“It had a great, high wall with
twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were
written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel.” Revelation 21:12
Jim ran to the spot that Satan just
occupied. Could he have been telling the truth? In all honesty Heaven
had not been concerned with the planet Earth for quite a while. Time
moved differently for them. In the amount of time it took for Red to
ensure that his robe looked righteously tattered three humans will
have been born, lived, and died of old age.
“Belial! Tsor! Wicked one! Little
horn! Apollyon!” Red shouted as he shook his first to the ground.
“We do not have time for that right
now” Jim said as he exited the room. “One hundred million angels
and none knew this was going to happen?”
“How could they?” Red asked.
“Oh, shut up” Jim whispered. He
grabbed a cherubim that was battling the loose souls and demons by
flailing wildly at nothing by its small wings. “Where is the Lord?”
“Aah!” the human face shouted while
the bull and lion remained silent.
“Those always creeped me out if I'm
being honest” Red said as Jim released the cherubim. “I
mean...why do they even look like that? Seems a bit excessive.”
