Atheism has very little appeal to the vast majority of people, so the search for the transcendent without God is always a deep desire across a broad spectrum of people. Paranormal stuff draws people in because that satisfies this deep desire and gives them a way out of the consequences of God's justice. Appreciate the consistently clear material Melissa creates
@indigatorveritatis7343 On point. Humans are unable to conform to be atheistic. We are all naturally believers by faith. Everyone believes in many things by faith. Some just cannot accept the concept of an omnipotent God but then attribute their faith to a lesser God. When interest turns to obsession, it's idolatry. The belief in a lesser God is idolatry.
Spirits of the air. Fr Seraphim Rose’s essay on sci fi and ufo’s as well as Jay Dyer and Fr Spyridon Bailey on the subject. I’m sure the upcoming “full disclosure” by the WEF on this subject will take advantage of everything the OP is saying to make a gnostic new world order religion. Might be part of why its been a “history” channel staple for decades now.
I keep commenting.... I had a close encounter when I was 16. I'm 66 now. I have studied this like crazy since then. it led me to study this for my Doctorate in apologetics. The church really needs to address this. 🤠
Would you be able to share your encounter? Even if short? Sounds like it had a huge impact. I've had huge impacts myself, more on the positive end, but a few occultic ones as well. Never a ufo though.
@@esq8 in fact I'm working on a podcast episode about it. Short version. It was late August 1972. I got home from work, took a shower, and was listening to some music on the radio, and playing with my dog. It was between 11 and midnight. I had school the next day. I put my dog outside. The radio quit, and my dog stared up at the sky, frozen in place. I noticed a star was a little brighter than the others and it was getting closer, bigger, and brighter. I got frightened because my dog wouldn't respond to anything. The ball of light came down and hovered in the cornfield behind our house. It was so bright it lit up the field like a baseball stadium. It just sat there about 6 ft off the ground and hovered. I got terrified and did what any 16 year old kid would do. I jumped in my bed and hid under the covers. In about 10 minutes I noticed the sky getting darker. I popped my head out and watched it rise back into the sky. It got smaller and smaller until it disappeared. The minute it disappeared, my radio came on and my dog shook himself and whined at me. No one else in the neighborhood saw a thing. The next day I started investigating UFOs. From a Christian perspective. That's the short version. Thanks for asking!
@@esq8 I just read the last part of your question. I've had many encounters with the paranormal world, demons, poltergeists, etc. And I searched for the Loch Ness Monster off and on for 20 years. More than 100 trips to loch Ness. I lived in Scotland a long time. But I've always studied these things from a Biblical perspective. It really makes a difference.
@@samburton2978 Thanks so much for sharing your story. That sounds absolutely amazing...and terrifying! In your studies, what conclusions have you come to? I'm a Christian myself, and since my return to the Lord in 2011, I've had some incredible supernatural experiences, one where I had an OBE in the middle of getting ready for work in the morning and met the Father Himself (it was an answer to desperate prayer that I did not expect). I've had a number of others, not quite on par, but warnings of the future and what's coming. But around that time I started researching everything on the internet and got "red pilled", but from a Christian perspective. UFOs were one of those topics as it had been a fascination as a child. I even remember hiring out "Project Bluebook" out of the tiny country elementary school's library that I attended when I was 10. Bigfoot, loch ness, they were staples. But I'll never forget sitting in a boring afternoon church service one Sunday afternoon and reading Genesis 6:1-8 about how there were giants on the earth in those days, and my 11 year old mind about flipped. Since 2011, I've looked into all of these things because there is so much out there and have waded through a lot of info, both secular and Christian to form some sort of cohesive rationale to satisfy my curiosity in this area. Of course, it's all open to challenge and learning. But back to UFOs. Edit: In your experience, what do you think that light was? A craft? Or a being? Was your dog frozen? Did you experience any sort of psychic intrusion or "knowing" during the experience? Reiterating my original question, what conclusions have you come to as to what aliens are? Fallen angels? Watcher class (Daniel 4:17)? Various species of benei elohim (i.e. sons of God)? Or simply evil spirits/demonic entities manifesting in different ways? Last question - did you ever see Nessie? And what do you think THAT is? A surviving plesiosaur? Interested in your thoughts and conclusions. You've been at this a lot longer than I have!
Being a young person who was curious and deeply spiritual and dabbled in the occult, I think the best way to treat children’s interest on the subject is to explain the details of why it’s dangerous. People telling me not to do it only pushed me further into the occult.
It's very refreshing and comforting seeing this being talked about and even testimonies from people in the comments here. The very reason I'm Christian in the first place is because as an edgy disillusioned teen who was in a very negative/dark headspace I "tried" witchcraft for the heck of it and was tormented for months on end with nightmares and this constant feeling of fear and a malevolent presence in my house. I finally reached out and talked to a Christian friend of mine cuz I was so exhausted and desperate and the experience had actually inspired faith in me, as unholy as it was it showed me that there is indeed "dark" spirits/forces which in turn means there had to be the light as well, on top of there being more to the world we can observe. He helped me give myself to Jesus/God and I pledged myself to Him, confessed my sins and asked for protection and immediately felt comfort and safety I hadn't felt in months, I truly felt I had "turned the page" on the darkest chapter of my life. That same night, I woke up in the early morning seeing this very tall, pitch black humanoid-esque figure standing above me and I got up and struck the being with this sword? spear? of pure light, and at that moment I woke up in the exact same position and was so very shook by the vividness of that dream, and more importantly by the sheer relief, peace and comfort I felt. For months on end I had felt like I was never alone in my house let alone my own room, there was this constant feeling of terror and a dark presence near me but as I stood there I felt like I was finally TRULY alone, the dark veil/presence in my life was gone. :) Whether the dream was a mental manifestation of the spiritual change within and around me being born anew in Christ, without a doubt something drastic and real changed that night, I truly felt God's presence and handiwork in that moment and my faith has been unshakeable ever since. This is a story I have rarely shared as I was admittedly fearful given how crazy it all sounds to someone who hasn't experienced something like that, let alone non-christians. I have in fact been evaluated and am not schizophrenic or anything else of that sort. Which is again why I'm thankful this dialogue is being opened here, God bless and good day everyone 🤍
Thanks for having Dr. Huffling on! I’ve also heard Dr. Hugh Ross talk about this subject as well. This reminds me of Ephesians 2:2 …following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.
Interesting. I’ve been a Christian for 43 years and this is the first bit of depth I’ve ever heard on this subject. Within a year of being saved I was standing with a friend on a rural dirt road when he just started jumping and swinging his arms and swiping his hands and yelling in terror, Can’t you see them!!! Almost instantly I recalled, “greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.” 1 John 4:4. Had I not known that, there is no possible way I could have stood there. That was a long time ago, but I have learned through the last decades to Never underestimate your opponent’s resolve to beat you. And what we do should be done for God’s glory.
