Biblical Verification: No Alien Life in the Universe :: By David Cogburn

Published on: February 24, 2026 by RR10

The title of this article is certainly provocative. Why is it provocative? Where do we begin? The universe, of course. The world would say it’s common sense that the sheer size of the universe HAS to have life on other planets, DUH!

There are billions and trillions of stars and galaxies throughout the universe. To think we are the only ones here seems ludicrous, almost laughable to the world. That’s the way you think when you do not recognize there is a Creator God. They deny the Supernatural and try to force everything to be natural, including the universe through the Big Bang.

So, let’s examine the universe. The Bible tells us Creator God created it. The world says it created itself through the Big Bang and that all life finally began after trillions of years. Let’s stop right here and bring up two things that are so IMPOSSIBLE in the natural that no one can honestly deny them.

One, it is impossible for something to come from nothing, period. It takes something to create something else. Everything “visible” was created by a creator, whether it is the universe or a chair.

Two, it is impossible for nonlife to create life. The universe is composed almost completely of dark energy, dark matter, and ordinary matter, all of which are nonlife. The world has to go out on a mighty long limb to think the Big Bang came from “nothing” and that a nonlife universe can create “all life” – especially human beings who have body, soul, spirit and a past, present and future.

The true common-sense answer of how the universe came into being is by a Supernatural Creator God versus a natural universe on its own. Creator God has always existed, no matter how difficult it is for us to understand that. He not only created the universe but also created all LIFE in the universe.

This article is about biblical verification that there is no alien life in the universe. The world thinks otherwise, and there is a pretty good reason for that. For the past several decades, there has been an ever-increasing number of UFO sightings, now called UAP sightings – unidentified aerial phenomena. There have been hundreds of books, movies and TV shows all about aliens throughout the universe.

The most logical explanation for many of these sightings has to be they are aliens from other planets. However, assuming they exist, a more reasonable explanation is that they are beings from a different dimension, a spiritual dimension, versus another planet.

Genesis 6 tells us about some fallen angels who somehow were allowed to come to Earth and actually mate with women. They produced hybrid human beings known as the Nephilim or “giants.”

The Bible indicates they were so pervasive on Earth that they polluted the bloodline of the human race. Because of this corruption, God brought the flood to start over again with Noah and his family who had not been polluted with the fallen angels’ bloodline.

I bring this up to show these “beings” were here during the days of Noah, and Jesus says in Matthew 24:37-51 NIV, “But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. [Jesus’ Second coming] For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”

Jesus is saying that similar to what was going on in the days of Noah, so it shall also be in our day right before His Second coming.

It’s interesting that most of us know that we are living in the last of the last days. Many people feel that the rapture, tribulation and Jesus’ Second coming are very near. Over the past few decades, we have seen a proliferation of these UAP sightings. Spiritual beings make more sense than aliens from other planets.

To understand why the Bible shows there are no aliens on other planets, we first need to set the stage. Establishing a proper context helps clarify the answer.

To understand the mystery of the universe, we have to know ONE THING – WHY did God create the universe in the first place? The good news is God gives us that answer in His Word of God Bible.

Genesis 1:1 NIV says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” It also tells us that God’s first creation was His angels. Lucifer, who was God’s highest angel, wanted to be worshipped like God and rejected what God had established. One-third of the angels chose to rebel alongside him and fell as well.

God is eternal and dwells inside eternity. God has no beginning or end. Eternity has no beginning or end. GOD DID NOT CREATE ETERNITY. This means God and eternity are “linked together.” You could also say God “is” eternity through this connection.

There is no sin in God’s eternity. There is no death. Because there is no death, there is no “atonement” for the fallen angels where a sinless life could die to pay the price for their sin.

What happens in eternity stays in eternity. This explains why there is no redemption for the fallen angels. For those of you who follow near death experiences, one of the common comments from many of them is there is a “barrier” they could not go beyond or else they would not be able to return. That barrier is eternity. There is no revolving door between God’s eternity and the universe.

The Bible shows following the fall of one-third of God’s angels, God decided to create the human race. Now we are beginning to understand why God had to create the universe.

Because God knows the future, He knew what would happen after creating the human race through Adam and Eve. He knew they would disobey Him and sin by eating the forbidden fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden. The Bible shows us that God’s plan is to spend eternity on EARTH with us human beings, beginning with Adam and Eve. Eve blamed the serpent Satan for deceiving her and causing her to eat the fruit. Adam blamed Eve for giving him the fruit. They played the blame game.

God then had a conversation with Satan in Genesis 3:15 NCSB, where He said, “I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will strike your head, and you will strike His heel.”

