Similarities Between UFO Encounters And Demonic Encounters
Rev. Daniel R. Jennings, M.A.
A man lies sound asleep in bed when he is suddenly awoken. He
senses a presence in the room, though he cannot see anyone there. Suddenly it
appears next to him, peering down at him with a horrifying look. He lies
paralyzed, unable to move. The creature begins to speak to him telepathically,
telling him that he has been chosen to fulfill a mission and will be given
special powers to do so. Things begin to grow hazy and soon the man is
unconscious. When he wakes up in the morning he has bruises and feels as if he
has been sexually violated. Over time these visitations continue and he begins
to develop psychic powers.
So, what exactly is happening here? The answer to that depends
upon the time that you live in. Most people today would readily acknowledge
this as a typical “alien abduction” story but what if you asked someone who
lived one or two or even ten centuries ago. How would they define this? The
answer may surprise you. “Alien abduction” experiences have been occurring for
centuries; the only difference is that those who experienced them in the past
usually recognized them as being something evil from a demonic force. It is
only in modern times that large numbers of people in Christian countries have
began to refer to the atypical “alien abduction” as something that is not demonic.
Now all this is not to say that there may be other explanations
for some of the “alien abduction phenomena” that are occurring. Some can surely
be explained by sleep paralysis, nightmares or other natural phenomena. But
some, however, seem to be unexplainable by any natural phenomena that we are
aware of and have all the trappings of a legitimate demonic encounter. The following chart was created to show just how
similar a “demonic encounter” is to an “alien encounter”. On the left are
recorded cases of demons appearing to people and treating them in exactly the
same way that “aliens” are reported as treating people in modern times. On the
right are the recorded cases of “aliens” appearing to people and shown to be
treating them the exact same way that demons have treated people in the past
when they appeared to them. Click on either a similarity below or scroll down

“For
there is a man who was once a scholar, and is now believed to be a priest in
the diocese of Freising, who used to say that at one time he had been bodily carried through the air by a
devil, and taken to the most remote parts.” (Heinrich
Kramer & James Sprenger, Malleus
Maleficarum: Or, The Hammer of Witches, Part 2, Question 1, Chapter 3)
“At
Mohlburg, Thuringia, not far from Erfurt, there was a musician, who gained
his living by playing at merry-makings. This man came to the minister of his
parish, and complained that he was every day assailed by the devil, who
threatened to carry him off, because he had played at an unlawful marriage.
The minister consoled him, prayed for him, recited to him numerous passages
of Scripture, directed against the devil; and, with some other pious men,
watched over the unfortunate man, day and night, fastening the doors and
windows, so that he might not be carried
off. At length the musician said: ‘I feel that Satan cannot harm my
soul, but he will assuredly remove my body’; and that very night, at eight
o’clock, though the watch was doubled, the devil came in the shape of a
furious wind, broke the windows, and carried
off the musician…” (Martin Luther, Table
Talk, Entry DCXXVIII) |
“24-year-old
José Antonio da Silva, an enlisted soldier, was fishing on a lagoon when
suddenly he heard voices, became aware of figures moving behind him, and felt
a burst of light strike his leg. He dropped his fishing rod and fell to his
knees. Two beings, about four feet tall, wearing
aluminumlike suits and what appeared to be helmets, seized him and dragged him to an object sitting on a dirt road.
The object was shaped like an upright cylinder and had black platforms at
each end. The soldier was taken inside, where the beings put one of their
'helmets' on him...Da Silva felt
the craft rise. The beings talked animatedly among themselves in a
language he did not recognize. After a long period of travel, he felt a
jarring that suggested their craft had landed. The soldier was then
blindfolded and led to a large room, where they removed the wrap from his
eyes.” (Abduction of José
Antonio da Silva)* *Some
of the cases listed in the “Alien Encounter” section involved the use of
hypnosis. I do not recommend or encourage the use of hypnosis under any
circumstances as I fear that it has the potential to be both dangerous and
misleading on both a mental and a spiritual level. |