@@alvinyong9370 There is a saying "you will know them by their fruits".... aliens and those into them/being 'visited' by them tend to have bad fruit, if any fruit at all i.e. nothing good comes from them, so why would they be angels?
@@liia9736 if demons travel in fast moving very advance spacecrafts then don't you think the angels travel in similar spacecrafts too? The Bible says demons are just fallen angels.
So glad to see more christian channels coming out to talk about this subject! Prophecy Watchers have been the only ones going into depth about this subject so I love seeing this subject branching into other channels!
Hi. I just want to point out that the creation ministry international author Gary Bates wrote a great book on this topic several years ago- Alien Intrusion-UFOs and the Evolution Connection; and also Dr Chuck Missler wrote a book about it much along the same lines. So this HAS been addressed by Christian scholars, it is has been largely ignored by church leaders worldwide. Great discussion thanks for sharing this. Frances
I’m glad someone else is not afraid to think. And recognizes the world may be stranger than we think. 😊 and challenging us to tackle tough questions. And to bring light to something that is trying to hide in the dark. (I think that is also a clue) I miss Heiser. But glad there are others who are logical and theoretically sound who are basically carrying the torch forward.
I watched all three videos by Dr Huffling. It reminded me of stuff that Steven Bancarz had mentioned previously, of his experience with entities. Thank you, Dr Huffling for producing a good, comprehensive guide to these things.
Great show. I love that people talk more about these things than only even 5 years ago. When it comes to exposing these topics I also would recommend LA Marzulli who has been exposing that for decades. He's filmed great documentaries about nephilim, ufo's and all things related.
Yes, L.A. Marzulli is a great Christian and has dedicated many years to exposing fallen angels and the spawn of fallen angels (‘aliens’). I also highly recommend his channel.
So glad to hear someone cover mothman. As a native WVian who used to work in the town where the mothman is celebrated, I have often wondered how to interpret this biblically.
That was awesome! There are a lot of weird things that go on out here in Western NM but the Most High Father keeps a pritective hedge around me and my little tribe. Special Protection Unit😁❤
Yep I'm a gate guard for a fraccing operation down in far South Texas and it's a very remote area. My husband and I have seen some STRANGE stuff in the sky. But nothing has ever messed with us so far Praise God!!
This discussion reminds me of my brief interest in biorhythms as a teenager. It seemed like a scientific thing, but when I tried to learn more about it, it kept pointing me into occult areas that I didn't want to get into, so I dropped the whole thing. It's arguable that UFOs and speculation about aliens is a pseudoscientific "gateway drug" that lead people into occultism and new age thought.
The idea of entities coming from space goes back to the oldest known writings of the sumerian tablets and also the Nag hamadi which is the gnostic teachings that were kept away from roman sanitization of the bible. It's not a new age occult idea at all
Really appreciate you addressing this subject; my family and my life was turned upside down the day my 12 yr old daughter was talked into playing with a ouija board at her 13 yr old friend's house
While I’ve never heard of this guy, I can definitely recommend LA Marzulli, and the late Michael Heiser and the great Chuck Missler for those interested in more of this.
Thank you for teaching me much that I didn’t know, but always suspected. I appreciate having words backed by careful research to add to conversation that presents themselves. As children of God, we really need to be able to respond with love, respect and intelligence. So thank you!
This is a really interesting topic. I recently also found LA Marzulli work and he goes deep into the ufo stuff from a Christian perspective too. Marzulli even believes this could be the great deception that would happen in the end times. Greatly recommend having him on for this topic! God bless.
@@katharden5806 He has some great documentaries on the subject and for sure gives you food for thought when it comes to the coming great deception in the end times. He has a lecture on RUclips you can find by typing La Marzulli Calvary Church. It’s a 3 part lecture that really shows the ufo deception from a biblical perspective. God bless you!
Back in the 80's and into the 90's I was a big believer in aliens and ufo's. I thank God that my mom raised me in the church and she never stopped praying for my salvation. I read many books and watched several videos on this topic. I eventually realized the reality of what is going on. There's a good read that goes into depth on the topic from a Biblical point of view: "Alien Intrusion by Gary Bates".
My grandparents, my father, myself, and others while in the military, especially on travels, have seen "the lights" in the sky. The church has not done enough to cover these subjects appropriately.
My mom has always been completely uninterested in these kind of topics. But I've always believed that my faith has an answer to anything, so learning about UFO encounters shouldn't scare me.
@@sackettfamily4685 There are to many people, even within the church, who have had experiences of one type or another. If the church won't deal with topics such as these in an honest biblical and intellectual way (I think they can go hand in hand in most cases), then people will look elsewhere for answers that may lead down the wrong path.
@@pappap1702 My apologies for not getting back with you sooner. Not knowing how you mean your comment, please know I'm not attacking you in anyway. There are several subjects the New Testament and the Old Testament do not cover. One example would be the subject of the dinosaurs, and am sure we can agree they existed.
I got interested in this topic years ago. Turns out this type of phenomena has been occurring for a very long time but probably the most notable, dates clear back to world war 1 and II. Another good source for this topic of unexplained is a series by David Paulides retired "Missing 411" an investigator that tackles unsolved crime cases gets into this topic.
I’ve had little college but have believed the exact same thing. Thanks to Professor Brian Huffling for going into this. Thanks Melissa for talking about this.
Two things I've always noted about so-called UFO encounters: One, they almost always happen to someone who either believes in aliens already or has either a New Age, occult or at the least a very non-Christian worldview. Two, these so-called aliens ALWAYS confirm a New Age/occult/anti-Christian message.
@ The Autistic Christian , Not all those that have been Involved in Abductions are or were into the cults , new age , UFO's etc.etc. also these beings drained the blood out of the cattle , took eyes out , tongue's ,anus. --- ------- as re. this see Linda Moulton Howe's research into the Cattle Mutilations. Even some Police have stated that these things weren't done by humans or other Predators. Some have stated that they have seen the Cattle being dropped from the sky. ----
Yessir. If you read enough testimony from people who've had an abduction experience, you can see a pattern of philosophy coming from the aliens thats very new-agey. They often talk about how destructive humans are to mother earth, etc, and that there is coming a time of universal knowledge and awareness of humanity's devine nature, etc. They also talk of the coming "purge" of the "haters", who will be removed from the planet to leave only those who have a pure and loving commitment to this new-age utopia. Of course, from the aliens point of view, the "haters" will be the Christians who dont go along with their new-age plan, and the "purge" will be the Rapture. Theyve got to turn it all upside down in order to deceive the lost into thinking they are the true special people, while those just "purged"(raptured) were the haters that needed to be removed. Is this making sense? Lol! Its gaslighting at the demonic level!
