Spiritual Beings
Jesus was not a Christian.
Jesus had to be born in the land of Israel. He had to be born of the lineage of King David. He looked like a human being but he was not a human being. He was the creator of human beings.
He was a powerful Spirit with a mission, and He created a human embryo for Himself so he could be born as a human being in order to accomplish His mission.
Before this event, He had created many spiritual beings of different appearances and capabilities, and they had different purposes.
Colossians 1:16 for by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him and for Him.
Colossians 2:15 And having spoiled principalities
and powers, He made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
1 Peter 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto Him.
Ephesians 3:10 to the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God.
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
At the time theses scriptures were written, not only the Jewish people but also other cultures of the Earth were aware of the existence of these beings. It is possible that other beings were created besides those mentioned above.
We do not know if the Universe was created before or after these beings were created. We know that at least some of these beings were created already when God created mankind:
Genesis 1:26. And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness….
God had the company of some spiritual beings. It is preached in churches that these were the Son and the Holy Spirit, but these are ONE, as Jesus said in John 10:30, I and my Father are one.
These immortal spiritual beings of diverse appearance obviously continue to exist today in the spiritual realm, and at least some of them are capable of materializing in the realm where human beings exist.
The Garden of Eden.
When God lived on this Earth, His abode was called Eden. This building must have been impressive. Eden was set on a large piece of land called the Garden of Eden. The place was so large that a river went through it toward the east. The water was flowing from Eden, the building.
Genesis 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
God lived there with His entourage of spiritual beings. One of them, named Lucifer, had the charge to cover His throne.
What Was Eden?
Eden was God’s place or temple where His throne was. It was the governmental authority seat of the whole Universe, His whole creation.
The prophet Ezekiel had a very elaborate vision when God transported him to a mountain where a spiritual being took Ezekiel on a tour of the temple. Compare to the description of Eden:
Ezekiel 47:1 Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house stood toward the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar.
The writer of Revelation also had a vision that included a similar sight:
Revelation 22:1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
The creation of the first human being.
When God created man, He had already created humanoids (more on this later). He had also created animals.
The “One New Man Bible” has this footnote: Although translated “garden”, the basic meaning of the Hebrew word “gan” is “enclosure” referring to the walls or fences that surrounded a grove of trees in ancient lands, built to keep animals out.
Hence all of Eden’s property was enclosed by a tall wall. The only opening was where the river went out toward the east.
The humanoids previously created might have been hunters-gatherers, since God created this new human being to be a farmer or a gardener, with the ability to till the ground.
Genesis 2: 5-7 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground
God put the newly created man in the enclosed garden:
Genesis 2:8 And the Lod God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
Genesis 2:15 And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
God created other, different, animals to be in the garden and also created Eve, the woman.
At this point Lucifer became jealous of both the man and the woman, because of the relationship that God had with them. Lucifer became reptilian-looking when he fell (the serpent in the garden), but Adam and Eve were created in the image of God.
Lucifer planned to deceive Eve into disobeying God. She did, and Adam and Eve were cast out of Eden through the opening at the East, where the river flowed.
Genesis 3:24 So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubins, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
He probably put one Cherubim on each side of the river and a sword above the opening in the wall for the river. (A Cherubim is a spiritual being.)
Some spiritual beings can materialize.
We humans were made in God’s image: “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness…” Genesis 1:26. So God and the spiritual beings He created also in His image materialize to look like us. This happened to Abraham, except that Abraham discerned who they were:
Genesis 18:1-4 And the Lord appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat at the tent door in the heat of the day; and he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, and said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.
Also, they can eat when they materialize:
Genesis 18:8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
Notice that they also spoke the language that Abraham spoke.
Hebrews 13:2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares
Luke 1:26-35 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, from the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what kind of salutation this should be
Notice that Mary was not troubled when she saw the angel appear, but troubled at what he was saying.
Some spiritual beings disobeyed God.
God gave humans free will to obey Him or not, and He may have done the same with all His created beings. Just as Lucifer chose to disobey, other spiritual beings disobeyed also.
