“And afterward,
   I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
   your old men will dream dreams,
   your young men will see visions. 
Even on my servants, both men and women,
   I will pour out my Spirit in those days. (Joel 2:28-29, NIV)

 

In 1996 I had this dream:

.

I was by the foot of a small hill. A team of archeologists had said they had found the tomb of Jesus at the foot of the small hill. The archeologists had made a documentary which had been on the BBC. They appeared confident it was the tomb of Jesus, and as they appeared confident to people it seemed that it was the tomb of Jesus and that that was the end of it. Terror gripped my soul - surely Jesus could not be in the tomb as he had risen from the dead.
I was reading about the resurrection of Jesus in the gospel of Mark. It was at the beginning of chapter 16 that I was reading. I was reading verse 3. I had read from the beginning of the chapter. Mark's words were in a strange light and seemed to be holy words. I was aware I was reading holy words. As I was reading the holy words, I was aware of a church vibe and that the words in Mark about the resurrection of Jesus were holy from the point of view of the church. The church vibe was different from the Jesus vibe. I wondered if the words Mark had written about the resurrection were holy words aside from from the perspective of a church vibe. I felt foolish as I believed Mark was a holy man and I was reading something special that the holy man had written about the resurrection of Jesus. I was concerned that I felt foolish as I believed that. I considered the feeling of foolishness may mean it was foolish to believe that Mark was a holy man - I noticed that felt sensible. I wondered why it could be foolish to believe that Mark was a holy man and that his words about the resurrection of Jesus were holy words. I was aware that no-one was holy but God - that felt very sensible. (I felt foolish as) I believed Mark was a holy man because he was a friend of Jesus and was one of the 12 disciples and had written the gospel of Mark. I was quietly aware that Mark was not one of Jesus' disciples. I felt foolish as I considered that the feeling of foolishness was some kind of embarrassment which was wrong and which I should counter by continuing to believe that Mark was a holy man, and I felt foolish as continued to believe that Mark was a holy man. I wondered if there was some hidden meaning in the holy man Mark's words about the resurrection of Jesus. I was aware there was something strange. I was aware there was a hidden meaning to the women discussing who would roll the stone away from the tomb in Mark 16:3. In John, only Mary Magdelene went to the tomb. It seemed strange in Mark 16:3 that the women were discussing who would roll the stone away from the tomb while on their way to the tomb. As I read about the resurrection of Jesus in the gospel of Mark, I understood what the words meant.  

I was reading about the resurrection of Jesus in the gospel of Mark. Mark's words were in a strange light and seemed to be holy words. It seemed I was reading holy words. I was aware there was something strange about the words. I was now reading further on in chapter 16. As I read, I wondered if there was a hidden meaning. I was aware there was a hidden meaning to the young man at the tomb, which would become apparent when I got to Mark 16:8. As I read about the resurrection of Jesus in the gospel of Mark, I understood what the words meant. When I got to Mark 16:8, I was angry. As I understood what the words meant, I was angry. Mark 16:8 was the last verse of the gospel of Mark.  In Mark 16:8 the gospel ended with the women telling no-one, so the witness who recounted the resurrection in Mark was the young man at the tomb. It was intended to be believed that the young man at the tomb was the author and was Mark. Mark was the only witness who could recount what had happened as the women had told nobody. Other than Jesus, the hero of the gospel of Mark was Mark, yet as the gospel of Mark attacked Jesus by contradicting what happened, and was written by someone who did not believe in Jesus, the hero of the gospel of Mark from the athiests' perspective - and the gospel of Mark was written by an athiest author, it was written by an athiest as the author did not believe in Jesus - was Mark . The author was also an athiest in the conventional sence. It was apparent to me the author was an athiest - I couldn't explain how I knew but I knew. It was the same as I knew what colour the sky was. When the sky was blue I could see it was blue, when there were clouds I could see there were clouds. The resurrection account in Mark was an athiest attack. As I read about the resurrection of Jesus in the gospel of Mark, I understood what the words meant. When I got to Mark 16:8, I was angry. I realised with regard to what Mark had written about the resurrection of Jesus that Mark, as in whoever wrote the words in Mark about the resurrection of Jesus, was not a holy man but the reverse. Whoever wrote the words in Mark about the resurrection of Jesus was attacking Jesus.

Mark 16:8 was verse 666 as the gospel of Mark had 666 verses. That had not been known to me. I would soon discover that the gospel of Mark had 666 verses. It was quiet in this dream that the gospel of Mark had 666 verses and I would not remember it. Tonight, due the recollection this dream but without remembering that the gospel of Mark had 666 verses, I would count the number of verses in the gospel of Mark and find there were 666.
I was on the outskirt of a desert town by which John stood holding a scroll, about to give his testiminy. John was wearing a cloak. Suddenly from behind John, Mark came rushing out infront of John, raising a large cloud of dust, to give his testimony instead of John. There was a lot of dust and turmoil, and between me and John was a clear area. Amidst the turmoil, John stood firm and looked me in the eye. John was looking at me as if to say, "Did you see that!", making sure I'd got what had happened. Mark had turned into his name in big thick block capital letters which were slowly descending: MARK

MARK - as in the person who wrote the resurrection account in Mark - was going to hell.

MARK  - as in the gospel of Mark - was descending into hell, then stabilized and was benign. The gospel of Mark was the mark of the beast but stabilized and became benign as people acknowledged it was the mark of the beast. I had not known that the gospel of Mark was the mark of the beast but it was quietly in this dream. The gospel of Mark was dragging people to hell. It was by attacking the resurrection of Jesus. I saw the gospel of Mark subsequently became safe. As people accepted and acknowledged the gospel of Mark was the mark of the beast, the gospel of Mark was safe.
