O.K. I have a serious question for all my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. It is about UFO's and all the stuff you see on television about military cover ups and so on, etc..............

If UFO's exist, are they mentioned in the Bible? Lately there has been a lot of documentaries about ancient Egypt civilization and how they must have gotten their knowledge from aliens...................does anyone, meaning Christians take this seriously?

I don't know what to make of all of this and some times I feel like it is deception from satan? Any thoughts?

Is there mention of life on other planets in the form of aliens in the Bible? I just can't reconcile myself to it but these documentaries I feel are messing up my head. Does anyone else feel the same way?

In Genesis it says what and how and who he created, nothing about life forms, like aliens. We just recently had this subject in CC bible study. In the six days he created everything it now say about them.

God is Good

Yay

Thank you for responding so quickly. I did not realise CC was having a Bible study on this very thing! It has really messed with my head. That is when I feel like it is a deception.

So what are these people seeing then in the skies? Is it natural occuring phenomenon, for example like the northern lights? What about these people claiming alien abductions and such? Are they suffering from serious delusions?

Also those documentaries talk about how these ancient civilizations carved run ways and a giant hummingbird that can only be seen from the air and yet during the time period they did not fly? Is this deception or does anyone have any ideas?

Maybe he did create more planets, but since there is no reason for us to know or bother with them he never told us.

I mean seriously to have the belief that we are the only sentient lifeform in an infinite day is nothing but pride, foolishness, and self centeredness

I have pondered the idea, "What if?" Meaning is there other life on other planets, are they visiting us, but then did they need Jesus too? Did Jesus have to die for them too? I wonder. Am I the only one that wonders these things?

The late Lutheran theologian Krister Stendahl (Dean Emeritus of Harvard Divinity School) maintained that the existence of alien life would serve only to further glorify their Creator.

You might want to check out Krister Stendahl on Wikipedia and while you're at it, try googling - and read - his lovely essay entitled, "Why I love the Bible."

I wasn't responding to you, and if you have different believes or ideas that is fine, but to say those of us, me being one that do believe this is nothing but pride, foolishness and self centeredness is rather judging on your part.

Who are you to say that those of us who believe this are prideful, foolishness and self centered ?

Jesus is with me.

God is my judge.

Greetings sensitive,

I think that it's important to distinguish between the two, UFO's and Aliens :). I think that numerous things could be classified as Unidentified Flying Objects. A common question is: Is the former from another planet? No. The majority of 'UFO's' that have abnormal flight patterns, and experience G-loads that an average aircraft would disintegrate under, can be attributed to the Government (which Gov't, I don't know) or the Air Force. Anti-Gravity technology is nothing new. A famous proponent for anti-gravity technology is an inventor by the name of Nikola Tesla, his numerous innovations involving electro-magnetic energy helped develop the first anti-gravitational technology. He was famous for saying that Albert Einstein stole many of his inventions from numerous scientists while working at a patent office, and that the 'theory of relativity' was invented many years prior. After his death Germany illegally appropriated his findings and discoveries, using all of this technology as a means to help conquer the world. Numerous U.S. aircraft pilots reported seeing this technology during the end of WWII. These UFO's were thus labeled "foo-fighters".

Concerning Aliens, I would attribute the sightings to the Spiritual realm. I have talked with individuals that have experienced Alien encounters. Interestingly enough, a common denominator that was consistent with these people was that their experiences were extremely horrifying, never pleasant and that the people who experienced these encounters were all unbelievers. In conclusion, I would attribute the sightings of Aliens as some sort of Demonic manifestation. As far as life on other plants, I would say, that would be relatively impossible unless specifically designed by the Most High.

I don't rule out the possibility of something living on other planets, but I don't believe in aliens created in Gods image
(meaning: maybe there are animals out there, as they were not created in his image).

so, I do not think UFOs are aliens. I think a good deal is natural phenomena, and that the rest is either imagination (I myself have seen people that weren't present, so why wouldn't people se lights that aren't there?). - or planes. Not saying the government is spying and doing all sorts of things, but they ARE testing new aircrafts when they do build them (I hope...)

The postings and replies have been very helpful. I have to agree that the people that talk of encounters all relate horrifying experiences so I am inclined to believe that is demonic activity, fallen angels, definitely NOT of God. God does not terrify us. I do remember one of Jesus prophesy was that there would be signs in the sky? I wonder sometimes if these things fit in with that prophecy. Here is a thought too, my husband asked the question when we talk about this together, "If our government or a government has come up with this technology, this advanced, how come the war is still going on?" He brought out the point that with that far advanced technology we would have already had this war over and done with? Same thing during the previous wars? I have read about Tesla and I do believe they have some very highly classified technology they we may never know anything about but then it still begs the question, "If we have this technology, why the long wars?"

Why long wars? to test the new technology of course and find out how effective it is against enemy combatants...i mean really its like a whole army of test subjects

No, I think my husband has a valid point. If we truly possess this knowledge, how come we haven't been able to end the war? Think about what eye witnesses including pilots have testified to seeing: Aircraft that could jump in a mere second from one point in the sky to another? Think of the things we could have done during all of the wars with this technology, IF we truly possess it?

First of all, I don't know what war you're talking about. But - things that are just in the testing stage don't go into battle areas for many years, not to mention that they might not even be combat oriented vehicles.

On the subject of UFOs, there have been studies done that show that most UFO sightings coincide with testings of military/weather equipment (i.e., people aren't seeing aliens). Imagine if you saw this:

in the 1970s. The chances of you thinking it was an "alien spacecraft" would be high, and that's what happens a lot.

On the subject of Aliens, I agree with Banister. There are an estimated 200 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, and there are an estimated 100-200 billion galaxies in the observable universe. Theoretically, the universe could really be much larger. However, even in the observable universe, that makes a total of an estimated 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stars in the observable universe. Our star, the sun, has 9 planets that orbit it, and it is estimated that some stars could have more (and others less of course). When you look at these figures, the chance that there is NOT life somewhere else in the universe is slim to none.

If you seriously think that God twiddled his thumbs for infinity before creating us humans, and made all of the other stars and galaxies in the entire universe to just look pretty for us at night, then yeah, I think that is pretty arrogant and closed-minded.

I agree your husband may have a point...but war is a very very profitable business. There are just as many reasons not to end the war as there are to end it. Maybe more.

Well, they are 'messing with your head'. They will put ANYTHING on TV that will keep you turning it on. It's purely for entertainment purposes. If there were aliens from other planets, there would be no way it would remain a secret. The TV people play on our sense of fear and our desire for mysteries.

If there is life on other planets, stars, or whatever because yes God could have created anything He wants, have you ever wondered was this other life created in HIS image like Adam was? If not then well that just opens up a whole other thread. If not human, or made in God's image, then what?

I had not thought about war being considered profitable? What a horrible thought, but I guess it has happened in the past. Pilots reported seeing UFO's in the sky while fighting against Hitler. So this incredible technology if our government has it, has been around for a while.

Could these eye witness sightings from Pilots and other well respected people be fulfilling these prophecies? Consider these scriptures and tell me what you think:

Luke 21:25And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
Luke 21:11And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