Genesis 6:1-2 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the Earth, and daughters were born unto them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair;
And they took them wives of all which they chose. There were giants in the Earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
The Hebrew translated here as “sons of God” has been explained several ways, the interpretation is “spiritual beings” or fallen angels.
These spiritual beings disobeyed God in more than one way. In having intercourse with human women, they produced a hybrid offspring that grew to gigantic stature and created havoc.
These was the time of Enoch, the one who walked with God and lived 365 years but did not die.
Genesis 5:24: And Enoch walked with God; and he was not: for God took him.
The Book of Enoch.
Among the finds in the Qumran cave of the dead sea scrolls, was found a scroll written by Enoch, or at least attributed to him. The book of Enoch was not considered canon before this find.
Theologians and historians feel the 220 scrolls were put in the cave for preservation by the early messianic church leaders at the time of persecution by the Romans. It is assumed that the book of Enoch was studied along with other scriptures, and some Bible scholars feel it should be canon.
In 1768 a copy of the book of Enoch was found in Ethiopia. This book has been in print for several years and can be ordered from artisanpublishers.com.
In his book, Enoch names some of the two hundred spiritual beings that came down to Earth in human bodies. Their assignment was to watch what was going on upon the whole Earth. They were called “watchers”. The book says that they not only had intercourse with the women, but they also were teaching the inhabitants of the Earth how to make weapons, jewelry, cosmetics, sorcery, astrology, astronomy, root work and other arts and sciences. They took this upon themselves; it was not their assignment.
The giants ate an enormous amount of food, which became depleted. When they could not find enough food, they began to eat human beings.
Genesis 6:5-9 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the Earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that He had made man on the Earth, and it grieved Him at his heart. And the Lord said, I will destroy ma n whom I have created from the face of the Earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air, for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
Note that “perfect in his generations” means that he did not have hybrid DNA, no hybrid ancestry.
The giants, sons of the Watchers, were called Nephilim. It is believed by some scholars that when they perished by the flood, their souls could not go to heaven or hell, so their souls remained on Earth. Since they used to have a human body,
they look for a human body they can inhabit. Because of this it is believed they are what we call “demons” which enter a human body when they find they have a right to do so.
This might be true. In my deliverance ministry, I encountered a manifesting demon who very proudly told me (through the host’s mouth), “I am very tall.” My gut reaction was to tell him, “Jesus is taller than you,” and his proudful stance was gone. He was easily cast out.
Spiritual beings have spiritual vehicles.
It is believed that the sight of “unidentified flying objects” (UFOs) is a more or less recent event, because of the encounters with foo fighters by the Air Force during WWII, amd also because of the famous abduction of Betty and Barney Hill in 1961. But UFOs have been around a lot longer than that! And all along they have been flown by spiritual beings. Just as spiritual beings materialize and dematerialize, their vehicles do also.
Several antique oil paintings show what appear to be UFOs in the sky. There is antique painting that depicts a battle of UFOs. These are very old works of art.
There are skeptics that don’t believe that UFOs exist, and there are believers that think that they are from alien planets.
Clouds.
Clouds, fogs or mists have to do with their appearance. I believe that when the spiritual realm touches the material realm, a fog, cloud or mist is formed.
Mark 13:26 And then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
Daniel 7:13 I saw visions in the night, and behold, one like the Son of Man came with the clouds of heaven.
Mark 14:62 And Jeshua said, “I AM and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power and coming with the clouds of the sky”
1 Thessalonians 4:17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so will be with the Lord forever.
Revelation 1:7 “Look, He is coming with the clouds” and “Every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him”; and all peoples on Earth “will mourn because of Him.” So shall it be! Amen.
Revelation 11:12 They ascended into heaven in the cloud.
God has vehicles, and so do some of the spiritual beings He created. Scriptures that hint at this fact follow:
Deuteronomy 4:10-11 specially the day that you stoodest before the Lord thy God in Horeb, when the Lord said unto me, gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the Earth, and that they may teach their children. And ye came near and stood under the mountain, and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds and thick darkness.
2 Samuel 22: 9-12 There went up a smoke out of His nostrils, and fire out of His mouth devoured: coals kindled by it. He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under His feet. And He rode upon a Cherub, and did fly: and He was seen upon the wings of the wind. And He made darkness pavilions round about Him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
Deuteronomy 33:26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun; who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in His excellency on the sky.