What about those who have witnessed UFO? When I was 14, I saw a saucer hover above a electric sub station for 3 hours and I think that it was drawing power from the sub station. And it did a vertical take off and was out of sight in a blink of an eye. I watched it through my binoculars 2-5am. I was terrified. My grandma was visiting and saw it from a upper bedroom window.
this is simply not true. 99% of the time people who encounter ufo's/aliens have 0 knowledge on the topic and have 0 interest in the topic prior to their experience.
Hi Melissa, I love your channel it's of so much blessing for me, it continues to help me grow and learn biblical truths! I watch one of your videos every morning with a cup of coffee ☕😁
Thank you SO much for having this guest on. Like you, I went through a new thought part in my life. I know I was possessed by a demon because I read and believed a lot of a channeled source called the Law of One. Its words warped my mind and I still see them in my head to this day despite growing closer to God. Seeing other people agree that demons = aliens is refreshing because that's what I came to understand through my demonic interactinos (yet they want to appear as aliens)
@Circle, please seek out a deliverance ministry in your area. They will help you get completely free. Those demons do not go away when we stop the practice. They must be cast out .
💯. I always think of the Lord's question to Satan in Job 1 asking where he has come from. "From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.
Russ Dizdar (now deceased), a strong Christian, worked with people who were in the darkest of places...much of his interviews have been scrubbed but his website still exists & has so much information on it.
I had a series of paranormal experiences as a kid that i later learned were seen by multiple people. An absolute insane story that shaped me as a person. And even though they stopped many years ago, ive always kept an eye on both the paranormal/extraterrestrial and something inside of me tells me ETs are absolutely paranormal/spiritual in nature.
Yep been thinkning that for a while now. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world's darkness and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Ephesians 6 12
@bradleymilton1720 You would assume correct. Not exactly easy to "document" something you see in your home. Especially when the majority of the incidents happen between the ages of 4 to 9 and the rest 12 to 15. However, there are over 10 people that would attest to having seen these same things. Sorry for the late response, never got a notification.
? The decades-long accounts of Betty Andreasson Luca specifically mention the “aliens” being glad that Luca has a Christian faith - and these “aliens” being the same black-eyed dwarves from other accounts. I think the matter is more complex than a uniform description.
Hey. I really hope you see this comment Melissa. When you guys started talking about the moth man and how people have seen it, it reminded me of a super strange time in my life where when I was a child, I saw this shadow person that was very tall and wore a top hat standing at the foot of my bed. One day I was talking to a friend who lived in Arizona and she told me a strikingly similar story of seeing this EXACT being. I had not disclosed I saw it until she began describing it. Years later, i found it it’s a phenomenon people have seen all over the world and the being is known as “The Hat man”. I’ve always thought he was some sort of inter-dimensional being. I’d love to hear you guys speak on this!
@@Summerkillens By the way, have you seen how "Baron Samedi", the "voodoo spirit" and "master of the dead" on the occultic island of Haiti is always portrayed? Wearing a top hat 😳
I haven't heard of that one, but it sounds like a typical "bedroom visitation." I would say it is probably demonic if it fits in with the other characteristics.
Wasn’t he the guy who thought our genetic code could be manipulated by man made creation so that we would be seen as nephilim before the Lord and the Lord would reject us?
Thank you for sharing this. I feel that too many people have had very disturbing encounters, yet many Christians write them off as attention-seekers or crackpots. They don’t want to discuss it and just make it a joke. But it isn’t funny for people who have had weird and/or scary things happen to them. It’s wonderful to hear someone who is clearly intelligent AND a Christian discuss this topic with a levelheaded approach.
A youtuber from years back been talking about things like this on a biblical perspective. His channel been shut down many times so its changed names but now it's called "Shield of the son Michael Jimenez" show this guy some love as well he's been edifying the kingdom for a long time. He's helped me a ton. Btw, I like your channel Melissa keep it up. Cheers!
As a young person I was susceptible to exceedingly frightening anxiety attacks but once I surrendered my allegiance to Jesus, I would speak His name and seek His help, and the once horrific panic attacks would diminish as quickly as they began.
I've been interested in UFOs and many other topics all my life. About 30 yrs ago I read a book by Jaques Vallee, the famous UFO investigator. My understanding was that he wrote this book towards the end of his life. He draws the conclusion that the "beings" are multidimensional, not purely physical, and gives examples of how many confuse, delude and frighten. He gives an example of a Christian Brazilian man kidnapped by dwarf like beings, and as he prayed to Jesus, our Lord appeared and rebuked them for breaching a law and ordered them to return the man. They did this, but dropped him off kms from where he had been fishing when kidnapped. Poor Earth geography knowledge or just slack? LOL. Forgive me if I got details wrong. It was a long time ago.
Bro, I read all of Valles' books. I believed in what he called the "nuts and bolts" hypothesis of UFOs. After studying his work, I made a 180 and realized his hypothesis fits nicely into the Christian world view.
@@JimmyEllis-bc6gw glad to hear. I meant at the end of his working life. Have not heard from him for decades. But maybe I just have not come across his latest content.
I've read 2 very good books from the 90's on this subject. One is Angels and Aliens (1993) by Keith Thompson and the 2nd one is Masquerade of Angels (1994) by Dr. Karla Turner. Both are excellent books that illustrate the many similarities between what people call angels or aliens.
I graduated from Lee University in 1985 with a degree in Christian education and currently pastor 3 United Methodist churches (but that is ending in June). I'm required to attend a UM approved seminary, and the closest is Duke (that is also ending in June). I'm glad I can learn from a Lee alumni.
All I can say is RUclips is a wealth of knowledge and free. I realize the evil one wants us watching entertaining stuff all the time. And I still will watch entertaining stuff, but when I can get this relevant stuff for my life right here and now, it is my go to.
I think part of the addiction is the "unknown" triggers some fear, no matter how strong we think we are, and that turns to adrenalin which makes it exciting. I really appreciate covering that and encouraging more time in the Word balanced with research - yet - still asking the church to help people who are under attack.
Melissa, I have watched you with Allan Parr and was curious about your channel. My first look is today and wouldn't you know, you were speaking about aliens and demonic connections. I loved it. You are the only Christian that have did an extensive coverage of the topic. It was long overdue. Brian Huffing was great. Of course they, whoever they are, would respond to the name of Jesus for it is power in that name. I'm currently working on a book and I will discuss that, also. Great job. Mothman? Yes, I have looked into that. Interesting.
Thank you for covering this topic Melissa. Have you heard the Haunted Cosmos podcast? They are two guys, one is a pastor, both are Christians, and they cover things beyond aliens, and come from a place that I can agree with as a Christian and based on the Bible.
I would really recommend Chuck Missler, when he was alive and at the Koninia Institute he delves into this whole topic often. I would highly recommend his work, also Grant Jeffries addressed this topic too
This is fascinating. I’ve been a Christian my whole life and never once heard this theory. You’re really making me curious about this connection. I’d love to hear more on this topic.