“Before many days had passed a messenger came to me
from the Chang family, informing me that their troubles had increased, and
begging me to come to their help. They told me that two women in the family
had been possessed by demons for several days, and were still in a state of unconsciousness.”
(John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Appendix 1.b) “The morning following the baptism of Mrs. Kwo, one
of the Christians in the village informed my traveling companion, Mr.
Leyenberger, and myself, that a woman living in a neighboring house, who was
a spirit-medium, was then under the influence of a demon, and was improvising
[poetical] verses referring to us…We were desirous of seeing this
woman…Entering the house we saw her…appearance was that of a corpse; the face
expressionless, and no part of the body stirred except the lips and tongue;
which were giving forth utterances with the rapidity and uniformity of
clockwork. Everything she said was in measured verse, and was chanted to an
unvarying tune…Her daughter-in-law, at our suggestion, tried to arouse her,
calling her loudly by name. But it seemed like talking to the dead…After
watching her for some minutes we went to attend morning prayers with the
Christians. On our return she presented exactly the same appearance, but her
utterances had ceased, and she was
speechless, motionless, and apparently unconscious. Her
daughter-in-law told us that it was useless trying to awaken her; but that
sooner or later she would come back to consciousness herself.” (John L.
Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Chapter 3) |
“After a
short period of time, he was shocked to see three beings approaching the
tree. Two of them seemed to be a humanoid-type of being, while the third was
more robot-like. Shock became utter panic now, as the three began to shake
the tree in an attempt to dislodge him. He vividly recalls a white vapor
being shot from the robot's mouth; which
rendered him unconscious.” (Alien Encounter in
Cisco County) “In the
narrative, Robert said the encounter occurred Sunday, Dec. 12, 2004, when he
and Anne saw a ball of light in the night sky about 7:10 p.m. He said they
saw the apparition through a sliding door leading to a deck off the kitchen.
He described “a huge ball of brilliant white light coming toward the house
from the west,” slightly above the tops of trees…Robert said the light fully
engulfed Anne, who was lifted off the deck, prompting Robert to open the
sliding door with one hand and grab Anne's waist by other. He said he pulled
her into the house and the shut door…During the ordeal, Anne went unconscious. When she came around, she said she
remembered seeing the blue light and that Robert described it as square, but
could not remember any details after that.” (Massachusetts
Residents Share Details of Reported UFO Encounter) “According
to Moody's subsequent recollection, after being overcome by numbness on
August 13, 1975, he had observed two beings approaching his car. About six feet tall, the creatures wore skintight
black clothing. After a brief scuffle with them, he was rendered unconscious. He awoke on a slab inside the
craft. His limbs felt leaden and immovable. Next to him stood the alien
leader.” (Abduction of Air Force

“At last
when the dragon could not even thus overthrow Antony, but saw himself thrust
out of his heart, gnashing his teeth as it is written, and as it were beside
himself, he appeared to Antony like
a black boy, taking a visible shape…” (Athanasius of Alexandria, Life
Of Saint Antony, 6) “The
demons…when they cannot deceive the heart openly with foul pleasures they
approach in different guise, and thenceforth shaping displays they attempt to
strike fear, changing their shapes, taking
the forms of women, wild beasts, creeping things, gigantic bodies,
and troops of soldiers. But
not even then need ye fear their deceitful displays. For they are nothing and
quickly disappear, especially if a man fortify himself beforehand with faith
and the sign of the cross...At another time they assume the appearance of monks and feign the speech
of holy men, that by their similarity they may deceive and thus drag their
victims where they will.” (Athanasius of Alexandria, Life
Of Saint Antony, 23, 25) “One
day, by the permission of God, the devil, the enemy of all good men, knocking
at the knight’s gate, in the form
and dress of a pilgrim, sought hospitality in the name of St.
Thomas.” (Concerning

Thomas In India To His Own Country [Caesar of Heisterbach, Dist. VIII. Cap.

