Chapter 9

The Concentration Camp

Steve was taken to the outskirts of a city near the countryside. Maple, Chestnut, and Beech trees dotted the landscape in clusters or patches. The farm fields appeared barren after a harvest. Two conjoined diesel locomotives sped down some tracks, pulling a long train of shipping containers on flatbed cars. They looked like a normal shipment being transported by rail. But, Steve wondered, ‘Where are they headed?’ 

Hovering above the ground with his Lord, both began moving with the train, accelerating. Soon, they passed by the two locomotives at the front and continued flying down the tracks. In little time, Steve caught sight of a fenced enclosure below. He and Jesus slowed to hover over the enclosure. Long brown buildings, or barracks, were arranged in rows, side by side, below. Square buildings and other structures occupied a central grassy field that divided the formations of barracks into two sections. A high fence about fifteen feet tall, covered with razor wire, formed a large, square border around these structures. Watching the activities below like eagles, sentries in guard towers lifted binoculars to their eyes from time to time.

About a mile away sat a mining operation. Tall silos, sloping conveyor belts, and other buildings for processing coal identified it as a coal mine. Steve had seen pictures online, but he knew very little about coal mining. In addition to the mining structures, dozens of other buildings sat outside the fifteen-foot-tall fence and its perimeter of guard towers. A corridor, lined on either side with razor wire-topped chain link fences, connected the camp to a group of buildings which were situated inside a fenced-in boundary. Guard towers also monitored this enclosure.

Jesus brought Steve closer to the camp until they were hovering twenty feet above the ground. Tall gates were opened in a narrow, rectangular enclosure adjoining the base on the south side of the large enclosure. Train tracks passed under the gates and through this narrow strip of enclosed grass. In a few seconds, a loud horn could be heard blaring as the conjoined diesel locomotives rolled down a railroad siding that passed through these gates. Soon, the train slowly crawled to a stop before a large gate that opened directly into the larger enclosure where the barracks were located.

Soldiers came out through the gates and began detaching locking bars that held the containers to the flatbeds. A heavy-duty forklift reached for the first container and carefully brought it into the camp. Russian soldiers surrounded it, tightening their grip on their rifles. [See the "Footnote" at the end.] Once the forklift had set the container down, the guards unbolted the doors and flung them open. Immediately, they started shouting and motioning with their hands. Reluctantly, men wearing orange jump suits walk out of the container. They appear to tired after having a long journey shut up in the container. Then, Steve noticed small holes that had been cut into the sides of the containers for air and ventilation.

The soldiers started shouting at them to stand in formation. Some commotion followed, and a few fights suddenly broke out between guards and prisoners. The guards slammed their rifles into the angry prisoners that had attacked them and knocked the prisoners to the ground. The guards shouted at them to stand. Some stood, but a few remained on the ground. Some medics were sent for to attend to the wounded.

A man who looked like a professional wrestler cursed the guards and suddenly went into attack mode. His three-hundred pound body slammed into a guard nearby and knocked him off balance. He ripped the guard’s rifle from his hands and grabbed the man by the throat, choking him with a vice-like grip.

Chapter 8

The Decline Leading to the Collapse

“My son,” Jesus said to Steve, “I will now show you some events that will lead up to the nuclear attacks on your nation. These events will shake your nation to the core, but your nation will not repent from its wicked ways, nor will your nation turn from its wickedness and pride. We will leave this concentration camp and move to another location.”

With that, Jesus took Steve’s hand and the formation of men, standing at attention, vanished from Steve’s eyes to be replaced, the next moment, with the sparkling interior of a mall concourse. People flowed through the corridor, going from shop to shop, visiting with each other, and enjoying the social interaction of friends and the pleasure of purchasing merchandise. Women with strollers, college students with iphones, cliques of teenagers, husbands with their wives, and children moved about in a sea of faces.

