CHAPTER TWO - The Second Dream

Gene Winkler, the pastor of New Covenant Fellowship, experienced the second dream. It is with this fellowship that my wife Joan and I worship.

In his own words, this is Gene's dream from the first part of January, 2002.

"There were at least three of us in the car, my wife Jena, Lindy,our youngest daughter and myself. There may have been others in the car but the three of us were there for sure."

"We were in Westlake, seemingly at the south end of Guillory Street. It was approaching evening, with the appearance of dusk. Lindy, then commented that the moon was rising.

At that time, everything began to speed up. It was almost as if we were experiencing a "fast - forward" movement of not only the rising of the "moon" but the total passage of time as well."

"It was getting lighter outside but not as bright as the day would be. Rather quickly, we realized that it was not the moon that we saw but what appeared to be a meteor. The object seemed to hit somewhere in the vicinity of Westlake High School but out of our sight."

"We then saw what looked similar to a boulder that was about twenty feet in diameter. This object was not perfectly round but had distinct sides for it's outward shape."

"The first boulder that we saw was not rolling toward us but was going in more of a westerly direction. Then, I saw another object coming straight toward us. This too, had the general appearance of a boulder. I would like to mention that the "meteor" that we saw was much larger than either of these two subsequent objects that were each approximately twenty feet in diameter."

"The second object rolled up on the top of our car. Because I was concerned about the roof caving in, I found myself with my hands over my head pressing upward on the roof of the car. The object remained on the roof for just an instant and then began to roll toward the front of the car."

"Seeing this, my first reaction was that it would break the windshield. Then, I saw that there was no windshield. The glass was completely gone! As the "boulder" continued to roll toward the front of the car, it changed shape and composition. It was now made up of huge insect - like creatures. They were black in color with large teeth. Not fangs but large teeth."

"I tried to shield us from these demonic creatures with my forearm and was able to push one of them away. Then another demon latched onto my thumb with its teeth. I was instantly aware that I felt no pain."

"It was at this point that I began to try to rebuke the creatures. My actions seemed to be taking on the characteristics of being in a dream. In fact, I found it extremely difficult to say the name of Jesus. Once I was able to verbalize the rebuke, the demons immediately vanished."
