Should We as Christians Be Taking These Things More Seriously?
Matt S – Guest Writer AMTM – February 26th – 2025.
Introduction.
I was going to be writing another article on cryptids and following that a more in-depth look at the UFO phenomenon, and I will do that, but something came up over the weekend just prior to President Trump’s inauguration. This “something” was in some ways quite mind blowing; however, it did not really make a splash of any significance, and it should have!!
Something, Crickets And Tumbleweeds………..
That “something” was the Ross Coulthard News Nation 40min Interview with Jake Barber, (full three hour interview) I have followed Ross and his News Nation coverage of the UFO/UAP revelations for several years now. Ross interviewed David Grusch around 18 months ago re the US Defence Department UAP retrieval program. Although David did not have personal eyewitness experience of the UAP retrieval program, he was tasked with interviewing defence personnel involved in this program, and investigating claims of defence personnel accounts and reports of UFO/UAP interactions. David is referred to as a “whistleblower “, however I do have questions in my mind about how managed this whistleblowing is, and perhaps would refer to it as what I will call more of a “managed disclosure” (more on that another time).
Back to the “something”, Jake Barber and the revelations of the UFO/UAP retrieval program………..
With all the noise, pomp and fanfare of President Trump’s inauguration, this story has largely been lost, if you do a search on this interview and related material, you will find that it is mostly the UFO community that is reporting on, analysing, debunking and doing the usual bit of hand wringing on Jake Barber, his revelations of UAP retrieval and the video footage of “the egg”.
Just listen for the sound of crickets chirping………………….. and picture tumbleweed’s rolling across a barren desert landscape………………..
At one time, even our MSM (main stream media) would have picked up on this. It may have had a small segment in the corner of a news bulletin, but now, nothing!!
I believe that we are very much living in the end of the latter days, the time period described as the “birth pangs”. Jesus tells us very clearly, (four times clearly) in Matthew 24, that we are living in the “age of deception”, and that we are NOT to be Misled!!
I will say this again, “WE ARE LIVING IN THE AGE OF DECEPTION”. As a Christian I keep this firmly front and centre when viewing anything from the world, this world is temporarily ruled by Satan, and we are rapidly approaching a time in history that has no parallel. Satan is a most clever deceiver and he is going all out to bring in the Antichrist, that is, the one who is in place of Christ.
So, what has this to do with Jake Barber and the UFO/UAP retrieval program?
I would encourage you to watch the Jake Barber’s interview (40min) with Ross Coulthard of News Nation, (the full interview is 3hrs long but worth watching), it is an interview with video footage of the UFO egg included. Whilst it may be argued in this day and age of Artificial Intelligence and Computer Generated Images, this could all be cleverly faked, however, we all need to start joining the dots on what is happening here. I would also encourage you to watch Ross Coulthard of News Nation interview David Grusch (link previously included), this will give you good insight into understanding the Jake Barber interview, and how this all ties together.
The Trump Administration.
The Trump administration promised to look at the “Drone/UAP events” of the last few months. However, the Whitehouse statement from the new administration was bland, sadly predictable and very short. (Whitehouse Statement re Drones) If you are expecting any dramatic changes from Trump on these issues, you may be waiting a while, unless there is an incident or event that will force Trump’s hand.
The Encounter – Jake’s Story.
Back to Jake Barber’s interview with News Nation. What stood out most for me was not the video of the strange egg shaped craft, it was Jakes reaction to his alleged encounter with an NHI (non-human intelligence). Jake was on a routine pick-up of an “8gon” (as he calls them); a disc portioned into eight parts. He was flying his helicopter toward the retrieval site when he started experiencing strong emotional feelings. Jake stated that he had never previously experienced such strong emotions in his life. (I paraphrase this event) He called it an intense hybrid of love, happiness, sadness, joy, song and beauty. The feelings were so intense that it was disrupting his ability to fly the helicopter, it was nighttime, so Jake was conflicted about being able to continue the mission.
