Ezekiel's wheel and Chariots of Fire - Are these aliens, where did they come from?

I need help understanding this book. As I am not to knowledgeable on Ezekiel.
 
I can see how someone would mistake the Glory of the Lord as aliens, lol.

Ezekiel 1:4

The Glory of the Lord

4 As I looked, behold, ia stormy wind came jout of the north, and a great cloud, with kbrightness around it, and fire flashing forth continually, and in the midst of the fire, las it were gleaming metal.2 5 And from the midst of it came the likeness of mfour living creatures. nAnd this was their appearance: they had a human likeness, 6 obut each had four faces, and each of them had four wings. 7 Their legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the sole of a calf’s foot. And they sparkled plike burnished bronze. 8 Under their wings qon their four sides rthey had human hands. And the four had their faces and their wings thus: 9 their wings touched one another. sEach one of them went straight forward, qwithout turning as they went. 10 As for the likeness of their faces, teach had a human face. The four had the face of a lion on the right side, the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and the four had the face of an eagle. 11 Such were their faces. And their wings were spread out above. Each creature had two wings, each of which touched the wing of another, while utwo covered their bodies. 12 sAnd each went straight forward. vWherever the spirit3 would go, they went, without turning as they went. 13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was wlike burning coals of fire, wlike the appearance of torches moving to and fro among the living creatures. xAnd the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning. 14 And the living creatures ydarted to and fro, zlike the appearance of a flash of lightning.

15
aNow as I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, one for each of the four of them.4 16 aAs for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: their appearance was like bthe gleaming of beryl. cAnd the four had the same likeness, their appearance and construction being as it were a wheel within a wheel. 17 dWhen they went, they went ein any of their four directions5 fwithout turning as they went. 18 And their rims were tall and awesome, gand the rims of all four were full of eyes all around. 19 hAnd when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; iand when the living creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose. 20 jWherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, and the wheels rose along with them, jfor the spirit of the living creatures6 was in the wheels. 21 hWhen those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; iand when those rose from the earth, the wheels rose along with them, jfor the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

22 Over the heads of the living creatures there was kthe likeness of an expanse, shining like awe-inspiring lcrystal, spread out above their heads. 23 And under the expanse their wings were mstretched out straight, one toward another. nAnd each creature had two wings covering its body. 24 And when they went, I heard the sound of their wings olike the sound of many waters, like pthe sound of the qAlmighty, a sound of tumult rlike the sound of an army. When they stood still, they let down their wings. 25 And there came a voice from above sthe expanse over their heads. When they stood still, they let down their wings.
26 And above the expanse over their heads there was tthe likeness of a throne, tin appearance ulike sapphire;7 and seated above the likeness of a throne was va likeness with a human appearance. 27 And wupward from what had the appearance of his waist I saw as it were xgleaming metal, like the appearance of fire enclosed all around. And downward from what had the appearance of his waist I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and ythere was brightness around him.8 28 Like the appearance of zthe bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around.

Such was the appearance of the likeness of athe glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, bI fell on my face, and I heard the voice of one speaking.

(4) As I looked, and, behold, " refers to the fact what was described could be seen. In other words, it was not a figment of Ezekiel's imagination. The wind is the "Holy Spirit". It was the same "rushing wind" that came on the Day of Pentecost [Acts 2:2]. Actually, Ezekiel is given a vision of the traveling Throne of God, one might say.

(5) We learn from Ezekiel 10:1-22 that these "Living Creatures" are Cherubims.

Please read other visions God gave Ezekiel! Ezekiel 37:1-14 (The Valley Of Dry Bones)

People who think Ezekiel scripture is about aliens is delusional and consumed in imagination.
 
Aliens?????????????? My gosh people.........seriously.

5 Then the angel who talked with me came out and said to me, "Lift your eyes now, and see what this is that goes forth." 6 So I asked, "What is it?" And he said, "It is a basket that is going forth." He also said, "This is their resemblance throughout the earth: 7 Here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket"; 8 then he said, "This is Wickedness!" And he thrust her down into the basket, and threw the lead cover over its mouth. Zechariah 5:5-8

Their demons Brother Mike.

However, they are aliens.

Remember the promised land and what they had to drive out and destroy.

What were they called?

Look at this scripture concerning the 10 kings.

41 Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. 44 And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. Daniel 2:41-44

Did you get that Brother Mike?

They will mingle with the seed of men.

They is a "they", but not human.

The Enemy is about to get cast to the earth and confined here.

He has been preparing the minds of people to receive him and his angels as something other than what they really are.

Beings from another galaxy, sent here to "help" mankind "evolve" genetically in his abilities.

Most Alien movies are about the co-mingling of alien and human species.

Just as in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the coming of the son of Man, for "they" will be marrying and given in marriage.

Hey, thank you for that scriptures. I never saw this one...... :)

Why is God so mindful of Man, what is it about man?????

Satan has been trying to get some form of legal operating flesh creature here on Earth since Gen 6. Satan is a spirit, the thief that came another way, and has absolutely no authority but what we give him permission to do. He was pissed at Adam because Adam was everything that he knew he could never be.

So what do we do??? The plane between Satan's movement on his side, and into the physical plane..... Them folks that play with those Particle accelerators know it's there, but I doubt they will get through.
So, Satan makes up something that would seem more advanced than man. Space ships, big deal. Same as Ghost of dead loved ones, Familiar spirits.

If Satan can get his full ability in a flesh person He could operate in a legal way on Earth. He has been at it for a long time and one reason God wiped the earth and started over. He does get it done, the man is in Rev.

Now, what is coming up? Who knows, but He is still subject to the Name of Jesus, so no big deal to us.

