Are They Ready For This?

Was that his car? Maybe it held the key to who he was. He stepped off the curb feeling wobbly but managed to reach the car without falling. He opened the passenger door but saw no keys in the ignition. He felt his pants pockets but felt nothing inside. He opened the glove box. Inside he found car insurance papers, registration papers, and a 38 caliber. Why would he have a gun if this was his car? Maybe the papers would have his name on them. Slipping the gun into his belt he reached for the envelopes. Thr first envelope held the registration. The paper he pulled out had an official seal stamped on it. It was registered to the Central Intelligience Agency. Slipping it back in the envelope he opend the insurance envelope. It also had the Central Intelligience Agency on it. Was he a government agent? He searched the rest of the vehicle finding only a duffle bag in the trunk. Inside he found fresh clothes and a framed picture. It showed the face of an attractive smiling woman holding a little girl about 3 years old. Did he know them? No memory came to him. Nothing else in the bag to help him figure out who he was.

Kevin noticed the sun was setting and began walking Emily back toward the cabins. " I know I have alot more testimony to tell you about, but they will be calling us for dinner soon and we should get back. We have lots of time in the days ahead for us to talk. I'm just so glad I met you." "Me too" Emilys voice came out soft and shy, but he heard her.

Julie, Dave, Sarah and Terry stepped out the cabin door. "Oh my gosh, there she is".
Julie ran toward Emily and embraced her. "Where have you been?' "I was so worried".  Emily hugged Julie back and introduced Kevin to the four. Emily told Julie where she had been and what happened as Kevin laughed and said " She almost got shot". Julie was so relieved that Emily was ok she could'nt stay upset with her for long. "Well its chow time so lets say we all 5 go eat and finish this conversation over dinner, I'm freezing out here". "Sounds good to me" replied Kevin.

As they entered the main hall they could hear Rabbi Abraham speaking to the crowd.

Brothers and Sister's please gather around" the Rabbi calls forth "the Word of God says our adversary the devil roams around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour" "let us pray even this night for God's protection and wisdom and even as the enemy would come at us like a flood our God will raise a standard against him!" "Please let us all begin to pray"

The 5 found seats right away, as a holy hush fell over the crowd.

Kneeling in the Holy of Holies the Messenger ask, "Lord what would you have me do?" " Take your band of angels to the Lakeshore compound and encircle the camp. Keep your shields up so that no one sees you. The evil one has begun to unleash his minions in this nation to destroy the work of my hands. The prayers of the rightous are being poured out and they must be protected this night."


Rabbi Abraham rose from his knees to address the large crowd. They had all been in deep prayers for many hours.

" The Lord has impressed upon my heart that He has heard our prayers. Praise His Holy name. We are to go to our cabins and continue to pray throughout this night. I will read a final scripture to you that I pray will bring you strength and comfort not only through this night but in the many days to come. Revelation 7:9, 13-14
After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches were in their hands;… Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, "These who are clothed in the white robes, who are they, and where have they come from?" I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

May God Bless the reading of His scripture."

Julie,Sarah and Emily said good night to Dave, Terry, and Kevin as they gathered their bibles and returned to their cabin.

He checked out another car parked in front of the black vehicle. No keys, nothing in the glove box. Strange he thought to himself. Were would the owners of these cars gone? Looking on the floorboard of the back seat he noticed something sticking out from under the front seat. He opened the door and reached down and picked it up. Turning it over he saw that it was a tract that said "How to know for sure that you are saved". Tucking it in has pocket, he picked up the duffle bag and walked back into the convienent store and put his things down just inside the bathroom. He hadnt seen a soul since he had woke up and found that stange. He had know idea what was going on with him or why he didnt even know his name but he felt the need to be cautious non the less.

Walking back out in the store which was now growing dark he searched the shelves to find emergency candles not knowing why he felt the need not to try the light switch. He felt the need to hide himself till he could figure all this out. He grabbed a newspaper from behind the register and took his candles and paper back to the rest room. Before shutting himself in there he went back out to find something to take away his headache and the nagging pain of hunger. Grabbing his 2nd coke he took the aspirin and ready made sandwich back to the bathroom and shut the door behind. He opened the lighter he had taken and lit the first candle. Trying to make some sense of his life he opened the newspaper and began to read.