“Khoury
told Chalker that his encounter of July 23, 1992 began at 7:30 in the morning
while he was in bed. He had recently been injured at work and was taking pain
medication. Earlier that morning, he had driven his wife to work, then
returned home and went back to bed for a short while. Suddenly, he bolted
wide awake and sat up. There were two
humanoid females sitting on the bed, both entirely naked. These two women looked human in nearly every way. They had well
proportioned adult bodies. One looked somewhat Asian, with straight dark
shoulder-length hair and dark eyes. The other looked perhaps Scandinavian,
with light-colored (“maybe bluish”) eyes and long blond hair that fell
half-way down her back. Her hair was especially notable to Peter Khoury. “I
had never seen a hair style like that. It was curled something like Farrah
Fawcett, but to an extreme...It just looked really exotic in a way,” he told
Chalker.” (DNA Sample From Khoury
Abduction Raises Big Questions) “A
police officer contacted British UFO experts after seeing three aliens
examining a freshly made crop circle near Avebury, Wiltshire…The sergeant,
who has not been named, was off-duty when he saw the figures standing in a
field near Silbury Hill, and stopped his car to investigate. However, as he approached the 'men' – all over 6ft tall with blond hair – he heard
“the sound of static electricity” and the trio ran away ''faster than any man
he had ever seen''. The officer returned to his home in Marlborough,
Wiltshire, and contacted paranormal experts and told them he had spotted a
UFO.” (UFO Alert: Police Officer

“M— S—,
a peasant, at fifty-four, had, when twenty-two years of age every night for
three months, an attack of violent nightmare and hallucinations of
hearing…When she was between thirty and forty years of age there gradually
appeared a disease occurring in paroxysms, attacks occurred every two or
three days, and in the interval the patient was perfectly well. They
commenced with pains in the head, loins and neck; palpitation, anxiety, great
exhaustion; occasionally symptoms of globus and hysterical convulsions. She
was obliged to lie in bed, became completely apathetic, could no longer
connect her thoughts, and there was
manifested as a mental anomaly, an internal contradiction against her own
thoughts and conclusions —a constant immediate opposition against all which
she thought and did. An inward voice which she, however, did not hear in her
ear, opposed everything which she herself would do (for example, even
against the mere lying in bed, which her condition renders necessary),
especially, however, against all elevation of the sentiments—praying, etc.
The voice is always wicked when the
patient would do good, and sometimes calls to her, but without being heard
externally: “Take a knife and kill yourself.” The patient, who is a
clever woman, says on this subject, that she almost believes that a strange
being, a demon, is within her, so certain is she that it is not herself who
does this.” (John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Chapter 9) “Both of
them were well-known as sincere and consistent Christians until their deaths.
They declared that for many years, before they became Christians, they
submitted to, and obeyed the behests of the possessing demons from necessity,
being constrained and intimidated by severe physical and mental inflictions and torments…” (John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 11) “The
demons, therefore, if they see all Christians, and monks especially,
labouring cheerfully and advancing, first make an attack by temptation and
place hindrances to hamper our way, to wit, evil thoughts. But we need not fear their suggestions, for by prayer,
fasting, and faith in the Lord their attack immediately fails.” (Athanasius
of Alexandria, Life
Of Saint Antony, 23) |
“Their
eyes were also large, and extended around the side of their heads. Michael
began to sense a kind of mental
communication with the two beings.” (The Buff Ledge Abduction) “She
said she was on a road near New London when a round, silver craft landed. She
said an alien walked out and invited her to his ship. He was about 5-feet,
2-inches tall and was wearing a silver suit and helmet, she said. The ship flew through space for a short while the
alien communicated with her
telepathically, she said. He told her that aliens, at least the good
kind, feared for humanity because of violence and greed.” (Fond du Lac
Area is Hot Spot for UFO Activity) “When I
lifted my eyes and looked at the back fence, which is about 25 feet from
where I was standing, I observed two creatures (extraterrestrials) standing
close to and behind the chain-link fence looking at me…The aliens were
staring at me and I was staring at them. I think that they were communicating with me telepathically
because they were reading my mind when I said mentally, “I'm going to wake up
my husband, Nelson.”“ (A Close Encounter
with Alien Beings-Eyewitness Account) “The
leader asked Moody telepathically
if he was prepared to behave peacefully. When Moody agreed to do so, the
leader applied a rodlike device to his back which relieved the paralysis.” (Abduction of Air Force Sergeant

