RENEWED WAR FEARS: Israel Sees Hamas Readiness to Resume Fighting as Gaza Sources Report Weapons Moved Into Hospitals and Schools

Israel is reportedly identifying a growing willingness within Hamas to resume fighting, while voices inside Gaza are pushing for an offensive on the assumption that another confrontation with Israel is inevitable.

The assessment comes alongside accounts from Gaza sources describing preparations on the ground, including the transfer of weapons from underground facilities into hospitals and schools.

Sources also reported that dozens of Hamas operatives have been moving around Nasser Hospital.

Additional accounts published Wednesday described Hamas activity at Shifa, Al-Aqsa Martyrs and Nasser hospitals. According to those accounts, operatives are exploiting crowded conditions and using infrastructure beneath the hospital compounds.

Other testimony described Hamas command-and-control centers in areas still under the terrorist organization’s control, armed men continuing to patrol streets and the operation of Hamas’s internal security apparatus.

The accounts also claimed that Hamas maintains detention and interrogation facilities inside hospital compounds and beneath them. (Read More)

Turkey leads region; Israel passes Iran

The 2026 Global Firepower index ranks Turkey first in the Middle East and ninth worldwide, with Israel second regionally and 15th globally, ahead of Iran, thanks to technological superiority, multi-layered air defence and quality over quantity. 

The Global Firepower index for 2026 presents a clear picture of the military balance in the Middle East. The ranking, based on more than 60 parameters, places Turkey first in the region and ninth worldwide, while Israel ranks second regionally and 15th globally. (Read More)

Senior Researcher Brad Myers Comments,

With Turkey ranking first in the  Middle East according to the 2026 Global Firepower Index, it is hardly surprising that Israel is deeply concerned about the presence of thousands of Turkish troops in Syria.

On September 24, 2026, the Middle East Forum Observer asked a very interesting question: "Why Is Nobody Talking About the Turkish Occupation of Syria?"

Months earlier, on August 21, 2026, Ynet news provided insight into the Turkish presence in Syria, running a news report with an eye-opening headline and subheadline: "Israel defends Syria strike, warns against Turkish military expansion"  "Israel says it struck a Syrian base to prevent a Turkish military buildup near its border, citing Turkey’s presence across roughly 5% of Syria and Erdogan’s calls for Israel’s destruction." 

Does the presence of a Turkish military buildup near the border with Northern Israel and that Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan calls for "Israel's destruction" have anything to do with end-time prophecies found in the Bible? 

Given that Turkey's president has openly called for "Israel's destruction", it isn't difficult to see how Turkey could be one of the nations aligned against Israel in the prophecy of Ezekiel 38:1–6 in the future. 

Do you see the possibility that the Syrian government, headed by former Al-Qaeda commander and current Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, could combine its military forces with the Turkish army and local armed terrorist groups to launch a devastating attack on northern Israel (Isaiah 17:4–7) in the future? 

The prophecies in Isaiah 17:1–14 and Jeremiah 49:23–27 were not completely fulfilled by the Assyrians in 732 BC. To learn more about how these passages point to a end-times war, see Bill Salus's article, "Why the Destruction of Damascus is a Future War Prophecy?" 

Iran Claims Missile Stockpile From Israel War

Iranian military spokesman says Tehran produced new missiles and drones daily during what it calls the 'Ramadan War' and now holds a large weapons stockpile.

Iranian military spokesman Mohammad Akrami Nia stated that Tehran produced new missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles daily during what he referred to as the "Ramadan War", Iran's term for its recent war with Israel, according to open-source intelligence monitors tracking Iranian state media broadcasts.

Akrami Nia confirmed that production of weapons for both defense and attack continues, and that Iran's military forces now possess a large stockpile. He added that the new weapons systems will be presented at an appropriate time. Regional tensions with Israel remain elevated following previous Iranian warnings of harsh retaliation if a third conflict erupts. (Read More)

The Altar Is Ready-Are We Closer To Renewed Temple Sacrifices Than Most Realize?

For generations, Christians watching developments in Israel have assumed that one enormous event must occur before biblical sacrifices can return to Jerusalem: the Third Temple must first be built.

But what if that assumption is wrong?

According to Rabbi Tovia Singer, one of the most widely followed Jewish teachers in the world, an altar suitable for Temple sacrifices has already been prepared. The priestly garments have been made. Silver trumpets have been fashioned. Other vessels necessary for Temple worship have been recreated.

