The Great Deception: How the 3I/ATLAS “Mothership” Will Explain Away the Rapture

Posted October 23, 2025 | End Times Watch | River Wilde

In recent months, government officials and scientists have begun speaking more openly about mysterious interstellar objects, such as 3I/ATLAS — a so-called “mothership” approaching Earth. While the world watches the skies with curiosity, few realize that this narrative may soon serve a darker purpose — to explain away the Rapture of the Church when millions suddenly vanish from the earth.

When the trumpet sounds and the true followers of Jesus Christ are caught up to meet Him in the air (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17), the world will be thrown into chaos. Cars will crash, planes will fall, and nations will reel in confusion. The governments of the earth — already preparing for mass panic — will need a convenient explanation. And what better cover story than “extraterrestrial intervention”?

They will say, “It wasn’t the Rapture — it was a global event caused by higher beings from the stars. These beings have removed a portion of humanity for reprogramming, for the good of the planet.” The world, having rejected the truth of God, will eagerly accept this lie. The Antichrist will rise amid this confusion, claiming to be the one chosen to unite mankind with these so-called “visitors.”

Can’t you see how everything is coming together on both sides of the RAPTURE?

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
— Matthew 24:24, KJV

This is not science fiction — it is prophecy unfolding before our eyes. The groundwork is being laid through movies, media, and government briefings that condition people to believe in “aliens,” while blinding them to the supernatural reality of God’s Word. The world that denies Christ will gladly embrace an alien savior rather than the true Savior who died for their sins.

“Because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”
— 2 Thessalonians 2:10, KJV

The so-called “mothership” will be the perfect delusion — a smokescreen to hide the truth that Jesus Christ has come for His bride. Do not be deceived when you hear that “mass disappearances” were caused by an alien rescue mission or cosmic energy wave. It will not be the work of extraterrestrials, but the fulfillment of God’s promise to His people.

3I/ATLAS is moving at an extraordinary speed of approximately 245,000 kilometers per hour, making it the fastest known object ever observed within the Solar System. Its trajectory is unbound and hyperbolic, indicating it is not gravitationally bound to the Sun and will eventually exit the Solar System.

The comet’s movement appears to be primarily influenced by gravitational forces. However, some observations have raised questions about potential non-gravitational accelerations. For instance, the European Space Agency (ESA) has been monitoring the comet’s path, but there is no confirmed evidence of propulsion mechanisms beyond natural gravitational interactions .

Some scientists, including Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb, have proposed that the unusual characteristics of 3I/ATLAS might suggest an artificial origin. For example, the alignment of its trajectory with the ecliptic plane and the presence of nickel without iron—similar to industrially manufactured alloys—have been cited as potential indicators of technological construction.

This is what the scientific community is announcing.

Various sources claim that this “mothership” will be closest to Earth on October 29^th, 2025. I find it reassuring that “satan’s team” is actually giving us clues as to the possible timing of the Rapture, by announcing their counter measures of explaining such an event. They might fool those who do not follow Christ, but to those of us who remain connected to His word, they have just validated our belief in the celestial event of the Rapture, and perhaps have just given us a clue regarding the timing.

Now is the time to be ready — not curious about UFOs, but cleansed by the blood of the Lamb. The deception will come swiftly. The only protection is truth. I feel, like perhaps many of you do as well, that our time upon this earth is VERY short. To think that we are days, or weeks away from returning to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is exhilarating.

If you are not prepared, I invite you to become Saved, and give your life to Jesus Christ, accept His atonement and repent of your sins today, for as you can see, we are running out of time.