This is where our sin nature comes from. There are only two seeds needed to create a human being – the seed from the man and the seed from the woman. God just told Satan He is going to come between YOUR SEED (Satan’s) and her seed (woman’s). God has just said that man’s seed has become Satan’s seed following Adam’s sin, which explains why we are born with a sin nature from “only” Adam’s seed, not woman’s seed. Adam was God’s “original creation,” and thus, He alone is responsible for the original sin. God made Eve from Adam.

This also explains why Jesus could not have a biological sinful human father or He, too, would have been born with a sin nature like everyone else. But with the Holy Spirit God as His biological Father, He could be born from a woman with a sin nature and still be born without sin due to God being His biological Father.

So, God knowing all of this in advance, brings us back to His creation of the universe. Remember, God dwells in “sinless” eternity, and there is no way He could ever allow human beings who are born with a sin nature to be born “inside” eternity or we would all be lost forever with our sin nature inside eternity at birth. Don’t forget, what happens in eternity stays in eternity.

So God does something He’s never done before. He creates the universe. Why? Solely for us human beings. God now needs to create a “place” outside of eternity that can “accommodate sin” as well as life and death, good and evil, etc. Think of the vast universe as a small bubble outside of eternity. One of the main purposes of the universe is to create TIME as well as life and death. God knew that He needed a “place” where His Son, God Jesus, could come to and actually die to save the human race.

God also knew that human beings would need TIME after birth to come to know Him. He understood that they would need the opportunity to enter into a personal and intimate relationship with Him. This relationship would be made possible through Jesus, who sacrificed His life on the cross to pay the price for the sins of mankind. Jesus loves everyone. Those who love Him in return – by repenting of their sins and inviting Him to be their Lord and Savior – are saved. He paid the price for all their sins – past, present, and future.

Remember, only no sin is allowed into God’s eternity in heaven. At death, those who belong to Jesus enter eternity free from sin. Those who do not belong to Jesus enter eternity still in sin, which separates them from God. They will spend eternity in hell, a place of torment.

Knowing all of these things the Word of God Bible tells us, it should start to bring about a new understanding of how the universe is designed to fit into God’s plan for the human race.

So, how does this prove there is no alien life anywhere else? Does the Bible say there is no alien life anywhere else? Maybe God created life in other parts of the universe and simply did not tell us about it in the Bible. IF there was life on – say one thousand other planets – it would have to be life that God created. Would that mean Jesus would have to go to those one thousand planets and die on a cross for them, too? Is that possible? NO, it is not possible for a couple of good reasons, which the Bible directly and indirectly shows us.

First, the Bible DIRECTLY tells us that God’s plan is to spend eternity on Earth with us humans alone and not aliens from other planets. Many believe His plan is delayed for around 7,000 years due to the sin of Adam. The Bible tells us that following Jesus’ Second coming and His one-thousand-year millennial reign, the human race will come to an end following God’s great white throne judgment, and there will be no more human beings and no more sin.

It is at this point that God will create ANOTHER new heavens and earth with NO SIN. God then no longer needs a universe that can accommodate sin, and this is why He creates a new heavens and earth without sin.

We now get to the INDIRECT reason there are no aliens in the universe. Since God is going to destroy our current universe and earth in the future, if there was alien life elsewhere throughout the universe, that would mean they all would be destroyed when God destroys this universe. Does that sound like something God would do? That is a rhetorical question.

Of course, all of these answers come from God’s Word of God’s Bible, which the world at large rejects. The Bible has proven and verified itself as the only book ever written by God. It contains hundreds, if not thousands, of prophecies written in advance of future events. Yet the world largely ignores and rejects these prophecies, doing so at their own peril.

I personally think God created the universe to seem infinitely vast, as it is to show beyond a shadow of a doubt He exists and there is NO excuse for not knowing Him. Scripture verifies this. Romans 1:20 NIV says, “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – His eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.”

God’s whole plan is to connect us to Himself through the Holy Spirit. The goal is for us to become His bride as we await Jesus. Soon, in the rapture, He will take us back to heaven for our wedding celebration and feast.

The Great Deception :: By Nathele Graham

Published on: February 21, 2026February 27, 2026 by RR10

“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh” (Luke 21:25-28).

Deception is a trick used by magicians. They distract you into looking one way while they manipulate a card deck or other item to seem as if something has happened magically. Deception isn’t a godly attribute when used to deceive people into believing a lie, but most people have used it at one time or another in life. You might tell your child to clean her room. When you go and check on her work, the room is nice and clean. Just don’t look in the closet or under the bed.