And according to Singer, the altar is ready to be taken to the Temple Mount.

"We have an altar that's ready to go," Singer recently explained. "It's built. It's here. It's ready to go on the Temple Mount."

Then came the statement that should catch the attention of every student of Bible prophecy:

"You technically do not need a Temple in order for an altar to be placed there and sacrifices to be offered."

That changes the conversation considerably.

For years, prophecy watchers have focused primarily on the enormous political obstacles to rebuilding the Jewish Temple. The Temple Mount contains the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque and remains perhaps the most religiously explosive piece of real estate on earth. Any serious attempt to construct a Jewish Temple there could produce repercussions across the Middle East.

But rebuilding the Temple and resuming sacrifices may not necessarily be the same event. The biblical precedent is found in Ezra.

When Jewish exiles returned from Babylon to Jerusalem in the sixth century B.C., they found their city devastated and Solomon's Temple destroyed. Yet they did not wait until a new Temple could be constructed before restoring biblical worship.

They built the altar first. Ezra 3:6 makes the sequence unmistakable:

"From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not yet laid."

The Temple wasn't standing.

Its foundation hadn't even been laid.

Yet sacrifices had already begun.

That ancient precedent suddenly makes today's Temple preparations considerably more interesting. (Read More)

US clears Israel to strike in Iraq

Foreign reports say Washington has lifted operational restrictions on IAF activity over Iraq following the completion of American withdrawal, opening the door to strikes on Iranian-backed militias and the weapons corridor to Syria.

Days after the United States completed its troop withdrawal from Iraq, foreign reports indicate that Washington has granted Israel expanded freedom of operation in Iraqi airspace. According to Western sources quoted by the Emirati news site Erem News, the US has removed operational restrictions previously imposed on the Israeli Air Force.

The report, published Sunday, suggests the move may pave the way for direct strikes against Iranian-backed militias operating on Iraqi soil. Until the full withdrawal, Washington limited extensive Israeli activity in Iraq out of concern that Shiite militias would retaliate against American forces stationed in the country.

According to the Western sources, Israel briefed the American administration on its plans and those of the Mossad to prevent the militias from consolidating their position. The Israeli Air Force will now be able to operate more directly and extensively against militia targets, drone and missile warehouses, and Iranian logistical infrastructure in Iraq.

A central objective of the potential activity is disrupting the Iranian "corridor" running through Iraq toward Syria and Lebanon, which serves to transfer advanced weapons, funds and logistical support. At the same time, the US has committed to strengthening its air defence systems in the Middle East and establishing a regional defence network, fearing retaliatory action by Iran and its proxies.

Iran must cut enrichment to end war, US uncertain who makes decisions in Tehran, Vance says

 
Speaking on Monday after a campaign trip in Alaska, Vance said any agreement would require Iran to reduce its nuclear enrichment capacity, rather than offer assurances of future nuclear drawdowns.

US Vice President JD Vance said in an exclusive interview with Reuters that Iran must make a “meaningful” reduction in its nuclear enrichment capacity to satisfy US demands and end the country’s seven-month war, even as Washington was unsure how Tehran makes decisions in negotiations.

Vance, a longtime skeptic of US involvement in foreign wars, has taken a leading role in negotiating a settlement to the conflict and brokered a provisional peace agreement in June that quickly fell apart. The war has jolted global energy markets and become a political liability for US President Donald Trump and fellow Republicans ahead of November midterm elections.

Speaking on Monday after a campaign trip in Alaska, Vance said any agreement would require Iran to reduce its nuclear enrichment capacity, rather than offer assurances of future nuclear drawdowns. (Read More)

Netanyahu: Hamas will try to influence election with terror attacks, Israel is prepared

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Hamas may try to influence Israel’s October 27 election with attacks, saying Israel would thwart such efforts and respond with “tremendous force.”

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Hamas on Tuesday against attempting attacks ahead of Israel’s October 27 Knesset election, saying Israel would thwart such efforts and respond with “tremendous force” if the terrorist organization tried to influence the vote.“

Precisely because Hamas is so weak, it will try to challenge us with the remnants of its forces ahead of the elections in an attempt to influence them,” Netanyahu said at the opening of the cabinet meeting.“We are prepared for this. First and foremost, we will thwart such attempts, and in any event, we will respond with tremendous force if they make that mistake,” he added. (Read More)

Escalation ahead? US to bolster troops, military assets in Israel

The U.S. military is planning to increase its troop presence and assets in Israel in the coming weeks as tensions across the Middle East continue to rise amid the ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, escalating rhetoric from Tehran and Washington, and Saudi Arabia’s fight against the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen.

