Coming Great Delusion Will Unite Humanity

Theology and Politics from a Conservative, Biblical Perspective

Take a few moments to consider the following scenario:

One day possibly soon, government agencies make a huge show of information they said they could not previously release because of how they believe society would have reacted to such news and information. However, they now believe the time is right to present this information the world.

What is this information? Nothing short of the fact that our government has made and been in contact with extraterrestrials from far-flung planets and galaxies. Originally thinking these non-human entities (NHEs) were ominous, they’ve come to realize since then that they essentially want to help the people of earth in several ways. Because of their highly advanced state, they have learned how to successfully avoid all wars. Beyond this, they also understand that humanity uses far less than 10% of its intellect and brain power to solve problems, issues, and to literally advance through progressive stages of spiritual evolution.

These aliens are now confirmed to want to help the people of earth accomplish both of these things, not only for the betterment of planet earth, but also for the lives of billions of people who live here and will continue to exist on this earth plane for generations to come.

Because of all this, these government agencies are now in a position to reveal to the world the truth and reality behind what has been commonly referred to as conspiracy theories.

At this point, individuals from numerous government agencies, in order to prove what they know, would showcase some of the technology gained from human interaction with ETs. They might also even introduce one or several individuals not of this world, but of from other planets.

Of course, now, the above scenario seems unreal, inappropriate, and difficult to believe. But, what if that day actually came to this world, where the curtain of privacy that has shrouded the entire UFOlogy in mystery, was flung open allowing the world to see for themselves?

What do you honestly believe the reaction to this revelation would be by the average unchurched individual? There might be some doubters, certainly, but by and large, it’s not difficult to believe that the majority of people would readily accept such revelations with absolute glee and for several reasons.

First, a revelation about space beings (ETs, NHEs, etc.), would allow people to accept something that has nothing to do with God at all. Atheists, rational thinkers, agnostics, and certainly metaphysics, New Agers, and unfortunately, even many who attend church as professing Christians but do not have authentic salvation, would all be able to see and accept what they are presented without feeling one bit guilty about it. After all, the evidence is clearly in front of their eyes. They can replay the news videos. They can watch as NHE’s offer spectacular proof of their existence and ability. Only the truly hard-hearted (or authentic Christian), would deign to not believe what is presented before their very eyes.

I contend that if a scenario such as this one occurred, it would take the world by storm and literally transform it overnight. Because of the presence of these superior beings, it would be like children playing together in the sandbox under Mom and Dad’s watchful eyes. Kids know that if they start to argue, parents will jump in to crush it or deal with it in a way that redirects the children’s concern. How would we be able to continue with the wars and conflicts that have permeated history and continue to this day? Is it likely that because of the presence of such superior beings from other planets, the people of planet earth would put themselves on their best behavior in an effort to cull the NHE’s favor and to prove that we are actually “worthy” of their visitation and tutelage?

However, when all is said and done, these superior beings, while truly superior to human beings, are not at all what they claim to be. Not only are they not extraterrestrial entities with a mission to help humanity, but they are in reality, demons who have successfully conned nearly the entire planet into thinking that they are here for our benefit and only seek to help. In truth, this long con that’s been going on for many decades in earnest has been undertaken with the one main goal of pulling people away from God in Christ.

These beings have hyper-drive spaceships. They can communicate telepathically directly to our minds. No spoken words need to be uttered. Many will think that all the stories of angels and demons, Lucifer, Satan, God, heaven and hell have been corrupted versions of the true reality, which is now seen in the ETs who stand before us with their power, their might, and envisioned benevolence. All those stories about God are simply corrupted versions of these aliens. That’s actually the way they wanted it because it allowed them to maintain their mask as they moved among us and they assumed that it was far better for people to believe in angels, God, demons, and Satan than to know the actual truth…until we were ready to hear and see it.

What if, while all this is revealed to humanity, one individual from their ranks becomes the focal point for all these alien beings? He looks most human than all the others and the other aliens all seem to support him and approve of him. What if, because of his tremendous charisma, knowledge, ability to perform truly miraculous – other worldly – feats, he begins to take the world by storm with leaders from every corner of the globe seeking him out for wisdom and counsel? What if he becomes more and more attractive to people throughout the world? What if people cannot get enough of him? But what if this seemingly perfect man will be none other than the coming “man of sin” (2 Thessalonians 2), otherwise known as the Antichrist?

As I look through Scripture, it seems undeniably clear to me that this world is moving toward judgment with God and this is in spite of anything good that we see happening throughout the world right now (and there are some good things occurring). The Bible is absolutely clear that global judgment will occur. The coming Tribulation is God pouring out His wrath onto this earth. Armageddon is the climax of the Tribulation and will take place in the Middle East, on the Plain of Megiddo. This will be where Antichrist gathers all of his troops in an all out effort to keep Jesus from returning to this planet. Antichrist will not succeed.

Jesus will return, He will destroy the Antichrist with the breath of His mouth, and He will then set about judging the nations and the people within those nations. All of this is carefully (and repeatedly) laid out in Scripture. Reading through Revelation alone, specifically chapters 6 through 18 provides us an in-depth picture of the inside of the coming Tribulation. There is no indication at all that God will somehow change His mind about these coming events. However, many are inclined to lay “blame” on the direction the world is taking directly onto the shoulders of people like myself who simply read and accept what God’s Word says literally. They believe that by constantly talking about it, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy. People who think this way undermine God’s sovereignty, whether they admit to it or not.

