God’s Question on Judgment Day

In my previous postings I have communicated to you about my severe medical condition that landed me in the intensive care unit, dying. There, I left my body and traveled through space and time and entered into the Lake of Fire, the place of the second death. I communicated how I swam in the Lake and of all the horror there. From there I traveled to Hell Itself where I was place before Satin and experience his extreme hatred of me. From there I was taken to the Judgment seat of God and relived all of my sins in an instant in time. Here is my account of what happened there:

The Last Judgment

Now I stand in the Judgment Place blind because of the fog and God asks me the question of the Judgment Place. The question was so profound that, quite frankly, it cut me to the core. It caught me by surprise and left me in a state of disarray. It was direct and to the point and it hit home like a sledgehammer. It is the question that demands an explanation. The question is simply: “Why should you live?”

But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written: “As I live, says the LORD, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. (Romans 14:10 – 12)

At first, I was enamored by the voice because somehow there was an attraction that pulled you toward it. it was so perfect in every way. The voice was mellow and soothing, as love seemed to come from it. It was confident but not overly so. The voice was strong but not over bearing. It demonstrated perfect tempo being neither too slow nor too fast. The volume was perfect as well, being neither too loud nor too soft and enunciation and pronunciation were perfect as well.

At the same time, the voice conveyed a very real sense of caring and concern. Amazingly, the voice communicated all of these things by speaking only four words. Think about this, how could this be possible by asking a simple question?

There was no sense of anger in the voice. No inflection to reveal the acceptable response. Since the fog kept me from seeing the source of the voice, there was no opportunity to read body language or facial expression.

Eventually, I got over being intrigued with the voice as the ramifications of the question started to overwhelm me. I realized that this was a serious situation and I knew that my answer would determine my fate forevermore.

I thought: here I am being judged for all eternity. If I am being asked a question, there must be a right answer that can make a difference. Frantically, I started to think up excuses to rationalize my poor decisions and behavior.

The Last Judgment by Michelangelo

While I was doing this, another truth rocked me. It came to me from out of the blue. There were no lies here in this place, only truth existed. Even for someone like me, lies did not exist here because the one who asked the question already knew the truth.

In my next posting I will reveal the insights that came to be as I pondered my dilemma. I started to put things together and realized how great the consequences were of my answer.

Until then: May all of God’s blessings be upon you and your family.

Reliving My Sins Before the Judgment Seat of Christ

But then things changed. Standing there I began to experience certain portions of my life over again. It was as if I was actually living them over again. One after another they continued. It was as if I had been receiving electronic signals that enabled me to fully experience these seemingly random snippets of my life. I was reliving them with all of my emotions and senses fully activated; but then I realized that it was even more than that! I was also experiencing the thoughts, perceptions and emotions of the other people in these experiences as well. More specifically, I experienced how others were affected by my actions and choices. One by one, I was gaining insight into how my actions harmed others. I gained an intimate perspective of the people involved and how they felt about me.

Reliving these experiences was far superior to having lived them the first time because everything was so clear. All of this occurred without a sense of time as well. Instead of taking hours, days, months, or years to transpire, my life episodes were relived in an instant.

Then suddenly, all of this stopped just as quickly as it had started. The peace and quiet returned. I stood there thinking about what had just happened when the silence was interrupted by a voice that came through the fog. It was the voice of God.

He had a critical question for me. Find out what it was in my next posting on my Judgment Day experiences.

Until then, may all of God’s blessings be upon you and you family.

Read my amazing true life story about how the forces of good and evil battle for my life and the vision that God has given me. My book, “Possess the Vision,” communicates my supernatural experiences and as a result, provides insight into the realm of the spiritual warfare that is raging for our souls and our purpose.

JUDGMENT DAY

In my previous postings I have communicated to you about my severe medical condition that landed me in the intensive care unit, dying. There, I left my body and traveled through space and time and entered into the Lake of Fire, the place of the second death. I communicated how I swam in the Lake and of all the horror there. From there I traveled to Hell Itself where I am brought before Satin and experience his extreme hatred of me. Now I travel to the Judgment seat of God. Here is my account of what happened there:

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. (2 Corinthians 5:10)

The Last Judgment by Rogier Van Der Weyden

In the same way that I had been mysteriously taken from the Lake of Fire, I simply vanished from before the beast. I had been removed from the halls of hell.