When Jesus spoke of the last days, He warned us not to be deceived. Jesus said it, so Christians should be watchful and only trust Scripture. Today there are many people who fill pulpits or write books who are far from Scriptural in what they say. Many people are deceived by New Age teaching or by the “name-it-and-claim-it” preachers, or by those who make it seem as if accepting sinful lifestyles is the Christian thing to do. We can’t change the world, but we can’t allow the world to change the church. Jesus warned us against deception.

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves” (Matthew 7:15).

In today’s world, instead of counting sheep in order to fall asleep, you can count the wolves who seem like sheep.

Deception has been around as long as humanity has been on Earth. Satan deceived Eve with his lies. “And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression” (1 Timothy 2:14).

Satan convinced Eve that God was wrong and the Forbidden Fruit was really good. Deceit is Satan’s favorite tool, and it didn’t stop with Adam and Eve.

God’s plan was to establish a nation to bless the entire world. God called Abraham to be the father of that nation. The nation of Israel came through Abraham’s son Isaac. Isaac and his wife Rebekah had twin sons; Esau was the firstborn, and Jacob was the younger. Rebekah and Jacob conspired to deceive Isaac into giving his blessing to Jacob instead of the older son Esau. Rebekah told Jacob to pretend to be Esau and take Isaac some food. Jacob was willing, but Esau was a man with a lot of hair, while Jacob wasn’t so hairy. Jacob knew that Isaac, who had failing eyesight, would touch him and know he wasn’t Esau.

“My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing” (Genesis 27:12).

Rebekah had a plan for that, too. She dressed Jacob in Esau’s clothing and used the hair from goats to deceive Isaac. Jacob did receive the blessing, but deception always causes turmoil, and there was much bitterness between Jacob and Esau. Jacob was the son whom God chose to establish the nation of Israel, and He would have made the way for that to happen had Jacob not deceived Isaac. Jacob had many struggles because he and his mother didn’t wait for God to act, but relied on deception.

God did use Jacob, also known as Israel, to be the father of the twelve tribes of Israel, and all the world is blessed because of the Jewish people. Christians haven’t replaced Israel, so don’t let anybody deceive you about that; God is not done with His chosen people, and after the Rapture, God will turn His attention back to Israel. They will face terrible times, called the Time of Jacob’s Trouble. Eventually, they’ll turn to God and call on Jesus as their Messiah. Their eyes will be opened, and God will fight for them.

As we draw closer to the end of time, we can understand more of what prophecy discloses. None of the Old Testament prophets could possibly describe modern weapons. During Biblical times, the most advanced weapon was a sword. That was true until recent times. Now we have airplanes, bombs, machine guns, and more. How could Ezekiel, or any of the prophets, have understood or described nuclear bombs? They could only describe the result of a bomb. When you read the ancient prophecies, try to discern what the prophet was describing through his own understanding.

Daniel wanted to understand the prophecy he was given, but it wasn’t for his time; it was for a later time…our time. “And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end” (Daniel 12:8-9).

Daniel couldn’t understand based on his knowledge at the time, but we are very near to the end, and things are becoming clearer. Study prophecy through today’s knowledge. We may not have all the answers yet, but we learn more each day.

Let’s take a look at some recent thoughts about the coming great deception.

There’s a trend nowadays to embrace homosexuality, and this is an abomination before the Lord. Jesus said the end times would be like the days of Lot, and if you understand what was happening in Sodom, you’ll understand how similar sinful lifestyles are today.

“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot: they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all, Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is reveled” (Luke 17:28-30).

The Rapture is drawing near, but like it was in Sodom, homosexuality is rampant, and most people aren’t paying attention. Schools have taught the lie of evolution for many years, and God won’t put up with it. He’s the Creator and requires us to understand that truth. Romans chapter 1 is very clear that when God is rejected as Creator, sexual perversion is a judgment.

All of creation is a witness that there had to be a Creator; things didn’t explode and fall neatly into place. “Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things” (Romans 1:21-23).

Because of that, God gave them over to sin; homosexuality is a judgment. Even “Christians” tolerate this evil within the congregation, and God doesn’t look kindly on homosexuality within the Christian community. “Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them” (Romans 1:32).

This has become so prevalent in society that now children are taught that even if every indication is that Johnny is a boy, he just might really be a girl. So, he’s given drugs to block his normal body development that allows a little boy to grow into a man, then his body is mutilated because some doctor or teacher has decided to help him be a girl. The same is true for little girls. This is a deception straight from the pit of Hell.

Jesus also told us that the end days would be as the days of Noah. “And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all” (Luke 17:26-27).

There is a deception by many Bible teachers that the days of Noah were just very wicked times. They were, but this evil was caused by fallen angels having sexual relations with human women. A study of Genesis chapter 6 discloses that the “sons of God,” which were angels, not Seth’s sons, saw the “daughters of men,” human women, and took them as “wives,” thus creating hybrids known as Nephilim.

