Top priority U.S. Military Report claims "Apocalyptic Christians" and
the Second Coming of the Christ could pose a serious threat to world
peace!!
(This may also relate to a segment of the population's beliefs in
"UFOs" and "Aliens")

One of the main characteristics of America's so-called Neo-
Conservative movement (although some people say that it seems to have
slightly lost its momentum these days) with the backing of
Fundamentalist, Evangelical Christians, is their total support of
Israel through the belief that contemporary Israel is the fulfillment
of Biblical prophecies and that the U.S. must continue to support the
State of Israel, no matter what.
A large number of these American Fundamentalist, Evangelical
Christians, therefore, believe that we are living the the "end-time"
period of God's prophetic calendar.
It is of utmost importance to point out some of the "end-time"
scenarios as believed by the supporters of this view.
Here is the typical order of the prophetic events to come, as outlined
by many of those Christians who seem to hold on to the so-called Pre-
millenial, Dispensationalist, Pre-Tribulation viewpoints.
1) THE EZEKIEL SCENARIO
They seem to believe that this could easily begin with the escalation
of the Middle East conflict, involving Israel. They seem to believe
that Iran and Syria will play a major initial role in this scenario.
They say that the Ezekiel 38 scenario includes the attempted invasion
into Israel by all Islamic forces (led and orchestrated by the
northern-most power, i.e., Russia) and will conclude with a miraculous
Israeli victory.
They believe that it is suggested in the Bible that it will take 7
years to bury the dead from this unprecedented conflagration. (The
U.S. will be involved, directly or indirectly in this conflagration,
they explain).
2) THE APPEARANCE OF THE ANTI-CHRIST
According to their belief, the Ezekiel 38 scenario will conclude with
the mysterious appearance of the Anti-Christ who will create a Peace
Treaty between Israel and the Palestinians (and all Islamic
confederation).
3) THE RAPTURE
They say that the Ezekiel 38 scenario could also conclude with a
simultaneous, mysterious disappearance of millions of people from this
earth, which will result in total chaos, confusion and fear among the
global populace.
This, they say, is the "Rapture".
It will be a mysterious, mass "evacuation" of the believers to meet
the Lord in "mid-air".
(The physical bodies will be mysteriously and instantaneously
converted to celestial bodies).
In other words, the so-called "born-again" believers will be
translated from one side to the other, i.e., from the earthly plane to
the heavenly dimension and will meet Jesus in "mid-air".
They say that the "Rapture" (from Latin "raptare", to "snatch" away,
as in the eagle "snatching" away her baby when danger comes and taking
it away to a safer location, etc.), is a supernatural event clearly
suggested in the Bible that has not happened yet in the history of
mankind, but will be certain to happen, according to most of these pre-
tribulationist, dispensationalist believers.
It will be an inexplicable, instantaneous disintegration of all atomic
particles of each of our cells of our tissues, i.e., the instant
conversion of our physical body into a spiritual, celestial "body"
which will be swooshed up into "mid-air".
In other words, they believe that "in the twinkling of an eye", our
physical bodies will go through a mysterious, sudden
transmogrification (a favorite word used by John Keel) and will be
lifted up to meet the Lord in "mid-air". Our entire physical bodies
(the tissues, the cells will go through a sudden, inexplicable atomic
fission-type transformation, they say.)
They believe that the "Rapture" is a conduit prepared by God for us to
escape the coming global wrath known as the Tribulation (comparable to
the days of Noah, when God safely place a few faithful believers in
the ark first and then caused the rain to pour down thereafter).
Pre-tribulationist, dispensationalists believe that this unprecedented
event will take place simultaneously with the appearance (the
revealing) of the Anti-Christ.
The Anti-Christ, according to these believers, will not be able to
come to power until the "body of believers" (together with the
presence of the Holy Spirit) is removed from this earth.
Only then, at that moment, can the Anti-Christ come into power.
According to these Christians, the "Rapture" will literally be a
celestial wedding, the union of the bride (the "church" or "the body
of believers") and the Groom (Jesus Christ).
This "wedding" celebration in the air will last for 7 days, which
could be equivalent to 7 earthly years.
4) THE ANTI-CHRIST SUCCEEDS IN CALMING DOWN THE STUNNED, CONFUSED AND
PANIC-STRICKEN POPULACE
When the Anti-Christ appears on global emergency TV news conference,
many of these Fundamentalist Christians say that he would calm down
the frightened people of the earth with his ingenious, well-calculated
explanation regarding the sudden disappearance of millions of people
from the earth; this could be when "UFOs" are brought up; the Anti-
Christ could use some type of "extraterrestrial" intervention
explanation.
(By the way, in the U.S., the majority of the so-called
Fundamentalist, Evangelical Christians hold on to the viewpoint that
somehow the "UFO" phenomenon is "Satanic" or "diabolical".
These groups seem to believe that "UFOs" will play a major role in
these future biblical prophecies.
Some theorists even believe that if a global government of some sort
is to be set up intentionally (by force) in the future, there are
several ways to accomplish it. Creating wars is one example, they say.
Creating other series of "crises" is another, such as manipulating
natural global catastrophes, or even creating artificial ones. Some
researchers call this the "ORDO AB CHAOS" theory.
They also point out that Henry Kissinger at one time suggested that
should the world suddenly face an external threat (i.e., from "outer
space") whether REAL or PROMULGATED, it would accelerate a cry for a
global unified government. They say that Ronald Reagan and Gorbachev
also had allegedly made such similar remarks, that if the world is
faced with such an extraterrestrial threat, we will all forget our
differences and be united as one to defend this earth from such
threats.
Some conspiracy theorists seem to pose this question:
Can the "world government" stage a deceptive, "alien contact/landing"
scenario?
If the secret government were to stage such a fake, "extraterrestrial"
type of event, it would definitely be beneficial to them if there
remains an adamant element of society who have always believed in
"UFOs" and "aliens").
In any case, Fundamentalist, Evangelical Christians seem to believe
that somehow the Anti-Christ will come up with a brilliant, convincing
explanation for the "Rapture" event and that somehow (supernaturally)
the world will have a sigh of relief by his explanation.
By the way, here is an interesting item regarding the concept of the
"Rapture":
PROJECT BLUE BEAM and the coming GRAND DECEPTION

