As with demons, angels are foreign beings to earth, so there is room for the term “#alien” to be used to describe them. And there are many more biblical references of angels appearing like humans and interacting with #humans on #earth. But they do not seem to stay on earth for long periods of time.

Angels certainly could also be mistaken for extraterrestrial beings, and could even be mistaken for being human, as the writer of Hebrews states:

“Do not forget to show #hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” (Hebrews 13|2)

Angels often interacted with humans throughout the Old and New Testaments. Here are some examples:

Genesis 18: Abraham encounters three strangers that he does not realize are angels.
Numbers 22: Balaam and his donkey encounter an angel in the road.
Joshua 5: Joshua encounters the “commander of the army of the Lord.”
2 Kings 6: Elisha and the #armyofangels
In Matthew and Luke’s gospel accounts, Zachariah, Mary, and Joseph all have encounters with angels.
Luke 2: a “host” of #angels engage with a group of #shepherds
All angels are #ministering #servants sent to serve those who will inherit #salvation, according to Hebrews 1|14. They are distinctly separate (and in service and submission to) Jesus. They ensure that God’s will ultimately is accomplished.

In the Bible, angels have many purposes when they engage with humans. Here are some examples:

Psalm 91|11: They will “#guard” God’s people in all ways.
Psalm 34|7: They “#encamp” around those who fear God and “#deliver” them.
Luke 15|10: They “#rejoice” when sinners repent
Exodus 23|20: They prepared the way for Israel to enter the promised land.
Matthew 4|11: After Satan was done tempting Jesus, he was attended to by angels.
Could someone have had an #angelicexperience and determined that it was an alien? Well, absolutely. Hebrews 13 even indicates that angels have engaged humanity without humanity even knowing. #payitforward2023 #gorgeousness #makeupartist #wellness #lovinghearts #whatgodgaveyou #lookhappy #behappy #loveyoumom #loveislove #lovewins anything that’s not GOD #SystematicTheology “The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.” I’m just here to spread joy and love I promise 🫶🤙🫵

Are aliens demons?
Given that the definition of “alien” refers to any foreign being, there is room for the term being used to describe a demonic being, but in Scripture, demonic beings are #spiritualbeings. They are part of the #spiritualrealm, not another planet.

The spiritual realm does interact with the world throughout the Scriptures.

For example, Ephesians 6|12 talks about an enemy that is not #flesh and #blood, but that includes: “#rulers, #authorities, #powers, and #forcesofevil in the #heavenly #realms.”

2 Corinthians 10|4-5 talks about #fighting a #spiritual #enemy with “#weaponsnotofthisworld.”

In Matthew, chapter 4, the “#tempter” meets Jesus in the wilderness.

So whether they are considered “#aliens” or not, demons are spiritual beings that sided with Satan as an enemy of God and “lost their place in heaven.”

Scripture says they were “hurled to the earth” (Revelation 12|7-9) where they engage with humanity in an attempt to keep people from salvation.

In most Biblical references to demons, people are “#possessed” or “#filledwith” a #demonicspirit.

So could someone have had a demonic experience and determined that it was an #alien?

Well, sure! 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 🫶🤙✌️🏁🫵🔥
