Hello,

Thanks for your supportive comments. I believe we all may witness these prophetic events in our lifetime. No one wants to endure tribulation, but those who are wise will be ready and be “bright and shining lights in the ensuing darkness”.

In Messiah's (Christ's) grace,

Here's how the "bright and shining lights" thing happens, and you don't need to wait for Tribulation.

According to his Captain, my friend the pilot of a Marine Corps med-evac helicopter, stayed steady and controlled his ship as it plummeted down in a jungle after it was disabled by NVA/VC fire.

According to the Captain, more of the people on board lived than would have been the case had he not done the same thing as he died.

Gooie Gomez, one of the fellows well known to Viet Nam Vets on FR, was his flying crew chief.

Gooie, if you read the write-ups about him, seemed to walk about the site of exceedingly violent battlefields just picking up wounded soldiers and carrying them to the helicopter for evacuation.

I envisioned Gooie as an Angel.
