THE DAY THE TRUMPET SOUNDED

THE DAY THE TRUMPET SOUNDED,

BY MATTHEW LUCAS BECKETT

On January Thirteenth, 2010, The New Speaker's gavel came down so hard it nearly shattered both the gavel and his desk.
“We are here today,” he said. “To vote to repeal Obama Care, officially The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148) and and The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (P.L. 111-152) of 2010, the worst abuse of power and legislation of any kind ever conceived. Some have said since this repeal will almost certainly not pass The Senate and even if it did would be vetoed by President Obama and The Senate certainly lacks the votes to override his veto, that this vote is a waste of time. They are wrong. This legislation stops our economic recovery just as it is getting started and encroaches on States Rights and individual rights by forcing people to buy a product that not everyone needs. Our donors can pay medical bills out o pocket, and other people do not really matter. So, without delay, those in favor of repeal?”
The vote was an almost straight party line vote, although one Republican who was a medical specialist in emergency pediatric care voted against it, and a few Democrats from not all that liberal states voted for it. Then they sent it to The Senate, where the majority leader declared it dead on arrival and so that seemed to be the end of it.
After the other business of the day, everyone went home, feeling that they had done their job as elected and the new House Majority feeling that they had done what The American People had elected them to do, and so that they should just wait two more years and then this horrible legislation could actually be repealed.
It was a very strange night, however, for though there did not seem to be a cloud in the sky, over the entire country there was no light at all from moon or star, as if there was a great overcasting thunderstorm over the whole country, yet there was no storm at all or even any clouds at all. Because of this, it was a very fitful night for many, and particularly un-restful for those with young children, frightened by this sight and unable to get to sleep, or else waking screaming from horrible nightmares.
The next morning, though, was even stranger.
“I know I didn't sleep well,” said The Senate Minority leader. “But my brain has never been so tired that the sun looked blood red before.”
“It's not your eyes or your brain,” said his wife. “The sun is blood red. It even made the news.”
And she was right. The blood red sun was all over the morning TV. and radio news all over the country. Nor did thiss effect fade with dawn. The sun rode up the sky blood red throughout the morning,until high noon, when it was right at its apex at the very top of the sky, directly over Washington D.C. Then it turned midnight black as it began to sink towards the western horizon.
While all of this was happening, Congress continued in Session, The House passing a bill to end food stamps altogether and then to end welfare altogether, neither gaining any traction in the senate.
“But the people want our goods,” said The Speaker. “So after the next election, we can deliver.”
As the black sun sank towards the western horizon, suddenly there was a great sound.
“A thunderstorm, at last,” said a newly elected Tea Party Republican. “Man do we need the rain.”
But the sound went on much too long for a peel of thunder, and it was much too even, measured and regular as well.
Suddenly, it became clear to all that it was a trumpet. But not just any trumpet. Its sound came from the sky,and the whole world heard it at once. Suddenly, many realized what it was and fell to their knees or even prostrate in Prayer.
Then the sky itself split and crumbled, and a great light, brighter and more beautiful and terrible than any that any mortal eye had ever seen appeared over head around the world. The Light shone as pure light for some time, although time had now lost all meaning, so a count of the time was impossible and meaningless.
At length The Light descended towards the ground and took shape, forming a tremendous Throne, surrounded on all sides by Legions of Angels of pure light.
Upon The Throne sat The Son of GOD and Man, revealed in HIS Full Heavenly Glory. When HIS Throne reached the ground, He spoke one word, a Word of Great Glory and Power, and then all The Nations of The World were spread out before HIM, and HE began to separated them one from another, placing some upon HIS Right and some upon HIS left. The Nation of The United States of America HE placed upon HIS left, although many of The Sovereign Native American Nations which had lived within its boarders HE placed upon HIS Right. When all of the people had been placed in one group or another, HE turned to those on HIS Right.
“Come,” said THE KING. “You who are blessed by MY FATHER. Inherit The Kingdom prepared for you since The Creation of The World. For I was hungry and you fed ME. I was Thirsty and you gave ME drink. I was a stranger and you welcomed ME. I was naked and you clothed ME. I was sick and you took care of ME. I was imprisoned and you visited ME.”
The Righteous replied. “LORD, when did we see THEE hungry and feed THEE, thirsty and give THEE drink, a stranger and invite THEE in, naked and clothe THEE? And when did we THEE sick or imprisoned and come to THEE?”
THE KING replied, “Truly I tell you, whensoever you have done for the least of these brothers and sisters of MINE among you, so also you have done for ME.”
Then The Righteous entered THE LIGHT and were lost to the sight of those on THE SON OF GOD AND MAN'S left, whom HE then turned to.
“Depart from ME, you who are cursed,” HE said. “Into The Eternal Fire prepared for The Devil and His Angels. For I was hungry and you did not give ME food,, I was thirsty and you did not give ME drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome ME, I was naked and you did not clothe ME, I was sick or imprisoned and you did not come to ME.”
The Wicked Replied “LORD, when did we see THEE hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or imprisoned and did not take care of THEE?”
THE KING replied: “When you denied the least of those among you the chance to obtain food at a rate they could pay, you denied ME food. When you denied the least of those among you the right to have something to drink since they could not pay for it, you denied ME something to drink. When you chose to leave the stranger that was the least of those among you out in the cold and even subjected them to even worse treatment, you did all this to ME. When you denied the least of those among you the chance to be clothed when they could not pay for their own clothing, you denied clothing to ME when I was naked. When you sided against The Least of Those Among you having access to doctors and medical care as a right for ALL, you denied ME the Right to be cared for when sick. When you denied the least of those among you the right to be visited when imprisoned, even by strictly medical professionals, you denied the right to be visited when imprisoned to ME. GO, your Eternal Punishment awaits.”
Then The Wicked sank into the unquenchable and Eternal Flames and Eternal Absolute Darkness and Despair of Hell.

AND THUS SAETH THE LORD, ANDTHIS IS YOUR FINAL WARNING, CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IF SUCH A VOTE COMES SO DOES THE REST OF THIS PROPHECY, SO HEED THE WARNING ANDCONTACT THE HELL HOUNDS YOU SENT TO WASHINGTON D.C. ON NOVEMBER SECND, 2010, AND FIND A WAY TO CALL THEM OFF, OR THIS HAPPENS NEXT WEEK, THE WORD OF THE LORD.

SPOKEN THROUGH THE FINGERS OF MATTTHEW LUCASBECKETT, A PROPHET APPOINTED BY GOD, WHOSE NAME BE FOREVER BLESSED, IN THE FOREVER BLESSED NAME OF JESUS THE CHRIST, AMEN.