Lisa found a quiet room to think in. She'd been compiling lists of "Events" to put on the website. She wanted to be sure that the national news (and maybe global news) was covered for those left to survive the Tribulation. Lisa also thought a basic survival guide would be good. Maybe a places with damage or newly implemented rules list would benefit Christians (things were going to get very scary for Christians in the upcoming days, and not everyone knew it):

Her list looked like this:

INCREDIBLE EVENTS

- 100 car pile up on Los Angeles Freeway.
- the New York subway systems are reporting major subway crash.
- 757 just crashed into downtown Chicago and exploded blowing up 4 apartment complexes
- 9:00 p.m. curfew
- Los Angeles, California, Kansas City, Missouri and the whole southern half of Florida have been destroyed.

And that was just what happened before she left her house to go to Oakland Coliseum. She could only imagine what she would find to add before it was ready to post on the website. Lisa decided she had her thoughts together, it was time to find Andy. Andy was sitting in the computer headquarters working feverishly when Lisa walked in. "Hey, what's going on?"

"You better go find Eric and the Rabbi and Brother Aaron, they are in the Mess Hall praying. Pray that we don't get hacked! Will you ask them to come here NOW!?"

Lisa started running to the door, "Okay, Okay, Okay."

The sun was just starting to peak out of the clouds as it began its rise over the new world for the day.

He awoke, his head laying on the duffel bag he had used for a pillow. His head was aching so bad. Raising himself up to the sink on wobbly legs he looked at the man in the mirror. His head had oozed during the night and a small amount of blood had dried on his forehead. He splashed cold water on his face and grabbed a papertowel as he headed out of the bathroom to find a few supplies he needed.

He checked out the stores coffee pot and began to make fresh. He knew he liked caffiene and as it brewed he found the supplies he needed. One bottle of peroxide, some cotton balls, shaving cream, a pack of razors, toothbrush and toothpaste.

Taking his treasures back in the bathroom he began to freshen himself. The newspaper had informed him of everything that was going on in the world but it had not helped him figure out who he was. The world he had read about in the paper was scary enough without the problem of not knowing who he was. He reached in the duffel bag and pulled out bluejeans and a pullover sweater. Perfect fit, he thought, must be mine.

Smelling the sweet aroma of the coffee, he went back out and poured himself a cup. A little cream and sugar and umm a danish he saw on the shelf above the coffee.

Parking himself on the bench outside the door he began to think about the day ahead and what he must do. He couldnt just stay here. He had to make a plan to figure out who he was. Somebody out there must know him.

Andy again was totally distraught....the hacker had been more successful than previously thought.."how could I have been so careless" he was saying to himself out loud as Rabbi walked in "Do not fear Andy...what the devil has meant for evil ...God has promised to work for Good" "tell me Andy what is the update...what has you so upset" "Well Rabbi ...THEY KNOW WHERE WE ARE AT!" "Whoever it was that penetrated our security..has found us" I have fixed it and added a security patch and have added a new sequencing trip...so from now on it will look like we are in multiple places all across the globe..switching every two minutes...BUT the person or person's who hacked us ...They won't be fooled" "do you recognize their work?" YEA I think it's somebody I only knew from a distance...we never worked together...he was part of a secret society group....NOT THE GOVERNMENT? Rabbi probed further NO ...but they aren't somebody you want to have mad at you. Rabbi patted Andy's back and said ...God led us to this place NOT to be slaughtered but to touch lives...stand back and see the salvation of our Lord! The devil wants us to flee in fear..but I believe as long as we all stay here in this place we will see God's intervening sovereignty once again!" "like back at Oakland Colliseum? Andy asked" "Most certainly" but no one should leave the compound...because once you step outside of here I believe you are stepping outside of His protection!!!

Packing his duffel bag with all his items in the bathroom he ventured up and down the aisles stuffing it with sandwiches,chips, candy, drinks and a few extra bottles of aspirin. He didn't know where he was going but he had a strong urge to leave the store soon. Until he figured out who he was he had a gut feeling to stay out of sight.

