SPACE
The Final Frontier
Behold, I create new heavens and a new
earth (Isaiah 6517, NKJV)
Scott Huckaby www.BibleTract.org

Todays Discussion
What are the extraterrestrials? What is the
mission of the aliens? What extraterrestrials
should we look forward to encountering? How does
the Bibles revelation of extraterrestrials help
us?
3
UFOs
The Truth is out there
God will send them strong delusion, that they
should believe the lie (2 Thessalonians 211,
NKJV)
4
Why do people desperately want to find proof of
extraterrestrial life?
We long to know the truth about our origin
How does it reinforce the theory of evolution?
If life just happened on earth, it could happen
elsewhere
How does it give people license to live however
they want?
It proves the Bible wrong about
  • The uniqueness of mankind
  • The uniqueness of the earth

5
How is mankind unique?
God created man in His own image, in the image of
God He created him male and female He created
them. (Genesis 127, NIV)
We are the only creatures made in Gods image.
Genesis 21 - Thus the heavens and the earth, and
all the host of them, were finished. (NKJV)
6
How is the earth unique?
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the
first heaven and the first earth had passed away,
and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy
City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of
heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully
dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice
from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God
is with men, and He will live with
them. (Revelation 211-3, NIV)
God will reside with men on the new earth for
eternity.
and they will reign for ever and
ever. (Revelation 225, NIV)
7
Are we being prepared for alien disclosure?
Vatican chief astronomer Father Jose Gabriel
Funes said there is a certain possibility of
intelligent life elsewhere in the universe.
(2008) Another Vatican astronomer, Guy
Consolmagno said that chances are mankind will
discover extraterrestrial intelligence.
(2005) Monsignor Corrado Balducci said ETs were
actually already interacting with earth and that
some of the Vatican's leaders were aware of it.
(2001) In 1997 Father Malachi Martin said why the
Vatican was studying deep space at Mt Graham
Observatory in Southeastern Arizona "Because
the mentality... those at the highest levels of
Vatican administration and geopolitics, know
that, now, knowledge of what's going on in space,
and what's approaching us, could be of great
import in the next five years, ten
years." Source http//www.raptureready.com/soap/
horn1.html
Is this part of a Vatican campaign to demonstrate
that they embrace science, or something else?
WHY NOW?
8
What could be approaching earth from space?
Immediately after the tribulation of those days
Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in
heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will
mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on
the clouds of heaven with power and great
glory. (Matthew 2429-30, NKJV)
All the world will see the Lord approaching earth
before He sets foot here.
He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will
see Him. (Revelation 17, NIV)
9
Why else are we being prepared for alien activity?
I tell you a mystery We will not all sleep, but
we will all be changed in a flash, in the
twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. (1
Corinthians 1551-52, NIV)
To explain away the rapture of the church space
aliens zapped them (so now we all need to work
together)
they refused to love the truth and so be saved.
For this reason God sends them a powerful
delusion so that they will believe the lie (2
Thessalonians 210-11, NIV)
10
Jesus said when He returns it would be "as the
days of Noah were" (Matthew 2437) So what
does Genesis 64 tell us?
The Nephilim were on the earth in those daysand
also afterwardwhen the sons of God went to the
daughters of men and had children by them. They
were the heroes of old, men of renown. (Genesis
64, NIV)
Nephilim legends of the Greek gods? Nephilim
were also described as giants angels?
11
What do we know about angels?
And of the angels He says "Who makes His angels
spirits and His ministers a flame of fire."
(Hebrews 17, NKJV)
Angels are spirit-beings, they are non-corporeal,
without physical bodies... Like fire no
substance powerful and consuming Like energy
only their effects can be seen
12
How could spirit beings have a body?
Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so
doing some people have entertained angels without
knowing it. (Hebrews 132, NIV)
While angels are non-corporeal spirit beings,
they can manifest themselves as having physical
bodies.
13
What does this tell us about angels?
And war broke out in heaven Michael and his
angels fought with the dragon and the dragon and
his angels fought (Revelation 127, NKJV)
The holy angels and fallen angels fight in the
heavenly realm. The dragon here is a reference
to Satan, the head of the fallen angels or demons.
14
What does this tell us about demons?
His tail of the fiery red dragon drew a third
of the stars of heaven and threw them to the
earth. (Revelation 124, NKJV)
Satan not only deceived Adam and Eve, he lured
his own kind, other angels to reject God and took
them with him. This passage indicates that a
third of the angels became, or will become
fallen, following Satan.
15
How do demons attack Christians?
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be
able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
(Ephesians 611, NKJV)
They cannot possess Christians who are indwelt by
the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 619, 2 Cor 614, I John
44). However, they can tempt and oppress
Christians.
16
Where do demons reside?
We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but
against principalities, against powers, against
the rulers of the darkness of this age, against
spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly
places. (Ephesians 612, NKJV)
Heaven the atmosphere (Daniel 713), outer space
(Gen 114-18), and the spiritual realm (2 Cor
122). Satan is described as the prince of the
power of the air (Ephesians 22)
17
What angels were on earth in Noahs day?