I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. (Revelation 1:18)

Mysteriously, I was transported to a broad place, a place of peace.

He also brought me out into a broad place; He delivered me because He delighted in me. (Psalm 18:19)

It was as if I was on the inside a cloud but without the misty dampness. Everything around me was gray. My visibility was severely limited like it would be if I were in a thick fog. I looked around and saw nothing except the wall of grayness that engulfed me. I wondered about all these experiences. I felt fortunate to be in a place as peaceful and calming as this.

I have blotted out, like a thick cloud, your transgressions, and like a cloud, your sins. Return to Me, for I have redeemed you. (Isaiah 44:22)

But everything was about to change. I was going to relive all of my sins in excruciating detail. The Judgment is about to begin. I will tell you all about it in my next posting.

The Last Judgment by Michelangelo

Until then, may God’s blessings be upon you.

INSIDE THE LAKE OF FIRE – THE SECOND DEATH

INSIDE THE LAKE OF FIRE – THE SECOND DEATH

olgotha, the Skull. In this posting, I communicated that I had been struck with a sudden life-threatening pancreas disorder that sent me to an intensive care unit. After the doctors did all they could that night, they left, believing that I would not likely make it to the morning. As I slowly drifted toward unconsciousness, I left my body behind. I traveled through space and time on a course toward an enormous human skull (Spiritual Golgotha) suspended in space. You can find this posting here: MY JOURNEY TO SPIRITUAL GOLGOTHA

SWIMMING IN THE LAKE OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE

I soon found myself swimming with countless lost souls in a phosphorescent yellow-orange plasma, delivering scorching heat and immense pressure. These conditions must be like the sun’s fusion reaction, where extreme heat and pressure result from the massive gravitational forces. The heat seared me, and the pressure painfully squeezed me into a rage.   The souls swimming in the lake with me resembled white tadpoles. Together, we darted to and fro, attempting to escape the stinging heat and the crushing weight of the plasma. Each soul also relived the horror, sorrow, pain, and misery of those they hurt. Over and over again, everyone there experienced the feelings their victims experienced from their actions.

The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of death confronted me. (Psalm 18:5)

Even worse, the feelings of every victim are transmitted into the plasma and received by every soul there. Accordingly, every soul relived the cumulative sorrow of every other soul’s victims. Thus, there is a threefold effect of the plasma. There is the heat, the pressure, and thirdly, the continual reliving of the horrors inflicted upon the world. All these drove us into a frenzy, and we darted back and forth, frantically searching for a way out. Like pollywogs being heated in a chemistry beaker, dashing back and forth, seeking escape without hope or rest, exploring continually for relief without end, howling in despair.
Psalm 18:4-5 – New King James Version

The pangs of death surrounded me, and the floods of ungodliness made me afraid. 5 The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me; The snares of death confronted me.

While I believed there was no escape from the Lake of Fire and Brimstone, despite this belief, I was instantly relocated to a large, searing, hot cave. Read my next posting as I face Satan in the depths of Hell. You can find it here: IN HELL – CONFRONTED BY THE DEVIL. I have added some reference material below to help you understand my experience better.

What is Spiritual Golgotha?

Golgotha, which translates as the place of the Skull, has been used to identify the place where Jesus Christ was crucified. Here is a scripture that supports this notion.
Matthew 27:33-35 – New King James Version

33 And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull, 34 they gave Him sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink. 35 Then they crucified Him and divided His garments, casting lots…

The Crucifixion of Jesus
In the spiritual realm, Golgotha contains the Lake of Fire, the place of the second death. What is the Lake of Fire and Brimstone? It is the pace of the second death. Here is a scripture that identifies what this is.
Revelation 21:6-8 – New King James Version

6 And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. 7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. 8 But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

In my prior posting, I communicated that I had been struck with a life-threatening pancreas disorder that sent me to an intensive care unit. After the doctors did all they could, they left, believing that I would likely not make it through the night. As I drifted toward unconsciousness, I left my body. I traveled through space and time on a course toward an enormous human skull (Spiritual Golgotha) suspended in space. The rest of the story follows:

The pangs of death surrounded me, and the floods of ungodliness made me afraid. (Psalm 18:4)

I passed through the skull’s open eye socket and entered the Lake of Fire and Brimstone, the place of the second death. 

