Jesus warned that the end times would mirror the moral and spiritual climate of “the days of Noah,” when fallen angels descended, corrupted humanity and ultimately brought judgment.
Today, we see eerie parallels as stories of UFO encounters and reverse-engineered technology echo the ancient pattern of deception. Understanding this connection helps believers recognize the spiritual battle unfolding around us, and cling ever more tightly to Christ’s truth and protection.

In a recent Prophecy Watchers interview, host Gary Stearman sat down with researcher Lee Brainard to trace this pattern from Mount Hermon to modern UFO lore. Stearman opened the discussion by recalling Enoch’s account: “They … come down upon Mount Hermon,” imparting skills in metallurgy, pigments, and construction that humanity had never known before. Brainard agreed that ancient peoples hailed these beings as “saviors,” a title that, he warns, too easily became “nothing but satanic propaganda.”
They went on to draw a direct line from those first angelic inventions to today’s claims of crashed UFOs and clandestine government programs.
/**/As Stearman observed, “We all hear stories about major corporations getting hold of parts and pieces of crashed UFOs and reverse engineering and coming up with high technology. And I’m thinking to myself, that’s exactly what the Book of Enoch and the Bible say … the fallen ones bring technology to man.” Brainard added that mythologies across Sumerian, Babylonian, Greek and Roman traditions all tell of “god-kings” who taught warfare, empire building and economic exploitation, skills that have reverberated through human history ever since.
Why does this matter for Christians today? Jesus’ warning about “the days of Noah” calls us to discernment. Just as the fallen angels once used gifts of knowledge to lead people away from God, so today’s deceptions can lure us with promises of secret wisdom or savior-figures.
But Stearman and Brainard remind us that every lie is ultimately a tool of the enemy, bent on undermining our worship and devotion. Rather than chasing after hidden powers, we’re invited to fix our eyes on Jesus, the one true Savior who alone has power over heaven and earth.
Despite the darkness of these revelations, the interview offers an encouraging truth: believers need not fear. Christ has already won the victory over the fallen realms, and He holds us safely in His hand.

As we recognize the spiritual warfare all around, “principalities and powers, rulers of darkness in heavenly places,” we can stand confident in God’s unchanging goodness and sovereign care. Understanding the echoes of Noah’s day isn’t cause for panic, but an invitation to deepen our trust in the One who redeems and restores all things.
