"A VERY VIVID DREAM"
Early on the morning of October 1st (about 5:00
to 6:00 AM) I had a very vivid dream. In light of the other three
dreams I recently posted at Five Doves, I believe that this one is important.
No prayer preceded this dream, for I had not asked the Lord for anything
in the way of knowledge or discernment in prayer the day before.
The dream was again very vivid. In the dream I
had just graduated from Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana (actually
now I am 54 years old, so the dream was not about my current time period--I
did, however, graduate from Indiana University back in 1972!). I
decided to take some graduate courses at Purdue University in West Lafayette,
Indiana, and it was the fall semester. I went to the campus, and
tried to find some courses to take, but I could not decide between engineering
courses and medical courses. In fact, I could not decide on any of
the courses offered at all, for none of them seemed "right". I also
tried to find a place to live on campus but was unable to find anything.
I was growing very frustrated in the dream. I then told my parents
that I could not find the right courses at Purdue. Well, time went
by and it was now about a month into the semester (late September), and
the Purdue curriculum people told me that I would have to either decide
on courses at once, or it would be too late and I would have to wait till
the next semester to take courses (January). I then grew very frustrated,
and in the dream I heard myself saying over and over again, "I AM OUT OF
TIME! I AM OUT OF TIME! I AM OUT OF TIME!" I then woke
up.
I cannot help but wonder if the Lord was giving me this
dream relative to his SOON coming! In the third dream that I posted
here at Five Doves just a few days ago, I HAD LEFT HOME, and had arrived
in a very beautiful place with rolling hills that resembled a modern college
campus. The people there told me THAT A PLACE HAD BEEN PREPARED FOR
ME TO LIVE IN, and the view was quite spectacular! I distinctly noticed
in that dream that about half of the leaves had fallen off the trees, and
those that were left were in vivid color. Here in Indiana that would
be around October 15th to 25th. The people were about to take me
to THAT PLACE THAT HAD BEEN PREPARED FOR ME TO LIVE IN, when I woke up.
Well, I still cannot help but wonder if perhaps, yes
perhaps the Rapture is now VERY, VERY SOON. I was also thinking about
a post recently from my friend, Jim Bramlett. He has told us that
if you calculate 2000 biblical years from 33 AD, you land in 2004 AD!
Remember in scripture Hosea 6:2!!!! After 2 days (2000 years), we
would be raised up to spend the 3rd day (1000 years) with the Lord.
Part of the "raising up" is the Rapture of the Church--the dead in Christ
rise first, and then we who are alive and remain (living on the earth)
will also rise to meet the Lord in the air.