"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." ephesians 6 12
I once, as a non-Christian, went to a ufo 'hunt' in London's Parliament Hill Fields and I saw a robed occultist in attendance. The UFO phenomenon is a clever deception in that it combines science and the supernatural and is therefore attractive to naturalists/atheists aswell as others.
Before I became a Christian I was drawn into the occult like a moth to a flame; however, tarot cards, hypnosis, ouija boards, etc. didn't produce any results. The only thing related to that activity I remember was a vivid dream that felt like a warning. I woke up scared and felt like something dark was in my room. I then threw out my occult books and since then experienced weirdly coincidental meetings with other Christians until I was baptized.
The following things have absolutely nothing to do with the occult (even though people that are drawn to the occult are often drawn to these things too): Hypnosis Telekinesis Telepathy Remote Viewing (Clairvoyance)
The similarities between alien and demonic encounters is stark. They often include levitation, telepathy, the ability to walk through walls, missing time, the ability to defy the physical laws of nature, the smell of sulfur, mutilation and sexual molestation.
I’ve personally had an experience with I guess u can say the moth man…I was fishing late and it got very dark…we were down in a revine fishing a stream for trout…it got very dark so we come up the hill onto the trail to meet up with my other sons who were fishing up stream further. As we walked the trail I could sense something demonic… it got strong enough to where it took my breath away almost. Kind of like when jumping off a dock into cold water…I turned to my left and roughly 25 to 30 yards away up the hill in the brush were two glowing red eyes…shifty but looking at me…I called out to the Lord instantly for protection…it didn’t leave but it also didn’t follow me either
yes please come back! the discussion ended just when i thought it was getting started 😂 Im very curious about the Jesus is an alien topic as ive encountered that argument a lot 🤭
So interesting! I think that this topic (supernatural or aliens etc.) can become a form of an idol for Christian’s. Just like anything that is attractive and sinful ( porn, alcohol, drugs, food, sports lol ) anything you prioritize over God becomes an idol.
I am so fascinated by "Narnia" and this absolutely scratched that itch. Thank you Melissa and Brian! In the future, would you maybe consider getting the boys from Blurry Creatures on here? They do the same thing-- exploring things like UFO's, bigfoot, giants, nephilim, etc. from a Biblical perspective.
This is a subject that I have had a lot of experience in. It is also a subject I am very reluctant to talk about with most people. After all it can be a very taboo subject, especially with Christians. It shouldn't be though, for this is all about spiritual warfare. Paranormal phenomenon will only intensity the closer we get to the Second Coming.
There’s no denying what’s going on and the truth is coming out. More signs on what’s to come and the ones that are amongst us. Found out about the channel through BSS and Jack recommended your channel for this video.👍🏼
It's interesting that "alien encounter reports" spike every time a new science fiction series comes out on TV, and dwindles off when the suggestive influence of TV is not showing space series
We stopped at the Mothman Museum @ Pleasant Point, West Virginia on a road trip. It's definitely worth a stop if you're ever in the area. Great message..thank you!
Great show Melissa. Looking forward to his book and also subscribed to his channel. He brought much clarity on the subject. People are talking about this and we need a clear answer.
This, (UFO s aliens and demons, psychics, etc) has come up so much lately and I just didn't know or have any answers. Thank you for this video and your recommendations for further reading.
It seems like I've heard of creepy things going on in that part of the country. Isn't that Skinwalker ranch out in that general area of the country? I live out on the eastern seaboard in Georgia. Besides some minor haunted house stuff, there is not a lot of creepy things to talk about here, near Atlanta.
My first Ouija board was purchased at a church yard sale for ten cents. The lady said, "Don't put your trust in it." Were they that desperate for a dime? I had the most wonderful cosmic adventures...actually, I destroyed it and put the pieces into four different dumpsters. Several things that Dr. Huffling said are in agreement with my own studies, and I want to point out that the book "Alien Intrusion" by Gary Bates had how "walk the talk" Christians would cry out to Jesus and abductions would stop. Also, on Ian Juby's channel (Wazooloo) is a four-part video series on UFO/AEPs. He mentioned that one of the big-name UFO researchers (I think it was Jacques Vallée) actually said that it was demonic. I have a great deal to say about this and my own occult research, but that's enough.
Hi. I actually haven't read the space trilogy. But I've heard about them and that they are somewhat similar to what we see in real life. I'm sorry! I wish I could give you a better answer.
Finally 29:45 SHOUT OUT THE OG! Joe Jordan. BEEN talking this talk. Although Jaque Valle did say these things were super similar to demonic encounters in the middle ages.
I suggest looking at Guy Malone, he has a ministry helping people overcome the horrors of the experience of the hard encounters people have. No body believes them. And he worked along side heiser too.
Im sure a psychologist would explain this away, but for years i was terrorized by a presence which wake me by a crushing sensation and heavy animal breathing. Only when i cried out help me jesus would it leave, and not before. I know this is called sleep paralysis, but i find it odd that such a condition would respond to invoking gods name.

I've had huge impacts myself, more on the positive end, but a few occultic ones as well. Never a ufo though.
@@esq8 in fact I'm working on a podcast episode about it. Short version. It was late August 1972. I got home from work, took a shower, and was listening to some music on the radio, and playing with my dog. It was between 11 and midnight. I had school the next day. I put my dog outside. The radio quit, and my dog stared up at the sky, frozen in place. I noticed a star was a little brighter than the others and it was getting closer, bigger, and brighter. I got frightened because my dog wouldn't respond to anything. The ball of light came down and hovered in the cornfield behind our house. It was so bright it lit up the field like a baseball stadium. It just sat there about 6 ft off the ground and hovered. I got terrified and did what any 16 year old kid would do. I jumped in my bed and hid under the covers. In about 10 minutes I noticed the sky getting darker. I popped my head out and watched it rise back into the sky. It got smaller and smaller until it disappeared. The minute it disappeared, my radio came on and my dog shook himself and whined at me. No one else in the neighborhood saw a thing. The next day I started investigating UFOs. From a Christian perspective. That's the short version. Thanks for asking!
@@esq8 I just read the last part of your question. I've had many encounters with the paranormal world, demons, poltergeists, etc. And I searched for the Loch Ness Monster off and on for 20 years. More than 100 trips to loch Ness. I lived in Scotland a long time. But I've always studied these things from a Biblical perspective. It really makes a difference.
Will you post the link to the episode when you finish it? I'd love to hear the long version.
@@samburton2978 Thanks so much for sharing your story. That sounds absolutely amazing...and terrifying! In your studies, what conclusions have you come to?
I'm a Christian myself, and since my return to the Lord in 2011, I've had some incredible supernatural experiences, one where I had an OBE in the middle of getting ready for work in the morning and met the Father Himself (it was an answer to desperate prayer that I did not expect). I've had a number of others, not quite on par, but warnings of the future and what's coming.
