Friends,
Then I saw another horse come from the North. It stopped and it was a black horse and he that sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard a voice saying, "A quart of wheat for a days wages, and three quarts of barley for a days wages; and do not harm the oil and the wine."

Friends,
The One with the Keys explained about the black horse. He said, " There is darkness in you, and that black horse resides in you. It is the darkness where there is no light, for darkness is the absense of light. There is a war in you and you can defeat the darkness and come out of the darkness into the light. We walk in darkness, but there will be a light that shines in the dark place when the day dawns and the Morningstar rises in your hearts."

Friends,
He continued, "The pair of scales that are in the hands of the one that sits on the black horse are a balance. The balance is the balance of Justice. There will be justice, and whatever a man sows, so shall he reap."

Friends,
I said to The Man, "If there is gong to be Justice, then I am on the low side of the balance. What can I do to change the balance of the Scales of Justice?"
He answered, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man that had loaned money to his friends and wanted to settle accounts with them. So he went to one of his friends that owed him $10,000.00. But he was not able to pay and the man said that he was going to sue him and take away his car and his house and put his children and his wife on the street. The man begged him for more time and said to him ,"Look, have paitiance with me, I will pay you later." The man had compassion on him and forgave him his debt.
Then the forgiven man went and found a man that owed him $100.00. He grabbed him by the throat and said, "Pay me my $100.00. The man fell down and said, "Have paitiance with me, I will pay you later." But he would not accept the delay and filled in court to collect the debt. So when his friends heard what he had done, they went to the man that forgave the $10,000.00 debt to the one that wanted to collect the $100.00 from the other, the man was furious and went to him and said, "You lousey rat, I forgave you that $10,000.00 because you begged me. Should you not also have compassion on your friend, just as had pity on you?" You give me that $10,000.00 back now or I will again sue you.
So is it the same in The Kingdom of Heaven, for My Father in Heaven will do the same to you, if each of you , from his heart, does not forgive his brother."

Friends,
He continued, "God is bringing you into a Good Land, a land of brooks and water, of fountains and springs, that flow out of valleys and hills, a land of Wheat and Barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive Oil and honey; a land in which you will eat Bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing, a land whose stones are iron. You can eat untill you are full and bless the land that God will give you. There you will find The Bread of Life and Rivers of Living Water."

Friends,
He continued, "When a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it produces much grain by comming up out of the earth to life.
You are made from the dust of the ground and it will corrupt and return to the dust of the Ground. But when the Rider that sits upon the White Horse abides in you, you aquier a new person that is incorrupt. There is a natural body and a spititual body. The first body was made from dust; the second man is made from heaven. And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, the spiritual man will bear the image of the heavenly Man."

Friends,
Then from the South a fourth horse appeared. It was a pale color and the name of him that sat on it was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given to them to kill with Death.

Friends,
He continued, "Fear not, for I have the keys to Death and Hell and that horse can only ride with my approval. He is an enemy, and also the last enemy. And Death and Hell will be cast into the Lake of Fire which is the second Death. It will be the Death of Death. He that overcomes will not be harmed by the Second Death. And in the City of Peace there will be no Death, for God will dwell with all those that are with Him. And He wll wipe away evry tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things will have passed away.

Friends,
Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He that sat on him was called Faithfull and True. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. He was clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.

Friends,
He who sat upon the white horse said," Today, if you hear God's voice, do not harden your hearts. You can not enter the City of Peace, for you have been weak and have fallen to temptations. But there is someone that can sympathize with your weaknesses. One that passed through the heavens and was in all points tempted like you were, but never fell to temptation Himself. He can have compassion on those who have gone astray, since He Himself was also subjected to weakness."

