God’s Personal Flying Vehicle Described In ‘The Book of Ezekiel’
Tony Gliddon - AncientPages.com - We are in the year 484 B.C. Ezekiel, a priest, a captive in the land of the Chaldeans (Iraq) witnesses and describes quite well, some flying vehicles that appear to him.
For a man who has only seen ox carts for vehicles, he does his best to describe what he is seeing. A "whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire."
"Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures."
Taking the word "amber" back to the original Hebrew, we find that it means "highly polished bronze," or "glowing bronze."
Then he describes the vehicles as they move, "And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went."
Ezekiel is used to seeing an ox cart controlled and directed by using reins.
These vehicles had no reins, they went as they chose and turned not as they went. So, he sees a mother vehicle and four other vehicles flying in formation.
He goes on further stating that they looked like "wheels within wheels," and "when they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went."
Wheels not standing upright but laid down flat, on their sides. He further states, "And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning." Very, very fast vehicles!!
When these vehicles come to land upon the earth Ezekiel writes, "And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot; and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass." Good description of landing pads!
The mother vehicle had on board what was "the likeness of a throne: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness of a man above upon it." And the he states, " I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about it. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of he brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD."

"And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of One That spake. And He said unto me, "Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee."
Ezekiel witnessed these vehicles move from mountain top to mountain top.
"When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit in the living creature was in the wheels."
These vehicles appeared to Ezekiel on three different occasions. He goes on further to state, "And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creatures was the color of a terrible crystal, stretched over the heads above." Great description of the dome or cockpit. "As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four." Portholes? People inside?
In conclusion, GOD came down to visit and talk to Ezekiel in Person with HIS Throne on board HIS personal vehicle. And, there were four other vehicles in formation escorting GOD's vehicle. Ezekiel witnesses the appearance of these vehicles on three different occasions. And, GOD has a message to bring Personally each time He visits with Ezekiel.
Ezekiel does a great job for a man from 484 B. C. in describing what he witnessed.
These are not UFOs as they are identified, therefore, they are IFOs. I encourage everyone to read the book of Ezekiel and see what he says about his experiences concerning GOD's visitations.
Thanks for reading!