“Before
my eyes a young lad was brought to him possessed by an evil spirit. So,
putting one hand on his head and the other on his heart, he prayed so much
that he made him hang in midair.”
(Palladius, The
Lausiac History, 27:22) “Julia
also exhibited enormous strength. Despite the religious sisters and three
others holding her down with all their might, they struggled to restrain her.
Remarkably, for about 30 minutes, she
actually levitated about half a foot in the air.” (Richard E.
Gallagher, Among
The Many Counterfeits A Case Of Demon Possession, New Oxford Review, March
2008) “There
lives another priest in Oberdorf, a town near Landshut, who was at that time
a friend of that one of us, who saw with his own eyes such a transportation,
and tells how the man was borne on
high with arms stretched out, shouting but not whimpering. And the
cause, as he tells it, was as follows. A number of scholars had met together
to drink beer, and they all agreed that the one who fetched the beer should
not have to pay anything. And so one of them was going to fetch the beer, and
on opening the door saw a thick cloud before the grunsel, and returning in
terror told his companions why he would not go for the drink. Then that one
of them who was carried away said angrily: “Even if the devil were there, I
shall fetch the drink.” And, going out, he was carried through the air in the sight of all the others.” (Heinrich Kramer & James Sprenger, Malleus
Maleficarum: Or, The Hammer of Witches, Part 2, Questions 1, Chapter 3) |
“Hickson,
frozen in fear and unbelief, was grabbed by two of these creatures, and the
third one took Parker, who fainted from fright. Hickson would later relate
that when the beings put their arms under his body to support him, he felt
numb all over. He was then floated
into a brightly-lit room inside of the UFO. Inside this room, he floated, along with an
eye-like device which examined him all over. After his ordeal, Hickson was left floating, while the beings
left the room, probably to examine Parker. Approximately 20 minutes after the
ordeal had begun, it was over, and Hickson was floated back outside of the strange craft. Parker was
crying, and praying on the ground. Only a moment or two later, the craft rose
straight up into the air and disappeared.” (The 1973 Pascagoula,
Mississippi Abduction) “I then
put my knee on the lowest part of the UFO craft, and crawled the
circumference of the UFO. When I reached the opposite part of the craft,
there was a small dark hole. I looked inside and saw the most beautiful
lights one could imagine…I awoke walking back to the housing apartments, as I
entered my apartment my mother was combing my sister's hair. I was
disoriented, as I did not recognize my own sister, and asked my mother if she
was Chinese, as in elongated eyes…My mother became agitated with me and sent
me to my room, and I, at this time, sat down in my red sofa chair, when all
of a sudden I levitated upward to
the ceiling.” (UFO and Alien
Encounters) “A man
and woman in Billerica claim their lives have been altered since a huge,
luminous object they said appeared over their porch one winter evening, levitating the woman,
blistering the man's hand, and leaving white, powdery material that quickly
disappeared afterward.” (Massachusetts

“She frequently
spoke as if she was another person, saying to her father, “This girl is not
thine, but mine. I have got possession of her, and I will keep her;” with
many expressions of the same kind. She often seemed to be in a trance, and said she saw
many visions; sometimes of heaven or hell, or judgment; sometimes of things
which she said would shortly come to pass.” (John Wesley, Journal
of John Wesley, June 5, 1753) |
“Their

