OK, I'll come back to UFOs. I've believed for years that they are a satanic deception, but only recently have been paying attention to how they are probably designed for a particular objective to unfold in the times of the Antichrist. This is related to the doctrine of the "Ascended Masters" that was originally taught by the 19th and early 20th century spiritualists and satanists like Madame Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and Alistair Crowley. These "Ascended Masters" are demons who conveyed their doctrines to Blavatsky at least and maybe also Bailey (I haven't followed all the details of this).

They aren't considered by the believers in this stuff to be demons of course, but superior beings, extraterrestrials who are supposed to have planted the seeds of the human race at some time in the past and have been watching over us and are probably going to appear in some form in the last days because we "need help" or something like that. Among New Agers apparently this idea has been continuing, especially since some of them do "channel" (are possessed by) demonic spirits who continue to preach the same old doctrines of demons. The number of people who are possessed by demons in this world has probably increased enormously since the 60s and 70s.

A Course in Miracles that Oprah Winfrey has been sponsoring on daily radio broadcasts since the first of this year is supposed to be an example of the superior wisdom of these superior beings -- Stuff like: You are the source of your own salvation, Jesus came not to die for us but to teach us wisdom, we aren't sinners so the idea of an atonement for sin is ridiculous and childish, and various other similar blasphemies.

I've been getting this mostly from Scott Johnson's talks which he posts at Sermon Audio. I know some of his stuff is pretty far out but he provides plenty of documentation, and even if some of it is off the wall or turns out to be false I'm sure he's on the right track. If even part of it is true as he teaches it, the signs and wonders that will probably suddenly burst upon this planet are going to take our breath away.

He also believes that the Nephilim of the Bible are somehow involved in this, the "mighty men of old" who were the offspring of angels and humans. He tracks what the media are doing, TV programs -- stuff most of us probably have never heard of, at least I hadn't -- that are promoting characters that are nonhuman or part human.

No need here to get into the specifics, I guess, you can always go and listen to Johnson's talks. The point is that UFOs are most likely part of the great delusion that is coming on the earth, when all the world except those who are the Lord's will follow the Antichrist, who will preside over some amazing "revelation" of things most people have never even thought about but is really a massive satanic deception.

So the fiction will be that UFOs are these benevolent beings who have been spying on us and supposedly have our best interests at heart and so on and so forth, and maybe have even been involved in genetic experiments so that there will be a return of the Nephilim. I don't know how much of the specifics we can know in advance, but it seems like a good idea to have in mind that some kind of spectacular strange phenomena are in the devil's plans and abilities for the near future, and UFOs are a part of them.

Of course God is in charge of all of it. It is God who is going to bring the strong delusion on those who will believe in all this. But we should be praying and probably fasting, stepping up our pleas to the unsaved, and learning how to keep our armor well fastened if we are to be here for any of it.
