on by elizabethprata

Does it seem like all of a sudden the news is all about Aliens, UFO’s, and the search for life that originated off this planet? It is not your mind playing tricks on you. It is news of the highest sort that is reaching the populace’s ears and eyes, from established media outlets like CNN and the BBC, and from NASA, the National Aeronautical and Space Administration. Within the last week:

NSA to amp up search for extra-terrestrial life
Alien life is making news lately, and now NASA looks to lead the charge.

NASA Announces Wednesday Media Teleconference About Search For Extraterrestrial Life
NASA will hold a news media teleconference at 1:30 p.m. EDT, Wednesday, April 28, to discuss the status of agency-sponsored astrobiology research, including the search for evidence of extraterrestrial life and the study of how life began on Earth. Topics also will include the quest for evidence of life on Mars, the habitability of other celestial bodies, and future technology research.

Should we fear space aliens?
Physicist Steven Hawking says making contact with alien life could be dangerous … Stephen Hawking’s new documentary premiered Sunday night on the Discovery Channel. In it, he claimed that intelligent alien life almost certainly exists and that the search for it is valuable. He also suggested that the potential threats posed by contact with alien intelligence should discourage us from actively sending out messages to the cosmos.

Aliens have been here for 50 years (this was originally broadcast in 2008 but it is surfacing on Youtube in a big way in the wake of the recent discussion from Dr. Stephen Hawking about aliens on the Discovery Channel)
CNN Wolf Blitzer: A group gathering here in DC to discuss their UFO sightings, but it’s no crackpot convention, former are high-level govt an military officials sharing what they’ve seen in the skies. Tell us about it Gary: Gary Tuchman: a panel discussion within the beltway to discuss what might be happening in the Milky Way… have extraterrestrials visited us here here on earth? 14 men from 7 different countries participated in a panel discussion…One participant says, “We want the US Government to stop perpetuating the myth that all UFOs can be explained away in down to earth and conventional terms. Instead our country needs to reopen its official investigation that is shut down in 1969.”

LUCIFER instrument helps astronomers see to the most distant observable stars
A new instrument with an evil-sounding name is helping scientists see how stars are born. Lucifer, which stands for (deep breath) “Large Binocular Telescope Near-infrared Utility with Camera and Integral Field Unit for Extragalactic Research,” is a chilled instrument attached to a telescope in Arizona. And yes, it’s named for the Devil, whose name itself means “morning star.” But it wasn’t meant to evoke him, according to a spokesman for the University of Arizona, where it is housed. Lucifer is part of the Large Binocular Telescope, which happens to be right next to the Vatican Observatory on Mt. Graham in Tucson. That’s right, the Vatican has an observatory in Arizona, manned by Jesuit astronomers. Now its next-door neighbor is named for the Devil.

Pradeep Mallik writes in the Achmedabad Mirror, “Stephen Hawking’s remarks on the existence of aliens have set the tongues and fingers of scientists and amateurs wagging. People are watching keenly the television programme that has one of the most celebrated theoretical physicists of our times taking people on an odyssey through time and space, and cyber chatterati are busy blogging and discussing his views that any contact with aliens is fraught with danger for us on the earth. … Hawking’s counsel comes from his mathematical deduction that aliens do exist. The real challenge, he says, is to find out what they might actually be like. The alien life forms might not be the kind of neighbours that people on the earth have been looking for — intelligent and friendly.”

Of all the folks opining about the current alien brouhaha, Mallik has it right and Hawking has it right- but for reasons they have no clue about. Mathematical deductions aside, there IS intelligent life that exists off this planet, has visited this planet, and is not friendly. That’s because they are demons, commonly known as fallen angels. You know, the ones who sided with Lucifer in the times of yore.

It should not be surprising that people are ready to accept the myth that it is light-bringing aliens who exist, not demons. Satan deceives the whole world (Rev 12:9). No wonder, for satan disguises himself as an angel of light (2 Cor 11:14) Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, (2 Cor 11:15). We are so obviously being pre-programmed to accept the ‘beings’ soon to irrupt into the world and make false claims that they are superior and helpful. What could be more convenient and wanted by an evil devil than a populace that is ready to accept the notion that higher beings exist, when it comes time to bombard the earth after the restrainer is taken out of the way?

For when the Holy Spirit is taken out of the way, His ministry of restraint will cease. God took the Restrainer out of the way at the last world-wide judgment, before the flood. (Genesis 6:3) Imagine this globe, already evil, then having no restraint in morals, violence, or Christian ethic?

