In Your Name

Part 3: Revelations

April 5, 2030.

"And it cometh to pass, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth of the month, and I in the midst of the Removed by the river Chebar, the heavens have been opened, and I see visions of God."

Ezekiel 1:1

"Truly, Ezekiel's car crash was an eye opener for me. His aunt and uncle were both so dear to my sake as well. I only wish I had prayed for them before my journey. Perhaps the Lord wanted them earlier than they wanted."

I was assigned to inform this church of the Biblical changes.

The higher-ups say that by changing their minds, Messiahs would appear less often.

Who am I kidding when I speculate? I'm just as much in the dark as they are.

"I learned this many a while ago. A good man is always more coveted than a sinner. So don't all be too nice, now."

Ezekiel. He was one of those.. things.

They wanted me to kill him either way.

I thought he did the job for me, but..

He emerged from the hospital. A month ago.

"Now, before going back to the proceedings, I do appreciate whoever took the time to remind me of his death. To leave behind the great amongst the fallen would be a sin in and of itself. Even after a year or so commemorating them. And as you all must know, brothers and sisters, as said in Romans 6. Verse 23.. 'For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.'"

He was asleep for a long time. Four years.

Four years and he hadn't been taken.

I commend him for his resilience.

"Unfortunately, much of the Bible requires revision. Revision from the corruption of history. These revisions require time. Time we all find out eventually we have so little of. Some of our brethren are far from the Truth, despite how high they jump for it. Not many of our brethren are aware of the Lord's oneness. The Holy Trinity is a fraud, just for future reference. The real gift of God is eternal life in His own bosom. That is what we all must look forward to. And to look forward to such a gift begets a sinless mindset. An ascetic mindset. A self-sacrificing mindset. We give up our lives to the Lord. The Lord be with you."

"And with your spirit."

And I envy it as well. I'd trade a night for a lifetime succumbing to it..

We all do in the end. Kneeling. Broken. To that thing.

If only we knew that these religious dunces worshipped a man.

Jesus. Jesus Christ. We can't worship a man to restrain a God.

"Our one and only savior has sent so much just for us to atone for our sins. I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and what I have failed to do, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask all the Angels and Saints, and to you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God."