But around that time I started researching everything on the internet and got "red pilled", but from a Christian perspective. UFOs were one of those topics as it had been a fascination as a child. I even remember hiring out "Project Bluebook" out of the tiny country elementary school's library that I attended when I was 10. Bigfoot, loch ness, they were staples. But I'll never forget sitting in a boring afternoon church service one Sunday afternoon and reading Genesis 6:1-8 about how there were giants on the earth in those days, and my 11 year old mind about flipped.
Since 2011, I've looked into all of these things because there is so much out there and have waded through a lot of info, both secular and Christian to form some sort of cohesive rationale to satisfy my curiosity in this area. Of course, it's all open to challenge and learning.
But back to UFOs. Edit: In your experience, what do you think that light was? A craft? Or a being? Was your dog frozen? Did you experience any sort of psychic intrusion or "knowing" during the experience?
Reiterating my original question, what conclusions have you come to as to what aliens are? Fallen angels? Watcher class (Daniel 4:17)? Various species of benei elohim (i.e. sons of God)? Or simply evil spirits/demonic entities manifesting in different ways?
Last question - did you ever see Nessie? And what do you think THAT is? A surviving plesiosaur?
Interested in your thoughts and conclusions. You've been at this a lot longer than I have!
Being a young person who was curious and deeply spiritual and dabbled in the occult, I think the best way to treat children’s interest on the subject is to explain the details of why it’s dangerous. People telling me not to do it only pushed me further into the occult.
This happened to me to and I often didn't tell anyone about what I was doing. I'm so glad Jesus saved me I could have been lost forever
Friend of mine and his friend saw a UFO with 3 8 foot beings coming out of the craft and then going back into it and taking off...
It's very refreshing and comforting seeing this being talked about and even testimonies from people in the comments here. The very reason I'm Christian in the first place is because as an edgy disillusioned teen who was in a very negative/dark headspace I "tried" witchcraft for the heck of it and was tormented for months on end with nightmares and this constant feeling of fear and a malevolent presence in my house. I finally reached out and talked to a Christian friend of mine cuz I was so exhausted and desperate and the experience had actually inspired faith in me, as unholy as it was it showed me that there is indeed "dark" spirits/forces which in turn means there had to be the light as well, on top of there being more to the world we can observe. He helped me give myself to Jesus/God and I pledged myself to Him, confessed my sins and asked for protection and immediately felt comfort and safety I hadn't felt in months, I truly felt I had "turned the page" on the darkest chapter of my life. That same night, I woke up in the early morning seeing this very tall, pitch black humanoid-esque figure standing above me and I got up and struck the being with this sword? spear? of pure light, and at that moment I woke up in the exact same position and was so very shook by the vividness of that dream, and more importantly by the sheer relief, peace and comfort I felt. For months on end I had felt like I was never alone in my house let alone my own room, there was this constant feeling of terror and a dark presence near me but as I stood there I felt like I was finally TRULY alone, the dark veil/presence in my life was gone. :) Whether the dream was a mental manifestation of the spiritual change within and around me being born anew in Christ, without a doubt something drastic and real changed that night, I truly felt God's presence and handiwork in that moment and my faith has been unshakeable ever since.
This is a story I have rarely shared as I was admittedly fearful given how crazy it all sounds to someone who hasn't experienced something like that, let alone non-christians. I have in fact been evaluated and am not schizophrenic or anything else of that sort. Which is again why I'm thankful this dialogue is being opened here, God bless and good day everyone 🤍
As someone that has done research into the occult, i can safely say that it's all bullshit.
Thanks for having Dr. Huffling on! I’ve also heard Dr. Hugh Ross talk about this subject as well. This reminds me of Ephesians 2:2 …following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.
Interesting. I’ve been a Christian for 43 years and this is the first bit of depth I’ve ever heard on this subject. Within a year of being saved I was standing with a friend on a rural dirt road when he just started jumping and swinging his arms and swiping his hands and yelling in terror, Can’t you see them!!! Almost instantly I recalled, “greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.” 1 John 4:4. Had I not known that, there is no possible way I could have stood there. That was a long time ago, but I have learned through the last decades to Never underestimate your opponent’s resolve to beat you. And what we do should be done for God’s glory.
Deuteronomy has lots of spiritual knives to fight with. Peace be with you.
I recommend the 2 Jewish men, Joshua and Caleb, the Bearded Bible Brothers, on you tube
I've been wondering about this potential connection between UFOs and demons for years now. Thanks for giving this topic a voice.
No connection whatsoever. The evidence doesn't point in that direction...it's just wishful thinking in behalf of Christians
Why can't ufo be angels?
@@alvinyong9370 There is a saying "you will know them by their fruits".... aliens and those into them/being 'visited' by them tend to have bad fruit, if any fruit at all i.e. nothing good comes from them, so why would they be angels?
@@liia9736 if demons travel in fast moving very advance spacecrafts then don't you think the angels travel in similar spacecrafts too? The Bible says demons are just fallen angels.
Still not benevolent whether f angels or demons 😊@@alvinyong9370
So glad to see more christian channels coming out to talk about this subject! Prophecy Watchers have been the only ones going into depth about this subject so I love seeing this subject branching into other channels!
Hi. I just want to point out that the creation ministry international author Gary Bates wrote a great book on this topic several years ago- Alien Intrusion-UFOs and the Evolution Connection; and also Dr Chuck Missler wrote a book about it much along the same lines. So this HAS been addressed by Christian scholars, it is has been largely ignored by church leaders worldwide. Great discussion thanks for sharing this. Frances
Chuck Missler’s book is titled Alien Encounters. By the way.
Also Dr. Michael Heiser. Check out his documentaries about Angels and Demons.
I’m glad someone else is not afraid to think. And recognizes the world may be stranger than we think. 😊 and challenging us to tackle tough questions. And to bring light to something that is trying to hide in the dark. (I think that is also a clue) I miss Heiser. But glad there are others who are logical and theoretically sound who are basically carrying the torch forward.
I watched all three videos by Dr Huffling. It reminded me of stuff that Steven Bancarz had mentioned previously, of his experience with entities.
Thank you, Dr Huffling for producing a good, comprehensive guide to these things.
Thank you for the encouragement! I appreciate it.
Great show. I love that people talk more about these things than only even 5 years ago. When it comes to exposing these topics I also would recommend LA Marzulli who has been exposing that for decades. He's filmed great documentaries about nephilim, ufo's and all things related.
hmm, beware Marzulli - some of his teaching is un-Biblical, particularly the fantasy stuff about 'nephilim'
Yes, L.A. Marzulli is a great Christian and has dedicated many years to exposing fallen angels and the spawn of fallen angels (‘aliens’). I also highly recommend his channel.
Totally agree, there's also another Christian channel that's investigating these occurrences called End Times Production.
So glad to hear someone cover mothman. As a native WVian who used to work in the town where the mothman is celebrated, I have often wondered how to interpret this biblically.
