One of the most striking—and least discussed—aspects of the modern UAP and alien abduction phenomenon is that these experiences can be stopped immediately and permanently by invoking the name and authority of Jesus Christ. CE4 Research has documented case after case in which terror, paralysis, and entity manifestation ceased the moment a sufferer called on Christ.
This raises an important theological question:
Where does this authority come from?
Why does the name of Jesus stop “alien” encounters when no other method does?
The answer lies not in extraterrestrial biology, but in the identity of Jesus Christ and the nature of the beings involved. Once these two realities are properly understood, the effectiveness of Christ’s authority becomes not mysterious—but inevitable.
1. Christ’s Authority Comes From His Identity as Creator
The New Testament leaves no ambiguity about who Jesus is:
“For by Him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible… and He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.”
—Colossians 1:16–17
This means:
• Every realm
• Every dimension
• Every order of spiritual being
• Every power and principality
exists because He created them.
If something is truly “non-human,” then by definition it falls under:
• “all things in heaven”
• or “all things invisible”
This includes angels, fallen angels, demons, and any forms they may take. Therefore, the authority of Christ is not contextual—it is universal, rooted in His identity as Creator of all life and Sovereign over every realm of existence.
If so-called “aliens” were actual biological extraterrestrials, Jesus would still be their Creator.
If they are spiritual entities masquerading as extraterrestrials, Jesus is their Sovereign and Judge.
Either way—
His authority covers them.
2. Christ’s Authority Comes From His Victory Over the Powers of Darkness
Scripture teaches that the world is not only physical but spiritual, populated by intelligent beings who oppose God and deceive humanity. Their power over mankind is rooted in sin, fear, and ignorance.
But the cross ended that power.
“Having disarmed the powers and authorities, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.”
—Colossians 2:15
The “powers and authorities” (archai and exousiai) refer to:
• demonic entities
• fallen angels
• principalities
• rulers of spiritual darkness
These are the very categories into which the “alien” entities demonstrably fall based on their behavior:
• deception
• fear
• paralysis
• false theology
• intrusion
• oppression
• manipulation of consciousness
Jesus defeated them decisively and permanently. Their authority over humanity was broken. They now operate only through deception, not dominion.
This is why their power collapses instantly when confronted with the name of Jesus:
They have no legal right to continue.
3. Christ’s Authority Comes From His Exalted Position
After His resurrection, Jesus proclaimed:
“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.”
—Matthew 28:18
Not some authority.
Not authority limited to the religious sphere.
Not authority over humans only.
All authority.
In heaven.
On earth.
In the spiritual realm.
Across all dominions and dimensions.
This means:
• No intelligence exists outside His jurisdiction.
• No being—physical or spiritual—can resist His command.
• No “alien” can override His sovereignty.
If the entities encountered in abductions were truly advanced extraterrestrials, Christ would still be Lord over them because He is Lord over the entire universe.
But because they are spiritual deceivers, their subjugation to Him is far more immediate and absolute.
4. Christ’s Authority Comes From His Name—Delegated Power
In Scripture, a “name” is not a label but a legal authority. The name of Jesus functions as:
• a command
• a declaration of His lordship
• a rebuke to hostile powers
• a seal backed by the throne of God
“In My name they will cast out demons…”
—Mark 16:17
This authority is delegated to believers—not because of their strength, but because of Christ’s.
This is exactly what CE4 Research discovered:
• When a terrified abductee invokes Jesus’ name,
• the spiritual oppression shatters in an instant,
• because the name carries cosmic authority recognized by the entities.
These beings flee not because of personal faith alone, but because they are confronting the One they cannot resist.
No other religious name stops an abduction.
No mantra.
No ritual.
No technology.
No mental technique.
Only Jesus Christ.
This is one of the strongest evidences of the spiritual—not extraterrestrial—origin of these entities.
5. Christ’s Authority Comes From His Kingdom, Not This World’s
Jesus said:
“My kingdom is not of this world.”
—John 18:36
The term “world” (kosmos) refers not only to Earth but to the entire fallen order. Christ’s kingdom transcends:
• space
• time
• dimension
• physicality
• human limitation
Alien proponents claim that extraterrestrials come from another “world”—but Jesus’ kingdom precedes and surpasses every world.
The authority of Jesus is not rooted in:
• biology
• evolution
• technology
• species hierarchy
It is rooted in sovereignty, a sovereignty not limited by physicality.
He is not a higher life form.
He is the source of all life forms.
His authority is not competitive—it is absolute.
6. Christ’s Authority Works Because Alien Encounters Are Spiritual, Not Physical
The effectiveness of Christ’s name does more than stop the experience—it reveals the true nature of the entities behind it.
Physical extraterrestrials would not:
• flee from a religious declaration
• collapse in the presence of spiritual authority
• respond to the gospel
• show characteristics identical to demonic encounters throughout history
But spiritual deceivers masquerading as aliens?
That matches perfectly.
The phenomenon behaves exactly like:
• sleep paralysis entities
• occult visitations
• demonic oppression
• poltergeist activity
• spiritist encounters
• possession phenomena
The same cause produces the same effect:
The presence of Jesus ends it.
The authority works because the entities are spiritual and already defeated.
7. Christ’s Authority Will Be Central in the Coming Strong Delusion
2 Thessalonians 2 warns of a future deception backed by:
• “lying signs and wonders”
• supernatural manifestations
• a narrative that misleads the world
The UFO / alien narrative already functions as a theological system:
• offering altered origins
• denying sin
• redefining salvation
• promising human “ascension”
• undermining Scripture
• presenting nonhuman guides
When the delusion reaches its peak, the only safeguard will be Christ’s authority, which exposes and destroys the lie.
The fact that abductions already stop in His name is a preview of the spiritual battle ahead.
Conclusion: The Authority of Jesus Christ Is Universal
The authority of Jesus Christ over so-called “aliens” comes from:
1. His identity as Creator of all beings
2. His victory over the powers of darkness
3. His exaltation to universal sovereignty
4. The power of His name as a legal command
5. The spiritual, not extraterrestrial, nature of alien encounters
This is why:
• Buddhists cannot stop abductions.
• Muslims cannot stop abductions.
• Atheists cannot stop abductions.
• New Age channelers cannot stop abductions.
• Technology cannot stop abductions.
But the name of Jesus Christ does.
Not because “aliens fear Christianity,”
but because these entities are subject to Him as Creator, King, and Judge.
His authority exposes the phenomenon for what it truly is—
not extraterrestrial intrusion,
but spiritual deception
bowing to the One who rules every realm.
