Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

Aliens could also be from the future!



A common theory is that the most likely intelligence "out there" is actually machine in nature..... Starting with a biological creature who created these machines, which in turn rebelled and took over.

Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

[QUOTE=ChristopherHall;397024]I personally don’t believe in “alien” beings from other planets.

In my opinion they’re spiritual delusions projected upon the mind by demonic beings. I’m confident that if you rebuked one in the name of Jesus it would vanish like a bad dream. In ancient legends “spirits” would travel the sky in ships of light, abduct people, give them shamanistic powers. Today they appear to be “space brothers” with a message that contradicts the gospel, they give people psychic powers, etc. It seems like the same ol’ girl different dress.

That’s just my opinion.

But if I were to encounter one and it was real…I’d baptize the little green dude in Jesus name.[/QUOTE]


There is much we don't know. What we do know, however, is that if there are "aliens" they will one day bow at the feet of Jesus, and confess that he is Lord.

Then we can form an Intergalactic Federation of Apostolics (IFA).

Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

I have to also add that I DO NOT believe that aliens have visited us. There could be a very good reason that thousands and millions of light years separate us from any other civilization, and that is to remove any possibility of our cultures or species interacting.

Anybody who has ever seen more than 30 seconds of Rosie O'Donnell on television has to believe in aliens. There is no way she is human.

I believe there are aliens, and that they post on, or used to in some cases, this forum.


Other than that, no I don't think there are. I think we're all she wrote.

Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

If you have ever been to a Planetarium or seen the beginning ofthe movie "Contact" I think once you realize just how small the earth and our solar system is in the Universe you realize it would be foolish to think that earth is the only planet with living creatures that God created.

Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

Jesus was an alien from outer space. He said ' I am not of this world. I am from above, you are from below. He said His kingdom was not of this world.

Yes, there is life in outer space, it's called the spirit world. As to other humans on another planet in another solar system? Sure, if God made us, don't you think he made others? Why would he just limit his power to one planet?

Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

Why is that foolish?

I don't think you can Biblically resolve that.

Re: Do You Believe There are Aliens?

Yes, there are "aliens". I was one. I have proof:

Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

But seriously, folks:

Of the millions of stars in the universe, being orbited by an unknown number of planets, I believe the chances of "alien" life is very real. What form that life takes is anyones guess, but yes, I do believe in the possibilty that life exists elsewhere. Have they visited earth? No. I think most of the "sightings" are either active imaginations, optical allusions, explainable objects (planes, weather balloons", etc.). Spirits? I think not.

As a side note: Remember on Star Trek when they would travel to distant worlds and refer to the beings they encountered as "aliens"? I wonder why it never occurred to Captain Kirk and the crew of the USS Enterprise that is was they, themselves, who were the "aliens".