That was awesome! There are a lot of weird things that go on out here in Western NM but the Most High Father keeps a pritective hedge around me and my little tribe. Special Protection Unit😁❤
Yep I'm a gate guard for a fraccing operation down in far South Texas and it's a very remote area. My husband and I have seen some STRANGE stuff in the sky. But nothing has ever messed with us so far Praise God!!
This discussion reminds me of my brief interest in biorhythms as a teenager. It seemed like a scientific thing, but when I tried to learn more about it, it kept pointing me into occult areas that I didn't want to get into, so I dropped the whole thing. It's arguable that UFOs and speculation about aliens is a pseudoscientific "gateway drug" that lead people into occultism and new age thought.
The idea of entities coming from space goes back to the oldest known writings of the sumerian tablets and also the Nag hamadi which is the gnostic teachings that were kept away from roman sanitization of the bible. It's not a new age occult idea at all
Spot on Keith. The Ouija board is another doorway. Tarot cards, psychics, and fortune telling also.
Really appreciate you addressing this subject; my family and my life was turned upside down the day my 12 yr old daughter was talked into playing with a ouija board at her 13 yr old friend's house
While I’ve never heard of this guy, I can definitely recommend LA Marzulli, and the late Michael Heiser and the great Chuck Missler for those interested in more of this.
Have you read/watched any of Timothy Alberino’s stuff? I think you’d like him too.
@@katiepyle1590 Ah yes. Forgot to mention him, but he’s awesome.
Thank you for teaching me much that I didn’t know, but always suspected. I appreciate having words backed by careful research to add to conversation that presents themselves. As children of God, we really need to be able to respond with love, respect and intelligence. So thank you!
FINALLY..so glad you are bringing this truth! Thank you!!
This show hit a nerve!!! Well done and absolutely true. I was introduced to UFO's when I was young. Now I debunk them.
This is a really interesting topic. I recently also found LA Marzulli work and he goes deep into the ufo stuff from a Christian perspective too. Marzulli even believes this could be the great deception that would happen in the end times. Greatly recommend having him on for this topic! God bless.
Now I'll have to check him out. I wrote him off because I thought he had a different stance but I agree w end time deception.
@@katharden5806 He has some great documentaries on the subject and for sure gives you food for thought when it comes to the coming great deception in the end times. He has a lecture on RUclips you can find by typing La Marzulli Calvary Church. It’s a 3 part lecture that really shows the ufo deception from a biblical perspective. God bless you!
Back in the 80's and into the 90's I was a big believer in aliens and ufo's. I thank God that my mom raised me in the church and she never stopped praying for my salvation. I read many books and watched several videos on this topic. I eventually realized the reality of what is going on. There's a good read that goes into depth on the topic from a Biblical point of view: "Alien Intrusion by Gary Bates".
My grandparents, my father, myself, and others while in the military, especially on travels, have seen "the lights" in the sky. The church has not done enough to cover these subjects appropriately.
My mom has always been completely uninterested in these kind of topics. But I've always believed that my faith has an answer to anything, so learning about UFO encounters shouldn't scare me.
@@sackettfamily4685 There are to many people, even within the church, who have had experiences of one type or another. If the church won't deal with topics such as these in an honest biblical and intellectual way (I think they can go hand in hand in most cases), then people will look elsewhere for answers that may lead down the wrong path.
Funny thing the NT doesn't say anything, infer, suggest or point to any aliens or UFOs.
@@pappap1702 My apologies for not getting back with you sooner. Not knowing how you mean your comment, please know I'm not attacking you in anyway.
There are several subjects the New Testament and the Old Testament do not cover. One example would be the subject of the dinosaurs, and am sure we can agree they existed.
@@pappap1702 you’re right; but demons are mentioned regularly.
I got interested in this topic years ago. Turns out this type of phenomena has been occurring for a very long time but probably the most notable, dates clear back to world war 1 and II. Another good source for this topic of unexplained is a series by David Paulides retired "Missing 411" an investigator that tackles unsolved crime cases gets into this topic.
Gosh Melissa you have been refreshing for my newly delivered journey.
I’ve had little college but have believed the exact same thing. Thanks to Professor Brian Huffling for going into this. Thanks Melissa for talking about this.
You are welcome!
Two things I've always noted about so-called UFO encounters: One, they almost always happen to someone who either believes in aliens already or has either a New Age, occult or at the least a very non-Christian worldview. Two, these so-called aliens ALWAYS confirm a New Age/occult/anti-Christian message.
@ The Autistic Christian , Not all those that have been Involved in Abductions are or were into the cults , new age , UFO's etc.etc. also these beings drained the blood out of the cattle , took eyes out , tongue's ,anus. --- ------- as re. this see Linda Moulton Howe's research into the Cattle Mutilations. Even some Police have stated that these things weren't done by humans or other Predators. Some have stated that they have seen the Cattle being dropped from the sky. ----
@ The Autistic Christian , I wonder as to what Betty & Barny Hill Believed in before they were Abducted ??? ---- Not only them other People as well !!
Yessir. If you read enough testimony from people who've had an abduction experience, you can see a pattern of philosophy coming from the aliens thats very new-agey. They often talk about how destructive humans are to mother earth, etc, and that there is coming a time of universal knowledge and awareness of humanity's devine nature, etc. They also talk of the coming "purge" of the "haters", who will be removed from the planet to leave only those who have a pure and loving commitment to this new-age utopia. Of course, from the aliens point of view, the "haters" will be the Christians who dont go along with their new-age plan, and the "purge" will be the Rapture. Theyve got to turn it all upside down in order to deceive the lost into thinking they are the true special people, while those just "purged"(raptured) were the haters that needed to be removed. Is this making sense? Lol! Its gaslighting at the demonic level!
What about those who have witnessed UFO? When I was 14, I saw a saucer hover above a electric sub station for 3 hours and I think that it was drawing power from the sub station. And it did a vertical take off and was out of sight in a blink of an eye. I watched it through my binoculars 2-5am. I was terrified. My grandma was visiting and saw it from a upper bedroom window.
this is simply not true. 99% of the time people who encounter ufo's/aliens have 0 knowledge on the topic and have 0 interest in the topic prior to their experience.
Thank you, I appreciate the opportunity to listen to this.
That was a great well-thought-out conversation and I agree that the people need to be aware of what is actually around us
Hi Melissa, I love your channel it's of so much blessing for me, it continues to help me grow and learn biblical truths! I watch one of your videos every morning with a cup of coffee ☕😁
Chuck Missler wrote "Alien Encounters" with a doctor way back in 1997, when aliens were not culturally accepted as real, and it is amazing!
hmm, beware Missler - some of his teaching is un-Biblical, particularly the fantasy stuff about 'nephilim'
Yes Chuck was always ahead of his time. He’d be blown away if he was seeing what’s going on today. God bless 🙏
Too true! I find myself saying, "just you wait, Chuck! Just you wait" all the time. I look forward to meeting him on the other side.
