RAPTURE "a state or experience of being carried away by overwhelming emotion; a mystical experience by which the spirit is exalted to a knowledge of divine things" - Merriam Webster

I started attending bible classes in the Atlanta Branch of The Assembly of Divine Reality on Wednesday, July 10, 1996.   On Saturday, July 20, 1996, I had the following dream (which SCARED the CRAP out of me) and gave this testimony in November 1996:

In my dream, I was sitting in a metal folding chair on the right side of an older woman who was stretched on a table like the ones an undertaker uses to examine a dead body.   She was on her death bed, but I was still consoling her.   We were the only ones in this room which was in the middle of the side of this building.   There was more to the building on either side of the door to enter this room.   Someone entered the door which connected this room to the outside and brought a baby to me wrapped in a white blanket.   I knew this was my child even though it was not my daughter.   As I stood to take this baby into my arms, the dying woman turned away from me.   I stood and carried my baby to the door and looked outside towards the hill up on the right.   Lots of people were gathered on this hill looking at the sky like they were waiting for the Easter Sunrise.   I looked at them, then looked at a cloud that started to eclipse the sun.   This cloud was shaped like a spider with it's front legs stretched forward.   As the head of this spider began to cover the sun, it suddenly shot backwards and landed behind the building in the shape of a dinosaur.   There was one door and one window in the room in which I was standing.   The window allowed me to see what was going on in the back of the building.   So I walked over to the window (still holding my baby) and saw this dinosaur smashing buildings, making lots of noise, and chomping off the tops of some buildings as it made it's way around to the other side of the building I was in.   Now I had to go back over to the door to see what this monster was doing.   When I stood in the door this time, the dinosaur stopped in his tracks and turned into a "jackal".   (I can't really describe what type of animal it was.)   It was still standing up on it's hind legs, it's jaws were very square, it's face was almost feline.   So it stopped in it's tracks and looked directly at me.   In my head, I heard it say with a loud voice, "I SEE YOU!" while it simultaneously said out loud for everyone to hear, "I SAID THAT...".   That's when I woke up. (Read Luke 10:18)

"When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)" - Matt. 24:15
