'THEY' ON MT GRAHAM?
The Apache Creation Myth is telling in this regard, as a particular version involves the “One Who Lives Above” and who descended in a flying disc at the start of creation.
While no single “Apache Creation Myth” dominates all tribal beliefs, most groups share key precepts as well as symbolism within their oral histories.
Besides the creator who rides in a heavenly disc, a Dragon with the power of speech turns up, bargaining with men, as well as supernatural gateways associated with mountains (ch’íná’itíh) through which spirit beings can come.
Sometimes these spirits are represented by the Owl (to an Apache Indian, dreaming of an Owl signified approaching death, while the Hopi see the Burrowing Owl [Ko’ko, “Watcher of the dark”] as the god of the dead and the underground), which is fascinating given the connection with “alien abduction” accounts where the Owl is a disguise wherein the abductee is led to believe the bug-eyed alien in their memory was actually an Owl they had seen somewhere and had lodged in their memory.
Owls have been associated throughout Christian history with sorcery and flying witches and the source of these legends seem to mirror many abduction tales, which we shall consider later.
Suffice to say these
ancient native ideas involving flying discs, flying creators, spirit
lights, Owls, a talking Dragon or great serpent, and even
supernatural gateways tied to mountain ranges began long before the
Vatican cast its eyes on Mt. Graham.
In an important early scene, Nada, as the Piper character is called, enters an alleyway and finds a box containing black sunglasses. He puts on a pair and soon discovers they include a very special filter.
Looking through them he can see “the reality of the bleak world,” that global media and advertising actually contain totalitarian commands of obedience and conformity in consumerism, to control an unwitting human population by humanoid aliens with grotesque skull-like faces. [i]
Though a commercial failure at the time, the film eventually made its way to the top 25 Cult Classics, where it remains presently, according to Entertainment Weekly Magazine. [ii]
The film and theatrical posters
can often be found today in mocking editorials depicting the goals
of totalitarians and elitists, but another suggestion of the work
that usually goes without discussion is how the world really might
be infested with non-human agents of an unknown reality, about which
the bulk of mankind is unaware.
Extrabiblical texts including ancient pseudepigraphical works like the first Book of Enoch and post-New Testament writings such as the Didache, Ignatius’ Epistle to the Ephesians, and the Shepherd of Hermas agree with this concern.
Early church fathers also reinforced the belief that evil spirits seek to thwart the will of God on earth through attacks on the body of Christ in particular and against society in general, as unseen intermediaries - both good and evil - interlope between spiritual and human personalities at home, in church, in government, and in society.
Understanding how and why this is true is defined in demonological studies such as the divine council (a term used by Hebrew and Semitic scholars to describe the pantheon of divine beings or angels who administer the affairs of heaven and earth), where experts typically agree that, beginning at the Tower of Babel, the world and its inhabitants were disinherited by the sovereign God of Israel and placed under the authority of lesser divine beings that became corrupt and disloyal to God in their administration of those nations (Psalm 82).
Following Babel, these beings quickly became idolized on earth as gods, giving birth to the worship of “demons” (see Acts 7:41–42; Psalms 96:5; and 1 Corinthians 10:20) and the quest by fallen angels to draw mankind away from God.
While the dominion of these entities and their goals are frequently overlooked, close collaboration between evil ones and unregenerate social architects operates on a regular basis outside the purview of the countless multitudes who are blinded to their reality. In other words, as suggested in the film “They Live,” behind governors, legislators, presidents, dictators, and even religious leaders, wicked spiritual powers move throughout the machine of ecclesiastical and civil governments and media as freely as they are allowed.
Whenever such principalities recognize a
religious or political body that has become a force for moral good,
they set about - through a sophisticated labyrinth of visible and
invisible representatives - to bring that organization down, one
righteous soul at a time.
It is here that human ego, separated from God, becomes hostile to the service of mankind while viewing people as commodities to be manipulated in the ministration of fiendish ambition.
Some expositors believe the origins of this phenomenon began in the distant past, when a fire in the mind of Lucifer caused the powerful Cherub to exalt himself above the good of God’s creation.
The once-glorified spirit, driven
mad by an unequivocal thirst to rule, conquer, and dominate, spawned
similar lust between his followers, which continues today among
agents of dark power who guard a privileged, “cause-and-effect”
symmetry between visible and invisible personalities.
With vivid testimony to this, Satan offered Jesus all the power and the glory of the governments of this world.
Satan said,
According to the epistle of the Ephesians, it is this dominion, not flesh and blood, where opposition to God’s will on earth is initiated.
Whereas people and institutions often provide the “faces” on our problems, the conflict originates beyond them, in this place where unseen forces scheme. These forces may indeed be more influential than anyone ever imagined. In fact, there is a strong likelihood that the first murder recorded in Genesis was demonically inspired (in a manner which parallels the so called “alien abduction” phenomenon in interesting ways.)
Did you ever wonder why “sin” is personified when God warns Cain,
Doesn’t it seem odd that “sin” is a “him” and if Cain does not do well he will be sin’s desire? How can “sin” have desire?
Apparently, there is something more going on here
and scholars have uncovered surprising answers.
In this case, a careful examination of the Hebrew text leads many evangelical inerrancy-upholding scholars to see the participle (Heb. rōbēş) rendered “lieth” in the KJV (or “is crouching” in other versions) as an Akkadian loan word, rābişu, for a demon (ancient Hebrew has no vowels so ‘rbs’ offers this flexibility). [iii]
Of course, there are other scholars who balk, preferring a less supernatural exegesis, but the context of the passage supports the demonic interpretation. Sin does not lie in wait but demons do.
Biblical scholar John Walton agrees,
Thus, just prior to the first murder in history, “sin” is depicted
as a doorway-demon waiting for an opportune time, an invitation
which comes all too soon.
The root meaning of this term means ‘one who lies in wait’.[v]
Uncanny parallels to modern abductions are seen in the descriptions of demons who ambush their victims in various locations:
It seems there was a rābişu for just about anywhere, even a rābiş musâti, “the rābişu of the toilet.”
Now that’s disturbing! Ill manners aside, consider the rābiş urĥi, “the rābişu of the road.” [vi]
Might
Barney and
Betty Hill, while driving late at night on that lonely road, have
encountered something like the latter manifest physically in modern
garb?
Would you be surprised to learn that some very intelligent people - including academics and scholars - believe (to borrow a line that Carol Anne so ominously expressed in the 1982 film Poltergeist) “They’re here.”
And is this secret
knowledge why Vatican Astronomer Guy Consolmagno (see entry #2) sent
us the story of
the Nephilim from the Bible as an example of the
kind of “space saviors” man will soon look to for salvation,
suggesting that Jesus himself was the product of alien-human
hybridity?
Unnatural forms of life first sprang up in ancient days and according to the Bible this is a repeatable phenomenon - that is, human hybridization not only happened in earliest times, but was followed by at least a second wave during the days of Abraham, Moses and the Davidic kingdom, and, more importantly, was prophesied to erupt once more in the latter days.
Therefore, we shall show unequivocally that the question is not whether humans were, can be or are being hybridized, but whether alien/demon agencies are involved in the process.
If so, does this imply something very
uncomfortable, which most of us do not want to think about; that a
form of “human” exists that quite possibly cannot be redeemed?