And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death. (Revelation 21:6 – 8)

I swam in the lake’s luminous yellow-orange plasma and bore its excruciating heat and immense pressure. These conditions must be like the sun’s fusion reaction, where extreme heat and pressure result from the massive gravitational forces. The heat scorched me, and the pressure squeezed everything out of me.   Innumerable souls were swimming there with me, white in color and in the general shape of tadpoles. They voyaged through this hot, orange ooze, wailing in agony on a journey that had no end.  In addition to these tortures, each soul was in an everlasting state of agonizing over their sins, reliving, over and over, the harm and pain they had caused others. They also relived the emotions of remorse, guilt, anger, hatred, and fear that their victims felt due to their actions perpetually. 

The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of death confronted me. (Psalm 18:5)

But even worse, the plasma provided still more misery. The wailing and emotions of each soul there were transmitted into the plasma and were received by every other soul there. Unbelievably, every soul simultaneously experienced the pain and remorse that every other soul experienced. The compounded effect of these conditions was overwhelming. Still, they had no choice but to exist in this continual torment that drove them into raging madness. Therefore, they darted back and forth like pollywogs in a beaker placed over a flaming Bunsen burner. Desperate for escape but without hope or rest, they scoured continuously, seeking an escape that did not exist.

A JOURNEY TO GOLGOTHA

Filed under: Possess the Vision, Spirituality, spirtual warfare, The Lake of Fire — 16 Comments

The Morning Star Rising on the First Day

Read my story by ordering my book, “Possess the Vision”

A JOURNEY TO GOLGOTHA

In my prior postings I have told you about a severe medical condition that resulted in my admittance to an intensive care unit with a life threatening pancreases problem. It was there that I left my body behind and traveled through space and time, having not idea where I was going. This posting is the continuation of this story.

I continued to look around as I traveled through space and time. I noticed that there was a slightly larger object than the rest in the stars ahead. As I approached this object I noticed that its shape was different as well. It was not spherical like the stars, but I could not as yet make out its shape.

Suddenly, a strange and repulsive odor arrived. It was faint at first, and I found myself sniffing in an effort to identify what it was. Then, the awful odor hit me full strength like a wave crashing onto the shore. Its stench overwhelmed and choked me. It was then that I realized that odor was decaying human flesh. The smell of death was making me sick.

Then I started to hear sounds again. They also were faded at first and seemed almost melodic. I tried to identify the sounds were but could not. However, I noticed that they seemed to be getting louder as I approached the strange object before me. Then suddenly, a chill ran through me as I recognized the sound. It was the sound of a mass of people wailing in torment and agony. It was the sound of thousands or perhaps millions of souls simultaneously crying out in pain and despair. It was the perpetual song of torment that invaded me. It evoked in me a very depressing and gut wrenching feeling of agony and despair.

I looked up again to check my heading. I could see that I was still moving rapidly toward the now larger, white object in space. I also noticed that my s-curves were seemingly larger as I approached. One thing was certain now—I was heading directly toward this thing, what ever it was.

I soon realized that both the putrid odor and wailing sounds were coming from it. I continued watching the object as I meandered through space. The image grew larger until I saw what I wished that I did not. It was a gigantic, degenerated human skull floating in space without a body.

