Pastor at secret UFO meeting reveals images of ‘translucent beings’,
Several pastors who claim they were part of secret meetings to prepare for the disclosure of UFO information have come forward to warn that the long-anticipated files may fulfill a dark biblical prophecy.
The Trump administration released the first batch of documents on May 8, revealing never-before-seen images and videos of strange craft and reports of alleged alien encounters. More are set to be disclosed in the coming weeks.
Pastor Joseph Zupetz and evangelist Tony Merkel told the Daily Mail they were invited to a private meeting in remote Tennessee in February, where intelligence insiders and former military personnel discussed the idea that the unidentified objects could be ‘interdimensional beings’ or advanced technology.
‘At the meeting, I was shown images from one of the presenters’ devices of entities that were translucent, standing in a wooded environment, with long arms and legs,’ Zupetz said.
He added that the organizers repeatedly compared the coming disclosure to the biblical ‘Great Deception,’ an end-times prophecy some Christians believe signals a powerful spiritual deception before the return of Jesus Christ.
Until now, the US government has maintained that most reports of mysterious phenomena in the sky have been caused by explainable things, including balloons, drones and even bird sightings.
However, multiple Trump-aligned officials have publicly stated they view many sightings of unexplained phenomenon as supernatural or demonic encounters, rather than UFOs.
Vice President JD Vance, Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna and former Trump ally and friend Tucker Carlson have tied the appearances of strange craft to passages from Scripture.

Zupetz said he and Merkel were among six Christian influencers invited to the meeting, which was hosted at an Airbnb in the mountains of Tennessee. He said the organizers were ‘former military personnel now working within groups that investigate non-human intelligence issues involving UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) and reverse-engineered craft.’
Merkel added that these ‘operators,’ who were not officially part of the US government, had held multiple meetings in recent months, claiming to pastors that the information about to be released would attempt to discredit the teachings of Christianity as part of the Great Deception.
The group provided details on advanced human technology, incidents of people being taken aboard UFO-like craft and beings of light described as ‘fallen angels’ – which were all expected to be included in upcoming UFO files.
Along with images of the mysterious ‘translucent’ beings, Zupetz revealed that he personally asked the experts about sightings of ‘reptilian’ creatures, which were reportedly discussed at a previous meeting with other pastors.
‘I asked at the end of the presentation, while we were preparing to leave, if there was any validity to all the people talking about reptilians,’ Zupetz told the Daily Mail.
‘This person told me that, based on their sources and people they speak with, some in the circles believe this to be true, but had nothing else to share with me on the topic.’
Both men believed that the entities allegedly being revealed in the forthcoming files were directly tied to the biblical warnings of the end times, suggesting that they were demonic in origin, rather than aliens from another world.
‘The great lie in this is that these interdimensional entities – the actual UFOs and every kind of supposed alien – are not benevolent,’ Zupetz claimed, adding that there was a growing belief amongst Christians that these beings were ‘interdimensional evil spirits, fallen angels or demons.’

Zupetz and Merkel said they are now warning other religious leaders that the impending images depicting angelic creatures and UFOs, which mirror scenes from the Bible, may push Christians to question how the universe was created and even lose faith in the religion.
Despite the Pentagon leading the interagency effort to release all UFO files to the public, the Department of War’s office in charge of investigating UFOs, known as AARO, has claimed that the majority of strange images and videos are the result of misidentification by witnesses and video compression glitches.
However, President Trump has claimed that data the American people would find ‘very interesting’ would be coming soon, noting that US fighter pilots have told him they were eyewitnesses to non-human craft flying by their jets.
The operators hosting these secret meetings told a different story from the president’s, claiming that up to 90 percent of the UFOs people have seen in the sky were actually ‘terrestrial’ – meaning they were advanced aircraft built by human hands.
‘They stated that the government is being told a lie, the government believes the lie and will disclose it as reality,’ Zupetz claimed.
‘The lie being put forward, according to the hosts, is that as disclosure continues, humanity will be confronted with a narrative about beings coming to raise humanity to a higher consciousness.’
Zupetz and Merkel went further, saying the disclosure had already been set up to paint Christians as the ‘bad guys’ who were holding humanity back. They claimed that those sharing the UFO files are prepared to claim Christians were close to the truth but ultimately mistaken.

As for the true origin of unexplained UFOs or aliens, the religious leaders described them as ‘fallen angel technology,’ citing biblical references in the Book of Enoch.
The Book of Enoch is said to expand on certain portions of the Bible. Specifically, it mentions ‘sons of God’ taking human wives and producing a long-lost race of giants known as the Nephilim.
Approximately 200 of these angels, also called Watchers, were said to have also taught humans about forbidden knowledge, such as weapon-making, sorcery and astrology, causing God to punish the fallen angels and wipe away their creations in the Bible’s Great Flood.
‘I personally believe that what we’re dealing with when it comes to the UAP-UFO phenomenon is the advanced staging of the teaching man how to do things they were never meant to know how to do,’ Merkel said.
‘What unfolded in the book of Enoch was the beginning stages of what we might be experiencing today with very advanced technology, because mankind has now gotten to the point where they’re able to do such things.’
Merkel, who had been in contact with the Christian operators hosting the meetings for more than a year, added that the organizers of their meeting said the timetable for the disclosure is ‘urgent,’ with the most shocking revelations potentially coming by July 8 – the anniversary of the Roswell UFO crash.
‘There is going to be disclosure coming, there is going to be a narrative spun, there is going to be, there’s going to be such great intel and information handed over, over time, they believe, that it could lead people astray,’ Merkel said.
‘Their whole point is to tell people this is happening whether you like it or not, and you need to be prepared for it.’
‘We don’t know if this is the Great Deception, but if this is the Great Deception, then it’s going to be so strong that people who even are professing Christians and believe in Jesus could be led astray.’
