The Event

A couple of months ago, I wrote an article about the strong delusion Paul mentions in 2 Thessalonians 2:11, a delusion God will send upon the world during the Tribulation. In that article, I argue that this strong delusion that God will send upon a world that has rejected the truth of the gospel is nothing less than the idea that the Antichrist is their "savior," and that he should be worshiped as God. A Christ-rejecting world will fall for it hook, line, and sinker, and as a result be damned to an eternity of separation from God.

I also discussed how the UFO/alien narrative will play a key role in this strong delusion, as the Antichrist will present himself and be perceived as not necessarily an extraterrestrial per se, but at least as a man who has the support and backing of a benevolent extraterrestrial race, and who has been empowered by them to perform supernatural wonders to establish himself as the one chosen to lead the world into a wonderful New Age of enlightenment.

One important aspect of this strong delusion and the stages of delusion that will lead up to it that I didn't say too much about in my earlier article was the way in which this deception will incorporate and interact with the startlingly real future event that will trigger the whole shebang—something many in the New Age community have come to refer to simply as "the Event."

Although the Event will be hailed as the beginning of a major phase of man's "ascension process," in reality it will mark the beginning of the final phase of Satan's futile campaign to (a) wipe out the Jews, and as a result (b) put the Second Coming on ice, thus cementing his position as the god of this world.

It may surprise you to learn that many born-again believers are also quite familiar with this New Age hullabaloo known as the Event—we just have another name for it:

We call it the Rapture.

In this article, I want to discuss the New Age narrative and the Event, which are the result of decades of meticulous preparation by Satan, as well as a few related observations. The New Age narrative will provide a framework that will incorporate the catching away of the Church, and will offer an explanation for it that will seem plausible to a stunned and terrified world that is desperately seeking answers in the wake of arguably the most shocking supernatural event the world has ever witnessed. This narrative will begin to emerge in the aftermath of the Rapture, and it will become the foundation that underpins everything Satan has planned for his (short-lived) rule of the planet.

And according to New Agers, some of whom have spent decades dutifully channeling messages from demons they have been fooled into believing are highly evolved alien beings from galaxies far, far away, the whole lollapalooza is going to be kicked off by the Event.

So, just what is the Event?

Much has been written about the Event by scores of New Agers, much of it supposedly channeled from various extraterrestrial beings from various parts of the galaxy. Of course, not all New Agers are literally receiving messages from demons. Many New Age websites are filled with highly imaginative nonsense made up by wannabes who just wanna be part of something that's trendy and titillating. As a result, details concerning the Event and other related New Age topics vary widely; but in spite of that fact, a significant number of common threads have emerged over the years and have been woven into a substantial narrative that born-again believers would do well to at least be aware of.

The fundamental idea that shines through clearly is that the earth is about to undergo a traumatic period of great changes. Mankind is about to ascend to a higher vibrational level or spiritual level of consciousness, but this process will take time and will involve a number of stages of activity to achieve.

The basic problem, you see, is that Mother Earth (referred to as Gaia by many New Agers) is in critical condition. She must cleanse herself of negative energy and dark forces before she can evolve to that higher level of consciousness. This cleansing, however, will necessitate the removal of a large number of people who are not ready to evolve to this higher level of vibration or spiritual consciousness. They will be evacuated to a fleet of spacecraft that have come to the vicinity of earth especially for this purpose according to most New Age channelers, although details vary.

To let you hear it from the horses' mouths, so to speak, here is what several leading figures in the New Age movement have written. In all the quotes that follow, my comments will be highlighted in yellow.

New Age author Kay Wheeler (aka Ozmana), a self-described Pleiadian star seed and adept channeler, claimed she channeled the following from a group identified as the "Souls of Light" from the "Seventh Celestial Plane of Life" and published it in 1994. This has become a foundational idea within the New Age religion, and I'll step aside and allow the Souls of Light to spell it out for you—I'm sure they can explain it far better than I can, what with me being chock-full of dark, negative energy and everything:

Thelma Terrell (aka Tuella) was a prolific channeler who passed away in 1993. She wrote Project World Evacuation: UFOs to Assist in the "Great Exodus" of Human Souls Off This Planet (Guardian Action International, 1982), and channeled a popular extraterrestrial name Ashtar, who claims to be the leader of an alien confederation known as the Ashtar Command. Terrell claimed to have met Jesus, Peter, and Phillip in visions, and they were kind enough to clear up a few little mysteries for her, like why things such as reincarnation had been left out of the Bible, ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

Here are a few relevant snippets pertaining to the Event hot off the press from the Ashtar Command:

There are countless such channeled messages that say essentially the same thing: The earth must cleanse itself (herself?) or undergo some kind of purification process in order to begin the next phase of what is referred to as the ascension process, and the Event is what suddenly shifts this ascension process into high gear.

