"How did PEB hide this from me for all these years!?"
"A copy of the Word, still exists! But it is mine, now!"
"It will be my great pleasure to watch it burn"
"That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water
by the word," (Ephesians 5:26)
"I will cut it to ribbons...."
"....... and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word
of God:" (Ephesians 6:17)
"Aaagh! It is alive!"
"I will lock the accursed thing in this vault, so none shall be aware of
it's presence...."
"What is that light?"
Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces? (Jeremiah 23:29)
"Brady, I would like to make a proclamation."
"Yes, sire"
"From this day forward there shall be no ruling authority in the church.
Christ is the only Head of the church. The church is a group of equals--brothers
and sisters--no one shall exercise authority over others in the church. The
direct leading of God shall operate the church, in small groups, with the
purpose of spreading a Gospel of salvation healing and deliverance. The gift
of ministry is a gift in every believer.......there is no Christian sabbath
day.....giving is to the needs of every man.....apostleship is the first
purpose of the church and the right of every believer.......believers are
never to exercise authority over one another or insist on submission to any
authority but that of God Himself.........all believers are just as important
to God and................"
"Now I am the head of the church!"
"And as my first act, I will destroy an insane proclamation from this witless
old man."
"How do I look?--Advisor--Advisor--where are you?! Come and see the new master
of the church!"
"What is this strange glowing book?"
"This must be the Word of God, the sacred scriptures that I had heard about!
It shall be worshipped--revered as an icon. It is a holy thing."
"It shall be hidden from the view of commoners. We will place it in a far away sanctuary and preserve is as the holy thing that it is...."
And the sun sets on a time and place that is in the future, yet in the past.
