"Lisa, this is Jerry, Joe and Mike - they are all new believers and incredibly talented computer geeks!"
Mike smiled and stepped forward, "Not me, they are computer geeks, I'm just here to keep these goobers in line."
Lisa laughed really hard - it felt really good - she hadn't laughed in nearly a week - the pain was still so raw. Tears welled up but did not escape her eyes as she listened to Andy outline their plans for the revived RaptureReady site.

Julie looked around the quaint little cabin. It felt so warm and cozy. It had a rustic fireplace that had already been layed with firewood and David had started it before he left making sure the flu was wide open. The couch in front of it was covered with down comforters and pillows that beckoned to Emily who felt exaustion creeping over her. She laid her head on the pillow and stretched out and was asleep before Julie could say a word.
Julie, not feeling tired took her bible out of her luggage and settled into the soft rocking chair next to the couch to spend time with Him who had brought her this far. Sarah headed down the hall in search of a bedroom she could rest in before dinner.

Julie was startled by a knock on the cabin door. She had dozed off, but for how long she didnt know. She looked around reminding herself where she was. The cozziness of the cabin and its warmth must have lulled her to sleep. As she answered the door she glanced back at the couch where Emily had fallen asleep. She was no longer there. She answered the door to find David and Terry standing there ready to walk them over to the main hall for dinner. " Hang on a minute" she told them as they stepped in side to the warmth of the cabin. " Emily must have gotten up while I was sleeping, she must be in another room." She walked down the hall where there was a bathroom and a bedroom. After checking both rooms she came back out with a look of concern on her face. " Shes not in there either". "Did you check the loft?" "Oh thats probably where she is" she said feeling foolish. She climbed the narrow steps to the loft and looked around. Abeautiful 4 poster bed with more down comforters and pillows greated her with a dresser and mirror on the other wall. She opened a small door that turned out to be the closet. She climbed back down trying not to panic. "Where is she?' "She is not here." Sarah came out of her bedroom. "Who's not here?" she asked.

Rabbi and Brother Aaron have decided to set up round the clock prayer vigils to coincide with their security detail.
"The effectual fervent prayer of the Righteous Avails Much" ...Rabbi proclaimed to the army of God.....Jesus said "my house is to be called a house of prayer"....well that's what we are going to make sure this sanctuary is built upon...."Unless the Lord builds this place our Labor will be in vain"
The Night before Jesus was to be crucified He asked His disciples this question"..The Rabbi continued..."could you not tarry with Me one hour" "what we are asking..as long as you make this sanctuary your safe haven...we are asking NOT requiring...that you stand post one hour in prayer for your fellow brother's and sister's each day" WE believe we have heard from God on this and therefore we are sharing this with you now..so even tonight we can begin to pray accordingly.

He couldnt look at the image any more. If that was him, he didnt know who he was. Come to think of it, he couldnt remember his name. Reaching for paper towels from the dispenser, he ran cold water and began to clean up his head. The throbbing in his temples was making his headache worse. How did he get here? He finished up and pressing a cold wet paper towel on his head emerged from the bathroom. He could see he was in a convienent store. Wow was he thirsty. Walking to the back of the store he reached in the glass door and pulled out a bottled Coke. The dizziness had finally let up and he could walk better now without holding on to anything. As he walked back towards the front he picked up a bag of chips as he headed to the front door. The sun was getting ready to go down but he could still make out a black vehicle parked at the pumps.