There are currently some 3,000 U.S. military personnel in Israel, including forces tasked with operating advanced air defense systems, according to a report by the Hebrew-language outlet Walla.

The report said additional U.S. troops and aircraft are expected to arrive in Israel in the near future “as part of preparations for an escalation in the Middle East.” (Read More)

UK Plans Passport And Facial Age Checks For Social Media

 
Britain is building a surveillance tollbooth for the web.

Ministers in the UK are preparing the ground for new rules that would keep under-16s off major social media platforms, with the strongest surveillance age checks yet, such as passports, driving licenses, credit checks, or facial age estimation. 

This latest attempt at a ban on children using social media comes after evidence that a similar one in Australia has been widely circumvented. 

The new rules will still apply to platforms that use infinite scrolling, autoplay, push notifications and unsolicited contact, and are expected to take effect in the spring of 2027.

Among those that will be targeted include Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, Facebook, and X. 

Everyone opening a new account will have to go through either facial recognition or upload their ID.

The government’s fact sheet about the plan is heavy on platitudes, such as the need to protect children from online harm, but also tries to address the question of how exactly the new rules will affect adults.

Proving you are over 18 “could be as simple as a facial recognition check,” the document says. (Read More) 

__________________________.

Senior Researcher Brad Myers Comments,

Notice that the UK is building a surveillance system on the web, through which anyone opening a new account will have to use either facial recognition or upload their ID.

Look at what is happening in the US. On March 8, 2026, CNBC published an article titled, "Online age-verification tools spread across U.S. for child safety, but adults are being surveilled."

The article notes:"'New U.S. laws designed for online child safety are pulling millions of adult Americans into mandatory age-verification gates that often use AI technology..."

On March 2, 2026, The Guardian warned in an article titled "The world wants to ban children from social media, but there will be grave consequences for us all": "Age-verification systems require collecting sensitive data to support the biometric information. In no time, the internet will become a fully surveilled digital panopticon."

Based on current global trends, is it plausible that the totalitarian world government of the Antichrist and the False Prophet (Daniel7:23, Revelation 13:7) during the seven-year Tribulation could turn the internet into a fully surveilled digital prison?  

 

Smotrich urges permanent Israeli sovereignty in Gaza, Lebanon

 

 

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called on Tuesday for permanent Israeli sovereignty over territory held in Gaza and Lebanon, presenting territorial losses as a necessary penalty for enemies that initiate wars.

“A side that started a war and lost it will lose territory to the victorious side,” Smotrich, leader of the Religious Zionism Party, told the first National Conservatism Conference (NatCon) held in Jerusalem.

In his address, which came three weeks before Israel’s Oct. 27 general election, Smotrich outlined a postwar agenda combining territorial sovereignty, voluntary emigration from Gaza and greater Israeli independence from Washington.

“I demand that the State of Israel permanently apply its sovereignty over the territories it currently holds, both in Gaza and in Lebanon,” he said.

Smotrich argued that Israel’s enemies have been able to regroup, rebuild and attack again after previous rounds of fighting because they ended along the same territorial lines as they began. Territorial losses would impose a lasting price for aggression and deter future wars, he said.

The three-day NatCon gathering, running Oct. 6-8 at Jerusalem’s International Convention Center, brings together conservative politicians, scholars and commentators. Organized by the Edmund Burke Foundation, chaired by Israeli philosopher Yoram Hazony, the conference series has previously convened in Washington, London, Rome, Brussels, Orlando and Miami.

ISRAEL IS SEIZING JUDEA AND SAMARIA

Israeli forces raid occupied West Bank as settler attacks target olive harvest.

Israeli forces have demolished a multi-story residential building in East Jerusalem neighborhood of Al-Tur, saying it was built without a permit. But across the West Bank, Palestinians are facing a wider escalation of Israeli military raids, settler attacks and pressure on their land.

Near Ramallah, settlers have been attacking and intimidating Palestinians, while a road used by local residents is facing possible confiscation to facilitate movement between Israeli settlements. The escalation has also intensified during the olive harvest, with Palestinian farmers in areas near Nablus facing attacks by Israeli settlers as they try to reach their land. 