As they came to the retrieval area, Jake felt overwhelmed with emotion, he felt as though something had connected with him. He described a “something” providing him guidance, and encouraging him with thoughts that “the work he was doing was profound and very important work”. He was so overwhelmed with emotion; he began to cry and had no comprehension of why he was crying. Jake managed to focus himself enough to complete the pickup of the object and resume his return to the drop-off location. On the return journey, Jake goes on to describe that “he felt that something was inside of him”, (in his own words) “something had possessed him”. He described feeling that this entity had possessed him, he described a beautiful spirit that emanated a sense of profound love tinged with sadness, something he had never experienced before.
The craft and its occupant had been contacted earlier by another ground based human psionic team and that team had invited the craft to land!! Jake and his crew then became the retrieval team for the downed 8gon craft. On his way to the retrieval area, Jake says this spirit or entity in the craft connected with him psionically.
Jake called this spirit entity God!! He referred to it as a feminine spirit, not at all masculine, he said it was a frequency, something that stayed with him and is with him now. He says it is what is protecting him now!! It has changed his life!! Jake then goes to give a description of people with the ability to communicate with their minds, or “Psionics”, he says that they have been crucial for developing the ability to make contact with NHI’s, demonstrating both telepathic and telekinetic abilities. The Psionics contact the UFO/UAP and the intelligence operating it and are able take control and operate the craft.
Jake described the psionics as having psychic abilities, they were able to contact these craft and those piloting them and invite them to land in particular places. This was confirmed by one of Jake’s team members Don Paul Bales, who relayed that he was aware of people who naturally had psionic abilities, people that were selected and trained to improve this ability. Ross Coulthard the interviewer reported the fact that the Pentagon/CIA has been interested in people with psionic abilities. There have been programs that have dealt with “Remote Viewing”, an ability to use the mind to take oneself psychically to a particular location or make contact telepathically with other minds!!
From a Christian perspective there are a number of things that raise concerns for me, and I have many questions. However, before I get into that I would like to say that it is my opinion that the majority of people involved in whistle blowing on the US Department of Defence and various as yet unnamed government contractors, are genuine and good people who believe in what they are doing. If I were to choose a journalist with integrity, Ross Coulthard would be the man! Yes, he likes a good story that improves the ratings, but he treats his interviewees and their information with respect.
Where Are All The Christians?
As far as I can tell, none of these people are Christians! Ross Coulthard has mentioned that there are some individuals within the Pentagon who call UFOs and Aliens demonic, Ross has not named or interviewed these individuals that I am aware of. I get the impression that many in the UFO investigation and experiencer community, treat with some derision, anyone who calls this phenomenon demonic. However, it is my experience that there seems to be a general unwillingness from the UFO community, to engage Bible believing Christians on the subject of UFOs and Aliens, and I do find that interesting! Check out CE4 researcher Joe Jordan’s website for his story.
Currently, there are few Christians very actively speaking out on the latest revelations regarding UFOs and Aliens, however their voices are being ignored. Three I know of are LA Marzulli, Gary Bates of Creation Ministries and Joe Jordan of CE4 Research. In fairness, there may be others that I’m not aware of, or would trust to handle this in a genuine and credible Biblical manner, there is plenty of money to be made with membership fees and merchandise. What is interesting are the number of people who identify as some type of Christian, or hold to some form of Christian belief, who are actively engaging in a secular perspective on UFO and Alien research. I hope to write on this in the near future as I have some grave concerns about what is happening here.
Distractions Distractions Distractions!!
At the moment with President Trump hogging the international limelight with his rapid-fire restoration of the US economy and government, this seems to be overshadowing what’s happening in the background. We are being distracted away from some very significant issues. The Main Stream Media by in large (MSM) won’t touch UFOs and Aliens. As an aside, please tell me, where are the pastors speaking out on this from the pulpit? If you do have a pastor that speaks on these issues, you are in the smallest minority and are very fortunate. Sadly, the vast majority of pastors and Christians don’t have a clue about this, they still relegate UFOs and Aliens to the domain of conspiracy theory and fringe lunacy. They are drinking the carefully manufactured “cool-aid” dished out by the MSM and global governments and authorities. The idea that is publicly presented, is that this is all silliness, conspiracy theory, the realm of disaffected mentally unstable people, and it will continue to be this, until it is not!!