“Two
cases similar to the above have occurred in connection with our mission
station in Chimi, Shan-tung, China. They were described to me in detail by a
theological student whose home was in that neighborhood, and who was
familiarly acquainted with the subjects of both cases, one being a near
relative. Both of them were well-known as sincere and consistent Christians
until their deaths. They declared that for many years, before they became
Christians, they submitted to, and obeyed the behests of the possessing
demons from necessity, being constrained and intimidated by severe physical
and mental inflictions and torments; that they believed that the actions
purporting to be performed by the demons through them as their agents or
instruments were in fact so performed; that they had no means to rid
themselves of the dominion of the demons until they heard of Christianity.
One of these persons, an aunt of the theological student, is said to have
had, when in the abnormal state, remarkable
clairvoyant powers.” (John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Chapter 11) “The demon often bade us not
to be afraid of it, saying it would not injure us, but that, on the contrary,
it would help us in various ways; that it would instruct me in the healing art, so that people would flock to me
to be cured of their diseases. This proved to be true; and soon from
my own village the people came bringing their children to be healed by the
aid of the demon…He also frequently indicated his plan for my future
life and employment. It was that through
his assistance I should grow more and more skilled in healing diseases.
The people would soon be willing to make a return for my services. In time of
harvest I should go about from family to family getting contributions of
grain, and these contributions as they accumulated should be applied to the
support of the neighboring temple.” (John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 2) |
“Rodwell
says that after being involved with over 1,000 “experiencers” (alien
abductees) nothing had prepared her for what she discovered. “My clients
include both adults and children who exhibit transformative changes such as telepathy, clairvoyance and healing
as they become more spiritually aware and begin to operate on a
multi-dimensional band of reality”, says Rodwell.” (Some Children
Demonstrate Unusual Abilities After ET Encounters) “She
told me the odd activity started about age 6. She recalls strange people
being around her and being away from home but was never sure if she was
dreaming the events or remembering them. She would have these encounters at
all different times…This continued until she was 12. At that point she knew
something was wrong…By the time she was a teen this woman realized she was
different from other kids. She was much smarter then the average kids her age
and was developing psychic
abilities that were very strong and very frightening to her. She could look at someone she did not know and
understand immediately things about them. She would know their names, where
they lived, what they were thinking and most of all if they were a good or
bad person. She could tell her friends what was going to happen to them weeks
before the events occurred. Her differences were separating her from friends
and family and she was becoming withdrawn and odder by the day.” (The Abductee) |

“The
spirit came at intervals, sometimes every few days, and sometimes after a
period of a month or more. At these times I felt a fluttering of the heart,
and a sense of fear and inability to control myself, and was obliged to sit
or lie down. I would tell my wife when these symptoms came on, and she would
run for a neighboring woman less timid than herself, and they two burned
incense to the demon in my stead, and received its directions, which they afterward communicated to me, for
though spoken by my lips I had been entirely unconscious of them.”
(John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 2) |

(John L. Nevius, Demon

next day or two she remained in bed, and on Saturday night following she again had a dream. The evil spirit seemed
to seize her by the neck,
commanding her to leave Foochow at once, and return to her home, or it would
kill her. However instead of obeying she ran by herself Sunday morning to the church, and while there the pain which she had been feeling
all the morning in her neck left her, and
she experienced a strangely happy sensation; and since that day she has had
no return of those attacks which she had been subject to continually for
three years previously, and to obtain a cure for which she, poor woman, had
presented many costly offerings to the idols.” (John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 7) |
“He woke
up alone near the town of Vitoria, about 200 miles from where he had been
fishing. He was dehydrated and hungry, but drank from a stream and was able
to catch some fish as he still had his rod with him. Only his identity card, which the aliens had
examined, had disappeared. He had a
swollen knee where the ray had struck him and three open wounds on his neck where the helmet had rubbed
against his skin. He had been away four and a half days.” (Abduction of José Antonio da
Silva) “The
creature smelled like nobody's business. It had a strange smell, a
throat-tightening, chemical smell, which smelled like rotten eggs, and also
like hot copper [sulphur-like], a very strong smell. And the creature saw me
looking at it, and it looked down at me and, all of a sudden, I felt a terrible, awful pain on my
left thigh, as if a sword had been driven into my left thigh. I screamed in pain, horrible, calling out
for my mother, and the creature placed it's hand over my mouth. You know,
sir, it was like-if you want to know how that felt, please sir, take the leg
of a chicken, a live chicken, and place it against your lips. That was how
the creature's hand felt upon my mouth.” (Famous
African Elder Recalls Extraterrestrial Abduction) “Antonio
was subsequently ditched from the craft by the helmeted beings…He arrived
[home] at five o’clock in the morning. He was very pale and trembling. I saw
that he had two bruise marks on his
chin. I gave him some very strong coffee to drink, but then he
vomited a yellowish substance. He didn’t want to eat the hen I’d cooked for
him. Then he told me what had happened.” (Antonio Villas