In Aqrabah village, some Palestinians were reportedly shot with live ammunition while settlers assaulted farmers picking olives. Israeli forces have also raided several areas of the West Bank, detaining at least seven Palestinians and closing entrances to the town of Bani Na'im near Hebron. The developments are taking place ahead of Israeli elections, with settler activity, land seizures and pressure on Palestinians becoming increasingly prominent.

NEW DETAILS: Trump confirms 'threat' led US to remove bombers from UK base

Satellite photos show ‘significant’ renewed activity at Iranian nuclear site bombed by IDF — report

 

Minzadehei, an underground facility near Tehran, hosted much of nuclear program after 2025 war, IDF says; Qatar says US-Iran peace talks ‘ongoing’ despite apparent deadlock

New satellite images show “significant renewed activity” at the underground Minzadehei nuclear facility near Tehran, which the IDF bombed during the war with Iran this year, according to a report published Tuesday by the Institute for Science and International Security.

“Recent satellite imagery indicates a return to regular vehicle activity around the site post extensive cleanup operation that included the clearing of rubble and debris and repair of damage on the hillside,” the Washington-based think tank said.

“Significant vehicle presence can be seen throughout the site between early September and early October 2026,” the think tank added. “Cars are parked outside the security perimeter in the parking lot, and many passenger vehicles and trucks can be seen inside the perimeter. (Read More)

Iran’s protests expose the widening chasm between the regime and its people - opinion

Iran’s protests reveal a deepening divide between the Iranian people and a regime facing growing demands for political change.

Exactly on the seventh of Dey 1404 (December 28 2025), a new wave of nationwide strikes and protests began against the regime of the Islamic caliphate of Velayat-e Faqih, or the religious dictatorship of the Shi’ite mullahs in Iran. People trapped in poverty, inflation, and religious despotism rose up across Iran against the republic of evil and wickedness.

Following the call of the crown prince, Reza Pahlavi, in more than 300 cities and villages across the country’s 31 provinces, millions of people poured into the streets. The credibility, influence, and acceptance of the prince showed that he is the only alternative leader accepted by the Iranian nation.

...If there is a serious and genuine will, the groundwork for regime change should be prepared with the help of Israel. And dialogue should take place with the sole alternative of the Iranian nation, Pahlavi. (Read More)

 _____________________

Senior Researcher Brad Myers Comments,

Do you find it intriguing that if a regime change in Iran was indeed foretold in Jeremiah 49:35–38. The Jerusalem Post is reporting that "the groundwork for regime change should be prepared with the help of Israel." 

Could this help explain why, in Ezekiel 38, the people of Israel seem unconcerned about an Iranian regime attacking them with long-range ballistic missiles?

 Look what it says in Ezekiel 38:14-15:

"Therefore, son of man, prophesy against Gog. Give him this message from the Sovereign LORD: When my PEOPLE ARE LIVING IN PEACE in their land, then you will rouse yourself. You will come from your homeland in the distant north with your vast cavalry and your mighty army, and you will attack my people Israel, covering their land like a cloud."(NLT, emphasis added) 

How can the people of Israel live in peace and security if an Iranian regime still possesses both the will and the capability to attack them with long-range ballistic missiles?

Is it conceivable that during the period of peace described in Ezekiel 38, Iran could be under a  pro-Western government? Furthermore, could a coalition of jihadists operating from within Iran join the armies in Ezekiel 38:1–6 to launch a surprise attack on Israel?

National Security Council warns Iran could attack Israel, Jews on Oct. 7 anniversary

 
Israelis abroad urged not to speak Hebrew in crowded places or approach demonstrations; heads of IDF, Shin Bet and police discuss plans to keep Oct. 27 election ‘orderly and safe’

The National Security Council warned of a heightened risk of terror attacks against Israelis and Jews on Wednesday, the third anniversary of the October 7 onslaught, as security chiefs huddled to discuss threats in the lead-up to Israel’s October 27 Knesset election.

The 2023 onslaught saw thousands of Hamas-led terrorists storm southern Israel to kill some 1,200 people and take 251 hostages, sparking a destructive war in Gaza.

