“They are here! They are here, the planes have come” I heard people shouting on the street. So the planes that will take christians away from the world have finally arrived. The world’s sin has reached its maturity, the promised destruction of the world has finally come. Me and my family have packed up lightly for this occasion, we looked at the precious and expensive things that we will leave behind, we smiled to each other, I said “it’s so worth it, leaving them here, we’re heading somewhere far more better”.
I managed to find a nearby plane, there were a lot people waiting to go inside the plane. When I got into the plane, the stewardess asked who I am then I told her my name. She skimmed through this passengers list and she told me that I am not there.. Franticaly, I argued that it couldn’t be, my name must be there, I am a christian. She had a look again, and she found my name there. I felt relieved, I was really surprised to see that inside the plane, it’s only less than half full. But I saw my sister there, I was really happy.
The plane was ready to take off, I felt excited to finally see what the place that I have been longing for my whole life. The plane was passing the streets of this world to prepare its take off, I saw through the window the crumbling empires that people have built, there was a thin layer of smoke in the air. I saw people outside the plane, they all wore sad expression, they looked on us inside intently, maybe they bid us farewell. And some of them looked at each other, they spoke these silence words “It’s true, there is a god”. I heard one guy actually shouted “Oh well, too bad, I took the wrong choice in my life and I have to bear the consequences, good on you christians”, I can see and feel his dissapointment. I was deeply saddened by this, the mood was really gloomy, did it ever occur to him to repent knowing that there is god and he’s coming to destroy everything? I said to myself “If I were given another chance to be back living in this world, I would work eagerly for the eternal riches”.
hmmm, interesting parabel…..where is the #1 by the way ??? 🙂