“A
friend of mine who was a missionary in China reported similar things among
the Chinese. We have here a problem well known in the history of missions,
that of fox-possession. Girls who are by day perfectly normal
psychologically, and go about their work quite regularly, are at night sexually plagued by apparitions.
Figures appear with the head of a fox. As soon as the figure draws near, the
fox-head changes into the handsome face of a man. These girls suffer
dreadfully from these nocturnal visitations. It is worthy of note that girls
who turn to Christ are delivered of this. Christian Chinese girls are not
subject to this affliction. (Kurt Koch, Christian
Counseling and Occultism, 2:2.h, Ex. 85) “I saw, he writes, and heard the
confession of a virgin in a religious habit, who said at first that she had
never been a consenting party to fornication, but at the same time have been
known [sexually] in this way. This I could not believe, but narrowly charged
and exhorted her, with the most solemn adjurations, to speak the truth on
peril of her very soul. At last, weeping bitterly, she acknowledged that she
had been corrupted rather in mind than in body; and that though she had
afterwards grieved almost to death, and had daily confessed with tears, yet
by no device or study or art could she be delivered from an Incubus devil, nor yet by the sign of the Cross, nor by
Holy Water, which are specially ordained for the expulsion of devils, nor
even by the Sacrament of the Body of Our Lord, which even the Angels fear.
But at last after many years of prayer and fasting she was delivered.” (Heinrich Kramer & James Sprenger, Malleus
Maleficarum: Or, The Hammer of Witches, Part 2, Question 2, Chapter 1) “And the
devil, unhappy wight, one night even took upon him the shape of a woman and imitated all her acts simply to
beguile Antony. But he, his mind filled with Christ and the nobility inspired
by Him, and considering the spirituality of the soul, quenched the coal of
the other's deceit.” (Athanasius of Alexandria, Life
Of Saint Antony, 5) |
“I will
start my story from the time of the abduction in the night, it was around
2.00 AM...In time, I began to remember more things about my abduction, like
being forced to drink some kind of liquid. I also had sex with one of them, which I enjoyed very much. It
seemed that he was made for me. When I missed my period, I went to the
doctor, and he told me half of my eggs were missing, and I had liquid inside
of me. He gave me some pills for it, and told me to come back after all the
pills were gone. Finally, I dischared the liquid, but the doctor never told
me what it was.” (The Abduction of
Mitral Kh-foshtomi) “Alone
in the chamber…the frightened farmer would receive another unexpected visit:
this time from a nude,
white-skinned female with slanted blue eyes, high cheekbones, thin lips,
straight blond hair, broad hips and heavy thighs. And this was precisely the
least likely part of the abduction experience: Antonio claimed to have
entered a state of progressive, uncontrollable sexual excitement that he attributed to the liquid that
had been rubbed onto his flesh. He made
love twice to the unknown female.” (Antonio

“‘I told you I'd kill you! He's
mine!’ The screeching voice sounded nothing like Bret's--it reverberated with
a raspy, hollow sound. The August air hung hot and heavy, but I instantly
felt chilled and my body began to shake. Still suspicious that he was on
something, I sniffed the air. I
nearly gagged on the rotten-egg smell of sulfur. ‘In the name of Jesus Christ and by the power of
his blood, I command you to come out of Bret.’…Bret instantly relaxed and
stared at the two young men sitting on his chest while he laid sprawled on
the balcony. (James Watkins, Demons: Possession Or