Job 26:9 He holdeth back the face of His throne, and spreadeth His cloud upon it.
2 Kings 2:11-12 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder, and Elijah went up by a whirlwind unto heaven.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried, my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his clothes and rent them in two pieces.
Psalm 68:4 Sing unto the Lord, sing praises to His name, extol Him that rideth upon the heavens by His name JAH, and rejoice before Him.
Psalm 68:33-34 to Him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, He doeth send out His voice, and that a mighty voice. Ascribe ye strength unto God: His excellency is over Israel, and His strength is in the clouds.
Psalm 104:1-3 Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great, thou art clothed with honour and majesty. Who coverest Thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain: who layers the beams of His chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds His chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind.
Isaiah 19:1 Behold, the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at His presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.
Excerpts from Ezekiel chapter 1:
4: And I looked and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
16 -18 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel. When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went. As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.
26 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
Consider these scriptures in Matthew chapter 2:
2 Saying where is he that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
9 When they had heard the king, they departed, and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
This is the Christmas story of the three wise men. They were guided by something in the sky that seemed to be a star. But this star moved, guided them on their journey, and then stopped over where the child was. It was a lighted vehicle flying in the sky that appeared to be a star.
Bible “abductions” and UFO abductions.
There is nothing new about the UFO abductions we hear about lately. The first abduction recorded was the taking up of Enoch.
Genesis 5:24 Enoch walked faithfully with God; and he was no more, because God took him away.
Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death. He could not be found because God had taken him away, for before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.
The taking up of Elijah:
2 Kings 2:11-12 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more, and he took hold of his clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
Elisha recognized the vehicle and knew the name of the vehicle: “The Chariot of Israel,” To Elisha it was not a “UFO.” He did identify this vehicle and we can conclude that it was because the vehicle had been seen before by the people and they had named it.
The ascension of Jesus:
Luke 24: 50-51. When He had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them. While He was blessing them, He left them and was taken up into the sky.
Mark 16:19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was taken up into the sky and He sat at the right hand of God.
Some translations say “taken up to the clouds”.
These instances of being taken up by God are the only ones recorded on the Bible, so it is possible that other similar instances happened but were not recorded.
UFO abductions.
UFO abductions are similar in that people and/or animals are taken up to a flying vehicle.
Dr. Carla Turner PhD wrote a book about her abductions titled, Taken. It is worth reading.
Abductees encounter beings of different appearances. The small grays are better known because they are also seen outside the vehicles when the vehicles land. The greys seem to be the lowest rank of beings. Abductees taken inside the vehicle report that they have seen beings that look like reptiles (reptilians) and insects particularly praying mantis (Insectoids.) Others less seen are called Nordics because they have blonde hair.
Remember that Lucifer in the Garden of Eden had a reptilian appearance (the serpent).
Consider this scripture:
Luke 10: 19 Behold, I give you power to trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Jesus gave us power over reptilians and insectoids. He also gave us power over demons, but the UFO “aliens” are not demons. They are fallen angels, spiritual beings of a higher rank which disobeyed God.
Paul was referring to this kind of spiritual beings in this verse:
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Interbreeding.
Abductees also report that one of the purposes for abduction is interbreeding, just as the times when the watchers came to Earth and had children with the women, engendering giants.
They grow the embryos in glass containers with a liquid that takes the place of amniotic fluid.
Who gets abducted?
Not Christians! Christians who walk with God are protected. Some abductees have become born again Christians after their experience. The fact that dedicated Christians have not been abducted indicates a spiritual connection, as if the crews of the UFOs know just who they can take and who they are not allowed to take. Or perhaps they do not take Christians because we have the power to tread on serpents and scorpions?
God also has flying vehicles. They form a cloud when they materialize, and a person can be “taken up” to the cloud as the Bible relates. The Bible has only one instance where God’s vehicle almost landed, and it is described in the book of Ezekiel.
The spiritual beings that disobeyed God have the same technology, and their vehicles have been active for centuries.
