Tulsi Gabbard Promises Americans the “Truth” About Aliens

During a recent interview, Gabbard was asked about videos of “UFOs”:

Is there anything—we’ve had some declassification of some very strange videos that look like they are unidentified flying objects. Is there anything in the files that you think you could find or have found?

And her response was rather cryptic:

Nothing that I am prepared to talk about today . . .

There are a lot of questions. There’s a lot that’s been put out there. I’m still going through and looking through what do we know and what is it that we don’t know.

As Gabbard and her team continue to investigate strange videos and objects that are difficult to fully identify, will she find evidence of alien life having visited earth? No, she will not. How can I be so confident? Well, because I have God’s Word and it gives me three primary reasons not to believe intelligent aliens exist:

1. Earth was created to be inhabited. The book of Isaiah (Isaiah 45:18) tells us that God specifically formed earth to be inhabited—and we certainly see that to be true! It doesn’t matter what extreme environment scientists visit—from the dark, cold depths of the ocean floor to piping hot ocean vents to intensely salty or chemical-laden pools in remote places—they always find some form of life flourishing. Yes, God designed our planet to be inhabited. No such statement is made about Mars, Jupiter, or some far-off planet (and, of course, we have zero evidence of life on any of those places!). So we don’t expect to find life in outer space.
2. Earth is the focus of God’s attention. When you read through Genesis 1, you will notice that it is earth that has God’s focus. We are given detail as God forms and fills the earth over five of the six days of creation. But when it comes to the heavens (which are mind-bendingly vast), we’re told God created two great lights for earth’s sake and then “he made the stars also” (Genesis 1:16 KJV). Yes, earth is the focus, not the universe.
3. The gospel is for humans, not ET. When Adam fell, everything began to groan from the effects of sin (Romans 8:22). So if there are intelligent beings living on a distant planet or next-door on Mars, they too suffer from the effects of sin, and yet they cannot be saved. Jesus became the God-man—not the God-Martian or the God-Klingon—and stepped into history to die on the cross and rise again, paying the penalty for human sin. He’s called the last Adam because he’s directly related to Adam and therefore the only perfect substitute for us. It is only humans that can be saved, so by extension, we understand aliens don’t exist (now, please note, this is not me saying aliens are going to hell, as reporters have accused me of saying in the past! This is me saying the gospel message being only for Adam’s race means aliens do not exist!).

Forget visits from aliens—are you ready for when you stand before the King of kings, Creator, Judge, and Savior of the world?

There are certainly strange phenomena out there that are difficult to explain, but the answer won’t be visits from extraterrestrials. Instead of obsessing over the possible existence of life in outer space, I pray Americans will become concerned with the one from eternity who stepped into history to live as the perfect God-man and die on the cross in our place. He then rose from the grave and ascended into heaven, and someday he will return again.

Forget visits from aliens—are you ready for when you stand before the King of kings, Creator, Judge, and Savior of the world?

The heavens are the heavens of Yahweh,
But the earth He has given to the sons of men. (Psalm 115:16 LSB)