“Looking
up to see them fly over, he was shocked to see two red, glowing, elongated
objects descending from the skies. As they came ever closer, their shape was
defined more as disc-shaped. As he stood mesmerized by the sight, one of the
craft abruptly stopped and hovered in midair…Michalak had been wearing his
protective welding glasses earlier, and now they protected his eyes from the
brilliant purple lights shining through openings in the front of the craft.
He could now smell something like
sulfur, and hear a type of hissing sound.” (1967, The Falcon Lake
Landing) “As he
watched it for about 5 minutes, he saw 2 figures. These figures had antennae
on their helmets (heads) and they turned and looked at him. The yard light
dimmed when the object hovered and he remembered that there was a sulfur smell in the air.” (UFO Saucer with
Occupants Reported in Massachusetts) “Two
children out herding cows in Cussac in 1967 came upon a sphere hovering over
a field with little black beings running around underneath. The strange
creatures were sucked into the sphere headfirst, which then flew away moving
in an upward spiral pattern. The frightened children ran home crying to tell
their parents, who summoned the gendarmerie. The adults who returned to the
scene remarked a strong odour of
sulphur that lasted for days as well as burn marks on the grass five
metres in diameter.” (Half of French UFOs

“The
next night a spirit came, apparently in a dream, and said to me: ‘I am Wang
Mu-niang, of Yuin-men san, (the name of a neighboring mountain). I have taken
up abode in your house.’ It said this repeatedly. I had awakened and was
conscious of the presence of the
spirit. I knew it was a shie-kwei,
(evil spirit), and as such I resisted it, and cursed it, saying: ‘I will have
nothing to do with you.’” (John L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 2) “The
next day or two she remained in bed,
and on Saturday night following she again had a
dream. The evil spirit seemed to seize her by the neck, commanding her to
leave Foochow at once, and return to her home, or it would kill her.” (John
L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 7) “In many
cases of possession the first symptoms occur during sleep, in dreams.” (John
L. Nevius, Demon
Possession And Allied Themes, Ch. 4) |
“Whitley
Strieber is one of the most well known UFO researchers in the area of alien
abduction, and alien implants. His well known book, “Communion” is a UFO
classic...In upper state New York over the 1985 Christmas holidays, Strieber
was staying in his isolated cabin with his wife and son…At approximately
11:00 PM on the 26th of December, he activated the [alarm] system, and the
family retired for the night. After a couple of hours, he was awakened by an
unusual sound. He felt that the security of his cabin had been breached. He
was soon shocked to see a creature in
his bedroom.” (The Abduction of Whitley
Strieber) “You
will have to bear with me while I tell you of an incident that took place in
my life…I am perhaps 3 or 4 years old [at the time it happened]. I am in bed and the room is
darkened but not entirely black. As I lay
in bed I was aware of something moving around in my room. Finally I
could see something small standing at the foot or my bed. It was a little
creature that looked a like a monkey or a man. It was maybe a foot high or a
little bigger, but not much more than that. It was very ugly. It had very big
eyes and a unusually large head for it size…Outside my bedroom window I could see very odd, soft flashing lights
that were high up in the air. There was no sound…The following night it came again...This
little creature came one more time…I screamed, my parents came and saw the
flashing lights. My dad ran out side and saw something off in the distance
high in the sky.” (Eyewitness Relates
Encounter with Alien Creature) “The
time was nearly 05:00 when an unexpected visitor appeared before her. She
felt neither fear nor uncertainty. She only recalls having felt an odd sense
of peace upon seeing that “body” of gelatinous material “the color of honey”. No questions were asked at first. But she later
inquired: “What do you seek here with your presence?” This is the contact
experience of Violeta Ortiz Castro last Sunday (December 2nd) when an
extraterrestrial entity appeared in
her bedroom.” (Mexico: A Schoolteacher's
Alien Encounter) |
As the above chart shows there are at least twelve similarities
between Demonic Encounters and “Alien Encounters”. I think that the experiences
are so similar that one can conclude that they are in reality one and the same.