Steve and his Lord were about fifteen feet above the white, glossy floor, facing a large fountain that once bubbled up water over its descending troughs. But, the water had been shut off and a sign nearby read “Out of order”. Banners hung from the ceiling on long cables, proclaiming that store space was open at lower rates than before. Other banners some distance away indicated that new space would soon be available for any business or organization, regardless of political or religious association. Steve could tell that the mall ownership was desperate for attracting businesses or enterprises to lease floor space.

Chapter 7

Invasion

Jesus took him by the hand and the room faded away to be replaced with starry space. Steve appeared to be in outer space at about a thousand miles from planet Earth’s surface. He saw the continent of North America spread out before him, following the curvature of the earth. Clouds, resembling wisps of smoke, swirled over parts of Canada and over portions of the U.S. The view below began zooming into the western seaboard. The zoom-in continued, focused on a position of the ocean just off the California coast.

Container ships appeared, surrounded by multitudes of navy escort ships, such as cruisers, frigates, and destroyers. Steve could not tell what country they were from because he could only see them from high above. But, the zoom-in continued until he seemed to be a few hundred feet above the ships.

“What are all these vessels doing just off America’s coast?” he wondered to himself.

The view panned some miles away from the ships, toward the shore. Container ships were entering a port and some were already being unloaded by large gantry cranes. But, other container ships bristled with military hardware and tanks. Tanks, personnel carriers, and trucks were being loaded onto large flatbed, semi-truck trailers. Time passed quickly in this vision or dream, so that in just seconds of Steve’s time, the unloading operation was complete. Now, the trucks pulled out and headed down the streets toward their destinations.

“What is happening here, Lord Jesus?” Steve asked his Savior.

“My son, these are Chinese soldiers and sailors unloading their vehicles and equipment in preparation for the full-scale invasion of certain areas of America. They will invade and conquer America, and they will utterly destroy many cities and many people by way of poison gas, nuclear weapons, starvation, and bio-weapons. The bio-weapons that the Chinese and Russians have developed are very hazardous.

“Many will die from these plagues because many have rebelled against Me, and would not repent from their sins when I repeatedly called out to them. Many refused to seek Me when times got difficult, and chose rather to continue in sin, even though they knew I was calling out to them. Many chose to walk after their flesh, and after the world, than after Me. They knew the Gospel, but they rejected it because their sin was more pleasing to them. I am grieved with their hearts. Come, let us see what happened to America only weeks before this invasion is to take place.”

The scene changed to an aerial view of Chicago and Lake Michigan. Sparkling skyscrapers stood like a forest of silver pillars beside the calm water of the lake. From his vantage point above the city, Steve could see thousands of cars moving here and there like insects crawling through the grass. Suddenly, a fast-moving, metal object shot through the air and arched toward the city.

Chapter 6

The Love of Money

Suddenly, two angels entered the cave, behind Steve. They were each about eight feet tall, and wore long, white robes that nearly touched the ground. Each angel wore golden sandals on his feet and a golden belt or girdle around his waist. White wings were tucked away, resting against their backs.

“Who are you?” Steve asked, surprised.

“We are messengers from the Lord, who have been sent to bring you to another place in Hell,” one said.

Jesus walked beside Steve as the angels led him out of the cave, and into the large cavern which was filled with smoke, lava flows, and pits. Then, one picked him up and they took off flying through the cavern, beating their angelic wings. The angels headed straight toward the mouth of a shaft in the ground, and the tunnel soon filled Steve’s vision. The craggy sides of the shaft rushed past as they descended rapidly. In a few seconds, they had passed through the tunnel and into another cavern. It was also filled with smoke and lava.

The angels landed in one corner of the cavern where a large furnace melted gold in a huge, ceramic pot. Some wingless, lizard-like demons pumped bellows to maintain a hot fire under the ceramic vat or crucible. Others flew over to the molten gold and dipped large, ceramic ladles into the liquid metal. With the molten gold, these winged demons flew away to various areas of the cavern.