Skull_by_JKrushal

Skull_by_JKrushal

The cranium still contained bits of flesh and hair in various places. But, in general, it was seriously deteriorated and decayed. Parts of the face had no skin but revealed the underlying muscle and ligaments. In other areas of the face, the muscle and ligaments were gone and revealed the bony structure of the skull. The jaw area had completely deteriorated and exposed the teeth and jawbones that seemed to project an evil smirk. The right eye was missing; it was from here that the sounds and the stench escaped. These awful things were coming from deep inside the skull.

I continued moving closer to the skull of death and as I did, I was amazed at its enormous size. Still traversing in sine wave pattern, the ship’s movement from side to side now took me from one edge of the skull to the other. Soon afterward, all I could see before me was the skull and yet my momentum continued to carry me forward in an obvious collision course. I saw the skull grow in size as I rapidly approached. It was then that I knew just how small and insignificant I was.

I approached even closer until all I could see was the open eye socket before me as I slithered my way toward this “place of the skull” or Golgotha.

John 19:16 – 18 Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led Him away. And He, bearing His cross, went out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha, here they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center.

I continued forward, entering the open eye socket and watching as it engulfed me. I got a close up view of the remnants of ligaments and tissues inside the eye socket.

And yet I continued steadily forward, moving now into total darkness. Even in complete obscurity I continued on until I entered through an open passageway that I could not see. For now my journey was over. I wondered what might lie ahead.

So my journey into the spiritual realm had begun. My travels took me to the place of spiritual death. The spiritual equivalent of Golgotha, or the place of the skull, the place they killed Jesus. The journey was not over however. I had just entered the passage way to the Lake of Fire, which has been described as the second death in the book of Revelation. Our next posting will cover my experiences there in detail.

Until then, may Gods blessings be upon you.

Entering the Spiritual Realm of Death

Filed under: Possess the Vision, Spirituality, spirtual warfare — 13 Comments

The Morning Star Rising on the First Day

 Read my story by ordering my book, “Possess the Vision”  

Entering the Spiritual Realm of Death

 In my prior posting I told you about sever stomach pains that resulted in a trip to the emergency room and ultimately to the intensive care unit. The diagnosis was a life threatening pancreases problem. There is nothing the doctors can do except provide me with pain medicine and hope I pull through. They tell my family that I will unlikely make it through the night.

 

Unaware of this information, I lay in a bed wondering what will come of all of this. The nurse turns off the light which means that their work for the day has been done. I dose off and then separate from my body to enter the spiritual realm (also see The-Day-Everything-Changed).

 

I found myself sitting with my legs crossed, sitting on an invisible surface, seemingly suspended in space. I knew that the invisible surface was there because I could feel it underneath me. I also knew that there was a transparent dome covering me, although I can not explain how I knew that. The dome allowed me to see in every direction while, at the same time, protecting me like the windows in a car. This craft seemed to me to be something akin to a one passenger space ship. So, there I sat floating in the blackness of space with the lights of billions of stars all around me.

 

It was then that I realized that I was about to travel through space and time. Once again I have no idea how I know this. It is like a thought has been inserted into my brain.

 

The next thing that I noticed was the initial sensation of movement. Progress was slow at first but gradually accelerated into the vastness.

 

I then started to hear the voices of people and conversations, or portions of them. One spoken fragment would be followed immediately by another as I traveled past them. The sensation would be like one driving a car past a long line of people who were all engaged in dialog. It was as if I was passing miles and miles of talking people.

 

As I accelerated, the words came more rapidly, were higher pitched and less recognizable. Eventually, there were only a few words that I could recognize, and they soon turned into unrecognizable bleeps. I felt that I was traveling through the lives of others and listening in on their conversations. As the acceleration continued, and the voices became just blips—short pluses of sound like Morse code, eventually turning into the squelching sound made on an older radio when you turn the dial very rapidly across an entire range of stations.

 

The ship was moving through time. Once again, for some reason I knew that I was passing the fleeting voices of future conversations in my life. They were sounds of a future that I was not likely to have. Suddenly these sounds just stopped and total silence returned. I thought, based on the duration of the voices, that I would have had a very long life.