Walking down through the rows of cabins Emily explored her new surroundings. She felt safe for the first time in weeks. She wrapped her coat tighter around her as she felt chilled as the evenings in California always dipped down to cooler temps at night. She could hear voices, lots of them. She walked behind the cabins to find herself standing in what looked like a big baseball field. She walked toward the voices and suddenly heard someone shout at her." Hey!, you wanna get yourself killed?' Kevin walked toward her. "Hey, I didnt mean to scare ya, but a lot of us from the compound have turned this area into our shooting range so we could practice with these weapons Brother Aaron gave us and you walked right into the center". Looking behind her she saw all kinds of targets that had been set up. "You are lucky we happened to be re-loading and taking a break." Oh wow, I guess I am. I'm so sorry." she replied. " I'm just glad you're ok." Kevin reached out his hand to shake hers saying,"Hi, I'm Kevin". Kevin had lived in Lakeshore, California all his life. His parents had been the ministers of Lakeshore Baptist Church for all of his 17 years. He knew his parents had been praying hard for him for the last 2 years. He had gotten sick of their preaching at him all the time about one thing or another. He had just been trying to find himself and had gotten in with the wrong kind of kids his age. They had offered him drugs to help him forget about his problems and just live to have a good time, and he had gladly taken them. After he was hooked they wouldnt give him anymore so he had begun to steal money from his parents and then bought what he needed for the day. He hadnt been able to stop, he felt the drugs had even taken over his mind. When his parents started to suspect he was stealing from them they no longer kept any cash on them or in the house. That had made him really mad so he had started taking things he thought they wouldnt notice. Daily he would find a ride to the pawn shop a few miles away and pawned his parents belongings for whatever he could get. Usually he got enough to take care of his addiction for the day. He felt no remorse, he just wanted to feel better and not think about them. The drugs had become his way of escaping. When his Moms cross had come up missing it was then she started to notice other things missing. They had become aware of his drug addiction over time but did not know how to help him. They prayed constantly for him and gave him to Jesus but still things did not improve for their son Kevin. When the cross had come up missing his mom had reached her last straw with him. She feared he would kill himself with the drugs so she had him arrested and thrown in the county jail for a week. She had hoped this would detox him and he would come home and back to being the young man that she had raised. He promised his parents the world when he came home, but it wasnt long after that he was back to the same old pattern. He hated himself so much for what he was doing but he could trust no one to help him stop until the day of the rapture. He had been walking home from one of his so called friends to see what he could sneak out of the house later so he would have money for his fix the next morning. One of the young men from the church who lived a couple blocks away from them drove by and saw Kevin walking. He slowed to a stop and had asked him if he wanted a lift to his house. Kevin feeling the let down from the days drugs told him yes and climbed in, his legs beginning to feel shaky. He would have to steal some of his moms sleeping pills to make it through the night. The young man who picked him up was named Stephen and he was talking to Kevin about the Crusade for Christ that was coming up next month. As they turned the corner of Kevins street the car suddenly went out of control, spinning down toward the ditch on the otherside of the road. Kevin screamed at Stephen to get control of the car, but as he looked over at the drivers seat there was no one there. Only the clothes he had been wearing laying on the seat. Kevin had screamed and yelled, "Oh my God, this cant be happening" The car had careened down the ditch and hit a tree at full speed headon. Only the airbag on Kevins side had deployed and had knocked him unconcious. When he awoke he had no idea how long he had been there. He only knew he was stiff and sore all over. He had climbed out the window and had limped the rest of the way to his house. It was already dark but he could see lights on inside as he entered. He had heard his moms radio playing in the kitchen and hoped beyond hope that he would find both his parents there waiting for him for dinner, but all he found was there clothes on the floor where they had been standing holding each other shoes facing each other.

"Rabbi Rabbi...sorry to interrupt you in prayer....but I have been in deep prayer too" Brother Aaron begins "I just feel a real sinister heaviness right now..not sure what it means ...but I feel an urgency to call a solemn assembly...to gather around as many people to pray as we can" the Rabbi...stood up off his knees and put his hand on Aaron's shoulder "that confirms what I too was just hearing" "a passage from Joel was ringing in my ear" "Blow the trumpet in Zion ...sound the alarm in my holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: For the day of the Lord is coming ...For it is at hand: A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness..like the morning clouds spread over the mountains. A people come, great and strong The likes of whom has never been seen Nor will there ever be any such after them even for many successive generations. A fire devours before them, and behind them a flame burns:" the Rabbi continues "I saw a vision of a man coming and he had a flame with him! "A flame?" Brother Aaron asked..."I know it sounds strange...but I saw a man ...a forerunner of what is to come...and He walked with a flame" "Ok I will gather the people" said Aaron
Eric walks by the computer area and hears a very strange sound...he is no computer whiz himself but knows that sound isn't normal....he quickly darts down to Andy's room......"Andy...Andy...there is a weird noise coming from your computer" Andy startled awake but Instantly becomes wide awake...."A NOISE?" and He jumps up and runs to his computer...slows to a stand still ...almost in shock "this is impossible" what is it Andy..."someone is trying to hack us"..."have they?" Andy sits down and types frantically....checking each level of security....."Oh Jesus ...please give me wisdom" and he types and types..."well have they?" "no but they are close" "what does that mean" "it means they got deep enough to figure out what city we are in" "can you do anything to stop them" "that's what I am working on" "run go tell Rabbi for people to pray"... "And HEY...tell them our security needs to be on HIGH ALERT!"
Eric runs upstairs to where Rabbi and Aaron are already assembling the call to prayer...."Rabbi...Rabbi" "wooooooo what is it son?" "Andy says someone has been trying to hack into our system and they are really getting close and that we need to pray" "I know" "you know already" Eric asks perplexed.."I know the enemy is close and that we need to pray" "how?" "The Lord showed me in prayer" Eric continues ..."well Andy says you need to alert Security to be on Highest alert "we have done that too"
"Wow...Rabbi you are going to have to teach me more about this prayer stuff"
"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 whole army of God hidden away in the compound heads to their knees.....even as evil heads from san francisco to Lakeshore ...seeking someone to devour.

Meanwhile in that dark basement of NWOIHWT leader Natas.....He sits at his computer and posts marching orders day and night....his latest command comes with a reward.
It has come to my mind that as world leaders are arresting new believers..that they are sure to go underground as well. It is my belief they will attempt to install covert communication methods..similar to ours..so I am offering $10,000.00 to any member who is the first to find AND penetrate their network....and another $10,000.00 will follow that if in penetrating their network it leads to the location and murder of just one of those scum sucking bible wacko's.