Same noticed the screams again and the oppressive, atmospheric heat and sulfurous smell. But, the heat was somehow not as hot as he thought it should be.

“Dear Jesus,” Steve said to his Lord, “where are we and why do I not feel as hot as before?”

“My son, you are in a place of judgment, in which lost souls, who were covetous, are judged for their rebellion against Me; and for loving possessions; and material goods; and money more than they loved Me. That is true. The reason you do not feel the full heat is that I do not wish for you to suffer. What the souls in Hell feel is extremely high temperatures and suffocating fumes. They feel this intense heat because they are outside My domain of peace and blessing, and no peace or blessing can reach such souls who will not repent, but will only harden their hearts against Me. I cannot give them peace because they have willfully rejected Me over, and over, until their hearts were very hard. And, I the LORD your God and Savior have spoken.”

Steve suddenly noticed a dark shape zoom over his head, beating its wings quickly. It was a demon carrying a ladle and it was headed toward a figure that was somewhat obscured by smoke. The figure was only about forty feet away. Jesus and the angels escorted Steve as he approached the figure. He stepped forward with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension, not knowing what he would find.

Chapter 5

Gossip and Slander

Steve arrived instantly before the mouth of a cave in the side of a rock wall. Torches lined the walls of the cave to provide light within. Moving away from the cave mouth, Steve looked around him and found that he was in a large cavern with lava streams oozing through channels. Hideous laughter, mingled with screams, formed a background noise throughout the cavern. Smoke ascended upward and vanished into large shafts in the rocky ceiling. Demonic figures moved about, casting shadows against rocks and boulders.

Then, cries and shrieks issued from the cave entrance, which was a few feet away. Steve, somewhat hesitantly, slowly approached and poked his head inside. He was reluctant to see what was inside, but curiosity drew him. By the torchlight inside this small cave, Steve saw a grey demon, with large, black eyes, pouring a black fluid from a bottle into a woman’s mouth. She was strapped to a metal chair. Her arms were locked to armrests by iron-like bands. A horned demon, which resembled a satyr, had pried her mouth open and was forcing her to drink a horrible brew. She screamed and choked on the substance, trying to spit it out, but the demon grabbed her mouth and shut it tight, so she was forced to swallow.

When he was sure she had swallowed, he let go, and her voice screamed in pain and anger. And she cursed the demon who was torturing her. Then, she cursed God for not letting her enter Heaven.

“Have some more of this medicine. It will cure your sickness. The acid will cleanse your filthy tongue,” the demon said, laughing.

Jesus appeared beside Steve and the demon turned around to see the Lord. Terror filled his heart. Without a whisper, the demon trotted away from the woman, folded up his black wings, and slipped into a tunnel entrance in the back of the cave.

___________________________

The Works of the Law and Pride

Steve was instantly moved to a cave. It was illuminated in the red glow of some lava streams that issued from fissures in the rock walls, and ran in troughs that snaked along the ground. He was careful to avoid stepping in the lava as he took in his new surroundings. Loud screams suddenly shot through the cave and caused Steve to flinch. Some nefarious forms surrounded an object, moving about it, and their bat-like wings obscured it from Steve’s eyes. He could tell now that they were demons. Grey, warty skin penetrated, here and there, through leather-like material that they wore for clothing. Each demon was thrusting a spear into a wooden coffin on the ground. Inside, someone was screaming in pain and cursing.

Then, with quick movements, the evil spirits pulled a man from the coffin and dragged him across the uneven terrain of the cave, up to a pool of lava, which was fed by lava streams. Smoke rose up from the lava pool and ascended into an opening in the ceiling. The demons grabbed all four of the man’s limbs and held him over the lava pool, slowly lowering him closer and closer to the extremely hot, liquid rock. As the man inched closer to the bubbling lava, he began to utter a guttural roar and screamed in pain. The evil creatures slowly moved him closer to the lava. Then, in unison, they abruptly pushed his body into the liquid rock. He screamed louder than Steve had ever heard a man scream before as his body was melted in the intense heat of the lava. He was totally submerged.