5) THE BEGINNING OF THE 7-YEAR TRIBULATION PERIOD
According to these fundamentalists, this event will be the beginning
of the 7-year Tribulation Period (i.e., the "New World Order" of the
Anti-Christ, the first half of which will be relatively and
deceptively peaceful, and the second half of which will be an iron-
fisted rule of the Anti-Christ, who will declare himself to be God at
mid-point).
6) THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON:
Towards the end of the 7th year, nations such as Red China (and the
rest of the "Kings of the East") will challenge the dictatorship of
Anti-Christ's Europe-based New World Order and will begin to cross the
Euphrates and make a move towards the valley of Megiddo.
This battle, the battle of Armageddon, will be the final global
battle.
During the climax of this battle, celestial forces led by Jesus Christ
(and accompanied by those who had been "raptured") will descend and
will destroy all earthly forces.
7) A THOUSAND YEAR REIGN OF JESUS CHRIST FROM ISRAEL
Jesus Christ, according to these believers, will rule from Israel for
a 1,000 years.
This is the Millenial Kingdom.
8) FINAL, MINOR REBLLION
At the end of the 1000 years, there will be a minor rebellion by the
descendants of those who may have survived the Armageddon and
continued to procreate, thus having physical bodies.
That minor rebellion will be crushed by God, these believers say.
9) THE FINAL JUDGMENT
This is the gist of the events to occur in the near future, according
to many of the so-called Fundamentalist, Dispensationalist,
Evangelical, Pre-Millenial, Pre-Tribulationist Christians.
Is this all wild, "science fiction"?
Maybe. But again, no one knows.
Does it hurt to believe in this "unbelievable" scenario?
These Evangelical Christians seem to say that it won't hurt at all to
believe that such scenarios could come true.
They say that they have nothing to lose by believing in it even if it
doesn't come true, but everything to gain if it indeed takes place, if
one is a believer.

P.S.
UFO researcher, Sean Casteel, recently wrote a book called:
SIGNS AND WONDERS OF THE SECOND COMING,
Will He arrive on a cloud of glory?
Inside of a UFO?
Surrounded by angels? or as a hologram seen all over the world?
Casteel quotes from a Top Priority U.S. Military Report which claims
that "Apocalyptic Christians" and the Second Coming of the Christ
could pose a serious threat to world peace.
He says:
(QUOTE):
According to the Prophetic News Service and other major Christian
media, the U.S. military recently commissioned a monograph for the
U.S. Army School of Advanced Military Studies as authored by Maj.
Brian L. Stuckert.
This report - in no uncertain terms - declares that "those who believe
in 'Dispensational Millenialism', the literal return of Jesus Christ
to this earth to reign on His throne for 1,000 years, to be the
enemies of America and totally unsuitable to serve in a leadership
capacity.
"Maj. Stuckert actually goes further with his ideas", states Prophetic
News, "when he clearly says that those with these kinds of religious
beliefs, spawned by a literal interpretation of the Scriptures, are an
actual danger to world peace, and will, in fact, if allowed to
influence 'public policy', bring America to total defeat in the world
arena".
This report, released in 2008, was endorsed by several high ranking
officers at the Army School and distributed to top level military
personnel, though they adamantly refuse to provide a list of those it
has been passed around to.
An accurate definition of "Dispensational Millenialism" is provided
which includes:
A belief system that believes that the world is going to be purified
through a dramatic sweeping change.....is based on a battle between
good and evil in the Book of Revelation.....And contends that in the
very near future Jesus Christ will 'rapture' or remove His church from
the Earth, and that finally a period of intense tribulation and
battles will follow culminating with the cataclysmic defeat of Satan.
