CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND
A close encounter of the third kind is an observation of one or more occupants associated with one or more crafts.
Ted Bloecher added seven subtypes to the Third Kind:
A: The entity is observed only inside the UFO
B: The entity is observed inside and outside the UFO
C: The entity is observed near to a UFO, but not going in or out.
D: An entity is observed, although no UFOs are seen by the observer, but UFO activity has been reported in the area at about the same time
E: An entity is observed, but no UFOs are seen, nor UFO activity has been reported by someone else
F: No entity nor UFOs are observed but the subject experiences some kind of "intelligent communication"
G: Abduction: the subject is abducted by aliens
H: The alien is either injured, captured, and/or killed by the witness(es) and/or military personnel. The UFO may be captured and/or destroyed by witness(es) and/or military personnel.
(As Allan Hendry notes in his book The UFO Handbook, subtypes D, E, and F could be unrelated with the UFO phenomenon.)
I will take each letter of the alphabet and I will include a scripture and a modern day example. I was able to research many different encounters from the year 1972-74 (there was a major flap going those years). Pay particular attention to the locations of these occurances. This is important when we are determining that this phenomenon is not strictly bound to time, location or ethnicity. Also for those interested members, if you have any holy scriptures that you would like to lend to this discussion, feel free to post them and we can try to figure out what type (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H) of CE3 (Close Encounters of the Third Kind) they fall into.
Class A. The entity is observed only inside the UFO
Exodus 16:10
10 Then it occurred that as soon as Aaron had spoken to the entire assembly of the sons of Israel, they turned and faced toward the wilderness, and, look! Jehovahs glory appeared
in the cloud.
Location. Lower Hutt New Zealand

An unidentified woman reported that she had been awakened in her bedroom, by a blue light shining in her second story window, and by a noise like a spinning top. Going to the window, she saw an object like an inverted soup dish hovering over the next-door building. In the top, which was a clear dome, she could see two human male figures wearing shiny blue, sating like suits; their heads were bare. One appeared to be controlling the object; the other had his back to the witness. The far figure turned toward the one seen from the back, said something, and laughed. After about a minute, the object shot straight up and then disappeared over the Wainuiomata Hill. Her sighting frightened the witness and she said nothing about it for five years.

Class B. The entity is observed inside and outside the UFO
Ezekiel 1:4,5
4 And I began to see, and, look! there was a tempestuous wind
(notice the wind)coming from the north, a great cloud mass and quivering fire, and it had a brightness all around, and out of the midst of it there was something like the look of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.
5 And out of the midst of it there was the likeness of four living creatures, and this was how they looked: they had the likeness of earthling man.
Ezekiel 1:20,21
20 Wherever the spirit inclined to go, they would go, the spirit [inclining] to go there; and the wheels themselves would be lifted up close alongside them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
21 When they went, these would go; and when they stood still, these would stand still; and when they were lifted up from the earth, the wheels would be lifted up close alongside them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
Location. Near Dayton Iowa
Date: June 6 1972

A farmer was cultivating his fields in the middle of the afternoon when he saw a flash of light in the sky; an object then approached him and he saw it was egg shaped and silvery in color. It descended and just before it landed, legs "grew out of the bottom;" it set down in a cornfield 100 yards from the farmer. A port opened near the bottom and "some people" 4 or 5 feet tall; wearing one-piece metallic looking "flying suits," got out and moved about in the corn for a while before getting back in. With a "slight roar" and a blue flame the UFO disappeared into the sky. Where it had landed the vegetation had been flattened as if by a whirlwind. Other "nests" were found in several Iowa farm towns about the same time.

Class C. The entity is observed near to a UFO, but not going in or out.
Matthew 4:1
1 Then Jesus was led by the spirit up into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil.
Location. Kamunting Perak Malaysia
Date: 1972
Time: unknown
Two boys playing in the bushes at a local Army camp spotted a tiny entity, described as dark greenish in color and apparently naked, its head was egg shaped and no facial features were discernible, it had very thin legs and arms. A small object also rested on the ground nearby. One of the boys attempted to grab the entity but was "shot" at and he fainted. The other boy ran home to obtain more witnesses but upon returning both the entity and the object were gone.

Class D. An entity is observed, although no UFOs are seen by the observer, but UFO activity has been reported in the area at about the same time.
(I apologize for not providing a scripture for this instance. Part of it may be that there were no media services to report any news of UFO activity, another reason might be my ignorance or lack of remembrance of Biblical scripture. Anyone with more experience of the Bible is welcomed to share their knowledge.)
Location. Laurentian Region QuebecCanada
Date: Summer 1972
Time: night
A man camping in a remote area watched three bright white lights skipping very slowly over the area. About the same time he saw a human like figure sitting on a boulder nearby. The figure was dressed in a gray jumpsuit and was staring at the witness intently. They both stared at each other briefly then the witness became frightened and ran away.
