Read The Gentile Witness Book II, Elijah Online
Authors: Samuel David
Yona finally looked up during the silence and added “Well I would then suppose” looking over at Elijah “that the last prophecy you stated was that if Israel was attacked that you would then destroy that Country with Gods plague of Locust if I remember correctly.”
“Yes that I did say” Elijah said.
Yona looking very nervous twisting his hands and his eyes darting between Ben, David, Elijah and the speakerphone finally said “Well…Iran attacked us last night didn’t they?” He then looked for affirmation from everyone and he heard affirmation from Michael and the others.
“If then, Elijah’s prophecy, were to occur then would that not be the test of the prophet?”
There was dead silence then David said “Elijah you did prophecy this so will it occur?”
“Yes David it will. You may already note the rain has stopped in Iran. The sun is out and soon the swarms will destroy every green thing within their borders.”
“Michael came back on the line and said, “We still need to vote on it David I will get back to you.”
“When” David asked?
“Give me a minute please” then you could hear the conference phone on their side, put on hold.
David looked over at Elijah and said, “This is the way it works now Elijah, please be patient.”
Elijah just stared at the speakerphone twisting some hair around his fingers and said nothing in return.
The silence continued then the speakerphone clicked and Michael came back on line. Michael said, “David we need to talk to three other committees to get a quorum on this. Give us a couple of hours. I have recorded our conversation here as I usually do and will replay it to those not present once I can get them here. Once we do this hopefully, we will have enough support so I can call for an emergency session of the Kensett. We are hopefully we can get a vote before the day ends...Elijah I am sorry but once again we need to go through our procedures.”
Elijah looked at the speakerphone and said very sternly and with contempt, “You have till sunset. If you deny Adonai, the same prophecy of the Iranians will also befall upon Israel!”
No one spoke. I think they finally believed him. For it was now in their back yard. When it is your yard then the rules change.
After a moment, I asked, “Why we are all together, Elijah do you know anything about this issue in America and the new president Cain?”
Elijah stood and said, “Yes I do. More than you may wish to hear at this time or I am willing to tell you. Now I have said before my main goal right now is the Temple and only the Temple. These other issues we will deal with in time.”
He stood then walked to the door opened it and walked out.

8:00 AM Saturday, Bear News Special Morning Broadcast from Kansas City Missouri
Announcer, “This is Bear News broadcasting live from Kansas City with John Roddenburg. Today, in special two-hour news special we will be covering the news of the day from Coast to Coast and worldwide. Now here is John Roddenburg.”
“Good Morning America. In today’s broadcast we will be covering, the events of the world that since the witnesses arrived this last Monday are in absolute turmoil. We will be covering the oncoming hurricane Alex, the attack on Israel by the Iranians resulting in destroying the dome of the rock, and of course continued coverage of Enoch and Elijah.”
“We also will be covering the death of the Vice President and the resignation of President Stevenson coupled with background on the new president Robert Cain. We also will be covering the upcoming funeral of the Pope and the soon to occur election of his successor.”
“We have correspondents in Egypt, Iraq, Israel, and Iran and also from Houston Texas, Biloxi Mississippi and from the Waldger meetings at Center City here in Kansas City being attended by the New President of the United States himself.”
We have been, notified the new President will be addressing the nation at 10:00 AM this morning. The broadcast will be, covered by all news outlets here and around the world. So stay tuned.
“Yes John we are still reporting from Southern California. We are actually today in East Los Angeles where just like all the rest of the area looks like a war was fought here. Where we are is one of the highest crime areas in Los Angeles. We had a scary situation early this morning and this is the reason we are reporting from here. The Military, and what appears to be, a local gang, have exchanged gunfire. The information we have is there are over thirty casualties. Most of the casualties were Military personnel who it appears were trying to force people to board transports to FEMA camps. From the story we are getting what occurred is the military had rounded up a large group of people and then some of these people started saying they were not going to board the military transport. Then according to sources here the officer in charge of the area, Captain Rodgers we are told came, and accosted a man and his wife. They refused to board the vehicle and the man pulled out a gun during a struggle with the Captain. The man then shot the Captain.”
“From that point forward chaos broke out and within a few seconds all the guardsmen under his command stated shooting. Many of the people in the crowd retuned fire. The result is thirty or more dead and we have no idea how many people wounded. Many were either injured or killed from what we can see here. This isolated incident is a disaster in itself. What we have is the government says do this and the people themselves are saying no and they are fighting back, its anarchy!”
“Is it under control now Brian?”
“Yes I think so John, but I can tell you that the military once they got the crowd under control tied up at least a hundred people using tie wraps. These people were loaded into transports and removed to where we do not know. We also understand they confiscated over two hundred weapons from the crowd!”
“That’s a definite problem Brian.”
“Also the dead are just lying there and so are the wounded. There are no ambulances. There are none available and have not been for some time. This problem is not only here in East L.A. but also the entire area. There are some reservist medics trying to what they can, but there are just too many injuries.”
“So what you are telling me is that right now we have anarchy in that area?”
