Reunion

We arrived back in north Texas late yesterday afternoon. We have found a spot we feel is ideal to settle down in for now. We will not pick a permanent spot until we know what our Lord has in store for us. We have begun to build us a good wooden shelter knowing that the earthquakes are a thing of the past. We have slept in tents so long that it will be strange to sleep in a house on a real bed.
Trigger was the first to notice two figures coming across the field this morning. He took off like a shot running directly toward them. We watched as they greeted and embraced him like old friends. We suspected that it was some of our friends who had been raptured and were now returning to let us know that they were back. Ezra looked somehow younger than I remembered and his wife, Tabitha, was with him. We embraced each other for the longest time. It was so good to see them again. We sat down and talked for hours. They told how they had heard a trumpet sound and a voice and when they all turned to see its source they were instantly standing in the heavens before Jesus. They saw marvelous things too wonderful to tell. They followed Jesus back to the earth and were sent by him to tell us to come to Jerusalem to appear before Him.
We shared with them our story of how that God had watched over us and protected us from harm. There were so many questions we had for them and they patiently answered them all. They said we were to go to the nearest airport and get on a plane which would cost us nothing. The plane would take us to Jerusalem and we would be taken to the Temple to see Jesus. There would be no need for money for all our needs would be taken care of. Tomorrow Ezra and Tabitha will go with us to the airport and they will be picking up others along the way that will go with us.
It seems there are not many humans that survived the Great Tribulation. Had it not been cut short by the Lord's return no one would have survived. It is estimated that the population of the earth, not counting those immortal saints who have returned, is about 500 million. The immortal saints have been sent out by twos to bring everyone to Christ. The “M's” cannot refuse to go. When called they drop everything immediately and follow, without question or argument, the ones sent to lead them to the nearest airport, bus or train station. One of our many questions was how has the public transportation systems been repaired so quickly? How is it possible that there are enough pilots and other transportation personnel available and coordinated to get the job of transporting so many people to Jerusalem done? The answer was obvious. The Lord spoke and everything needed was taken care of. In just 75 days all mortals will be brought before the Lord in Jerusalem for judgment. If the Lord could create the Heavens and the Earth in six days a small thing like this is no problem at all.
We picked up 30 people on our way to the airport. It was a journey of about 15 miles. We waited about an hour for the next plane to arrive and then we boarded without any questions being asked. There was no security, no tickets, no ticket agents and no boarding passes. We just got on the plane and took off. We were fed well by the stewards on the flight and the flight was smooth and quick. There must have been a tremendous tail wind for we arrived in Jerusalem in less than four hours. The view from the air of the battlefield north of Jerusalem was terrifying to look upon. Never in the history of the world have so many died in one place and so suddenly. Jerusalem looks amazing and the new Temple unlike anything ever seen.
Our group of 200 is waiting at the north gate. There is a group in there with Jesus now and we are next. Ezra and Tabitha left our group and vanished as they walked away. They are off to gather others to bring them to Christ. I am terrified and it is only by God's grace I have the strength to stand here.
