I came across the title of this book while reading "UFO: End -Time Delusion". Having had my own "encounter" at the age of 10 (1963), though not at the level of this account and since becoming a person of faith, I was compelled to read it. The book is well documented and I do credit the researchers for trying to remain objective. I am convinced that this was not contrived. However, I believe that the researchers failed to understand what they were dealing with. The researchers seemed to have no problems accepting Betty's account until, during the "Vision of the Phoenix", she was convinced that she was in the presences of God. Then they sought to attribute her recalling of the event to Betty wanting to reconcile her experience with her faith. In chapter 9 "Messages for Humankind?" as the researchers try to have her recall the contents of a book she was given, things take another turn. She goes from recalling the past to speaking in the present and even falls under "control" of the beings. At one point as Betty seems to be used as an intermediate (not speaking as the being), Joseph asks Betty "what is the truth" to which Betty responds to "I've told you the truth before, Jesus Christ is the truth." Once again the researchers attribute the answer to Betty and not the beings. But even if the responses of the beings are to be taken serious; David asks: Have you been visiting the earth for very long. Answer: Since the beginning of time. Another response that I have to highlight is in a later session when David is conversing with a being named Andantio (through Betty), David begins to insist that the being come and talk to him directly. The response, "Would the vessel tell the maker what it prefers to have in it?". I would refer you to Romans 9:19-21. The last detail I must share is having to do with the "Watchers". At some point the researchers become convinced that Betty must have had other contact with the beings that she was unaware of. In one of their further sessions, Betty shares a vision of her being forcibly abducted and taken to comfort a women who the "aliens" were removing two fetuses from. One with white eyes and one with black eyes. Betty identifies these beings as the "Watchers". I do not believe that Betty or Ray Fowler were familiar with the "The Book of Enoch". Even in Rays subsequent book "The Watchers I" he does not reference it. By coincidence I had just read "The Book of Enoch" (R. H. Charles did a fine translation of it). These manuscripts date back to 100 B.C. If you wish to know more about the "Watchers", I would recommend that book, rather then Fowler's. The "Watchers" are found in the early chapters. In later chapters is an extent covering "The Son of Man" which was the title that Christ used of Himself most often as recorded in the gospels. Bottom line, we are dealing with the supernatural. People are willing to accept "aliens" and even "interdimensional beings", but not supernatural beings who are (along with us) accountable to a Creator.
So many of these accounts, including my own, seem to have both a physical element (a memory recorded from our five senses) and a psychological element (like a memory that has been planted). And the psychological element (like a dream) does not necessarily represent reality.
Betty Andreasson passed away in March of 2022. I do believe that her experience was God ordained, but her "message" was not for the sake of the believers as she pretty much states in her regressions. But, rather to confront the world with the supernatural. In Second Thessalonians 2:9-11 it is recorded that God will send "a powerful delusion" to those who will not accept the truth. To me, this "evidence" should point us to the Creator who transcends this creation. To others, it has them chasing "aliens". They may even find "them" one day. But, even then, who are they really?