How do you know so much JBL and not believe in Pre-trib rapture??? :) Best I can figure it, is that you must be able to hear the Holy Spirit.

Mike.
 
Are they aliens............NO But What of the symbolic language of the visions given to Ezekiel by God. I don't know exactly what they are, BUT, I do know if we don't see Jesus Christ on every page of the Bible we are probably on the wrong tract. Be wary of anyone who claims to know what these verses are about if they are not exalting Christ in there understanding of the scriptures . The whole Bible from cover to cover is about Christ, often explained and presented in parables and symbolic language and historical accounts. If you don't see Christ in each one your on the wrong tract. No prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 2 Peter 1:20
 
I can see how someone would mistake the Glory of the Lord as aliens, lol.

Ezekiel 1:4

The Glory of the Lord

4 As I looked, behold, ia stormy wind came jout of the north, and a great cloud, with kbrightness around it, and fire flashing forth continually, and in the midst of the fire, las it were gleaming metal.2 5 And from the midst of it came the likeness of mfour living creatures. nAnd this was their appearance: they had a human likeness, 6 obut each had four faces, and each of them had four wings. 7 Their legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the sole of a calf’s foot. And they sparkled plike burnished bronze. 8 Under their wings qon their four sides rthey had human hands. And the four had their faces and their wings thus: 9 their wings touched one another. sEach one of them went straight forward, qwithout turning as they went. 10 As for the likeness of their faces, teach had a human face. The four had the face of a lion on the right side, the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and the four had the face of an eagle. 11 Such were their faces. And their wings were spread out above. Each creature had two wings, each of which touched the wing of another, while utwo covered their bodies. 12 sAnd each went straight forward. vWherever the spirit3 would go, they went, without turning as they went. 13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was wlike burning coals of fire, wlike the appearance of torches moving to and fro among the living creatures. xAnd the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning. 14 And the living creatures ydarted to and fro, zlike the appearance of a flash of lightning.

15
aNow as I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, one for each of the four of them.4 16 aAs for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: their appearance was like bthe gleaming of beryl. cAnd the four had the same likeness, their appearance and construction being as it were a wheel within a wheel. 17 dWhen they went, they went ein any of their four directions5 fwithout turning as they went. 18 And their rims were tall and awesome, gand the rims of all four were full of eyes all around. 19 hAnd when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; iand when the living creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose. 20 jWherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, and the wheels rose along with them, jfor the spirit of the living creatures6 was in the wheels. 21 hWhen those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; iand when those rose from the earth, the wheels rose along with them, jfor the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

22 Over the heads of the living creatures there was kthe likeness of an expanse, shining like awe-inspiring lcrystal, spread out above their heads. 23 And under the expanse their wings were mstretched out straight, one toward another. nAnd each creature had two wings covering its body. 24 And when they went, I heard the sound of their wings olike the sound of many waters, like pthe sound of the qAlmighty, a sound of tumult rlike the sound of an army. When they stood still, they let down their wings. 25 And there came a voice from above sthe expanse over their heads. When they stood still, they let down their wings.
26 And above the expanse over their heads there was tthe likeness of a throne, tin appearance ulike sapphire;7 and seated above the likeness of a throne was va likeness with a human appearance. 27 And wupward from what had the appearance of his waist I saw as it were xgleaming metal, like the appearance of fire enclosed all around. And downward from what had the appearance of his waist I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and ythere was brightness around him.8 28 Like the appearance of zthe bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around.

Such was the appearance of the likeness of athe glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, bI fell on my face, and I heard the voice of one speaking.

ok if these are aliens then also you must assume that jesus is also an alien as they are seen in isiah, revalation and also in parts of the whole vision of God by moses, Daniel and john. its really nothing but the tabernacle. that is what the jews say. the beasts are also seen in exodus and images used to be ensigns for the way isreal lined up around the tabernacle.

Well said. Also notice in post#2, that I highlighted the words, The Glory of the Lord, spirit, like the sound of the Almighty, of the likeness of the glory of the Lord and I heard the voice of one speaking. For crying out loud, the title of the chapter is called "The Glory of the Lord."

@jasoncran Did I ever say they were aliens, no. Stop assuming, remember what we discussed. Assuming is bad. It was actually a friend of mine who thought of aliens.
 
Ezekiel's wheel and Chariots of Fire - Are these aliens, where did they come from?

I need help understanding this book. As I am not to knowledgeable on Ezekiel.

you asked that did you not?and the titles there and chapters weren't in the tanach. the jews sectioned that off years after that about 400 ad , and the Christians followed their lead.
 
I will be doing a study of this hopefully sometime soon as Ezekiel's Wheel fascinates me. The premise I will learn it from is based on Psalm 23:3 and James 3:6. But what would those two verses have anything to do with Ezekiel's Wheel?

In Psalms 23:3 "paths of righteousness" and in James 3:6 "course of nature" at their root in Hebrew and Greek respectively have cycles and wheel. So in Psalms 23:3 the idea is "cycles of righteousness," and in James 3:6 would be better rendered as "wheels of origin." So one idea, and Yahweh can insert many meanings and layers into the same passage(s), is it's a vision to have the people return to the cycles of righteousness. I firmly believe the Creator operates in patterns and cycles, versus a straight and linear line, of which God is making that point in Ezekiel's Wheel.
 
I believe ufo's and aliens from outerspace is false. Hollywood has put that into our minds and is false. What you're reading in Ezekiel is straight from the Lord and from heaven and the kingdom of God.

Aliens??? UFO's??? Cross bred angels I have also heard. Very laughable and not supported in the least by scripture. 2 Thessalonians 2:11 talks about a strong delusion by the Lord many will believe lies. Could UFO's and aliens be part of the lie? I don't know, but time will tell.
