As a Christian I find no evidence in the Bible that God created any other forms of life not on Earth.

As if God owes you a full accounting of his actions.

Human arrogance....on display.

Most people who believe in aliens are also unsaved by the grace of God by faith in the finished atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ; who created the heavens and the earth and all that dwell therein.

The author must have meant non-angelic forms of life.

IF we actually had proof of “aliens,” and were I Satan, passing them off as fallen angels would be a device I would use to distract humanity from God and Jesus.

The objects themselves and even the topic would form as a sort of idolatry.

I think it is possible.

A better answer, IMHO,
comes from C.S. Lewis

Read the Space Trilogy

- Out of the Silent Planet
- Peralandra
- That Hideous Strength

It discusses a “Cosmology” where
Earth is a war zone and
we are in the occupied territory of fallen angels

What if he did but just didn't tell us about it?

I don’t have any problem with their being ‘aliens’ or other life forms. And I don’t remember anywhere in the Bible where it says ‘earth’ and it’s solar system was the only creation of God. After all, he was a master scientist.

I do think that labelling ‘aliens’ as being ‘fallen’ angels is a little bit of stretch as we have no clue where they came from. I also think that when God’s ready for the universe to diversify itself he will allow it, but good Lord, earthlings have a long way to go before we’re ready.

I mean, c’mon...we have neighbors on our streets that we eyeball as suspicious characters because we have never spoken to them before. Drop an ‘alien’ into that scenario and an innocent Martian would be hacked to death in seconds!

I think God warned us in several chapters about dealing with ‘spirits’ that are or are not ‘of God’. As for me, I’ll just wait until HE decides to reveal all his creations and not vest that authority in man.

This also begs the question; could fallen angels really be aliens?

END TIMES & UFO PING LIST PINGS

VERY GOOD NARRATIVE . . . except for poor paragraphing [probably because of the stray lingering html paragraph code left near the end of it . . . . of the last chunk leaves many not reading it . . . I’ll redo it:

########################

Here’s something written by Jim Gregg in response to this article-

Indeed, the fallen angels are quite busy trying to undermine God’s creation. Originally, all angels were created by God to carry out the specifics of terra-forming all those planets that were and will be inhabited in the future.

Angels are not married, nor are they given in marriage. So, angels are created without all the aggressions we have (They don’t need all those troublesome hormones we have).

We were created a little lower than the angels, it says. They all have their specific areas of purpose. some will handle the garden while others will attend to the development and placement of humankind on inhabitable planets.

But, all those angels (who remained with God) continue happily to obey God. Satan is the author of the flying saucer. They must sit back and laugh at the mysticism that humans stir up among themselves.

There is, without a doubt, life like we humans abounding in the universe. Scientists would be surprised at the commonality of life.....But they would be mostly amazed at the quantity of it. The fact that other planets are inhabited does not disprove God...It proves it all the more.

God continues this very minute to create new planets, to harvest those that are ready to be harvested....and most amazingly to me provides the way to salvage all his creation back to himself.

It’s true about Jesus. He and He alone is the key to our salvation. It’s the same every where in the universe. But be careful to put things into perspective....God calls us sheep. We have our puspose in creation also. We can understand all mysteries and have knowledge of all that is contained in creation and know the purpose of it all....But without love the Bible says that we are like a clanging symbol.

Our ultimate purpose is to obey God....and that’s the undebateable, indisputeable truth.

###################################

An excellent recent in-depth study of this issue is Lights in the Sky and Little Green Men: a Rational Christian Look at Ufos and Extraterrestrrials, by Ross, Clark and Samples. Here is a synopsis from memory.

After eliminating rational explanations for 95% or so of UFO reports, there remains residual UFOs (RUFOs). The challenge is to explain these.

Interstellar travel is shown to be practically impossible, thus eliminating extraterrestrial explanations.

RUFOs exhibit the ability to defy the laws of physics in various ways, which argues strongly for a demonic (fallen angel) explanation.

Additionally, the authors conclude that one's self-exposure to occult practices permits this access by demons.