The angels who did not keep their proper domain,
but left their own abode, He has reserved in
everlasting chains under darkness for the
judgment of the great day. (Jude 16, NKJV)
These fallen angels (demons) incited
wickedness They mixed it up with mankind to cause
people to defy God after the pattern of their
leader Satan.
18
Why would demons mask their identity?
Satan himself masquerades as an angel of
light. (2 Corinthians 1114, NIV)
They are driven to defy God so they seek to
deceive and destroy His creation.
1 Peter 58 - Be sober, be vigilant because
your adversary the devil walks about like a
roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
(NKJV)
19
What describes these three evil spirits?
Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like
frogs they came out of the mouth of the dragon,
out of the mouth of the beast and out of the
mouth of the false prophet. They are spirits of
demons performing miraculous signs, and they go
out to the kings of the whole world, to gather
them for the battle on the great day of God
Almighty (Revelation 1313-14, NIV)
Looked like frogs Smooth faces, no nose, big
eyes What people expect aliens to look like!
20
What will the three evil spirits do?
They go out to the kings of the whole world, to
gather them for the battle on the great day of
God Almighty they gathered the kings together
to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
(Revelation 1314-16, NIV)
There will likely be a visitation of "good"
aliens who promise deliverance from the "bad"
aliens who threaten the earth and incite the
nations to join together in the battle of
Armageddon.
21
Why couldnt alien visitations be angels that are
faithful to God?
Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ
has come in the flesh is from God, but every
spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not
from God. (1 John 42-3, NIV)
Faithful angels help people to know Christ,
demons draw them away from Him. this is what UFO
experiences do
22
When should a person choose sides?
He who believes in the Son has everlasting life
and he who does not believe the Son shall not see
life, but the wrath of God abides on him." (John
336, NKJV)
The longer it takes for a person to align
themselves with the Creator God, the more likely
they will suffer the fate of the alien demons
Matt 2541 Depart from Me, you cursed, into
the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and
his angels
23
What awaits those who follow Jesus?
He who overcomes the deception of this world
shall inherit all things (Rev 217, NKJV) The
heavens declare the glory of God (Psalm 191,
NIV)
Will we be limited to viewing Gods glory in the
heavens from earth? Gods glory will increase
the more we know Him through His creation
Of the increase of his government and peace there
will be no end. (Isaiah 97, NIV)
24
Why will God enable His children to explore the
stars?
I will come back and take you to be with me that
you also may be where I am. (John 143, NIV)
Jesus promised us that we would be able to go
where ever He may be and He can go anywhere
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee
from your presence? If I go up to the heavens,
you are there (Psalm 1397-8, NIV)
25
Is it only science fiction to think God will
enable us to explore the stars?
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly
abundantly above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that works in
us (Ephesians 320, NKJV)
Sci-Fi has a propensity to come to fruition. It
is the result of mankinds God-given sense of
adventure, wonder, creativity, and imagination
Is Gods imagination less than that of His
image-bearers?
Psalm 374 - Delight yourself also in the LORD,
and He shall give you the desires of your heart.
(NKJV)
26
How else do we know we will have access to the
stars?
Do you not know that we shall judge angels? (1
Corinthians 63, NKJV)
To have authority over angels we need access to
where they are, the heavenly realms
1st Heaven Earths Atmosphere 2nd Heaven
Outer Space 3rd Heaven Spiritual Realm
27
What kind of celestial conveyance will we need to
visit the stars?
Suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses
of fire, and separated the two of them and
Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. (2
Kings 211 , NKJV)
Elijah did, but he still had a mortal body. Note
that Jesus demonstrated a Star Trek style
transporter ability in John 2019 Luke
2431. We might choose to go in a Celestial
Winnebago to take certain creature comforts with
us.
28
What creatures besides angels will we encounter
among the stars?
I saw heaven standing open and there before me
was a white horse. (Revelation 1911, NIV)
It certainly looks like there will be at least
horses in heaven And there is also this
Around the throne, were four living creatures,
and they were covered with eyes, in front and in
back. The first living creature was like a lion,
the second was like an ox, the third had a face
like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle.
(Revelation 46-7, NIV)
29
Will we see our beloved pets in heaven?
Creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the
sons of God because the creation itself also
will be delivered from the bondage of corruption
into the glorious liberty of the children of
God. (Romans 819-21, NKJV)
While animals do not have spirits like people,
they do have souls (emotions, personality,
thinking ability)...
O LORD, You preserve man and beast. (Psalm 366,
NKJV)
He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make
all things new." (Revelation 215, NKJV)
30
What kind of relationships will people have with
animals in eternity?
Then I heard every creature in heaven and on
earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all
that is in them, singing "To him who sits on the
throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and
glory and power, for ever and ever!" (Revelation
513, NIV)
Relationships will be enhanced because at least
some will speak. Eve did not think it strange
that a snake spoke to her, Balaams donkey spoke
in Numbers 22, an eagle announces the trumpet
judgments in Rev 813.
31
How may we use an interest in discovering
extraterrestrial life help people to consider
Gods Word?
Point out that the Bible prophesies that
extraterrestrials will indeed invade earth prior
to the return of Jesus.
Tell them how they can be ready
Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved.
(Acts 1631, NIV)
