The Gentile Witness Book II, Elijah (35 page)

“Yes John we hope so. This is Ann Davies reporting live from Basra, Iraq.”

John turned from the screen, and then turned to Chester Nichols their Meteorologist. 

“Chester, do you have anything to add to any of what we are seeing and hearing?” 

Chester moved to the weather Monitor and a map of the Middle East and Northern Africa came up with the radar superimposed on the map. 

“As you can see John the rain just keeps coming and strange patterns too. In addition, you might note that even though Iran is, surrounded by falling rain they are completely clear. There is absolutely no explanation for any of this. I have talked to other meteorologist and they have said that this is impossible.” 

“Yes I agree and there are a lot of things right now that are deemed impossible. Chester, what updates do you have on Hurricane Alex and the other ones following.”

The map changed and the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean came up and Hurricane Alex, was superimposed over the map. 

“You may remember hurricane Katrina John but this thing is even bigger. The eye right now has just left Cuba and headed almost due west. It covers an astounding four-hundred and fifty miles of water and land. It already is raining in Houston, Galveston, and Corpus Christi but not hard yet. Winds are close to Enoch’s predictions near the center. Current models state his predictions are, expected to meet or exceed his exact prediction. The Gulf is already starting to encroach on the coast. We are looking at a storm surge from Padre Island to Lake Charles in Louisiana of maybe twelve to fifteen feet.”

“So would you say this hurricane will be the worst one ever in the Gulf?”

“Absolutely John! In addition, this system is moving very slowly. When Alex hits it will stay for quite a while. This means as the remains creep up the Ohio Valley this will result in serious flooding.”

“Anything else to add Chester?”

“Yes John the other prediction of Enoch was the increased temperature at the poles. This has held steady at plus twelve degrees above normal for both North and South poles. We are seeing rapid melt of some of the outer shelves of Ice, especially in the lower areas of Antarctica. If this keeps up some of our oceans could rise as much as a foot or more within a year if not less. This will also cause major flooding in coastal areas.”

“The other Hurricanes Chester?” 

“So far we are tracking four of them. According to the National Hurricane Center Bosner is shaping to be as fierce as Alex is. Current computer models have Bosner tracking all areas from New Orleans to Mobile Alabama, with the center tracking to Biloxi.”

“What you are saying then is Enoch is right so far?”

“Yes John, unfortunately he’s is absolutely one-hundred percent right.”

“The camera then moved back to John and he said, “I can only warn you to prepare accordingly if you are in one of the areas predicted by Enoch. We can refer you to our website where we have set up some helpful tools based on his predictions of when and where they are to occur. I suggest that you take advantage of this tool. If you are in an evacuation area please do so for these storms are Biblical!”

“Now” John said, “Since we don’t have Enoch or Elijah here with us to comment on these storms. We do have the Reverend Thomas with us today.” John turned to his left and the cameras captured both of them.

“Reverend Thomas what is you take on the news and these storms.”

“In my opinion John God is a bit angry not only with America but also the world. The last time he was this angry he destroyed all but a few. As far as America being in his focus, look at what we have done recently as a government. Especially at the Federal level, with Judges whose rulings usually went against the peoples wishes. It reminds me of the movie the Ten Commandments when the Pharaoh in anger said that the name Moses was to be, removed from every building, obelisk, and statue and so on. Well the Federal Government and their Judges did the same thing with the name of God and the name of Jesus. Even the Ten Commandments in front of a courthouse they removed, and so on. They ruled to allow unnatural practices in the name of rights, and allowed and paid for abortions. So now, he is showing his anger. Unfortunately, John I believe before it is all over it will get worse. The good news though is that Jesus is coming soon and then this will all be over. Sin will be gone; Lucifer and his followers will be bound and Jesus will then establish his long awaited kingdom.”

“That is a lot to consider Reverend. I have on my right one of the non-believers who is a self-proclaimed Atheist and has written several books about god is dead.” John Turned to the other guest on his right and said “George what is you take on this?”

“Well I grew up in Iowa and what I just heard the Reverend say, and have been hearing is absolute hogwash. That is what we call stories that are just well…not true or stories shysters tell. The truth of the matter is simple. Mother Nature because of global warming is having a hemorrhage and humanity is paying the price for that. It is as simple as that. It will come and then it will go. All this God stuff will then be laughed at like it has been over and over again in the history of mankind.”

“What of the predictions of Enoch George? They are uncannily accurate. It appears many find what Enoch did to be difficult for a man, or anyone to do if not impossible.”

“Predictions are not unusual John. Right now, this Enoch has been lucky. He will soon fail then you will see that he is a charlatan. It is just a matter of time. You see John, there is no God, and there are no prophets. There is only life, death, and taxes. Enjoy what you have now and let this as supernatural hocus-pocus be what it is. Hog wash.”

“Thank you George for your views.”

John turned back to the camera and said, “Stay tuned we have a lot more to show you and tell you. We will be right back.” 

John stood and walked over to a snack table grabbed a bottled water. Everyone left him alone for they all knew the wheels were turning. This was only a hundred and fifty second break so he had to get back on the desk. 

Don came over handed him some papers and said, “Next we will cover the Vice Presidents death then the Popes. That will bring us up close to the new Presidents inaugural speech at 8:00 AM. We will use Mary Ann and Geraldo for the Israel and the Iran crisis at the Mount. Also, what Elijah is doing there? I need you to focus on reporting about the new President and what we know about him after his speech.”

