This does not necessarily explain "the sons of God" described in Genesis and
Job. Life on earth is amazingly complex, and we can assume life in "outer space"
among the "heavenly host" is also complex. Angels appear like young men, and
there are also serephim, cheribum, etc. The Bible describes each
group differently. There are also unclean spirits, and some are described like
frogs and birds in the Bible.
Bidwell: "The
alien abduction phenomenon is no mo! re than modern day demon possession."
Perhaps it is more complicated than that. The hybrid creatures described
in Genesis 6:4
may be what is happening. This differs from an unclean spirit or possession
by devils. Abduction and hybridization must be an interaction with something
physical, but otherworldly.
Bidwell: "The
Spirit of God and demons cannot co-exist in a person. One has to go and guess
who wins every time."
Peter was rebuked by Jesus who called him "Satan" and in 1
Corinthians 5:5 it says a person can be given over to Satan
to destroy his body -this means that Satan can kill a Christian if God allows
it. Satan can influence a Christian! 's mind, take away his health, kill him,
decieve him, and torment him, just like Paul's thorn in the flesh - "a messenger
of Satan to buffet me". There are Bible principles to follow for resisting the
Devil, but in general the only promise we know for all Christians (including
backsliders) is that God will preserve the spirit after death thus assuring
the salvation of a Christian's soul (1
Corinthians 5:5). Perhaps "possession" is too strong a word,
but Satan is very powerful, and only the Lord can actually rebuke him. See Jude 1:9.
Bidwell: "To
believe in advanced civilisations on distant planets one has to also accept
evolution to be true, another modern day deception."
Not necessarily, since if they exist God must have created them, and they could
not have evolved. Evolution myths told by UFO creatures are clearly the Devil's
lies.
Without vouching for everything out there (a lot is bogus), I think some of
the UFO stuff is probably real and related to Genesis 6:4.
