An evangelical preacher out of Tennessee, Perry Stone, claimed on a podcast that government officials held a secret briefing for pastors. Religious leaders were allegedly urged by the ruling class to prepare their congregations for the imminent release of information about alien life and unidentified spacecraft, or UFOs (unidentified flying objects).

These revelations would upend the Christian faith, Sone said. Stone, a Tennessee-based Pentecostal preacher and founder of the Voice of Evangelism ministry, made the remarks in a podcast last week, which gained traction only recently, according to a report by RT. 

With Christian nationalism on the rise, if this is true, we may see a lot of people very upset.

Citing an unidentified friend, Stone said that “there were a large number of pastors who had been invited to go to a certain state to hear some men in the United States government and others share with them a concern that they had”.

The officials, he said, warned that forthcoming releases would cover non-human spacecraft built of materials “not allegedly a part of our planet”, as well as “very strange reptilian-looking creatures” – details Stone said, “almost sound like something out of a sci-fi movie”. In this vein, he speculated that Steven Spielberg’s upcoming sci-fi film ‘Disclosure Day’ could be loosely based on those secretive documents. -RT

As a staunch and vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, Stone has sided with Christian nationalism, a movement that has gained a lot of traction since the death of Charlie Kirk back in September. Stone said that pastors in the United States were told to be ready for two possible reactions:

The first from non-believers. These people could “freak out” and turn to churches for answers. The second reaction would come from Christians. “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 that some believers would “apostatize and turn from the Christian faith,” he warned.