“Yes John, I never thought I would see this on our soil, the government, and the people fighting in the streets.”
“I agree with you Brian. Any word Brian on the camps and anything else you can add?”
“No, as we have been reporting we are not allowed in the camps and our movement is quite restricted. If it was not that, we were here when the battle here in East Los Angeles occurred we would not have even reported it. We would not have known about it. The Military is quite closed mouth the past day or so. Excuse me a minute John I am being summoned by a Military officer.”
You could see on the screen an officer speaking to Brian, quite animated with hands and head movements. Finally, they stopped speaking and the camera again focused on Brian.
“The officer here has informed us we are to return to the command center in Pasadena immediately and leave this area.”
“Thank you Brian we understand your dilemma. You should as the officer has said return to the command center in Pasadena. We do not want you hurt.”
“We will John. This is Brain Wilcox reporting from East Los Angeles, California.”
“We now will switch to Houston Texas where our correspondent Mari Schroeder is standing by. Maria”
“Yes John the evacuation is in full force here in Houston. I-10 Eastbound is, closed to traffic allowing only a westbound flow. In addition, I-49 South is closed and all lanes leading into Dallas are now open heading north in both directions. Also 290 is only allowing one-way traffic all the way to Austin. It is as you can see behind me bumper to bumper. The Rio Grande Valley is also evacuating. I-37 and 77 are also bumper-to-bumper. Today at NRG stadium, people were arriving to board busses to either San Antonio or Dallas Texas. The stadium holds 77,000 people and its full waiting for additional buses. However, everyone who did board a bus is, most likely headed to either a military base or a FEMA camp. As you know, Hurricane Alex is, expected to make landfall around 5:00 AM Monday morning. Officials here only have a little more than 48 hours to empty the city.”
“Is it orderly Maria?”
“Yes for the most part other than a few incidents. There were a few tempers displayed in the stadium by individuals but overall it seems to be working quite well.”
“Thank you Maria we will get back with to you soon.”
“Thanks John, this is Maria Schroeder reporting live from Houston Texas”
As John turned from the monitor then facing the camera he said, “We will be back with more after this break.”
John knowing he was off camera grabbed a Gatorade and drank it down he then asked Don “What’s next?”
“Well Cairo, Israel then back to US news.”
“Have we heard anything new from Enoch since they left the country last night?”
“Nothing yet John, if we do you will be one of the first to know.”
“Thanks Don, well guess time to get back to it, there is lots of news.”
I sat back down in the anchor chair and the countdown went to zero.
“Welcome back, we have our correspondent Eric Kohl in Cairo Egypt, Eric.”
“Hello John it’s a little past 4:00 PM here. You can see the rain is still coming down. We are broadcasting from Upper Egypt for Cairo is no longer accessible. The entire city is, being, evacuated. You might note we are being told that all correspondents are to leave the country by tomorrow morning.”
“So the rain is causing a lot of problems?”
“Yes and as much as I hate to say it the death toll here along the Nile is extremely high. The government has not released any actual numbers but we know that in Cairo itself there are bodies floating in the streets and canals.”
“Any comments on Martial law there since it was initiated?”
“No John I don’t think it matters for this country is in shambles. I don’t think anyone cares about much of anything but survival.”
“Thanks Eric I know it is hard there. Any idea when you are leaving?”
“Within the hour John, they are only letting us stay here to finish the daily broadcasts.”
“Well please be safe Eric we will talk with you soon.”
“Thank you John, this is Eric Kuhl reporting from Upper Egypt.”
John turned back to the anchor desk then said, “There you have it viewers. The rain has completely shut down Egypt in Northern Africa. We are now going to Bagdad, Iraq where we have been reporting from the Tigris River. Ann Davies normally our correspondent in California has been in Bagdad now for three days.”
John again turned to the screen and said “Ann.”
“Yes John, we are here where the Tigris and the Euphrates meet in Basra Iraq which is near the Kuwait border. Officials here have as other areas of Southeast Asia, The Middle East, and Northern Africa have started complete evacuations of the city. All along both the Tigris and Euphrates people are moving and leaving the river areas.”
“Is the rain bad there Ann?”
“It comes and goes but we are averaging about a quarter inch an hour. I talked to some of the leaders in the area and they have said at this rate the rivers will be two miles wide in twenty-five more days.”
“Their population there is around three and a half million is that correct?”
“Yes John, and also one of Iraq’s main ports. Right now the port is open but it seems that they are planning on closing it maybe as soon as Monday if the rain continues.”
“Any idea where they are transporting people to safety?”
“No we don’t. They are not doing much in evacuating people now. We contacted the government in Bagdad about evacuation plans. We have yet to get any response from our calls. In addition, John we are, being, told, we need to leave this area and return to Bagdad, very similar to the orders coming out of Cairo.”
“I understand Ann. Anything you would like to add?”
“Yes, if there is anyway the rest of the world can help, please open your hearts for these people. Soon hunger and disease will be following these disasters.”
“I agree Ann. Is the Red Cross there or a similar organization?”
“No not at all John.”
“Thanks Ann and we will talk to you later probably in Bagdad right?”