In seconds, his head appeared above the churning soup. But, instead of a man’s face, Steve was shocked and horrified to see that his skin, eyes, and muscles were completely gone. A skeleton head was all Steve saw. A skeleton hand and arm shot up through the lava and clenched its fingers. Steve looked away and felt like he wanted to run and hide somewhere from the sight. But, a sense of peace swept over him with the assurance that Jesus was right with him, and understood how he felt.

The demonic creatures reached in with large metal hooks and pulled the skeleton out of the lava. Once they dropped him on the ground, the skeleton man screamed, and wailed, and pounded his bony fists into the ground, cursing God. Somehow, Steve could hear the man curse God, even though all Steve could see was a skeleton with no lungs. But, he remembered that he was seeing a spiritual realm that really existed deep in the earth, which the Bible described in detail throughout its pages. [Click here to check out the "Footnote" in Part 3 about the topic of Hell.]

Then, right before Steve’s eyes, the skeleton man began to grow skin and quickly turned back into a normal-looking man. Ragged, black clothes formed over his body as his skin and body tissues grew back. In about a minute or two, he was back to the way he had looked before being dropped into the lava pool.

Jesus appeared, standing beside Steve, and motioned for the demons to leave. They withdrew into holes in the sides of the cave. The wretched-looking man stood to his feet and glared at Jesus. But, then, he changed his expression to one of great grief, and he dropped to the ground and pleaded with Jesus to bring him up to the surface of earth, and give him back his life.

“Lord,” the man begged, “you know that I served you faithfully for many years. You know I was born-again at a summer camp, and that I became a pastor and an evangelist. I warned people about Hell. I preached to them that they should repent from their sins. Please bring me back to earth. I’ve suffered for decades in Hell. Please, Lord, take me back to earth. I will follow you if you give me back my life.”

Seeing this man’s wretched condition, Steve felt sorry for him and wondered to himself, “Why is such a man in Hell? He was a born-again Christian and a pastor.”

“Mark, you were a pastor and you were an evangelist, and you did witness to people, but you lost your first love. You turned away from My ways, and thought that your own works would satisfy My conditions for holiness and Heaven. You thought your own efforts were good enough. Then, as time went on, you began to perform for Me, doing things I did not ask you to do, and working and ministering, but you did it all out of self-righteousness and pride.

“I convicted you that you must repent and trust only in My blood to save you, and to make you right with Me, but you did not want to trust only in My blood to save you. You believed, after some time, that your own works were really what made you saved. Your pride increased as time went on, and you thought you were above the law. As a pastor, you told men that when they repent from their sins, they must mean it, and that to make sure they mean it, they must give more tithe, and offer up long prayers, and do acts of service for My Kingdom, to make sure that they were truly repentant for their sins.

“But, these works of ‘righteousness’ are actually sinful and self-righteous, because you were teaching these people that these works, and not My precious blood alone, made people righteous and holy before Me. You denied that My blood was all it took to cleanse and save people from their sins. You taught a false gospel, and you became very vain in your imaginations. Your heart was darkened with pride and self-righteousness. You thought that by your own works you could please Me, and truly be given salvation.

“You even taught that salvation was not just by Jesus Christ, but by works of righteousness, which My Word teaches against. You caused many people to go astray from the faith, and to fall away by way of your false doctrines. I shall hold you accountable for your false teachings and for coming against My servants. I sent people to warn you, but you ridiculed them. And, you even cast some out of your Church. You spoke gossip about them and slandered them to your congregation. You found verses that you preached on, which were taken out of context, and away from their original meanings, to bolster your false gospel with something that resembled truth. But, it was a deception that you preached.