Pay particular attention to what the earth is being cleansed of: The general consensus is that the earth must be cleansed of negative energy or dark forces that hold it back in its ascension, or shift to a higher level of consciousness. This apparently includes millions of people who are not ready to evolve spiritually because their thought patterns are of the past; people who desperately cling to intolerant, fear-based religious dogma that renders them incapable of seeing that they are in fact already one with the Creator, and thus are simply unprepared to realize the spiritual oneness we are all part of. Thus, they are simply not ready to participate in the next big shift in consciousness that is about to begin and that the Event will trigger.

In other words, people like me...and, hopefully, you.

New Age channeler Barbara Marciniak echoes many of these ideas in her book Bringers of the Dawn: Teachings from the Pleiadians (Bear & Company, 1992), a book filled with channeled messages from her pals in the Pleiades regarding this coming shift in consciousness (and the removal of those who don't make the cut):

There are tons of New Age sources out there I could quote, but at this point I thought it might be good to simply choose one single source I felt represented current, "mainstream" New Age thinking about the Event. Vidya Frazier is a well-known New Age author who recently published a book entitled Triumph of the Light: Story of Humanity's Enslavement and Impending Liberation (First Edition Design Publishing, 2017), in which she goes on at length about the Event. The following passages come from chapter 16 of her book.

In what follows, David Wilcock is a leading New Age proponent and author of The Source Field Investigations (Dutton, 2011) and The Synchronicity Key (Dutton, 2013), both of which were New York Times bestsellers. I actually attended one of Wilcock's talks in the 1990s during my brief fling with the New Age movement.

Gordon Asher Davidson is the author of The Transfiguration of Our World: How a Light Alliance Is Transforming Darkness and Creating a New Earth (Golden Firebird Press, 2015).

Cobra is the codename for the anonymous messenger of a group of people that was formed in 2012 to inform people about the impending Event, and who, rather than channeling them like everybody else, claim to be in direct physical contact with the Pleiadians.

(By the way, I'm just messing with you about the September 2023 thing. I hope you know by now that I don't take that kind of stuff too seriously.)

After the Event

So there you have it—the narrative is in place. Sometime very soon, the Event will occur and the earth will undergo a sudden, dramatic change to initiate its cleansing. Mankind will begin its ascension process to a higher vibrational level and the higher levels of spiritual consciousness that go with it, while millions whose minds are clouded by dark, negative energy and steeped in intolerant religious dogma (i.e. born-again believers) and who are simply not prepared for this spiritual shift in consciousness will be safely removed to be patiently retrained and guided until they are ready to rejoin mankind at a future time.

In addition, according to leading New Age proponents, the Event will trigger or initiate the move toward several things:

1. A one-world government: The world will be divided into 10 regions, each with its own leader and all under a global government. Ultimately this global government will be headed up by one highly enlightened soul known as the Christ (i.e. the Antichrist), who will have the support and backing of a benevolent alien race who has come to assist the people of earth in their ascension process and to save them from themselves.

2. A one-world economic system: Either in conjunction with or possibly in the run-up to the above, the world will experience a global economic reset, which will result in a global economic system with a global currency. And it may just be talk, but like I mentioned earlier—this grabbed my attention because I have read articles recently by respected financial experts that talk about a global financial reset occurring within a matter of months.

3. A one-world religion: All religious beliefs will be welcomed and united into one universal religion that the whole world will participate in, while any exclusive or intolerant beliefs will be banned (and you'll never guess who that would refer to...ooh, you're a good guesser). This universal religion will maintain that all collectively are God, and after the Event it will be easier for people to raise their spiritual consciousness to the point where they begin to realize that they are already one with the Creator and ascend the path leading to Christ-consciousness.

Quetzalcoatl-consciousness? Why do New Agers always call it "Christ-consciousness"? Ever wonder about that? If Jesus is just a prophet (that apparently plays second fiddle to the mighty Muhammed), then why don't they call it Muhammed-consciousness? Or Buddha-consciousness for Asians? How about Krishna-consciousness? No no no...it's Christ-consciousness. Actually, the question is rhetorical because I know exactly why: Down deep, they all know that Jesus is the real deal, so riding on His coattails is the surest way to give their religious red herrings a semblance of credibility.

