Popular American pastors have warned that President Donald Trump’s release of ‘alien files’ could shatter Christian beliefs, saying churches should be ready to keep their congregations together. They claim officials in the administration have been in touch with them.
A group of popular American pastors have warned that President Donald Trump’s release of ‘alien files’ could shatter Christian beliefs, according to the Daily Mail.
They have claimed that US intelligence officials have held a series of meetings with them and told them to prepare churches to hold the Christian community together in the wake of the revelations’ shockwaves.
Popular evangelist pastor Perry Stone said that the alien files could include reports and possibly videos of aliens and extraterrestrial spacecraft.

“You’re going to have people who are going to say if there are galaxies and there are allegedly other creations in the galaxies, then the whole creation story is a myth, and you’re going to have people that’s going to apostatise and turn from the Christian faith because they have no answer for what they’re about to hear,” said Stone.
The warnings come weeks after Trump directed US agencies, including the Department of Defense, to identify and release government files on aliens and extraterrestrial life. He has spent recent months teasing what the alien files could reveal without going into specifics.
“We’re going to be releasing a lot of things that we haven’t. I think some of it’s going to be very interesting to people,” Trump said last week.
Christians may fall away from faith, warn pastors
Stone said that the upcoming revelations could make the Christian Bible look like a myth and cause believers to “fall away” from the teachings of Christianity.
The group, which also involved Bishop Alan DiDio of Revival Nation Church, suggested the Trump administration’s revelations will be part of a plot designed to pull people away from Christianity. But ultraconservative voices in the administration have taken up an anti-alien stance.
Earlier in March, Vice President JD Vance dubbed extraterrestrial beings as “demons”.
“I don’t think they’re aliens. I think they’re demons,” said Vance.
For years, right-wing circles in the United States have been writing and speaking about aliens and unidentified flying objects (UFOs). They have claimed that governments have hidden alien-related information for decades and want the purported cover-up to end.

In recent years, a string of lawmakers and influential commentators have become vocal about the need to disclose UFO- and alien-related information. Some of them have also linked it to religion.
Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna has linked aliens to the Jewish Book of Enoch and said it mentions aliens — the book was written 100 to 300 years before the birth of Jesus Christ. She has dubbed aliens as ‘interdimensional beings’ and said the Book of Enoch mentions 200 angels, known as Watchers, who arrived on Earth and mated with humans.
Luna has also claimed that she has seen evidence of alien spacecraft.
“Have I seen a spaceship personally? No. Have I seen evidence of this? Yes. Have I seen photo documentation of aircraft that I believe were not made by mankind? Yes. Is there historical significance to this? Yes,” Luna told podcaster Joe Rogan last year.
