Film Mixes Christianity with UFOs
The Christian Post ^ | Feb. 27 2007 | Kevin Jackson

Posted on 02/28/2007 6:40:39 AM PST by Alex Murphy

A creative new movie released by Five and Two Pictures merges two worlds that have never been seen before together - UFOs and Christianity.

Unidentified, written and produced by Christian director Rich Christiano, attempts to fuse these unique subjects while still promoting a Christian message.

“The subject of UFOs is interesting but also very confusing,” Christiano said in a release. “This film aims to bring some rhyme and reason to this subject from a biblical perspective.”

The production tries to deal with UFO issues such as whether they are hoaxes, if aliens are real and a threat, and whether they play into the end times.

The plot follows the story of two investigative reporters who are assigned to an unusual topic. While driving home, a 38-year-old man was allegedly taken from his vehicle and abducted by aliens. The two journalists must reveal the truth to this claim. One considers the assertion while the other rejects it. Along the way, they are both caught off guard by what they find.

The cast includes many newcomers including Christian superstar Rebecca St. James in a supporting role.

In the Christian community, the film has been receiving a lot of praise as being stimulating as well as Christ-centered.

“Unidentified is very thought-provoking and will hold your attention all the way to the end,” explained Tom Saab, director for Christian Film Festivals of America, in a release. “This movie will enlighten, challenge and motivate everyone who sees it to follow the Lord. It certainly gives you something to think about.”

The movie can now be purchased on DVD.

Some theories about Jesus-as-an-alien or aliens-as-angels have been around since at least the early seventies. I don't believe such stuff, but this isn't the first time the two subjects have been linked.

When the Passion OF THE Christ CAME OUT hOLLYWEIRD decided to do movies about Christ , his life and his teachings. This is what they said, but what did they do. They made movies alright. they took every chance they could get to run down our religion and our Faith in the kindness man who ever lived. Why is Holly weird afraid of Jesus the Christ, tell you why? They cannot live like they do and they cannot get people to go to their dirty movies. They made more of a fuss of Gore then they did Gibson and he made a fortune telling people the truth of how Our LORD SUFFERED for us. Holly weird hates middle and religious America. Christ says pray for them , I agree but sometimes I wish Holly weird would just fall in the hell they create for others.

I've read people trying to link the Nephilim, demons, and UFOs so this is hardly the first time.

It is hard to ignore this link when there are specific references in the bible to flying unidentified craft, among other puzzling topics (such as the quote "there were giants in the world at that time")

Yeah, uh huh. In high school in 1969 or 70 I wrote a short story about some 12-year-old getting taken by a UFO and altered. Afterwards he went back to his life in the Middle East and went about his father's business using apparently miraculous abilities. I don't think this concept is anything new. Perhaps they mean UFOs and Christianity in a non-debunking mode. But even then, some people have tried to explain UFOs and aliens as a modern day imagery of demons and angels. Dean Koontz did this in The Taking. In it the earth is apparently visited by what people think are UFOs but are really angels/demons cleaning the evil out of the earth and leaving behind the righteous (at least he got the end times scenario right).

I don't know if this movie has any merit or not but there is a very strong connection between UFO's and the Bible.
For example - Ezekiel.

Certainly the probability exists that SOME [few overtly, I think] good angels MAY use UFO type craft on occasion. My own bias is that Holy Spirit does not need them.

Certainly, imho, the bulk--99.9%? of the better known ET types are in cahoots with satan toward setting up the one world government predicted in Scripture.

Do you have a link for the "free online, I think" one you mentioned in the other thread?

Pondering how to answer the rest of that post. . . by and by.

Thx much.

This is the link you gave in the other thread.

http://www.netro.ca/disclosure/npccmenu.htm

UFO's and God = I agree about the Holy Spirit not needing one but in Ezekiel His throne was on the craft. As far as the rest there are many references to "coming in the clouds, or whirlwinds" by both the good and the bad. I worry the world won't be ready for it as we're being so misled.