 

I then attempted to identify my location. At first, all I could see were the stars and the blackness of space all around me. Then I noticed that I was not traveling in a straight line through space as I had thought. Rather, I was weaving back and forth like the s-shaped curves a snake makes as it moves forward. I would first veer to the left, curve around to the original direction and then swing way back to the right before initiating the cycle all over again. Back and forth I went even though I maintained one true heading forward. I was traveling through space in the path of a sine wave, weaving back and fourth but still progressing forward in a straight line.

 

I would soon find out that my destination was Golgotha, the place of the skull (dead). I will tell you all about this in my next posting.

Read the truly amazing life story about how the forces of good and evil battle over a man and the vision that God gives him. Joseph W. Gordon’s Possess the Vision (Xulon Press, $12.95, 140 pages, ISBN 1-59781-205-6) tells about the mysterious spiritual experiences that occur throughout his lifetime.

THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT AND THE INITIAL PROGNOSIS

Filed under: Spirituality, spirtual warfare — 16 Comments
August 25, 2010

A VISION OF A JESUS-FILLED WORLD COMING TO PASS

The Morning Star Rising on the First Day

THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT AND THE INITIAL PROGNOSIS

In my prior posting (MY DAY OF DEATH,) I communicated how a spiritual attack sent me to an emergency room (ER), fighting for my life in a spiritual war that would continue for almost three months in the hospital and beyond.

This message will convey what happened that first day in the ER and disclose the rarity of my affliction and my slim chance of survival. It will also provide a foundation for future postings that tell of the spiritual warfare that continues in the spiritual (non-Earthly) realm, which is available via the following links:

The First Day in the Emergency Room

I eventually arrived at the ER parking lot after a long drive from home; I exited the car and meandered toward the door, unable to stand fully upright while clutching my stomach in a great deal of pain. I proceeded to the admissions window, being very sick and understandably irritable, demanding immediate attention. Unfazed, the nurse at the window handed me several forms to fill out and requested proof of insurance. Looking at all the paperwork, I wondered if I would get the treatment I needed in time. I gave the nurse my insurance card and started filling out the forms when I began to sense that I would have to vomit again and then quickly bolted for the restroom, leaving all the paperwork behind.

I entered the men’s room, still thinking that I had food poisoning and that all I needed was a quick stomach pump, and I would be back on my way. On the other hand, I thought that with all the vomiting I had already done, I had to acknowledge that I should be getting better by now, but this was certainly not the case. I now sensed that I could be acutely ill.

Exiting the men’s room, I found an ER nurse waiting for me with a wheelchair, who took me to an examination room.

A man who looked like a high school student soon entered the examining room. I thought to myself, surely this can not be my doctor. As it turned out, he was the intern on duty and, yes, the doctor who would perform the preliminary examination.

He inspected my stomach and had the nurse take blood samples. As I waited for the assessment of these tests, my pain steadily worsened. The young doctor returned in an hour, stating that he had arrived at a very rare determination. As a result, he requested a second opinion from the senior doctor on duty.

Thirty minutes later, the senior doctor reexamined me. After checking all the data, he informed me that he concurred with the young doctor’s diagnosis. However, because of the diagnosis’s rarity, he would also require verification by the hospital’s lead doctor.

I wondered why this was necessary and asked about the diagnosis, but they refused to disclose anything. Suddenly, things were getting a bit scary. What could be so bad that it needed this level of attention?

So the head doctor arrived an hour later. He also reexamined me, and then, after a lot of deliberation, they all agreed that I was suffering from a malfunctioning pancreas. They had a nurse move me into an intensive care unit, but by that time, the pain had spread throughout my entire body. I had pain inside and on the surface of my body as well. It was everywhere, and it felt like I had needles and pins puncturing every square millimeter of my body, inside and out. The pain was so great that certain parts of my body were now going numb. They administered morphine for the pain, but the initial doses proved ineffective, and neither were the additional doses they provided. So, they connected me to my own personal morphine injector machine that gave me the ability to regulate my medication level within tolerances. When the pain would start to get nasty, all I had to do was push a button at the side of my bed, and another dose of morphine would be injected into my body through a catheter in my arm.