Yupp i have that book. Also a documentary on it all is called ” age of deceit”
👍🙌
Thank you SO much for having this guest on. Like you, I went through a new thought part in my life. I know I was possessed by a demon because I read and believed a lot of a channeled source called the Law of One. Its words warped my mind and I still see them in my head to this day despite growing closer to God.
Seeing other people agree that demons = aliens is refreshing because that's what I came to understand through my demonic interactinos (yet they want to appear as aliens)
@Circle, please seek out a deliverance ministry in your area. They will help you get completely free. Those demons do not go away when we stop the practice. They must be cast out .
💯. I always think of the Lord's question to Satan in Job 1 asking where he has come from. "From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.
Russ Dizdar (now deceased), a strong Christian, worked with people who were in the darkest of places...much of his interviews have been scrubbed but his website still exists & has so much information on it.
I had a series of paranormal experiences as a kid that i later learned were seen by multiple people. An absolute insane story that shaped me as a person. And even though they stopped many years ago, ive always kept an eye on both the paranormal/extraterrestrial and something inside of me tells me ETs are absolutely paranormal/spiritual in nature.
'Seen by multiple people' but unfortunately never objectively documented in any form I assume?
Yep been thinkning that for a while now.

@bradleymilton1720 You would assume correct. Not exactly easy to "document" something you see in your home. Especially when the majority of the incidents happen between the ages of 4 to 9 and the rest 12 to 15. However, there are over 10 people that would attest to having seen these same things. Sorry for the late response, never got a notification.
Black Scout Survival tribe showing some support! - Excited for this interview!
Gary Bates wrote Alien Intrusion & other books on ufo’s. Wonderful biblical perspective. I’m surprised you didn’t mention him.
This is amazing. I get physically uncomfortable when UFO news comes on. The way he talks about them being hostile to Jesus REALLY hit the point home.
? The decades-long accounts of Betty Andreasson Luca specifically mention the “aliens” being glad that Luca has a Christian faith - and these “aliens” being the same black-eyed dwarves from other accounts. I think the matter is more complex than a uniform description.
LA Marzulli, Timothy Alberino, Mondo Gonzales. Good names to look into regarding these topics
Thank you so much for covering this! This was something that I had a theory about a long time ago so I love hearing from others!❤
Hey. I really hope you see this comment Melissa. When you guys started talking about the moth man and how people have seen it, it reminded me of a super strange time in my life where when I was a child, I saw this shadow person that was very tall and wore a top hat standing at the foot of my bed. One day I was talking to a friend who lived in Arizona and she told me a strikingly similar story of seeing this EXACT being. I had not disclosed I saw it until she began describing it. Years later, i found it it’s a phenomenon people have seen all over the world and the being is known as “The Hat man”. I’ve always thought he was some sort of inter-dimensional being. I’d love to hear you guys speak on this!
It's a demon
@@leenieledejo6849 I agree

I haven't heard of that one, but it sounds like a typical "bedroom visitation." I would say it is probably demonic if it fits in with the other characteristics.
Great video. I am glad there is someone apart from Michael Heiser (still miss him) covering this.
Did he pass?
@@Orwellwascorrect yes. A couple months ago. :(
Indeed. He was a great man.
There is also a series called "Haunted Cosmos", it is fascinating and worth a listen. Both men are believers and have done a lot of research.
Wasn’t he the guy who thought our genetic code could be manipulated by man made creation so that we would be seen as nephilim before the Lord and the Lord would reject us?
Thank you for sharing this. I feel that too many people have had very disturbing encounters, yet many Christians write them off as attention-seekers or crackpots. They don’t want to discuss it and just make it a joke. But it isn’t funny for people who have had weird and/or scary things happen to them. It’s wonderful to hear someone who is clearly intelligent AND a Christian discuss this topic with a levelheaded approach.
A youtuber from years back been talking about things like this on a biblical perspective. His channel been shut down many times so its changed names but now it's called "Shield of the son Michael Jimenez" show this guy some love as well he's been edifying the kingdom for a long time. He's helped me a ton. Btw, I like your channel Melissa keep it up. Cheers!
Dave hunt spoke tons on this subject 🎉he wrote the Arcon conspiracy, amazing book to read ❤. Chuck missler also spoke on this as well ❤
As a young person I was susceptible to exceedingly frightening anxiety attacks but once I surrendered my allegiance to Jesus, I would speak His name and seek His help, and the once horrific panic attacks would diminish as quickly as they began.
Great topic. Glad someone else is sounding the alarm from a Christian perspective.
I've been interested in UFOs and many other topics all my life. About 30 yrs ago I read a book by Jaques Vallee, the famous UFO investigator. My understanding was that he wrote this book towards the end of his life. He draws the conclusion that the "beings" are multidimensional, not purely physical, and gives examples of how many confuse, delude and frighten. He gives an example of a Christian Brazilian man kidnapped by dwarf like beings, and as he prayed to Jesus, our Lord appeared and rebuked them for breaching a law and ordered them to return the man. They did this, but dropped him off kms from where he had been fishing when kidnapped. Poor Earth geography knowledge or just slack? LOL. Forgive me if I got details wrong. It was a long time ago.
Bro, I read all of Valles' books. I believed in what he called the "nuts and bolts" hypothesis of UFOs. After studying his work, I made a 180 and realized his hypothesis fits nicely into the Christian world view.
Vallee is still alive and kicking!
@@JimmyEllis-bc6gw glad to hear. I meant at the end of his working life. Have not heard from him for decades. But maybe I just have not come across his latest content.
@@julessoto137 Indeed!
I've read 2 very good books from the 90's on this subject. One is Angels and Aliens (1993) by Keith Thompson and the 2nd one is Masquerade of Angels (1994) by Dr. Karla Turner. Both are excellent books that illustrate the many similarities between what people call angels or aliens.
I graduated from Lee University in 1985 with a degree in Christian education and currently pastor 3 United Methodist churches (but that is ending in June). I'm required to attend a UM approved seminary, and the closest is Duke (that is also ending in June). I'm glad I can learn from a Lee alumni.

Sent by Black Scout Survival channel. Thanks so much for the great information. Loved the interview and topic. Blessings 💞
I think part of the addiction is the "unknown" triggers some fear, no matter how strong we think we are, and that turns to adrenalin which makes it exciting. I really appreciate covering that and encouraging more time in the Word balanced with research - yet - still asking the church to help people who are under attack.
Melissa, I have watched you with Allan Parr and was curious about your channel. My first look is today and wouldn't you know, you were speaking about aliens and demonic connections. I loved it. You are the only Christian that have did an extensive coverage of the topic. It was long overdue. Brian Huffing was great. Of course they, whoever they are, would respond to the name of Jesus for it is power in that name. I'm currently working on a book and I will discuss that, also. Great job. Mothman? Yes, I have looked into that. Interesting.
Thank you for watching and for the encouragement! Good luck on the book.
