The Winds of God are Blowing II
Category: Religion and Philosophy

This is a second part to the first word I shared earlier in the week. 

     I saw buildings fall over as the winds of God blew.  The buildings were destroyed completely and the wood smashed.  The torches lit the fallen buildings on fire and as the fire burned the buildings were raised up within the fire and I could see people walking around inside the fire.  Then I saw a large giant of a figure of terra cotta that stood like a man and its height reached the sky.  The terra cotta giant was painted to look like a soldier and I could see that there were many people inside its hollow interior, but the figure had no life in itself.  I watched as it toppled over and many of the people that were inside were injured in the fall.  Shards of the terra cotta covered the ground where the figure had fallen.  Many left the area immediately.  Some I took to be ministers left, but others stayed and mourned near the figure in great bitterness and tears.  There they died with their eyes closed.  I saw the rest walk to a great river very wide and the depth was unknown.  Some played on the banks, while others dipped in their toes.  Still others leaped into the river diving down as far as they could go.  I saw people leaping into the river with inner tubes as well.  Others climbed onto sailing ships bound for the ocean.  There was great joy on the river.