Interestingly, the morphine never totally made the pain go away. It just got me to a point mentally where I did not care about the pain anymore. So, for example, at one point in time when my stomach started to hurt again, I remember thinking oh well, so what!

My immediate family came to the hospital to visit and check on my condition. Although I did not know it at the time, the doctors had already advised them to contact any faraway relatives who may want to see me one last time because they believed I might not even live through the night.

The physicians did not tell me then that they had done all they could, that there was no medical treatment for the pancreas-related problem I had. As it turned out, all they could do was keep me from eating food and hope I would pull through.

The last thing I recall in the ICU that night was the nurse closing the curtains on my small cube and turning out the lights as she left. After lying there for a while, staring at the ceiling and wondering what my outcome would be, I became groggy and drifted off to sleep.

I did not know it at the time, but I would soon find out that the devil had me right where he wanted me, sick, in pain, and near death. I was about to pass over to the other side, into the truth of the spiritual world where I would experience its horrors and find its mercy. The continuation of this saga continues here: LEAVING MY BODY.

The Initial Attack

The Morning Star Rising on the First Day

The Initial Attack

In our previous posting, we introduced our new section on spiritual warfare. More specifically, it will introduce the subject by revealing my personal experiences over almost ten years. In today’s posting, I will open by sharing an unexpected and brutal spiritual attack that occurred at a time in my life when I did not even know that I was in a spiritual battle.

The body of Christ – On Earth as it is Heaven

The day that this event occurred began as a day of expectation. I was scheduled to go to a rock concert with friends, and we were all excited about it. However, this excitement was dampened by my low energy level. I was strangely tired that day, just like I had been, off and on, for several months. This condition would be very uncharacteristic of my ordinarily high-energy self. I had also noticed that after dinner each day, my face would flush red, and my temperature would rise. In addition, I gained about thirty pounds over the previous six months. I was very concerned about these conditions and went to the doctor to check it out, but despite performing all sorts of tests, they found nothing wrong with me.

On the evening of the concert, I met my friends at a restaurant for dinner and drinks. I was not hungry, but I had Mexican food anyway for some reason. The after-effect of the combination of spicy food and beer made me feel bad. It gave me a heavy feeling in my stomach. We left the restaurant and walked across the street to the concert hall. The concert was excellent. We had fantastic seats, and the music and performance were the best I had ever experienced. Yet, I wasn’t in tune with the good time everyone else was having. I was getting very sick to my stomach. I tried to delay the inevitable but eventually had to leave my seat to go to the restroom to vomit. As I returned to my seat, I remember thinking the Mexican food may have been bad. My condition did not get better throughout the evening as I had to leave several more times for the restroom. When the concert ended, my friends wanted to go out for drinks. Still, by this time, I had started to develop very sharp abdominal pains, so I uncharacteristically declined their invitation and drove home instead. 

It was a thirty-minute drive home, and by that time, the abdominal pain had become extreme. In fact, it was so bad that I could not even stand up straight when I exited the car. The best that I could do was to lean substantially forward at the waist to minimize the pain. My family doctor was called, and he recommended driving to the hospital emergency room immediately. Ironically, the trip to the hospital took me back within a block or so of the concert hall I had left just an hour or so before.

The initial spiritual warfare attack had been conducted, and the result was that I was its casualty. Of course, it is not apparent at this point in time that my condition was the result of a spiritual attack. Still, this connection will become evident in my future postings. At this point, the battle has just started, and as you will soon find out, I will be attacked repeatedly in the days, weeks, and months ahead. Our next posting will address what happens in the emergency room and my initial prognosis. 

 

Until then, God bless.

Twilight Zone Realities

The Morning Star Rising on the First Day

In a previous posting (Possess-the-Vision) I communicated that I was going to present a number of spiritual experiences of my life that led to the creation of the Possess the Vision Mission Statement (PTV Mission-Statement.) This is one of them.

When I entered high school I started lifting weights with my friend Kenny. He had a really good set of weights in his basement and I worked out three to four afternoons a week at his house to get into shape.