Glad to know that somebody will pick up where Dr. Heiser left off. Can’t wait for part two.
Thank you for covering this topic Melissa. Have you heard the Haunted Cosmos podcast? They are two guys, one is a pastor, both are Christians, and they cover things beyond aliens, and come from a place that I can agree with as a Christian and based on the Bible.
I would really recommend Chuck Missler, when he was alive and at the Koninia Institute he delves into this whole topic often. I would highly recommend his work, also Grant Jeffries addressed this topic too
This is fascinating. I’ve been a Christian my whole life and never once heard this theory. You’re really making me curious about this connection. I’d love to hear more on this topic.

Very interesting and enlightening video! Thanks, Melissa. ❤️
Before I became a Christian I was drawn into the occult like a moth to a flame; however, tarot cards, hypnosis, ouija boards, etc. didn't produce any results. The only thing related to that activity I remember was a vivid dream that felt like a warning. I woke up scared and felt like something dark was in my room. I then threw out my occult books and since then experienced weirdly coincidental meetings with other Christians until I was baptized.
The following things have absolutely nothing to do with the occult (even though people that are drawn to the occult are often drawn to these things too):
Hypnosis
Telekinesis
Telepathy
Remote Viewing (Clairvoyance)
Very interesting topic! Thanks so much ❤
The similarities between alien and demonic encounters is stark. They often include levitation, telepathy, the ability to walk through walls, missing time, the ability to defy the physical laws of nature, the smell of sulfur, mutilation and sexual molestation.
I’ve personally had an experience with I guess u can say the moth man…I was fishing late and it got very dark…we were down in a revine fishing a stream for trout…it got very dark so we come up the hill onto the trail to meet up with my other sons who were fishing up stream further. As we walked the trail I could sense something demonic… it got strong enough to where it took my breath away almost. Kind of like when jumping off a dock into cold water…I turned to my left and roughly 25 to 30 yards away up the hill in the brush were two glowing red eyes…shifty but looking at me…I called out to the Lord instantly for protection…it didn’t leave but it also didn’t follow me either
Wow, very interesting.
Great video Melissa. Thanks to both of you!
Thanks for the encouragement, and for watching!
I started watching Ancient Aliens once and it unsettled me so much I stopped!
Thanks for the interview. BSS brought me here.
Please do more episodes on this subject!
Dr Ross co-authored a good book on this subject. Great discussion, brother and sister!
yes please come back! the discussion ended just when i thought it was getting started 😂 Im very curious about the Jesus is an alien topic as ive encountered that argument a lot 🤭
Yes, we just scratched the surface!
Melissa, very off topic but your brows are on point! ❤️👍🏻
So interesting! I think that this topic (supernatural or aliens etc.) can become a form of an idol for Christian’s. Just like anything that is attractive and sinful ( porn, alcohol, drugs, food, sports lol ) anything you prioritize over God becomes an idol.
Thank you for talking about this. One thing I've never understood about this topic is the common assumption of benevolence.
I am so fascinated by "Narnia" and this absolutely scratched that itch. Thank you Melissa and Brian! In the future, would you maybe consider getting the boys from Blurry Creatures on here? They do the same thing-- exploring things like UFO's, bigfoot, giants, nephilim, etc. from a Biblical perspective.
Great timing on this video considering recent news!
This is a subject that I have had a lot of experience in. It is also a subject I am very reluctant to talk about with most people. After all it can be a very taboo subject, especially with Christians. It shouldn't be though, for this is all about spiritual warfare.
Paranormal phenomenon will only intensity the closer we get to the Second Coming.
There’s no denying what’s going on and the truth is coming out. More signs on what’s to come and the ones that are amongst us. Found out about the channel through BSS and Jack recommended your channel for this video.👍🏼
It's interesting that "alien encounter reports" spike every time a new science fiction series comes out on TV, and dwindles off when the suggestive influence of TV is not showing space series
There's a lot of crazy people liars out there but I don't think all of them could be lying some of these have to be true stories

Melissa do you not know about the Prophecy Watchers ministry? They are on RUclips too. You will learn all about this stuff there. 😊
Great show Melissa. Looking forward to his book and also subscribed to his channel.
He brought much clarity on the subject. People are talking about this and we need a clear answer.
I appreciate the encouragement and thanks for subscribing! I'm looking forward to the book too! Haha, I have a long way to go before it's done.
Interesting stuff, 🤔. A very interesting topic that I've always been interested in. Very interesting.
This, (UFO s aliens and demons, psychics, etc) has come up so much lately and I just didn't know or have any answers. Thank you for this video and your recommendations for further reading.
Over from Blackscout, thanks!
Thank you for covering this subject !
It seems like I've heard of creepy things going on in that part of the country. Isn't that Skinwalker ranch out in that general area of the country? I live out on the eastern seaboard in Georgia. Besides some minor haunted house stuff, there is not a lot of creepy things to talk about here, near Atlanta.
I was sent here from the Black Scout Survival channel. Great video!
The fact that these things submit to the name of Jesus, opens A Lot of doors for the Gospel.
Thank you for broaching this topic! I've wondered about it.
This seems like a topic of the Blurry Creatures podcast--love it!
I love Blurry Creatures!
My first Ouija board was purchased at a church yard sale for ten cents. The lady said, "Don't put your trust in it." Were they that desperate for a dime? I had the most wonderful cosmic adventures...actually, I destroyed it and put the pieces into four different dumpsters.
Several things that Dr. Huffling said are in agreement with my own studies, and I want to point out that the book "Alien Intrusion" by Gary Bates had how "walk the talk" Christians would cry out to Jesus and abductions would stop. Also, on Ian Juby's channel (Wazooloo) is a four-part video series on UFO/AEPs. He mentioned that one of the big-name UFO researchers (I think it was Jacques Vallée) actually said that it was demonic.
I have a great deal to say about this and my own occult research, but that's enough.
I would be interested to know Dr Huffling’s thoughts on CS Lewis’s space trilogy.
Hi. I actually haven't read the space trilogy. But I've heard about them and that they are somewhat similar to what we see in real life. I'm sorry! I wish I could give you a better answer.
Finally 29:45 SHOUT OUT THE OG! Joe Jordan. BEEN talking this talk. Although Jaque Valle did say these things were super similar to demonic encounters in the middle ages.
I suggest looking at Guy Malone, he has a ministry helping people overcome the horrors of the experience of the hard encounters people have. No body believes them. And he worked along side heiser too.
Thank you for this...been looking for these answers!!
Im sure a psychologist would explain this away, but for years i was terrorized by a presence which wake me by a crushing sensation and heavy animal breathing. Only when i cried out help me jesus would it leave, and not before. I know this is called sleep paralysis, but i find it odd that such a condition would respond to invoking gods name.
Hi from France. John Keel wrote, I'm paraphrasing: " If you show interest to the phenomenom, the phenomenom will show interest to you. "
