I am in full agreement that space aliens are nothing more that demonic entities playing their silly games in order to delude people.
However, I worry about the emphasis placed on the pre-trib rapture by so many, obviously sincere and devout, Christians. I am no great theologian and I no longer subscribe to the health/wealth brigade, whome I regard as just as dangerous as the new age movement.
My two desires are that God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit will grant me wisdom and discernment in all things and a closer relationship with my Saviour.
I hope that the rapture (pre, mid or post tribulation) is indeed part of God's plan. But cannot help feeling that the biblical evidence is somewhat tenuous and has been seized upon by some as a sort of 'get out of jail free card'. My reason for this is what Jesus himself said about the last days in that '...for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened, least noone would survive'.
It makes me wonder what effect the lack of a rapture (pre or mid tribulation) would have on those people who were expecting it. Would they lose their faith? Would they blame God? Would they then buy the lie that aliens are real (not just demons) and abandon their faith completely?
Sounds to me like the sort of deception the enemy would use to lure the faithful into a false sense of security.
I enjoy your posts and please be assured that this reply is in no way a refutaion of what you have said. I have felt for some time that the subject of the rature is something that needs to be considered with great care and a great deal of prayer and guidance.
Bless you in the name Jesus.
The rapture will take a 144,000. That's 0.00013211% of the people.

The Harpadzo(rapture) has nothing to do with the Jews, who make up the 144,000. The 144,000 are likely post Trib. They are a remnant of Jews left in Israel after it is attacked by the Antichrist. That attack likely occurs after the Christians are gone. That is when the Jews realize that the Antichrist is Satanic, and that their Messiah (Yeshua) has come and gone. The 144,000 take the place of the missing church and evangelize the Earth.
Ive studied this extensively as has my dad (96 yr old genius , retired scientist, close to 90 years a Christian). I do believe in pretrib harpadzo, but I must also mention that there is also evidence for a mid trib (pre wrath trib). At this point, it appears that the whole tribulation will be completed by 2030-2033, which means rapture can occur any day between now and 2029.

A 109,000,000,000 humans have lived on planet earth. The rapture will take a 144,000. That's 0.00013211% of the people.
I've met some people who honestly thought they were better than everyone else and thought they were guaranteed to be in the rapture.
I don't talk to those people any more.
who do you think wrote this?

Were you to know UFO history from the early books, which obviously you don't know, you would know that the "rapture" the taking up of souls, was one of the first messages supposedly communicated to earthlings. (Sorry to sound like VP Harris.)
That message was given to contactees and even put into a new age bible, called The Urantia Book. I somewhat recall an earlier book back in the late 1880s called the Osphe, (maybe incorrect spelling) which told of something similar.[.
They were god-like beings in huge ships that periodically came to earth to harvest millions of souls that were stuck here. Perhaps there is a connection to the so-called Akashic Records concepts? (Sorry if I murdered the spelling to it also.)
'Careful who you call demons, ...or angels. Human perceptions are, after all, only human. What another being might convey to us is never necessarily true but certainly will serve its purpose. --Sorta like government, you know?

Hi
The short answer is no. Let me explain.....the church has and owns a monopoly on sensitive information that thex do not share with the piblic.. You will never get an audio or full copy of text from any Vatican exorcism.
Most spirituaö deliveries are quiet and not as severe.
Witnessing either event above will make you a believer. Become a deacon in a church where the pastor/priest do deliverance training and ask to hejp out as a prayer warrior.....quickest way I know....
The only other way I know how to prove this would be:
If you are willing to convince your local Bishop to send you to the Vatican University for exorcism training where you will see proof. They not only seek priest but lay people as well. They need priests, demonlogist, prayer warriors and mental health specialist. You will witness super natural events that cannot be explained by lay people.
If denied by Bishop there is plenty of training for Deliverance ministry.
I will be sending you a PM tomorrow.

Hi
Thanks for your posts. Not sure if you have read any of my previous threads.
I am a Vatican trained demonlogist who specializes in spiritual deliverance and I can tell you, angels and demons do exist. Many people have met Satan himself....like Mel Gibson, many people and so have I. And demons are scarier than Lucifer.
Lucifer does not reside in Hell. He resides in Geneva, Switzerland... His 5 kings in hell are running hell.
Here's a question though: In my opinion, most old texts are ways of deciphering modern technology and science with limited understanding. Who's to say that current day aliens weren't misconstrued as angels and/or demons back in the day? What if the Rapture is the beings that have performed genetic experiments over millennia coming back to pluck their favorites from the herd?
This demonic plan was made and known as far back as the Sumarians, and Vishnu, etc....
Lucifer has been planning this for milleniums...... he is not stupid. Dont forget he is a Cherub, not your everday fallen angel.. He helped in creation and is more intelligent than the smartest man ever (excluding Christ)
P.S. 20 years ago when Steven Greer was basically unknown, I used to conduct background investigations for him. I will leave it at that.

ETA:
Why would a supernatural entity, such as a demon, require a spacecraft?
And if they require such devices in order to operate in our universe/realm, doesn't that also make them susceptible to the physics and limitations of our universe?
