UFO Researcher Becomes Christian After Investigating 700 Abduction Claims

A UFO researcher says his investigation into approximately 700 alleged alien abduction cases led him to embrace Christianity, as survivors reported their experiences ceased when they invoked the name of Jesus.

Joe Jordan, 72, a safety professional at the Blue Origin Rocket Factory in Florida, has spent 32 years researching UFO sightings and abduction claims. He told the Daily Mail that individuals who called out to Jesus or God during these encounters reported an immediate end to the phenomenon without further harm.

Jordan's research has convinced him of the existence of a higher power, and he now suggests that UFO sightings might be spiritual visitations, a perspective shared by some in the religious community who interpret such encounters as demonic.

"The way it changed my life is seeing that the power and the name and authority of Jesus Christ convinced me 100 percent that God is real, the Bible is real, Jesus was real... You call on him for help; he's there for help," Jordan stated.

The U.S. government has consistently maintained that there is no evidence to prove the existence of UFOs or alien life, a stance that remains unchanged despite the Pentagon's ongoing public disclosure of information regarding unidentified aerial phenomena.

As skepticism about alien contact persists, Jordan noted that discussions around UFOs are broadening beyond extraterrestrial explanations. Some now consider 'non-human' phenomena, with terms like 'interdimensional,' 'extradimensional,' and 'ultradimensional' being used instead of solely 'extraterrestrial biological entities from other worlds.'

Jordan's research suggests a potential connection to the occult, claiming that abduction experiences often occur after individuals engage with practices considered contrary to religious doctrine. He stated that many experiencers had been "dabbling in the occult, the paranormal, even the UFO phenomenon itself." These activities, he believes, create an opportunity for these entities to influence individuals.

He posited that these encounters are not literal abductions but rather "demonic vision, demonic spiritual visionary experience that's given to them." Jordan began his UFO research in the 1990s after reading about the 1947 Roswell incident and joined the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in 1992, becoming a field investigator.

Jordan's focus shifted to abduction claims after encountering a case where a survivor, identified as 'Bill D,' described his experience as having satanic overtones. The survivor reportedly cried out, "Jesus, Jesus, help me!" and the experience immediately stopped. This account contrasted with prevailing theories among researchers at the time, who believed such experiences were unstoppable.

Jordan claims that other UFO researchers he contacted were aware of similar cases where prayers or calls to Jesus ended abduction experiences but rarely shared them publicly, possibly fearing damage to their standing within the UFO community. He alleged that a cover-up exists not only from the government but also from within the research community itself.

Before his conversion, Jordan described himself as a "New Age practitioner." He recounted a warning from a fellow investigator about engaging with "sinister and dark forces," which prompted him to accept a Bible and subsequently become a Christian in November 1996.

The idea that UFO phenomena might have a demonic or spiritual explanation has gained some traction. Vice President JD Vance expressed a similar view in March, stating, "I don’t think they’re aliens, I think they’re demons." Experts like parapsychologist Hal Puthoff and ufologist Jacques Vallee have also explored this hypothesis for decades.
