Just Another UFO?





Just in time for Halloween!

Well, not really.  It's happened lots of times before,
at all different times of the year! 

So, what is it?



Helicopters Surround UFO???
October 25, 2017


Could it be multiple objects in the night sky,
or one massive object?

Could it be a new type of satellite?  A drone?

A new kind of military hardware being tested out?

A formation of aircraft?

An elaborate Internet hoax?

Or, is this evidence of something else, something
that even the so-called "experts" in the fields of space 
technology and astronomy cannot really explain to themselves, 
much less to the inquiring minds of millions of
people all over the world?


My own thoughts about this ever increasing phenomena
is, that while I am hearing more and more reports of strange things people 
are seeing in the skies these days, my own curiosity is tempered
with a healthy dose of skepticism, not to mention more than just
a modicum of caution.

The fact is, folks, we are not alone in the universe.
However, what many believe to be alien beings, or "higher life 
forms with superior intelligence" from other planets, you
 can forget about those friendly "little green men" from Mars,
or even cute little space critters like ET...

"E.T. The Extra Terrestrial"
(1982)


As much as I love this heartwarming fantasy about
a little boy named Elliot (Henry Thomas) who befriends
an alien stranded on the earth,  I know that this is not an
accurate portrayal of what is actually homing in and out 
 of the earth's atmosphere with more frequency
than ever before in these last of the last days.

If I had to pick a movie which better describes my feelings
concerning what a real alien encounter might be like here on earth,
it would undoubtedly be a film which I remember both fascinated
and frightened me whenever I watched it on television as a kid.


War Of The Worlds
(1953)


Although the situation in the screen adaptation
 of  the H.G. Wells' story, "The War of the Worlds" seemed hopeless, with
mankind left devastated in the brutal destruction of the earth by 
 alien invaders from Mars attacking in sophisticated, impenetrable space ships,
it was only when the survivors on earth cried out to Almighty God for His
help and protection that the merciless assault ended, with the alien ships
 falling out of the sky and crashing to the ground, leaving an eerie silence
in their wake.The survivors, whom had been gathered together
praying inside churches, poured out into the streets to discover
that the relentless hordes of extraterrestrial destroyers
 were suddenly and mysteriously dead.

 "The aliens had no resistance to the bacteria 
in our atmosphere to which we long
since have become immune," 
 the narrator of the movie,
 English actor Sir Cedric Hardwicke explained.
 Once they had breathed our air, germs,
 which no longer affect us began to kill them.
 The end came swiftly.
.All over the world, their machines began to stop and fall.
After all that men could do had failed, the martians were
destroyed and humanity was saved, by the littlest things,
which God, in His wisdom, had put upon the earth."

"...which God in His wisdom, had put upon the earth."

 This last statement always makes me want to cry.

After all human beings could do
 in their futile battle against these evil creatures,
 it was God who quickly and thoroughly destroyed them in the end.
 I often think today that if the people in this story had only turned to Him
 for the answer in the beginning, there would have been no
monsters from outer space attacking the earth in the first place!

Of course, it was only a movie!

 I believe, however, that what is
 being perceived these days as "close encounters"
with possible alien life forms from outer space,
 as recorded by video cameras worldwide,
 and later uploaded to the Internet,
are, in reality, evidence of an established, unholy hierarchy,
  or, what the apostle Paul called in his letter to the Ephesians,
"..the master spirits of wickedness in high places, 
who are the world rulers of this present darkness.."

The prideful enemy of the souls of mankind 
even boasted of this allegiance of evil in the Book of Job,
 when Satan came to be among the sons of God,
 or the angels, who had gathered before the 
throne of the Lord one day.
This surprise visit apparently took place after
the battle in heaven, when the devil and a third of his
like-minded followers were cast out.
 While the other angels gathered on this particular day
apparently failed to recognize him among their ranks,
 God certainly took notice of Satan's presence!

"And the Lord said to Satan, "From where did you come?
Then Satan answered the Lord, "From going to and fro on
the earth and from walking up and down on it."
Job 1:7

By his own admission, the murderer, the accuser 
of the brethren, the father of lies, and all that is false,
 has been here since the beginning of recorded time, not only
 setting up the principalities of his kingdom
 over the lives of men and nations,
 but, establishing a celestial throne of deceptive,
"spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly sphere" 
 as the apostle Paul warned us about in Ephesians 6:12.

In these uncertain days we are living in, believers
in Messiah need to stay alert and to keep their focus on Him.
Our faith in Jesus Christ alone is our victory!

Furthermore, the study of and meditation on
the priceless and infallible word 
 that God speaks through the Holy Bible
 is our best defense against the rampant forces
of deception at large in the world today,
especially with the significant increase
of questionable "signs and wonders"
 appearing in the heavens above.


"Look well to yourself and to your own personality
and to your teaching; persevere in these things,
hold to them, for by so doing you will save
both yourself and those who hear you."
1 Timothy 4:16
