We entered the galley of John’s ship just in time.
“Let’s pray.” John said.
“Lord, you are our Great Provider, our Mighty Protector. Thank You for this food and Thank You for our brethren here with us today. We ask that You strengthen us through Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ Name we pray, Amen.”
A room full of Amens accompanied John’s, then we were quiet. At that moment, John’s eldest, Prince Josiah, entered the galley and took a seat next to him.
“We’re all here?” John asked him.
“Yes, every one of us.” Prince Josiah replied.
“And the auto-pilot is on?” John winked at his son.
“Everything’s fine, Dad.” He said.
“I haven’t said much prior to this,” John said, “because we couldn’t have known who was listening. ‘for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”6 But now, my son has informed me that we’ve begun passing through. This is the reason I can now explain where we’re headed. Satan has no power in this place. You might call it a tent, albeit, a giant tent, and a tent whose fabric only God knows. The world calls it, the Dragon’s Triangle; a place where radio waves, radar, and sound cannot pass, and from which few have ever returned. Don’t worry though. We have a guide.”7
John walked over to one of the windows and raised the blinds. I about fell off my chair. An angel was riding in a chariot that was pulling the ship.8 It was then that I noticed the engines were off, but we were still moving. John sat back down.
“Please, let’s eat. This will be a long day.”
We were speechless upon seeing our first chariot of God, not to mention the angel who held its reigns. The women put on their prayer shawls the moment they realized we were in the presence of an angel.9 We ate without conversation. When we were finished, John got up and walked to the door.
“Follow me.” He said.
We walked out of the galley to stand on the deck.
“Take a look over the rail.” John said.
We looked. There was a huge wake trailing the ship as we sped along.
“I know this is hardest for Ish to understand.” He pointed to the wake and the chariot that pulled us. “But we in the Philippines know there is another world. A world that we seldom see but which contains spirits who are not like us. In fact, on Mindanao, that’s what we call the spirits, not like us, but please, don’t any of you be frightened. Any spirits you see here are the good guys, in that way, they are like us. As I said, Satan has no power here. He knows no more about the Dragon’s Triangle than the world does. It’s kind of funny that the world has chosen to name this place after the one creature who cannot enter, the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil.10 But such is the world, calling evil good, and good evil; putting darkness for light, and light for darkness; putting bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter.”11 John looked at his family lovingly. “These, our families, are good, but the world hates us,12 especially your countrymen, Ish. And they would steal our children if they could!”
John was referring to the recent placement of over three million home schooled American children into foster homes run by transexuals, fornicators, and adulteresses. I remembered how the government had first taken more than four hundred children from a small religious group, and there was no outcry, then they took thousands of the children of Hasidic Jews in New York City, and still no outcry, then methodically the state governments, under the auspices of the CPS,13 would select one group then another, slandering its members, then painting them as evil in order to justify stealing their precious children.14 After the state had gotten the children, they would put them into homes with drug abusers and teens with STDs.15 Any home was fit for the state, as long as no Bible could be found. Sadly, nothing could be done about the situation in the United States short of a heavenly intervention. Ever since the assassinations of the Supreme Court justices, our so-called President had a lock on power. Some even dared call him Messiah. Needless to say, I wouldn’t be returning home soon; my wife was pregnant with at least one more future home-schooler.
John continued his sermon.
“The world hates us. They hate those who have loving wives; wives who willingly follow them into marriage and submit to them as Sarah submitted to Abraham, calling their husband lord.16 The world hates fathers who refuse to allow their daughters to make bad choices, and who betroth them early; teaching them to follow the godly precepts stated by the Apostle Paul, that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, and give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.17 Yes, they hate us because they hate God’s Word, and all of you know that those who refuse to submit to God’s Word, refuse to submit to Jesus!18 Let’s continue to pray for those whose hearts are hard.
Now, I have a wonderful announcement for all of you. This really is a party, you’ll soon see, because you’re each going to receive an astounding gift. Every one of us on this ship, as well as millions of believers around the world, will receive…”
6. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12
7. Hosea 14:7 They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon. Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From me is thy fruit found. Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the LORD are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
8. The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place. Psalm 68:17
9. 1 Corinthians 5-10 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
10. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation 12:9
11. Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Isaiah 5:20
12. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. 1 John 3:13
I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. John 17:14
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. John 15:18
13. CPS is the oxymoronic acronym for Child Protective Services.
14. Children who are thus stolen by CPS will sometimes conveniently disappear from their records without a trace. If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you. Deuteronomy 24:7 CPS literally makes a business out of stealing and selling children. As their case load increases their personnel increase and those already working for CPS are promoted with pay raises for their increased theft of children. Their motivation has become to increase the size of their bureaucracy and they take the shortest route to that goal which is to steal more children.
Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? Romans 2:21
15. STD: Sexually Transmitted Disease
STDs are more prevalent among those who are in foster care than among the general public and they are certainly more prevalent among the general public than among homeschoolers.
16. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. 1 Peter 3:5-6
17. Improperly deferring marriage is the cause of much harlotry. Young women are to get married. In fact, the Apostle Paul commanded it,
“I will, therefore, that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.” 1Timothy 5:14
And again, Paul states,
“She shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.” 1Timothy 2:15
Saved from what? — saved from a life of fornication so that the adversary (Satan or anyone else who opposes righteousness) may not have any reason to attack the virtue of the young women. The Greek word translated as younger women is neos which means recently come into being, young, youthful, new, and in the context of marriage Paul is speaking of women who have recently become women, in other words, recently had their first menstrual cycle. So Paul not only commands that the younger women marry but he defines those young women much younger than the last hundred years of history has considered appropriate for marriage. Is it any wonder that fornication is so common today considering marriage is delayed far beyond the age at which a woman becomes a woman. Paul wrote scripture, these were not the mere words of a man, and unlike today, the Roman law of Paul’s day was actually in accordance with Scripture for Roman law required that upon reaching puberty every citizen must marry or lose many rights and privileges. The Lex Papia Poppaea, A.D. 9, decreed punishments such as the loss of inheritance rights for those who remained single after having attained puberty. A man or woman was given one hundred days to get married upon finding out they were the beneficiary of an inheritance or forfeit the inheritance.

18. John 5:46-47 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed Me: for he wrote of me. 47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
