U.S. Technology, the Sin of Concupisence, and Invoking the Wrath of God by the Joining of the Domains of Fallen Human and Fallen Angelic Creatures.
And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:28
The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of mankind, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown. Genesis 6:4
And angels who did not keep their own domain but abandoned their proper dwelling place, these He has kept in eternal restraints under darkness for the judgment of the great day. …But these people disparage all the things that they do not understand; and all the things that they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed. Woe to them! For they walk in the way of Cain, and abandon themselves for the sake of gain to Balaam’s error, and perish in Korah’s rebellion. Jude 6, 10 & 11
They turned the truth of God into a lie - and worshipped and served the creature—forsaking the Creator, Who is blessed forever. Amen. …For as they decided not to acknowledge God, so God delivered them up to a reprobate mind—to do those things which are not proper. Romans 1:25 & 28
“Concupiscence is among our choicest words to be recovered. Because of the great influence of Augustine, it has traditionally been associated closely with sexual desire, even within marriage. Its range of meaning, however, is broader. Derived from the verb Latin concupisco, “to lust for worldly things,” the noun concupiscentia is a word found many times in the Latin Bible (Vulgate). From there, it entered English in the early 14th century, but has fallen out of use as the Authorized Version (1611) has lost its influence on the language… Tertullian (c.160–c.225) argued that the root of concupiscence is idolatry.” R. Scott Clark, “Concupiscence: Sin and the Mother of Sin,” Recovering the Reformed Confession, 1/10/2015 at https://heidelblog.net/2015/01/concupiscence-sin-and-the-mother-of-sin/
Below is a YouTube link to an episode of the online journal “Redacted News with Natalie and Clayton Morris.” It features a formerly little known researcher, Ashton Forbes, who now has attracted a large following on X. Forbes spent a decade in pursuit of gathering, analyzing, and by a seeming professional level of analysis put together an astounding report with video evidence of what happened to the 2014 Malaysian Airlines flight MH 370 which has never been found. The plane with 227 passengers and 12 crew members went missing over the South Indian Ocean and the mysterious disappearance has never been adequately explained.
Forbes research reveals several things of note for Christians, all of which are significant if the seeming technology exists. As you read further, the fantastical technology brings to the fore for Christians an expression of sin whose usage lies more in the theology of the past than today, but a sin that is not retired from earthly expression and its deadly consequences, individually and collectively. The sins of Sodom and Gomorrah caused God in His righteous wrath to extinguish whole cities of people, without a Biblical note of whether all in those societies bore individual guilt or not. So, the sin of concupiscence, or by its clearest term used by the church father Tertullian , the sin of idolatry, can be hung, again, on the U.S. government and its rogue or authorized contractors, its individual leaders, agents, and the permissible U.S. society, for the development and nefarious use of a technology not intended for this world, today or forever. The short article by R. Scott Clark, as referenced above on the Christian understanding of concupiscence through Christian history, is worth the read. It can be accessed here.
It is said that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Well, the conversation with video evidence and logical scientific explanation on the link below provides extraordinary evidence for the extraordinary claim by Forbes. The video and scientific and technological explanation by Forbes is persuasive. If he is correct, American defense contractors with or without the oversight of the U.S. military or another of governmental research agencies have now developed the technology to make matter disappear. As astounding as it sounds, the military-grade satellite and drone video evidence shows three orbs of some sophisticated technology that encircle the plane in flight and the subsequent instantaneous implosion - disappearance, into empty space. The plane with all its 239 human souls physically vanished! Forbes gives expert explanation though to an uninformed observer, the scientific references are unfamiliar. He explains why the video evidence cannot be computer generated. Forbes claims that the technology was reverse-engineered from alien technology in recovered UFOs.