Would we argue that the prophets of the Old Testament created an environment where the things they prophesied happened because they talked about them and warned they would occur? Absurd. It is clear from Scripture that God anointed and filled numerous prophets with His Word that was to be disseminated to the Israelites concerning their own future, whether near or far. Often, these prophecies reflected near future and far-flung future. In certain cases, prophecies uttered by the prophets only referred to those that would unfold at the correct time during the very last portion of the end times and beyond into the Millennial Kingdom.

These prophecies were not “negotiable.” They were not brought about by humanity “wishing” them to be the case. Who is actually looking forward to the coming Tribulation; the seven seals, seven trumpets, or seven bowls of judgment from God’s throne room, poured out on the earth?

Jesus told us in His Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21), that a coming deception would occur that would literally pull the wool over the eyes of many people on the earth when it happens. Paul the apostle says even more in 2 Thessalonians 2 and 9. Interestingly enough, he doesn’t go into any real depth here. If this delusion that he spoke of centuries ago ties in with the fake “alien” visitations to earth, it is very possible God did not inform Paul as to the exact situation that would exist under this coming delusion. Paul may not have understood it had it been revealed. It was enough for Paul to know and understand that at some point in history, a strong, powerful delusion would engulf this entire planet. God would allow it (send it), to help Satan attempt to achieve his final goals, which will ultimately fail.

In his letter to Timothy, Paul does outline the character of people leading up to this coming time of deception, which creates apostasy in many. In fact, Jesus makes the case, as I’ve mentioned before, that the deception/delusion will be so strong that it would fool even the elect if that was possible. The implication being that the actual elect will not be fooled, but that’s how strong the coming delusion will be.

1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. (2 Timothy 3:1-5 KJV)

Paul is speaking about the majority of people alive during the last portion of the end times. He first states as a warning that the last days will be “perilous.” Why? It will be the direct result of people and their prevailing attitudes during that time. That is what will make things so bad. For which group of people will it mainly be bad, difficult, or terrible? Christians.

So, in looking at Paul’s list, where do you think society is now? Is society currently filled with people like the ones described by Paul? It seems clear that this overall attitude is growing and spreading throughout global society right now. Because people who live evil lives hate those who don’t. Those people feel judged.

We spoke last time of the fact that Satan seems to have given birth to several different plans that ultimately all tie in together. All the way back to Genesis 11, we learn of Satan’s attempt to unite humanity at what was known as the Tower of Babel. Though thwarted then, Satan has never stopped tempting people to worship false idols, to pull them away from God.

Over generations, he has fine-tuned this into the New Age Movement, where people can worship things, ideas, or even themselves without feeling as though they are worshiping false idols. The New Age Movement is for those seeking true “enlightenment.” By comparison, Christianity is antiquated, patriarchal, stuffy, limiting, judgmental. Ironic how Islam gets a free pass though.

To tag onto this New Age religion and extend it, in the late 1800s/early 1900’s, Satan began introducing something new that tied in and even rose out of elements of the New Age. This something new was the extraterrestrial movement. The whole concept actually connected well with New Age thought because of the ethereal nature of the New Age Movement. Moving up the ranks within New Agism requires help of unseen adepts or ascended masters who have gone on and can look back and offer an extended hand to those just now coming up the ladder of the New Age hierarchy toward self-actualization.

It seems that many of the ascended masters were actually hiding their true identities because they didn’t think people could handle the full reveal. Eventually, the stage was set and many of these ascended masters have now revealed themselves as aliens from other planets and galaxies.

It is very clear that those who cast off all vestiges of Judeo-Christian beliefs are best suited for advancement within the New Age hierarchy. Out with the “old” and in with the “advanced.” In fact, from many teachings within the New Age, it is taught that religions were first used to get people used to the idea that “gods” existed and that they should look outside of themselves and up. Over eons, this was slowly modified into looking within (inner-space), to find true deity.

Eventually, Christians will not be tolerated at all and we’ve certainly been seeing that growing in society for a time. This will probably take longer to happen in America, but it will happen. God appears to have ordained it.

Sometimes, I lose sight of this. Jesus was very clear when He said, “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you,” (John 15:18-19 ESV). Jesus was not saying this so that it would become reality. He said it because He knew it would be reality. It helps to remind ourselves of this from time to time.

The day appears to be coming when full-blown deception on a worldwide scale will overtake the planet. I believe it will be evidenced when the world embraces the likely coming great reveal of “aliens” and “extraterrestrials.”

Decades ago, all the outer space movies had a merciless outer space tyrant who set his sights on Earth, determined to overthrow it and take it for his own. Space aliens were always seen as evil. That began to change and while evil aliens still exist in movies, by and large, there are far more benevolent aliens who wish to protect earthlings. They want to befriend us and share their knowledge with us. Some alien type movies even presented aliens in a humorous fashion, with some TV shows presenting them as absurdly stupid.

I’ve read many writings of those who believe that a spatial shift is getting ready to occur in our part of the universe that will include our planet. It is amazing how many people are actually looking forward to it because they thoroughly believe these “aliens” who will help bring it about only have our best interests at heart. This is the type of person who will be fully taken in by the coming powerful deception. They want with all the fiber of their being to believe that aliens exist, they’ve been communicating with us and our government will finally tell the world. For these people, there couldn’t be a better day ahead.

It will actually be the worst day for planet earth and humanity when this coming great reveal occurs. It will be so thoroughly deceptive that few will see the awful truth behind it. It will be the start of the worst time planet earth is to experience.

Does this sound depressing? It shouldn’t be as it simply points to what God has already revealed in Scripture. Take heart Christian, our life is but a vapor, here today and gone tomorrow. The thing to remember is that our life is very precious to our Lord.

If you are not reading God’s Word on a daily basis, I would like for you to reconsider. How else will you get to know the God who gave His life that you might be redeemed and avoid an eternity of hell?