The 7th Gate- The fire

Friends,
It was getting toward evening and we saw an orange glow in the sky that was comming toward us. There was also red flames and smoke approaching us. One said, "It is the unquenchble forest fire that sheriff Lee told us about." The fire surrounded us and was comming toward us.
Another said, "How are we going to be saved from this death?"
Then the Man that had the keys to the 7th Gate said to us, " Do not fear any of these things that you are about to suffer. Be faithfull until death,and I will give you the Crown of Life."

Friends,
We saw that we were cornered. The only escape from the fire was through the 7th Gate. One asked the Man that had the keys to let us go through the Gate. He said, "Not evryone that gets to the 7th Gate will enter through it. You see the three locks on the Gate. Each lock has two key holes. I have one set of keys, but the other set must be supplied by you in order to open the locks."
Then He continued, "In the City of Peace, there is a rest; there is a refreshing, and those that overcome will eat of The Tree of Life which is in the midst of The Paradise of God. You have heard; here a little, there a little, line upon line, precept upon precept. My sheep hear My voice, and where I am , there will those that hear My voice be also."

Friends,
One asked, "What are these keys to the locks? Do I have to bestowe all of my goods to the poor? Do I have to have sacrificed my first-born? Will God be pleased with thousands of rams? Or ten thousand rivers of oil? Or the fruit of my body?
He answered, "God has shown you what is good; and what does He require of you?
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God."

Friends,
Then a group of our arch enemies appeared.They had knives and chains and were drunk. Their leader said, "We were forced to come this way because of the fire. We are surrounded and the only Way to escape the fire is to get to Salem through that Gate. Who of you has the keys to the Gate?" The Man answered and said, "I have he keys." Then the leader of their group said,"Give the keys to us. If you will not give them to us, we will climb over the Gate."

Friends,
Then the One that had calmed the storm and stilled the sea said to him that demanded the keys, "He that does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. But He who enters the door is the Shepherd of the sheep. To Him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear His voice; and He calls His own sheep by name and leads them out. And when He brings out His own sheep, He goes before them; and his sheep follow Him, for they know His voice. Yet they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers." The gang that demanded the keys, or they would climb over the Gate stood motionless and shocked, for they did not understand the things which He spoke to them.

Friends,
Then one in our group said, "Those were not the words of a mad man, for we have been with Him and seen His works. We are surrounded by flames , but I have faith that we will make it to Salem through the Gate. Even though the bridge over the Great Gulf is out, I have faith that we will passover it." Then the gang leader said, "You would have to believe that someone could be raised from the dead to beleive that we will be able to passover the Great Gulf."

Friends,
The fire s approaching us rapidly. Then the leader of the pack said to us, "Don't listen to this guy. He does not know the way to escape the flames to get to Salem. I know this guy. His name is Melvin Chizedek. He has been run out of evry town back on the road. He claims to the people in the towns back on the road that one can be raised from the dead. He is a crazy man. Don't trust Him. Follow us back on the road and we will show you a Way out of here to be saved from the flames."

Frends,
Then the Man that calmed the storm said, "Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity.
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass,
And wither as the green herb.
Trust in God and do good;
Dwell in the land , and feed on His faithfulness.
Delight yourself also in God,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your Way to God,
Trust also in Him,
And He will bring it to pass.
He shall bring forth your righteousnessas the light,
And your Justice as the noonday.
Rest in God, and wait paitiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.
Cease from anger and forsake wrath;
Do not fret- it only causes harm.
For evildoes shall be cut off;
But those who wait on God,
They shall inherit the earth.
For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more;
But the meek shall inherit the earth,
And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
The wicked plots against the just,
And gnashes at him with his teeth.
And God laughs at him,
For He sees that his day is comming.
The wicked have drawn the sword
And have bent their bow,
To cast down the poor and needy,
To slay those who are of upright conduct.
Their sword shall enter their own heart,
And their bows shall be broken.
A little that a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.
But God upholds the righteous.
God knows the days of the upright,
And their inheritance shall be forever.
They shall not be ashamed in the evil time,
And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied
The wicked borrows and does not repay,
But the righteous shows mercy and gives.
Though a good man fall, he shall not be utterly cast down;
For God upholds him with His hand.
I have seen the young and have seen the old,
Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
Nor his decendants begging bread.
God is ever merciful.
Depart from evil, and do good.
For God loves Justice.
Wait on God
And keep His Way.
And He shall exalt you to inherit the land.
God is your strengh in the time of trouble.
He shall deliver the righteous from the wicked.
Because they Trust in Him."
Lou