If one doubts the attempts to pre-program the populace to accept softening language around the notion of the devil, just read this caption regarding the LUCIFER telescope:

“Courtesy of Lucifer: This image depicts a stellar nursery in the Milky Way about 8,000 light years from Earth. Such clouds are typically opaque to visible light, but infrared light can penetrate them. The Lucifer instrument helps telescopes see that light. The E and N signify east and north. credit Anna Pasquali/via University of Arizona”.

Lucifer is NOT courteous nor is he helpful, but the caption containing those words in conjunction with Lucifer, is telling. The devil’s name means Light, and we already know from the 2 Corinthians verse he disguises himself as an angel of light and so do his evil followers. Many of the sightings thus far have been of disks of light. There’s the Phoenix Lights. There’s the Yakima Lights, where a scientists states “The most common UFO seen at Yakima is the Ball of Light or Sphere of Light. These balls are typically orange in color or white in color, and are seen hovering or moving slowly. They appear to be inquisitive.”

As Chuck Missler wrote of the verses in Genesis 6 which mention the fallen angels’ entry into earth after the flood, “Another reason that an understanding of Genesis 6 is so essential is that it also is a prerequisite to understanding (and anticipating) Satan’s devices and, in particular, the specific delusions to come upon the whole earth as a major feature of end-time prophecy:

Luke 21:26 —
men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

2 Thessalonians 2:9 —
that is, the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders,

2 Thessalonians 2:11 —
For this reason)God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false,

Do not be deceived! Not everything supernatural is from God!

‘Alien landing’ prank causes panic in Jordan

Posted on by elizabethprata

The BBC reports:

“The mayor of Jafr, 185 miles east of Jordan’s capital Amman, is considering suing a newspaper after their April Fools Day joke caused widespread panic. Jordanian paper Al-Ghad’s front-page story described flying saucers carrying ’10ft tall’ aliens had landing in the small desert town late at night. Jafr’s mayor, Mohammed Mleihan, described the disruption caused by the story: “Students didn’t go to school, their parents were frightened and I almost evacuated the town’s 13,000 residents,” Mr Mleihan told the Associated Press. He was swift to call in the security authorities, who he said then combed the area looking for the aliens. A Jordanian security official, speaking anonymously, said an emergency plan was almost enacted in Jafr. While it has become somewhat traditional across much of the world for newspapers to publish hoax articles on 1 April, it is not a common practice in Jordan. Managing editor of Al-Ghad, Moussa Barhoumeh, apologised for any inconvenience and tried to defuse the situation, saying “We meant to entertain, not scare people,”

1 Timothy 4:1,7a says “But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, … But have nothing to do with worldly fables fit only for old women.”

Note that the words at the beginning of the verse in the NASB are that the Spirit explicitly says. In the NIV it says the Spirit clearly says and in the KJV ‘the Spirit speaketh expressly‘. I think that it should be clear to us that God is emphasizing that it will be a time of incredibly heightened deception. I’ve been writing about how the last days are a time of increased deception. (here, here, here)  In this run-up to the coming of the lawless one, there will be counterfeit miracles, lying signs and wonders, and evil as stated by Paul to the Thessalonians. “The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” (2 Thess 2:9)

Jesus was even more clear in Matthew 24:24 “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. “We should not be ignorant of satan’s schemes, then, so as not to fall prey to the lies of the end times. (2 Cor 2:11)

So what are satan’s schemes and what are these upcoming deceptions? Well, satan schemes to get us to doubt the truth of God and His Word. He has since he planted the first seed of doubt first seed of doubt in the garden, in Genesis 3: he told Eve, “Has God said…?” If satan can get us to doubt God’s creation then we can doubt His Word. God did not make aliens. He made the angels and He made the animal kingdom and He made man after His own likeness. The bible does not record any other living things being created and living on other planets and interacting with us. If they were then that would mean they were affected by original sin and that Jesus died for them too. However the bible does not record anything to that effect.

The bible does record that there are beings from space who interact with humans, and those are the obedient angels, and the fallen angels. In pre-flood days, the fallen angels mated with human women, whom they thought beautiful, and the women bore their children. (“The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.” Gen 6:4). There are no “aliens” as traditionally thought.