“Thanks Don, I need a break. The Atheist rather rubbed me the wrong way. He does not look at reality but then many of them don’t do they?”

“No they don’t John, no they don’t. I have to go, the show must go on.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 71

9:15 AM Saturday, Aafre Waldger’s suite, Center City, Kansas City Missouri

Last night Aafre’s assistants had removed the Judge from the floor and put her into one of the bedrooms for the time being. They used their own resources they could control before making the death public. Once assured they had the right persons to cover this up the police were called in. Once the Coroner had removed the body, which would be immediately cremated Aafre had told me, “Matthew I need this room cleaned up for it smells. We need it ready for tomorrow.” 

I called on some resources I had and found a crew to sterilize the room after I had met with the police and the Constable when they came to get the body. 

Originally, Cain was to make a speech right after the swearing in but it was, decided they would defer the Presidents message until the next morning. This way, press releases could be, sent out when it would occur. Most Americans especially on a Saturday morning would be tuning into hear the new President’s speech. Unfortunately, though to Aafre’s dismay, per federal laws all networks would carry the speech. Therefore, the Network had to produce the feed to everyone including Bear. That would change in the future Aafre had said.  

In the meantime, I met the Network crew at 6:30 AM and they set up more equipment than they had last night for the swearing in. They set up a superimposed picture of the White House in the background and the Presidential Seal on a new desk that was, brought in. This would be Cain’s introduction to America as their new President. 

At 9:30, Aafre showed up along with Cain, and then Jamal. Robert Jordan came in a few minutes after and they all huddled over in a corner drinking coffee and going over some papers I assumed were Cain’s speech. 

At 9:55, the lights came on then the countdown started. The Networks hidden announcer said, “Ladies and gentlemen of the United States and the World this is a special report following the inauguration of Robert Cain as President of the United States. Our new President has in lieu of the issues facing not only the United States but the world has decided to speak to you this morning about the issues at hand.” 

The live performance was on a 4-minute delay so the feed actually started to all the other networks at 10:00 AM.   

The Special Report Graphic then faded away and President Robert Cain was, shown from the top of the desk up, He was sitting with both hands folded together on the desk looking directly into the camera. What the viewers saw was very unlike his predecessor. He was a Democrat not a Republican and had caused much discomfort to the previous administration. He was, described as six foot two inches with a full head of blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, olive skin color, and about 180 pounds with little or no body fat. He was 46 years old and he was not married. 

Early in his career he had immediately became a force to be, reckoned with in American Politics. Since being, elected, and representing the 14
th
District in New York his popularity in the House continued to rise. He was now in his third term. He was, elected speaker after the last national Elections. 

His mother died at birth in New York City and his father with various nannies’ raised him during his early years. His father has dual Citizenship with Great Britain and the United States. He is a philanthropist, and resides on an estate in rural England. We know very little about him. 

Robert Cain was educated in private boarding schools on the East Coast. He then attended Princeton then off to England attending Oxford for graduate studies. He returned to Harvard Law School where he graduated at the top of his class. He was, admitted to the New York Bar, right after graduation. He then worked, several years for the New York, District Attorney’s, office. He then turned to politics and won the election in his first campaign for public office. He continued to ascend the rungs of power and as Speaker was a powerful presence. 

The Network producer got everyone’s attention and the countdown started. 

Robert blinked as the red light came on the main camera. Looking directly into the camera with no papers in front of him or a teleprompter began speaking. 

“Today is a very difficult day in not only America but also the world. Today for the first time ever the Speaker of the House has taken the office of the Presidency of the United States due to some very unfortunate circumstances. We all know about the unfortunate accident involving the late Vice President. Therefore, as my first order of business I send my sympathy and express my sorrow to the survivors of Vice President Alvarado’s family. I also commit right now to all Americans we will look into every possibility as to what happened to his plane over the skies of Wyoming. I assure you we will not rest till we have answers.” 

“Now I would like to speak with you about private citizen Stevenson. I understand that sometimes the stress of leading a country in crisis is more than one can handle which seems to be the issue here. I do know that there were issues regarding his mental health. Since taking the oath of office, I was, made aware that President Stevenson had serious mental issues that go back to his childhood. He as a child was, abused and if not for help from others, he would have had a different course in life. Evidently, these issues resurfaced. President Stevenson’s Doctors who have been treating him are of the opinion the past few days have taken its toll. I was, made aware yesterday evening his personal White House physician was close to recommending he step down for health reasons. This same doctor had spoken to other members of his staff of Stevenson’s stress and saying he was, diagnosed with schizophrenia. The diagnosis of   Schizophrenia is a
mental disorder
often characterized by abnormal social behavior. Common symptoms include
false beliefs
,
unclear or confused thinking
.
This is exactly the behavior he displayed in his resignation speech. This according to his Doctors was, combined with acute paranoia.   

Stevenson it appears has decided that he could no longer perform his duties. He made the right decision for America needs strong leadership at this time. Members of his staff have told me that the Doctors, which cared for the President the past few months, will release additional information soon regarding his mental state. I will be reviewing this information to try and understand what happened to such a dynamic man that many of us not only respected but adored.”