I have listed the above twelve similarities between demonic
encounters and alien encounters but there is actually one more similarity
between the two that needs to be discussed. Throughout history Christians have
demonstrated that demons will submit to the name of Jesus but what about
“aliens”? Will they also submit to the
name of Jesus?” The answer, proven by actual experiences, is YES!

Aliens Submitting To
The Name Of Jesus |
|
In 1973 a
woman named Carel Luck was living in Virginia with her husband and two
children. One night she awoke in her bedroom to find herself paralyzed and
unable to move anything except her eyes. To the left of the bedroom she could
see three figures floating into the room out of the walk in closet. Her first
thought was “How did they get in there?” to which they mentally communicated
to her that they had come in through a large, second story window and then
floated through the wall into her closet. They then began to share that they
were going to levitate her paralyzed body, ram it through the bedroom window
and drop her to her death. And they wanted Carel to know that her husband was
going to be blamed for the death. Overwhelmed
with terror Carel tried to scream to wake up her husband but was unable to do
so—even her vocal cords were paralyzed! But then she began to pray. She tried
to call out “JESUS” but nothing would come out. Once again she tried and
finally she was able to say the name of “Jesus”. At the name of Jesus the strange beings disappeared into the air.
Her ability to move returned and she quickly woke up her husband and told him
what happened. Time
passed on and over twenty years after this event Carel was given a book on
alien abduction, a topic that she did not really know much about. While
reading through the book it struck her at how similar the people’s
experiences were to hers. Then she saw a drawing in the book that one of the
abductees had made of his alien abductors. They were the same beings that had come into her room in 1973.
(The
Terror That Comes In The Night) ________________________ Joe
Jordan, a UFO researcher and Christian, shares how he counseled a man in his
thirties who one night saw strange lights in the woods near his home which
apparently startled his dogs. He got out of bed to yell at his dogs and then
went back to bed when suddenly he began to experience paralysis and a grey
fog entered the room. He couldn’t see anything but sensed that a definite
presence had entered the room. He then felt himself begin to be lifted off of
the bed and sensed that something like a probe had been inserted into his
rectum. Horrified, he struggled to yell out (due to his paralysis) but was
finally able to call out in some way (he is not sure if he did so mentally or
vocally) “Jesus, Jesus!” When he did that there was a clear sense that his calling out to Jesus had hurt
whatever it was that was holding him up in the air with the probe. He
felt the probe removed from his rectum and he fell down upon the bed. As soon
as he hit the bed his wife was awoken by the fall and asked him why he was
jumping on the bed (The Terror That
Comes In The Night). |
Stories like the above are not uncommon. For more testimonies
like this the reader is referred to Online Testimonies that Alien Abductions
Stop And Can Be Terminated as a Life Pattern In the Name and Authority of
Jesus Christ.
My Own Testimony
I have never had an “alien abduction” but I have had several
times in my life where I have went to bed, fell asleep and then suddenly found
myself lying in my bed, paralyzed, and aware of a demonic presence in the room.
In these experiences it was very clear that the presence was demonic (in other
words it was not claiming to be an alien and I assumed that it was demonic—I
just had this awareness in the experiences that this entity was demonic). I
remember one in particular where the demon had taken the form of a stone Mayan
Calendar kind of false god and was going to crush my head. In another a demon
would come and touch me on the hand in kind of a taunting way. Another time a
demon was trying to choke me. In each of these cases I would be in my room, in my
own bed and usually paralyzed. In most of these experiences I would always
struggle to yell out the name of Jesus but, due to the paralysis, would be
unable to do so. However, as I struggled to cry out I would eventually be able
to finally squeeze out the name of Jesus and every time that I did so the
experience would end. Now, if I did not know anything about demons or Satan I
would probably assume that these experiences were “alien encounters” because
that is the most common way that society defines an experience like this. There
really isn’t much difference between what I have experienced and your typical
“alien encounter” with the only
difference being that I was able to stop it.
And the good news for anyone who is being troubled by demons
masquerading as “aliens” is that if they will place their faith and trust in
Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, repent from their sins, be baptized and
lead a life that seeks Him first in all things they too can experience that
same victory over “alien abductions”.