Finishing up the lunch he had made himself he carefully closed the stores door as he stepped outside. He hadn't seen any traffic all day, but looked both ways before slipping across the road in to the deep woods there. Throwing his duffel bag up over his shoulder he began to walk south. He had located himself on the store map earlier. He figured he was about 10 miles from some town called Lakeshore California. At least he knew what state he was in. Maybe someone there would recognize him.

As Al and Hal opened the door of the bus, people started shouting and pushing to get closer.
“Hey you got any food or something to drink?” they yelled
Al looked at Hal with a somewhat worried look. Then tried shouting out to everyone who they were and what they wanted to do. Had they been on air the FCC would have pulled the plug on them for the words that was shouted back at them would have been against the law.
“Folks, one at a time please,” Hal asked. “You miss, how are you doing?”
The lady in her late 40’s or 50’s laughed at Hal then pulled up her top shouting she was enjoying her teenage years again.
Al remembering back to his younger years laughed then shock his head. “How about sir, why are you not working today, why is everyone here and what are you all waiting for?”
The man looked like a typical office worker, was wearing a white shirt and tie shouted back he didn’t have to work, since his wife and kids were gone, he could party with everyone else. The crowd started to shout again all agreeing that soon the government would figure out the problem and get things back in order but until then it was party time.
The older woman was now topless and dancing around as men of all ages were grabbing her, since one was not enough, the men started grabbing other women, ripping off their tops and tossing them inside a growing circle. Eight women in the circle now, five of them dancing and enjoying the attention while the other three embarrassed wanted out. The more they tried to get out the more the men became wild and started ripping their bottoms off and pushing them in. A few men took their clothes off and joined the inter circle but they were quickly pulled out to let the ladies dance.
The men really started going wild when two of the women started kissing, shouts rang out for a sex show and as if all thoughts of goodness had left, men were pushing their wives and girlfriends into the circle.
Soon the men in the back couldn’t see so they started to push in which started fights. No longer were the women the main attracting it was a free for all fight. Donnie sensed it could get very ugly, pulled Al and Hal back in and slowly pulled the bus away.
“Wow, did you see that, people are going crazy, I hope the government hurries up and gets this all figured out.” Al said as he grabbed a bottle of water and sat down.
Hal put his headphones on then pushed a few buttons and started the show back on air.

Hal: “Hey fan, you will not believe what just happen, I can’t tell you the details due to the FCC but people here in Ohio are going crazy, they are fighting on the streets and women are doing things I have never seen them do before in public.”
Al: “People please, if we stop where you’re at, don’t rush the bus there will be a lot of time to answer our question.
Hal: “There are a few guys walking down the street lets pull over and talk to them”
After the bus got stopped, Al stepped out and invited the young men over.
“OK one at a time how was the last ten days changed your lives? You first”
The young teenager looked as if he had not eaten it a few days walked up and spoke. “Party!”
“OK” Al said back, “Why party, you look like you should be in school.”
“Screw school, since most of all the other kids disappeared there is no school, we are free to roam the streets.”
Hal come out of the bus, “What about your parents what how are they taking all this no school stuff?”
Another boy stepped up, “They don’t care as long as I bring some food home. Say you all got any food stashed away?”
Al thinking quickly said no they were looking for food as well.
The third boy said the Walgreens down the road had the back door broke out but all the food and good stuff has already gone.
The first boy said that he had already broke into the house next to his and took most of the good food, he had left the can vegetables alone but he might go get them soon and try eating them but only if he couldn’t find anything else.
Al: “Say, did you all wonder why you guys were not taken? Most kids were taken I heard”
“My younger sister and brothers are gone and my mom said it was God coming and taking all those that went to church.” One of the boys replied.
The other one slowly backed away and said, no that was not it. I went to church sometimes and I'm was still there. Another boy laughed “Ya you went when your mom and dad forced you to go.”
“Well boys we hope you find so food, we are off to find some answers.” Hal said stepping back onto the bus.