“You lied to people and told them that their righteousness only can guarantee their salvation. But, My Word says that there is none righteous, no not one. My Word says that by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. I will hold you, and others like you, accountable for what you have taught the people, and for your choice to reject Me, in favor of your own self-righteousness and false works of service, which you thought were for My Kingdom. I shall not let people like you enter Heaven, unless such people truly repent from their sins, and truly trust in Me for salvation.

“As for your desire to return to earth and obey Me, I cannot permit that, for I see your heart, that you would not trust in My blood on earth, just as you hadn’t trusted in My blood before you died in that accident. Your heart is set in its wicked ways and is very hardened against Me.

“I cannot make your heart softened because I would be going against your free will to decide what you want to do. It saddens Me to see you in this condition, Mark, but you cannot be free from this judgment because you will never change your mind or your heart about your beliefs concerning My Kingdom. If I brought you to Heaven now, you would hate it and plug your ears because you served yourself on earth. Serving Me and doing My will were the farthest things from your carnal and corrupt mind. I cannot let such a person as you enter Heaven, I am sad to say.”

Turning to Steve, Jesus said, with tears in His eyes, “I am sad to see this man in such a state, but he has given himself to the devil, and the devil has the legal right to harass and punish him, because he served the devil by serving his pride and self-righteousness. He served the devil by casting out My servants from his church, and by teaching a false gospel that cannot save. I am very grieved with such as he. Now, we will move on to a new location.”

Chapter 4

The Unforgiving Husband

Steve found himself standing in a nondescript room, looking into a screen on one wall of the room. The screen was about twenty feet in width, and ten feet in height. Displayed on the screen was a kitchen. A man was just pulling a microwave dinner out of the microwave. He was muttering to himself and his eyes looked rather gloomy. He sat down and bowed his head to pray. After praying briefly, he peeled off the cover and began to eat his dinner, without any human company.

“That cursed woman,” he muttered between bites, “she doesn’t think I make a good husband.”

He cussed before saying, “She thinks Tom is a better man than I. She thinks I am selfish. She’s the selfish one. Stupid woman! And her stupid boyfriend!”

After some more bites, he said, “Margaret is a fool. She took the kids and doesn’t let me see them. She says that I’m unstable. Unstable? I’m perfectly stable. I provided a home and food for her, and all she does is complain about my lack of care for her, but I do care for her. Now, she’s with Tom. That scoundrel! He stole my wife.”

The man paused and chewed quickly. He coughed and sputtered, and raised a glass of water to his mouth to wash down the food.

“That Tom is a―” the man was moving his mouth, but Steve didn’t hear the words. A few seconds later, Steve heard him say: “I’m going to make him pay. One of these days, he’s going to pay for what he did. And, Margaret will pay dearly.”

The scene changed to a view of a highway from above. A tomato-red 1968 Chevrolet Camaro cruised down the asphalt, moving a little faster than the other cars on the highway. Then, the inside of the Camaro appeared with the angry man sitting in the driver’s seat. He was driving too fast because the speedometer read 75 mph and the speed limit signs outside read 55 mph.

The car approached a sharp turn on the side of a steep hill, and the signs indicated he should slow to 40 mph, and then 30 mph. But, the driver recklessly maintained his speed. Seeing that he was starting to lose control and skid, the driver tried to hit the break, but he was going too fast, and his car plowed through the guard rail with a loud shriek of metal, and tumbled down a steep slope to the bottom of a canyon. On its way down, the Camaro bounced and rolled, flipping like a toy as it struck boulders. Near the bottom it slammed into a large boulder and bent like a crushed pop can. Flames erupted from the engine, sending up clouds of black smoke.

Steve watched, with horror, as the scene change to a close up of the car. Two grey creatures, with bat-like wings and sharp claws, flew toward the car, and their long, thin arms reached inside. They pulled something out through the metal underside of the car, which was facing skyward, as if the metal were made of fog. It was the driver’s spirit and soul, Steve realized. It looked just like the man he saw at the dinner table, but this man wore black garments that looked somewhat ragged. Fear was on his face as the evil spirits pulled him out of the car and rushed straight for the ground.