Christians as much as any in the secular world are preoccupied with financial struggle and distraction. Tik Tok, Reality TV, YouTube and MSM opinion have cornered Christians in a world of busyness and preoccupation. This is by design!!When we don’t have time for God and His Word, we lose our perspective, we fail to look at the world through the lens of scripture. This is by design!!
A Serious Summing Up.
Jesus has given us a massive heads-up on what to expect at this time of the “Birth Pangs” described in Matthew 24, and He warns four times on deception! We need to be on the alert now more than ever, it is very possible that “we can be deceived”, but, we can do things to counter this deception. There are two very important things that you can do!
- Stay firmly rooted in your relationship with Jesus, pray for Holy Spirit discernment to keep you on the narrow path.
- Read your Bible, read God’s Word and ask Him for teaching and revelation from the Holy Spirit. This will strengthen you, give you knowledge and understanding of the times we live in and will protect you from deception. You will get a feel for the truth, God’s Word to us, that will lead you through these times.
I don’t say these things lightly; look critically at any information that is presented to you from government or supposedly credible organisations, including Church leaders and the Christian community (that includes me). Are people stating information as speculation and opinion or fact, if being reported from a Christian perspective, does the information line up with scripture, does it line up with Biblical prophecy, is it accurate and true, what is the spirit that sits behind this? Yes, test the spirits, stay focused on Jesus and His word, because in these days, these guidelines are of the utmost importance.
My Concerns.
My concerns with what Jake and his team are doing are that they are engaging in necromancy. You may argue that they are just trying to contact Aliens or NHI’s. However, they are using psychic abilities in the same way a necromancer or spirit medium would make contact with the spirit world. Do they know what they are making contact with? Satan uses deception, he deceives our reality, he deceives our hearts and emotions, he is an expert at what he does. If you are not aware of him or understand how he operates, he will take you down and have you believing all his lies.
Jake Barber was given a very powerful emotional experience, this is significant for men as we generally tend to keep our emotions in check, anything as powerful as this tends to grab our attention. Jake was given the impression that there was a loving feminine being who now stays within him to take care of him, once again I say that this tends to resonate deeply with men. I would also ask the question, has Jake opened himself to be possessed by this spirit?. What does scripture say regarding these things? God tells us that our hearts are desperately sick and deceitful Jeremiah 17:5-10, Satan and his workers will come as an angel of light 2 Corinthians 11:14-15, God forbids us to partake in necromancy Leviticus 19:31 NASB, ESV. Had Jake understood these God given rules and information, he may well not be where he finds himself now. Interestingly, one of Jake’s team members Fred Baker, (who was interviewed by Ross Coulthard of News Nation) admitted that he was warned by a friend that the work that Jake and his team were engaging in, was being influenced by demonic entities.
There is a carefully managed disclosure of the UFO/UAP phenomenon being carried out right now, this is a carefully orchestrated Satanic plan being played out. We are headed into a time of massive deception!! I have deep concerns after listening to what many of the UFO whistle-blowers are saying. These are good people, but they are deeply deceived, there are many nominal Christians who are being caught up in this deception, they clearly do not know or understand what the Bible says of these deceptions, or they would not be so taken in. In a way I have left you hanging, as there is so much more that needs to be said about this deception. It is my intention to write detailed articles, and there is more to come that will flesh out much of this picture for you, and it can’t be done in this article. So, I will leave you with this!
You don’t need to be part of the UFO and Alien Investigation and Contact community, you don’t need to partake in their activities, but you do need to be aware of what is happening in this community, there is a difference.
Until next time, may the love, blessings and discernment of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
Matt.