Now, I dare say most New Agers have never read the book of Revelation. But if they ever do, you can see why they might have a case of Yogi Berra's "déjà vu all over again." The preceding, which is spelled out in detail in the New Age narrative, could have been laid out point by point from Scripture.

In this one-world religion that will be intended to help mankind ultimately ascend to Christ-consciousness, all negative energy and dark forces and beliefs that engender fear, disunity, and separatism must be eliminated. By "separatism," I mean any belief that suggests that man is in any way "separate" from the Creator. In New Age theology, man is and has always been one with God, but we have somehow "forgotten" this over the millennia and need to reawaken to this reality. As a result, our only "sin" is not realizing we are all collectively God and have never truly been separated from Him in any way. The ascension process is our way of coming to a full realization of our ultimate oneness with God.

Of course, this is antithetical to the gospel and to the crystal-clear teaching of Scripture. The Bible plainly says that rather than being one with God, we are separated from Him because of our sin, and separated we remain unless and until we respond in repentant faith to the grace and mercy He expressed to us through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Meditate on that: Yeah, Christ. Remember Him? I've got a news flash for all the New Agers who imagine they're going to achieve Christ-consciousness. Guess what? He's not a "consciousness," and He's not some type of enlightened "Ascended Master"—He's the Son of God and He died for your sins so you could be reconciled to a holy God you are separated from—utterly and completely so. Get in the lotus position and meditate on that.

At any rate, the initial wave of elimination of people who just aren't able to get with the ascension program will occur at the Event (Rapture), but will continue during Daniel's 70th Week in the form of the systematic slaughter of Tribulation saints and Jews during the Tribulation, who will never acquiesce to New Age theology—a bundle of sweet, smooth-sounding lies that will damn untold millions to an eternity of separation from the very Creator they were deluded into believing they were one with.

Observations

Before I bring this in for a landing, there are a couple of observations concerning the Event and what will ensue that I want to flesh out a bit.

1. Alien disclosure...NOT!

The official disclosure of alien contact has been a hot topic for years (basically since the Roswell incident of 1947), and as I've stated before, it has reached the point where for many people such disclosure is a question of when, not if.

As I worked on this article however, something began to dawn on me, and I have become fully convinced of the following:

Official disclosure of alien contact will only come after the Rapture.

So as believers, there is no point in wasting our time anticipating it—we won't be here for that, and the reason is simple:

Official alien disclosure is the ace in the hole
Satan needs to explain the Rapture his way.

Consider: As soon as the Rapture occurs, the world will be plunged into chaos. People all over the world will be terrified and baffled at the fact that a couple of hundred million people suddenly went flying off into the air, never to be seen again. It will be a global supernatural occurrence, and the billions of shell-shocked people remaining will literally be screaming for answers.

Starting the day of the Rapture, however, there will be a rapidly growing number of people who come to faith in Christ. There are millions of people in the world—especially in America—who know something about the Bible, but are unsaved. They went to church, heard the gospel a thousand times, and maybe even knew about end-time events, but they never let it in. They never let the conviction of the Holy Spirit penetrate their hearts and bring them to the point where they trusted in the precious blood of Jesus to wash them clean from the sin that spiritually separated them from a loving God. It was all an intellectual exercise. An academic argument. A lifestyle. They were good people, but they weren't saved in the biblical sense—the only sense that counts.

They'll know what happened—and they'll know what to do.

Not only that, but at some point after the Rapture, 144,000 Jewish apostle Pauls will aggressively take the gospel throughout the post-Rapture world. No doubt millions will be brought into the kingdom, although a great number of them will ultimately pay for their newfound faith with their lives.

At the same time, the Rapture will be a critical juncture for Satan—in a very real sense, that's his cue. It's show time, and he will know that he has but a short time to establish his rule on earth through his man the Antichrist and wipe out the Jews so he can hold onto his little corner of the universe where he can "be like the Most High."

As we have seen, Satan has already prepared a highly detailed narrative that neatly explains why many millions of people have suddenly been removed from the planet. It reassures everyone that those who have been taken are safe and are being well cared for by a benevolent race of extraterrestrials that have come to assist mankind through the coming changes to earth and through mankind's ascension process.