Friends,
The fire was aproaching. And suddenly the Man that stilled the sea had vanished. And two men stood next to us and said, "Why do you stand gazing up to heaven. He will return in the same manner as He left."
Then we heard a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind. Then fire was comming down out of the sky and it appeared to be great cinders or somthing that I can not describe. Then a change occured in us and we were all able to speak in the other peoples language that were there from other countries. We were all amazed and perplexed and said to one another, "What could this mean?" The gang members mocked us and said, "You are all drunk."
But Steve stood up and said, " Let it be known to you and heed my words. For these are not drunk as you suppose. But this is what was spoken by the ancient prophet:
And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,
That I will pour out my spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and daughters shall prophesy,
Your young men shall see visions,
Your old men shll dream dreams.
I will pour out My spirit in those days;
I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath;
Blood and fire and vapors of smoke.
The sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the Name of The Lord shall be saved.
"We will be saved," one shouted. Then a cloud appeared and rain began to fall. Then there were torrents of rain and the fire was put out. The smoke cleared and a giant rainbow appeared over the Way to Salem.

Friends,
The leader of the gang said, "This must be a miracle, for there could not be that much rain in such a short period of time unless it was done to save us. Tell us how we can join you."
I said to them," I call you now aside, friends, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice to God. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds.
For I say, through the grace given to me, to evryone that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly and use what God has given you to the best of your ability. For we are members of one body, each with a different function.
Let us love without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil, Cling to what is good. Be kindly affectionate to one another. Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, and give hospitality to strangers.
Bless those who persecute you. Rejoice with those that rejoice, and weep with those that weep.
Repay no one evil for evil. Do not avenge yourselves.
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
Lou

Friends,
Then the leader of the gang turns toward the Rainbow and starts to speak. He is on his knees. Here is what he said,
"Have mercy upon me , O God,
According to your lovingkindness,
According to the multitude of your tender mercies,
Blot out my transgressions.
I aknowlege my transgressions and they are ever before me.
Against you, You only, have I done evil in Your sight
Purge me and wash me,
Make me hear joy and gladness,
Hide Your face from my transgressions,
And blot out all my iniquities.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit withn me.
Do not cast me away from your presence,
And put Your Spirit in me.
Uphold me by Your generous Spirit.
Then I will teach transgressors Your ways.
Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God,
And my tongue shall sing aloud of your rightiousness.
O Lord, open my lips,
And my mouth shall show forth Your praise.
For You do not desire sarifice, or else I would give it;
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
A broken and contrite heart-
These You will not despise.
Lou

Friends,
Our enemies are now our friends. I wondered if this could be the time that the ancient prophet spoke of when he said,
"The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,
The leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
The calf and the lion will be together,
And the lion will eat straw like the ox.
A child shall lay by the cobra's den.
They shall not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountian,
For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord
As the waters cover the sea.
It shall come to pass in that day
That the Lord shall set His hand
To recover the OUTCASTS,
From the four corners of the earth.
There will be a HIGHWAY for the people,
As in the day that they once came out from the land of Egypt."
Lou

Friends,
The ones that were our enemies were now our friends. The leader said, I see the Highway beyond the Gate. I see the Rainbow over it. And I see a Rider on a White Horse and He is trotting down the Road to the Gate."
The Rider stopped on the other side of the Gate and the gang leader said, "How do we get on this Road?" The horse stood still and the Rider said, "The Highway of the upright is to depart from evil."
