Mark Hitchock is an End Times preacher, Senior Pastor of Faith Bible Church in Edmond, Oklahoma, and author of dozens of End Times-related books, including Blood Moons Rising: Bible Prophecy, Israel, and the Four Blood Moons; The Late Great United States: What Bible Prophecy Reveals About America's Last Days (potential signs of the end times include “the rising cost of foreign oil” and “a tidal wave of illegal immigrants”); Can We Still Believe in the Rapture (with the late Ed Hindson); and The End: A Complete Overview of Bible Prophecy and the End of Days.
Yes, Hitchock takes a ‘Biblical approach’ to a range phenomena. He thinks for instance that UFO sightings are “demonic forces that are passing themselves off as some kind of extraterrestrial beings to draw and distract people’s [whose?] attention away from God.” Indeed, “I think it’s very possible that these kinds of things also could be setting people up for various kinds of delusion in the End Times” – just think about it – Hitchock said (he seems to be intimately familiar with such kinds delusions), and UFOs are “just another one of Satan’s tactics, especially as we draw nearer to the End Times”.
Diagnosis: Probably mostly harmless. People do buy his books, apparently, but those people would buy anything anyways.