Today, mad scientists are learning how to mix the DNA of one species with another. That will allow a person who is deceived into thinking he or she is a dog to become a dog. If you don’t believe this is happening, look into transhumanism and/or transspecies. You’ll find that mice have been implanted with human genes, and spiders have been crossed with goats, and so much more. God won’t put up with it much longer. When humans go against God’s natural laws, judgment comes.

Lot had lived in Sodom but didn’t participate in the evil there, and Noah’s ancestors were true to God and didn’t join in with the fallen angels and their agenda. When God’s judgment came, Noah and Lot were protected from God’s anger. Noah was protected through it, but his great-grandfather Enoch was Raptured prior to the judgment. Lot was taken out of Sodom prior to judgment raining down. We can look around us and see God’s judgment will soon happen. Only Christians will be snatched away like Enoch before the Judgment comes. Now is the time to share the Gospel with others, and also be sure of your own salvation. Don’t be deceived.

Another idea about what the Great Deception will be is aliens. LA Marzulli is a Christian researcher who has much information about this subject. More and more people are admitting to seeing UFOs and aliens, and many claim to have been abducted. Even the government is investigating UFOs and the existence of alien beings. These aliens aren’t cute little creatures like ET who just want to go home, but evil servants of Satan.

Personally, I’ve never seen an alien and never hope to see any, but I don’t doubt they exist. I have seen some very mysterious lights in the sky over my house. I can’t say for certain that they were alien spacecraft, but they certainly were unidentified flying objects. I do pray for God’s hedge of protection to guard my home from all evil.

The Apostle Paul wrote about gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians chapter 12. Included in that list is “discerning of spirits.” Ask yourself this question: If all spirits are good spirits, then why do we need discernment? He also warned about false apostles who deceive people and claim to be Apostles of Christ.

“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works” (2 Corinthians 11:14-15).

Many who are deceived by the idea of friendly aliens call them our “space brothers” and say that we evolved from them. The pope even said he would baptize them. Yep, that’s deception, and a total lack of understanding about who Jesus is and why He entered His creation. Don’t be deceived by people who sound as if they are authorities about our “space brothers.” There’s a spiritual realm around us. God’s angels can come through on occasion, but so can Satan’s evil minions. The way to keep from being deceived is to study Scripture and understand what God says. You’ll never be deceived if you believe God’s word.

A very alarming deception today is AI. Brothers and sisters, be very cautious regarding Artificial Intelligence. The more I study this subject, the more concerned I get. Pastor Billy Crone has done extensive research on this subject and has resources for study. Jesus said, “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect” (Matthew 24:24).

Do you have any idea just how often you use AI and don’t even know it? Do you search the internet? Search engines brag that they use AI. Do you use a program that helps you to write a better research paper? AI helps you do that. Unfortunately, it’s not your own research or knowledge, but AI making you sound as if you know what you’re talking about. Would you like to see Jimmy Stewart in a new movie? AI can make that possible.

You can be assured that every commentary I write is prayed over and has no AI help, but has HS help…Holy Spirit. I’ve even heard of a church in Germany that has no preacher. The congregation sits in pews and listens to an AI robot. Does your pastor write his own sermons, or does AI do it for him?

God tells us that in the end, there will be a one-world government, monetary system, and religion. This can be accomplished easily using AI. The Starlink satellites are a major part of a grid system to watch people and enforce the decrees of the Beast System. Some say that the Anti-Christ will be an AI robot, or at least part human/part robot. AI can be helpful if used properly, but it has the power to deceive everyone. Be cautious when you use it.

So much is happening so fast, but like the people in the days of Lot and in the days of Noah, most people just don’t care and don’t want to believe we’re living in the days that the prophets of old spoke about. The only way to not be deceived is to study Scripture. Don’t just study Sunday school propaganda. Most is very shallow and won’t prepare you for a thumb war, let alone spiritual warfare. Study Scripture. Time is short, and we need to get busy. Pray that God will open doors for you to share the Gospel. Study Biblical prophecy and have answers for all who have questions.

“For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved” (2 Thessalonians 2:7-10) (NKJV).

We are seeing just the beginning of deception and the rise of the Beast System described in Revelation. The Holy Spirit lives inside of every Christian, and He is restraining the evil that’s coming. Christians will be Raptured prior to the takeover by the Anti-Christ. When we are gone, the world will be in shambles. Evil will prevail, and the Anti-Christ will deceive everyone. Avoid deception by studying Scripture and understanding God’s truth. Accept Jesus Christ for salvation, and the Holy Spirit will indwell you. Don’t be deceived.

God bless you all,