That's the whole point—aliens are central to the story. They provide the foundation upon which the entire narrative is based, and they are the key to explaining away the Rapture in a manner that slyly and convincingly leads people away from the truth of God's Word. Satan knows his success hinges at least partially on how effectively he can persuade people to buy his version of what transpired and ignore the Bible's version.

To get a sense of this, let's take a trip back in time to the fall of 2012. Imagine that Satan is convinced that the Rapture will occur on December 21, 2012. You know, the Mayan thing and all that. So, believing his cue is right around the corner, he arranges for someone to release full alien disclosure to the public in November of 2012. There are a lot of oohs and aahs, it's trending on Twitter, but then nothing happens. You can just hear people:

"So what's the deal with this big Event thing? We thought you guys said millions of people were going to be removed from the planet by these good-guy aliens that we're in contact with, who have come to help us. So what happened? Where are they? Maybe those people talking about Bible prophecy are right after all—maybe we should check that out."

You see what I mean? Satan played his ace too soon, and his plan fell flat on its face. Then when the Rapture really does occur six or eight years later, what's he gonna do? Disclose alien contact again? He's blown his cover story—it's over and done with...and his big alien narrative that was going to explain the Rapture his way and provide the foundation for the rise of his man the Antichrist got left flapping in the breeze. It was a lead story for awhile, but it's yesterday's news. Nobody took it all that seriously, and the reason is simple:

People won't take it seriously until they
have no choice. But when millions of
people suddenly go flying off into space,
that's when they will have no choice.

Never forget: Satan DOES NOT KNOW when the Rapture will occur, no more than we do. And if he plays his ace too soon and the Rapture doesn't occur for another few years, it kinda deflates the whole thing.

The point is that Satan must wait until the Rapture occurs until he can kick things off with the official disclosure of alien contact—he really has no choice. Only then will a confused, terrified world swallow his lies hook, line, and sinker, because it will all make sense to them—and the world will be desperate for something that will help things make sense again.

In the wake of what the world will have just experienced, Satan's New Age nonsense will no longer sound like sci-fi shtick. A psychologically shattered post-Rapture world will quickly embrace the New Age narrative, which will emerge from the lunatic fringe where it has been quietly percolating for decades and will quickly move into the mainstream. And those psychologically shattered individuals desperately in need of reassurance will jump all over it because it will reassure them that their loved ones are safe and will be safely returned, and that they have been left behind because they are better prepared for the ascension process than those who were removed. All they have to do to make things right again is get on board with the ascension process and join the effort to make the world a better, more spiritually enlightened place.

And it all starts with embracing the New Age narrative and the benevolent, highly spiritually evolved beings of light who have come to patiently and lovingly help us become what the Creator intended us to be.

2. Welcome, Light Bros!

Speaking of benevolent, highly spiritually evolved beings of light who have come to help us, at some point after the Rapture—perhaps not right away, but when enough people are deemed "ready," the world will welcome legions of beings of light who will pass themselves off as members of the highly evolved race of extraterrestrials who have come to help us get through the coming earth changes and guide us in our ascension process.

Of course, these will not be benevolent, highly evolved beings of light—they will be demonic entities masquerading as such, just like their boss:

After the Rapture, the restraining influence of the Holy Spirit will be removed along with us, and Satan and his fallen angels will be unleashed in a way we cannot currently imagine. His program will be in full swing, and he will have plenty of help.

As many people around the world supposedly begin to ascend to higher levels of consciousness with the help of these highly spiritually evolved beings of light, they will believe they have attained the Christ-consciousness, and will seek to help others follow suit. At that point, I believe the world will see the final eschatological fulfillment of one of Christ's prophetic statements concerning the Tribulation period:

Although we have seen this occur on a limited basis with a handful of fruitcakes, I don't think what we've seen to date qualifies as "many."

3. Au revoir to atheism.

If you're anything like me, you grow weary of listening to atheists arrogantly trash God and His Word, and mockingly dismiss those who actually believe He exists as silly, superstitious simpletons.

Well, after the Rapture, it's gonna be a whole new ball game in more ways than one. It occurred to me that after the Event, as the New Age narrative rapidly rises to the mainstream and full alien disclosure is released and beings of light begin to show up to guide us, atheism will become passé.