Added to the mystery is the American motive to eliminate certain passengers of interest. Aboard MH 370 that took off from Kuala Lumpur and headed to Beijing were perhaps as many as twenty engineers, many Chinese-born, along with their entire families in some cases, who were employed by a U.S. technology company - Freescale Semiconductor, which was on the cutting edge of developing high grade microcontrollers or microprocessors used in military radar and perhaps other applications. Forbes theorized that the Chinese engineers could have been fleeing to China (Freescale had a Chinese manufacturing facility) with the sophisticated computer technology in an act of espionage to take the technology out of American control. Four of the missing Chinese passengers were holders of the patent for the microprocessor chip- a patent with the proviso that if individual holders of the patent died, their shares of the patent reverted to the surviving patent holders. The only remaining patent holder still living after the disappearance of the plane and its passengers was one Jacob Rothschild of the European Rothschild financial empire - see here, here, and here. If you are a Netflix subscriber, a well done Netflix documentary presents the puzzling case of the missing plane, but without any of the evidence generated and analyzed by Forbes.
You should be warned that this video and discussion can be potentially unsettling. To hear and see a technology that can produce such results challenges our assumptions about the universe of stable and consistent natural laws. Children, teens, and even some adults will not find the implications of this technology reaffirming of their worldviews, and in fact may disrupt one’s worldview. Forbes’ conclusion is that alien UFO-technology was reversed-engineered by American defense contractors, so that the technology now exists to make matter vanish. Forbes makes the comment that most of the UFO sightings today - now referred to by the government as UAPs - Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, are of human, not alien origin. Here are a few sites to check further on the UFO or UAP phenomenon - Full video of House hearings on UFOs and Govt transparency, Wikipedia on UFOs, Wiki list of UFO sightings, and PBS & the context of UFO whistleblowers . Here is one of many book lists on UFOs.
There has always been a theological component to UFO-logy. The existence of alien creatures not of this world is provocative to some Christians who hold to the authority of the Scriptures which doesn’t mention alien creatures except for fallen angelic beings. Some Biblical Christians, such as the now deceased, internationally-recognized Bible teacher, Chuck Missler, accepted the present reality of UFOs and pointed to the Genesis 6 and Jude passages for reference and verification. Missler and others say that the aliens in UFOs are the fallen angels in material form and travel in materialized craft. The Scriptural passages in Genesis 6 and Jude refer to physically materialized, fallen angelic beings, which are quite different in form from the evil spirits cast out of possessed persons by Jesus. Other than those two passages, most if not all other references to Satan and the fallen angelic creatures who joined in Lucifer’s heavenly rebellion were referred to in the Bible as spiritualized entities not as creatures with a material, physical form. This technology, if it exists, challenges our understanding of science and technology, or, the application of science by human control for purposes good or bad. It also raises the question of whether humanity can morally control such technology. Another issue from the de-materialization technology is the possibility of achieving “zero-point energy,” which would be a dire threat to the present global political-economy. Also see here and here.
Such technology as this has theological ramifications. It inevitably presents another challenge to the historically orthodox, Christian Biblical understanding of the universe under the sovereign control of the Benevolent Creator God for His creatures and His creation. If this technology is now in the hands of humanity under the control of people with or without qualms about its efficacious use in the world, the world owned by the sovereign Creator God, Christians and theists will and should have the sobering thought about the response by the Almighty God to this human discovery and its implementation. Like the nuclear bomb, this kind of technology in the hands of fallen humanity has grievous consequences and ramifications in the fallen world. Though there would be beneficial uses of such technology under absolute moral control, say for example in human health and welfare, Christians familiar with the parable of the wheat and tares understand that such technology eventually can be categorized as fully susceptible to “the auspices of the tares.” If this technology now exists, though you will certainly not hear any mention of it in the MSM or from government agencies, it more than begs the question, certainly for discerning Christians, “Has humankind, in its God-given created glory as described in Psalm 8 and throughout Scripture, now moved further beyond its proper dominion over the living things of the earth and the earth itself in its explicit stewardship of natural materialism, given by the Good Creator God, and entered a domain of existence for which we are not equipped, nor qualified, nor created for?
To get a fuller understanding, you can refresh what you may remember about the missing flight at this Wikipedia site here and watch the entire YouTube presentation. Clayton and Ashton’s dialogue about the evil consequences of such technology at the end of the video are starkly foreboding and acknowledge the evil portent for humanity if such technology exists and if King Jesus tarries.
