Feeling shaken I stared out the window for a moment, until the peace and strength of the Holy Spirit came into me so much so that I boldly turned to the keeper of lies beside me and said, "In this upcoming disclosure to the other members of this expedition if you think I'm going to mince my words or only tell them half-truths you are sadly mistaken."
"No be honest with them. That's why we brought you. One of the reasons why anyway. It's vital to the success of the mission that everyone be able to comprehend the situation at hand out of a clear and rational understanding of reality. Any clouded reasoning could spell doom to the mission and that we cannot have."
I looked him over speculatively. Just what were they after?
What did they hope to steal from the dimensional plain below to further their New World Order plans for the surface above? Deciding on boldness I asked my thought, "What's down there that you want so badly?"
"As I said, unlimited power. The power to alter or make our own gateways so that we might escape this prison called Earth and the imposed limitations of time and space we are all locked up in. It's this we will sell to the masses. Freedom. True freedom."
Shaking my head I asked, "And you think they'll buy that?"
"They did once."
"How very true. Look how that's turning out for you though. Do you really wish to risk it happening again?"
"We have no choice, but I am convinced that we will be successful this time. People will have no choice, but to fall in line with the new order of things if they wish to survive."
"And what of people like me? People who will never take an oath to any new endeavor of mankind that lies outside of what was ordained for us of God."
He shrugged and said, "You would be fools not to go along with us. We are this close to unlocking the mysteries of everything and when we do there will be no more need for the God you serve. I ask you plainly why would you rather be a servant when you could be the master?"
"Why can you not be content with the blessed future of all that has been promised to those who believe in and serve God?" I countered with.
"Because I'd rather be in control and beyond the bounds of any law." Was his clipped reply.
"Lawless you want to be, but you pass by the realization that all that is in existence only came about because of the law of God's word. Those words will never pass away and who am I a created being to say to my Creator, 'Why have You made me thus?' You would put yourself as equal with your Maker but the truth is you did not create yourself and while you may possess the ability to clone the flesh, the spirit is of the breath of God. All man can do is create a habitation for something already in existence. Why do you delude yourself into thinking that you can make anything new?"