In no time at all, atheism will become the least hip thing imaginable—and arrogant, know-it-all atheists will be deemed positively gauche. In reality, it will ultimately reach the point where atheism will be a capital offense, as those who refuse to worship and serve "the Christ" and willingly become part of his marvelous new global economic system and one-world religion designed to lead the world into a golden New Age of enlightenment and prosperity are hunted down and executed for the benefit of the rest of mankind. In the words of Bob Dylan's "Gotta Serve Somebody":

"But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed
You're gonna have to serve somebody,
It may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody."

And serve they will, because they will be subject to the strong delusion God will send upon a post-Rapture world that has stubbornly rejected the truth that is found only in Christ.

Satan has been deceived by the lies of Satan! One thing that leaps out at me about this New Age narrative that is quietly being prepared to come into play after the Rapture is the fact that the entire program is carefully geared to a pre-trib Rapture. The Event is what kicks it all off, and it is patently obvious that the Event is the Rapture; but if the Rapture is not pre-trib, Satan's plan is flat-out stupid and doesn't make a lick of sense—it all falls to pieces. In order to deceive the Church into taking its eyes off the Lord, Satan has influenced legions of believers as well as unbelieving wolves in sheep's clothing to tear down and trash the doctrine of the pre-trib Rapture with a degree of vitriol and venom seldom seen in Evangelical Christianity. "The pre-trib Rapture is a lie of Satan," they cry. "It was invented in the nineteenth century by a huckster named J. N. Darby," they insist. "Satan has used this pre-trib fib to lull the Church to sleep so it won't be prepared for the Tribulation that Jesus promised us we would go through," they snarl. And on it goes. Well, apparently Satan didn't get the memo, and is so confused that he is now deceiving himself.

Are you ready to "ascend"?

One thing is crystal clear: The New Age narrative that will sweep the world in the wake of the Event/Rapture takes what God's Word says and rips it inside out and turns it on its head in order to deceive people. For example:

The New Age narrative says: Those removed at the Event are just not ready to ascend to the Christ-consciousness.

God's Word says: Those removed at the Rapture are ready to ascend...to meet the Lord in the air, that is. And not because they have attained the consciousness of Christ, but because they have trusted in the cross of Christ.

The New Age narrative says: Those left behind at the Event are spiritually superior to those who were taken, and many are about to realize they are one with God.

God's Word says: Those left behind at the Rapture are spiritually lost, and many are about to realize the wrath of a holy God they are separated from.

The New Age narrative says: The Event will remove the darkness from the earth, causing it to move into the light.

God's Word says: The Rapture will remove the light from the world, causing it to move into the darkness.

As usual, Satan takes whatever God says and flips it topsy-turvy.

I've said it before, but I believe it is highly instructive to take an occasional look at what Satan is doing or preparing, much in the same way an army benefits from observing enemy troop movements. And the enemy's troop movements are telling us something loud and clear:

Satan is prepped to unleash a highly organized deception on the world on the heels of the Rapture (aka the Event), which will be explained away as the sudden, temporary evacuation of those who are neither prepared to face the coming earth changes nor fit to participate in mankind's ascension process. These evacuees are those filled with dark, negative energy and whose dogmatic, divisive thought patterns are of the past; and since they will do nothing but hold everyone else back, they must be safely removed for the good of mankind and the entire planet. This evacuation will be carried out by a benevolent, highly spiritually evolved race of extraterrestrials who have come to assist and guide us on our journey toward higher levels of spiritual consciousness.

It is worth noting that Satan's lies have never changed. During the Tribulation, he will offer mankind the same thing he offered Eve in the Garden of Eden:

Satan's New Age narrative, which will be kicked into high gear by the Event, represents the ultimate offer—but it's essentially the same offer. It holds out to man the tantalizing possibility of an ascension process that will result in the attainment of the highest levels of spiritual enlightenment: the Christ-consciousness and oneness with God.

But just as it was in the Garden of Eden, it's a lie designed to deceive mankind into believing they can become like God or ascend to be one with God through their own efforts. Tragically, however, those who take the bait won't ascend, they will descend into the lake of fire for eternity, right along with the mastermind of the Event and all its attendant New Age lies.

On the other hand, rather than believing that they can somehow ascend and become one with God by themselves, some have realized their sin has separated them from God and trusted in complete faith in Christ's finished work of atonement for their salvation, and that alone.

If you're one of them, you are definitely ready to "ascend" at the "Event."

And what an "Event" it's going to be!