Large anti-Israel demonstrations have taken place in major cities worldwide to mark the onslaught’s first two anniversaries, and are also planned for this week to mark the third anniversary. (Read More)

Settler attacks reported across West Bank as Palestinians begin olive harvest

 
50-year-old man hospitalized after beating; footage shows vehicle being smashed in Osarin, while attacks and vandalism are reported in several other villages

Palestinians harvesting olives were attacked and property was damaged in several locations across the West Bank on Saturday, according to Palestinian reports.

In the village of Osarin, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said it evacuated a 50-year-old Palestinian man to a hospital after he was beaten by settlers. He was carried back into the village on a ladder he had reportedly been using to harvest olives.

Israel braces for possible Hamas, Hezbollah attacks as election nears

Israeli security officials warn that Iranian proxy groups like Hamas and Hezbollah may be planning major attacks on Israel before or during this month’s election.

Israeli security officials are preparing for the possibility that Hamas, Hezbollah or other enemies could attempt a major terrorist attack — potentially including a kidnapping — as Israelis prepare to vote later this month, Israel Hayom reported Monday, amid heightened concern that simultaneous incidents could ignite several fronts at once.

The security situation was described to government ministers as tense across all active theaters, with officials warning that Hamas continues to maintain capabilities for offensive operations and is examining possible attacks despite the severe losses it suffered during the Gaza war.

“We are wary of the possibility of an attack or kidnapping during the elections,” security officials said. (Read More)

Syria condemns Israel's 'violations' of its sovereignty

 
Syria accused Israel of violating its territorial integrity by seizing the peak of Mount Hermon and using the strategic point to launch "incursions" on Syrian villages near the buffer zone.

Syria on Sunday condemned Israel’s continued “violations” of Syrian territory, Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA), Syria’s official news agency, reported.

...Syrian media outlets frequently accuse Israel of carrying out raids inside Syrian villages and shelling them near the buffer zone. There have been more than 1,300 Israeli “incursions,” including 280 in September, Syrian news site Levant24 recently reported.

Israeli officials over the past year have accused the Syrian government of being “jihadists” and predicted that Israel and Turkey will clash over Syria. (Read More)

Senior Researcher Brad Myers Comments,

It is very interesting that Israeli officials, over the past year, have accused the Syrian government of being "jihadists."

In the future, will there be a devastating war between Syria and Israel that results in the city of Damascus becoming a fallen ruin, as foretold in Isaiah 17:1?

There are a number of well-respected Bible prophecy teachers who strongly believe that Isaiah 17:1 was completely fulfilled when the Assyrian king Tiglath-Pileser III attacked and captured the city of Damascus in 732 BC. Are they really correct in their interpretation of what the biblical text actually says in Isaiah 17:1?"

The following selected quotes are taken from Dr. Bill Salus's book, The Future War Prophecies, pages 209 and 215–217:

"Isaiah 17:1 predicts that Damascus will be utterly destroyed as a city someday. The literal interpretation of the verse reads that the city will be reduced to a ruinous heap of rubble. Damascus is thought to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in history, dating back over four thousand years ago to the time of the Hebrew patriarch Abraham. It is the capital city of Syria.

The oracle concerning Damascus. “Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city And will become a fallen ruin.” (Isaiah 17:1, NASB 1995)

...Here are two separate historical accounts that seem to be very strong evidence that the city of Damascus WAS NOT removed from being a city and became a heap of ruins when the Assyrians attacked in 732 B.C.

Tyndale Bible Dictionary, page 346:

"The Assyrian king Tiglath-pileser III ("Pul") agreed and marched against the Syro- Israelite confederation. After defeating Israel, he attacked Damascus, plundered the city, deported the population, and replaced them with foreigners from other captured lands. Damascus was no longer an independent city-state. Due to its key location, Damascus remained important, and the Assyrians used the city as a provincial capital."

The biblical text in Isaiah 17:1 is clearly saying Damascus is about to be removed from being a city and will become a fallen ruin.This seems to suggest strongly that the city of Damascus is removed from being a city because of the utter devastation that results in the city becoming a fallen ruin.

Since this is the case it does not seem to make sense that the Assyrians deported the population and replaced them with foreigners in a city that has been reduced to ruins. In addition, how can the Assyrians use the city of Damascus as a provincial capital when it is a fallen ruin? Most importantly, there is no historical evidence that the Assyrians in 732 B.C. had to totally rebuild the city of Damascus after it had become a fallen ruin before moving in people to live there again.