The Man Who Committed Adultery

Instantly, Steve found himself in a chamber made of granite rock. Five hideous-looking demons were facing a man they had chained up to a wall. He wore dirty, rotting, black clothes. His face was contorted with rage. He screamed in pain as the demons took spears and poked him all over his body, unmercifully. They seemed to delight in giving him pain. He had holes and cuts all over his clothes and skin.

Jesus ordered the demons to leave, and they left. Then, Steve could see the man more clearly. He was filled with holes, but no blood was coming from them. After a little time, the holes began to close up. [Click here to check out the "Footnote" in Part 3 about the topic of Hell.]


“Who is this man?” Steve asked Jesus.

“You many ask him, My son.”

“Who are you?” Steve said, facing the man chained to the wall.

The man glared at Jesus and cursed him.

“Be silent and speak to this man,” Jesus ordered.

“I was a Church-goer. I went every Sunday to a mega church. I regularly attended weekly prayer meetings, but I didn’t feel like I really cared so much about God. I mainly went to the prayer meetings because my little daughter was unsaved, and I wanted her to become a Christian. But, I also went because I felt I needed to.”

“Why?” Steve asked.

“I felt I should because I needed to do something for God. I mean, if you are involved with pornography and dating a woman who wasn’t your wife, you need to do something to get a good report card with God. I divorced my first wife because she didn’t like my habits and vices. Then, I met this cute lady at the church who took an interest in me. I felt I must be something special for her to do that. Anyway, she and I dated until we decided we should get married. I don’t see what’s so wrong with that. But, just in case God wouldn’t like that, I took part in the midweek prayer group and I increased my weekly tithe. Surely, God would be happy with me then.”

“Did you feel guilty about marrying a woman who wasn’t your wife and about the internet sin?” Steve asked.

“Yes, I guess. I felt something convicting me. It had to have been the Holy Spirit. But, I didn’t listen to Him. I mean, I had God’s grace to continue sinning, didn’t I? I was not under the law, so that means I could partake in sin. But, God is more strict than I thought. He doesn’t want us to have fun.”

“You are not telling him the truth, David,” Jesus said. “Tell him the truth.”

“I was incorrect to say that God is strict. He isn’t, I guess. Someone at the prayer group read a Bible verse from Galatians 5 that struck me like a hammer. I was very convicted, but I refused to repent from My sin.”

“What was the verse?” Steve asked.

“It was actually several verses. The passage that struck me was Galatians 5:19-21. It says that people who commit adultery, and fornication, and uncleanness ‘shall not inherit the kingdom of God.’ I felt very convicted, but as the next person shared a verse, I began to close my heart to the Holy Spirit’s conviction. I said to myself that I really wasn’t such a bad person, and that the verses in Galatians 5 were for unbelievers, and not Christians. I had God’s grace.

“But, years later, I happened to read Hebrews 10. Hebrews 10:28-30 really struck me, but I shrugged off the conviction. The verses said that if someone did despite to the Spirit of grace and treated the blood of Jesus, by which he was sanctified, an unholy thing…such a person would be judged by God. I understood, by the Holy Spirit, that the one who is sanctified by the blood of Jesus is a born-again Christian. I also remember it said elsewhere that judgment would begin at the house of God.

“But, I rejected the scripture because I loved my sin and I didn’t want to stop. I still believe that that sin was not so bad. Look what Hitler did to the Jews or what Pol Pot did to his people. I’m really not so bad of a person. I chose to believe that God was fine with sin because I’m no longer under a law. But, Hebrews 10 was warning people about falling away. Also, I heard fellow Christians, who knew about my second marriage, share Luke 16:18 and other verses with me about how it was adultery to divorce and remarry, unless the spouse was dead.