As for the Jordanian town that was so scared by the alien report to the point of panic. One article says “mayhem” occurred. Imagine how receptive to the lie of aliens they were, for the mayor to be ready to evacuate an entire town and on the basis of one report! And the report being published on April FOOL’S DAY! They would have to been good and ready to accept the deulsion that aliens were abounding. They would have to have been predisposed that other life forms exist and interact with humans. These paradigms don’t just appear in people’s thoughts. They are just not immediately ready to accept the fact of other life forms so easily. People do not panic and make plans to evade these life forms so readily unless they are predisposed to readily believe a lie. These thoughts have to be planted in global consciousness and then grown, built, and when ready, fomented. By the looks of how easily panic was fomented in Jafr, stick a fork in us, we’re done.

Christian, do not be deceived by lying signs. Do not be so eagerly ready to accept reports of aliens, the fact of which contradicts the bible record. Leaders who are not saved are more and more jittery and more ready to accept lies than ever before- and their decisions impact us. We should not be ignorant of satan’s schemes. For Pete’s sake, the bible tells us outright that there will be lying signs and wonders. Stay strong in the Word and know what is planned for us since the foundation of the world. Not widespread panic, but widespread peace. Not aliens come to snatch us away, but Jesus come to rapture us away. Not aliens to attack us but angels to protect us. Your protection from lying signs and wonders, delusions and deceptions is the safety of forgiveness in Jesus, and His word of Truth. It’s a peaceful place to be.

Aliens are out there, we just can’t comprehend them

Posted on by elizabethprata

This caught my eye in the news media, UPI/ Daily Telegraph –

Aliens are out there, we just can’t comprehend them
LONDON, Feb. 22 (UPI) — The British queen’s astronomer says extraterrestrial aliens “could be staring us in the face” in a form we are simply unable to recognize. Martin Rees, president of the Royal Society science group and astronomer to Queen Elizabeth II, said after hosting the national science academy’s first conference extraterrestrial life in London that humans might not be able to recognize aliens even if they were looking right at them, The Daily Telegraph reported Monday. “They could be staring us in the face and we just don’t recognize them,” he said. “The problem is that we’re looking for something very much like us, assuming that they at least have something like the same mathematics and technology. “I suspect there could be life and intelligence out there in forms we can’t conceive. Just as a chimpanzee can’t understand quantum theory, it could be there as aspects of reality that are beyond the capacity of our brains,” Rees said.

Mr Rees is right. There are aliens out there (extra-terrestrial life) and we can’t comprehend them. There is life that lives off-planet. Angels, demons, and other angels that are so strangely described, we cannot comprehend them. Here is one example, “Then I looked, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of a man. And this was their appearance: they had human form. Each of them had four faces and four wings. Their legs were straight and their feet were like a calf’s hoof, and they gleamed like burnished bronze.” (Ez 8:2)

“Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.” (Dan 10:5-6)

Uh, I think I would be unable to recognize that. Even if it was staring me in the face.

Or these aliens, even stranger and incomprehensible, “Under their wings on their four sides were human hands. As for the faces and wings of the four of them, their wings touched one another; their faces did not turn when they moved, each went straight forward. As for the form of their faces, each had the face of a man; all four had the face of a lion on the right and the face of a bull on the left, and all four had the face of an eagle. Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above; each had two touching another being, and two covering their bodies.”

“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. Whenever they moved, they moved in any of their four directions without turning as they moved. As for their rims they were lofty and awesome, and the rims of all four of them were full of eyes round about.”

Mr. Rees is correct when he says: “I suspect there could be life and intelligence out there in forms we can’t conceive.” I just read that passage above from Ezekiel 10 and I can’t conceive of what they look like. A gyroscope rimmed with eyes, that floats? Reading Ezekiel 1 and 10’s descriptions of those off-planet dwellers, it is beyond the capacity of my brain to try and comprehend it.

God created life forms that don’t live on this planet, the very definition of aliens. However, the tragedy is, in the search for extra-terrestrial life, so many people fail to think of God’s “aliens.” Compared to His creativity in forming life forms, we are like chimps, unable to understand. It is a tragedy every time a news article reports something about aliens and the point of the article comes so close to the truth…but misses it. Their dwelling place, their form, and their function are so far above us as quantum theory is above a chimp is also accurate.

Do you see how cunningly satan has perverted the truth? Add a little manure to the notion of God’s off-planet dwellers and you have green ET’s instead of the glorious truth.