We liked to talk about things that can not be explained by our physical science. Things like ESP for example. In particular, we loved to talk about the unexplained things that we watched on the television program called, “The Twilight Zone.” We marveled that these incredible stories were touted as renditions of real life experiences. We were fascinated with ESP and wondered how in the heck someone could know of things that were to come in the future.


One day after our workout we thought that it would be great fun to test our own ESP abilities. Our plan was to test our skills by predicting cards that were pulled from a deck of cards at random. So we tested ourselves and determined that I was quite good at predicting the cards that Kenny pulled from the deck. We kept statistics on the number of correct and incorrect answers and the results were that I had a significantly higher prediction rate (about 50%) than could be explained by simple probability rates (about 4%).

So not being satisfied with this, thinking that perhaps this was just some form of luck, we decided to make our tests more difficult. We were using a Pinochle deck, which contains twenty four unique cards in a deck of forty-eight. This meant that each card in the deck had a twin. So for example, there are identical Kings of Clubs and so on.

So, the plan was that Kenny would cut the deck of cards and keep the entire set that he cut in front of him on the table. I would then also cut the deck from the remaining cards, trying to cut the only card that would match the card at the bottom of Kenny’s set. Remarkably, on the very first try we both cut the exact same card. To say the least, this was a very exciting experience. I felt that we had demonstrated a strong connection here.

We did the same thing three more times and wound up cutting matching cards two of the three times. This was remarkable. I remember my heart beating inside my chest as we continued to cut matching cards. I could also see that my friend was getting a little spooked as well. Our success was actually starting to scare us. It was then that my friend proclaimed that we would do the same thing once again, except this time we would call out the card that we would both cut in advance. I said, “Okay, let’s cut the Queen of Spades.” He cut the cards first and kept them face down on the table directly in front of him. Then I cut from the remaining cards and did likewise. Subsequently, we both turned over our cards at the same time. They were both the Queen of Spades. I remember getting an energy spike in my heart that started my chest pounding. My friend was so spooked by what happened that he got up from the table. He was very keyed up, and he proclaimed that he would never again fool around with ESP. He walked toward the entrance to the living room holding his chest, then turned and called me a freak. He turned again and entered the living room. Dismayed, I took that as an invitation to leave, and I did.


I did not see Kenny much after that. I would come to his house to work out at our regular times but he would not be there. The fact was that Kenney did not want to be my friend anymore. I guess that it is one thing to be fascinated by the thought of ESP experiences and quite another to actually experience them.

Of course, all of this leads us back to the question: “How is all of this Possible?” Based upon my own experiences, I believe that there is a spiritual realm that we can tap into because we are in fact all spiritual creatures encapsulated in physical bodies. When we tap into the spiritual realm we can often see the future because there is no time there.

I believe in God and believe that God has certainly communicated too many people in an effort to deliver His message to the rest of us. Certainly, many of these messages were delivered in the spiritual realm. How else can you explain Jean Dixons warnings to JFK prior to the assassination?  Or even my own JFK experience that I conveyed in “The-Day-Everything-Changed,” posting? These occurrences are not all that rare, although most people decline to talk about them much because of the backlash. The messages come from the spiritual realm in which God exists. They come to help us by warning us of danger or redirecting our path (see Premonition-of-an-Automobile-Accident and My-Encounter-with-a-Brick-Wall.)

So why does it work for seemingly trivial things like predicting a card to be cut from a deck? I’m not sure. One thing I do know is that just like many of my other experiences my path was changed that day. I lost a friend and my life was changed as a result. Was this for my protection? I can’t say. My message to you is to pay attention to the messages that come your way. Seek them out. Pray to be enlightened in the things of God.

The Morning Star Rising on the First Day

To the one who has long waited for the promise of God

and waits day after day, year after year.

Are you concerned or growing doubtfull

That His promise may not come?

Have your prayers fallen on deaf ears

and does heaven seem so far away?

Is your hope fading? Then I say believe – believe beyond what you see.

The promise will surely come, sometime, someway, somewhere.