“But, I ignored it because I knew of other couples that were living like I and my second wife lived. But, the Bible was clear that what I was doing was adultery, according to the Law of Moses and the teachings of Jesus. But, I still don’t see what’s so wrong with adultery. I know it’s against the Bible, but I can’t agree that it is something a person shouldn’t do.”

“Why can’t you agree with the Bible?” Steve asked.

“I, I can’t agree with something that goes against My own heart,” the man said. “If my heart says I’m right, then who can blame me for going against God’s Word?”

“You know what you did was sin, and you can’t even repent right now?” Steve asked.

This is a short story about a young man named Steven who was given dreams from God that reveal truth God has shown me (the writer) that His Church needs to hear. Though this is written as fiction, the words spoken by Jesus are actual words that God showed me. So, this is not just a fictional work. It applies to our current world and to the Church. I encourage you to seek God about this to find out what He would show you about this story.

Chapter 3

In the Pit

With that, Jesus took Steve instantly to another place. The place was full of choking, noxious fumes and barely any light could be seen. A terrible, sulfuric smell reached his nose, like the smell of rotting eggs. Hideous laughter, mixed with shrieks and screams, came from various directions, in front of and behind Steve. The temperature was very hot and oppressive like what one might expect in a volcano.

“Lord Jesus,” Steve said, trembling, “where are you?”

“I’m right here with you,” Jesus said from Steve’s right hand.

“Where are we?” Steve asked.

 A light shone suddenly about Steve and he saw Jesus standing beside him. His loving presence gave Steve peace and a sense that he was protected.

Before his eyes, Steve saw hundreds of pits, in the ground, filled with smoke and lava. Locked in a metal cage on the ground, a man, dressed in black, ragged clothes, was writhing in pain and cursing. He was cursing God and cursing the Son of God, Jesus Christ, and pointing his finger at Jesus. [See "Footnote" below.]

“You put me here to die. I hate you. I hate all your people.”

“Who are you?” Steve asked, leaning forward to see better.

The man was covered with flames that he tried to put out. Worms crawled over his skin and into his nose. A demon stood near the cage, blowing on the flames with a set of bellows. Another demon poked him with a spear every so often. Both had goat hoofs, bat-like wings, and snake-like tails that poked out from leather-like material they wore as clothing. Their bodies were covered with dark grey skin. Small horns protruded from their foreheads.

The demons stopped what they were doing as both Jesus and Steve approached the cage. In seconds, they left the man alone and darted into small holes in the side of a large boulder nearby. The worms that crawled over the man’s skin began sliding down his body, and moving away from him.

The man in the cage glared at Jesus as he responded to Steve’s question. “I was a missionary to China. I served God for ten years before my life was taken from me in an accident. I did good works for Jesus every day of my life since I was born-again, but I kept working and working for God. I believed that My own works could save Me. I wish my works could have saved me. I wish God would let me enter Heaven, but He is cruel and unjust to make me suffer like this.”

“Tell him the truth, Matthew,” Jesus said.

“Okay, I was lying. I do deserve this, I guess, because I came to a point in My life where I didn’t see a need to trust in Jesus alone for salvation. Why should I? I believed that my own works could save me. I believed that if I sinned against God, all I had to do was do more good deeds, and my good deeds would pay for my bad ones. But, I was made to believe that I was mistaken. My good works, God says, cannot pay for my sin, even if I believed they could. But, cursed be the name of --”

“I don’t permit you to speak that way, Matthew,” Jesus said. “Tell this man the truth.”

“I really began to harden my heart against God’s conviction for me to repent and trust only in Jesus Christ for salvation. I thought, I have done many good works for God. I led 90 people to the Lord. I gave out thousands of tracts in many Chinese dialects. I would spend long hours praying through my prayer book. I worked with orphans in an orphanage. I had taught people about following the Ten Commandments and the teachings of Christ, but I began trusting in my works, and not in the teachings of Christ, as they were taught me.