In this second historical account, George Smith who worked in the Assyriology Department of the British Museum and a world-renowned expert on the history of the Assyrians authored a book in 1876 entitled, “Ancient History from the Monuments: Assyria from the Earliest Times to the Fall of Nineveh” explains on pages 87-88 what took place historically to the city of Damascus.

"Tiglath-Pileser now led his army to Damascus, after crucifying the captains of the Syrian army who had fallen into his hand and closely invested the Syrian capital. Tiglath- Pileser tells us that he shut up Rezon in Damascus like a caged bird, and cut down all the fine forests around the city for use in the siege, not leaving a single tree near the capital. Several places round were spoiled,  and sixteen districts of Damascus were destroyed like a flood …591 cities were captured and spoiled, and the whole of the kingdom of Rezon subdued  Damascus, however held out, and could only be reduced by famine, so leaving part of his army before the city, Tiglath-Pileser marched against the other rebels."

Notice that the famous historian on the history of the Assyrians said,";sixteen districts of Damascus were destroyed like a flood ... DAMASCUS HOWEVER HELD OUT, and could ONLY BE REDUCED BY FAMINE." He is obviously saying that the sixteen districts of Damascus that were destroyed like a flood are not what took place to the actual capital city of Damascus and this would also mean that the city of Damascus was not destroyed like the ruins from the flood either."

Hunt for humans’ ancient ancestor begins... on Mars

 Scientists say potential discovery of ancient life on Red Planet would ‘change everything.’

Life on Earth and Mars could share a common ancestor, scientists have suggested, as a new rover prepares to scour the Red Planet for signs of ancient life. 

The ExoMars “Rosalind Franklin” rover, which was built in Stevenage by Airbus for the European Space Agency (Esa), will be the first to drill two metres below the surface of Mars, looking for evidence that life once thrived there. 

It is set to launch in 2028, and land in 2030, but for the past few weeks the rover team has been carrying out navigation testing in the Tabernas desert near Almería in Spain, which mimics the Martian surface.

Finding life on Mars would “change everything”, scientists said, and if organisms were similar to those on Earth it could show that the two planets were seeded by a common source – a process known as panspermia. Martian life could even have spawned our own.

Susanne Schwenzer, professor of planetary mineralogy at the Open University, an interdisciplinary scientist on the mission, said: “Currently, humankind thinks we are the only life in the universe. We think the Earth is the only lifeboat.

“But if we were to look at Mars and found traces of past life, that would be extraordinary. “If life emerges the moment it can, maybe it emerged there and then came here. If life is the same there, it may be that we are all from the same ancestor...She added: “Finding life would be an amazingly big deal. It’s almost frightening to think about it, because it changes everything.” (Read More)

Senior Researcher Brad Myers Comments,

The scientists said that finding life on Mars would "change everything" and suggested that life on Earth could have been seeded through a process known as panspermia. Furthermore, these scientists claimed that "Martian life could have spawned our own."

What do you think the vast majority of scientists around the world would believe if microbial life is discovered on Mars? Will they believe Earth was seeded by an advanced alien civilization, or will they believe that God created all life on Earth according to Genesis 1:1–31?

As Bible-believing Christians in these last days, do we see where this is obviously leading?

You might find it interesting that back in 2020, Dr. Bill Salus anticipated what we are seeing in the news today with his book The Final Prophecies. Here is what he wrote on pages 36–37:

 "L. A. Marzulli and I both think it’s possible that “The Lie,” which Satan propagates through strong delusion in 2 Thessalonians 2:11, could be fueled by the realization of man, that he is not alone in the universe. The appearance of extraterrestrials would provide verifiable and undeniable proof that other intelligent life exists elsewhere in the cosmos. This understanding would likely prompt humanity to reject the biblical narrative of creation, especially if these alien beings go a step further and take credit for being our creators.

Some prophecy teachers suspect that the fallen angels, disguised as ET’s, will advocate that Panspermia is the reality behind human creation. Panspermia is a Greek word that translates literally as “seeds everywhere.” The Panspermia hypothesis states that the “seeds” of life exist all over the Universe and can be propagated through space from one location to another. Some believe that life on Earth may have originated through these “seeds.”

Thus, if fallen angels appear garbed in alien wardrobes and boast that they seeded man into existence, this would rebut the biblical book of Genesis account that God created man and his earthly environment in six days."
