Pastor Jim's Story Of The Orbss Of Light

Improved Essays
Pastor Jim didn’t seem very enthusiastic about it. He told him, there is no mention in the Bible about orbs of light. The Pastor reminded him of what it says in, 2nd. Corinthians 11:14.
“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.”
At home alone, he decided to get to the bottom of it. At his own request, his doctor arranged for him to see a psychiatrist. The doctor suggested to him.
“Since you suffer from P.T.S.D., you could be reliving flares.”
It was a reasonable explanation, but it didn’t quite fit. The next time it happened, he would pay closer attention. He didn’t have to wait long.
That night a golden orb appeared. He saw it clearly and it looked nothing like a flare. Usually, in the field, flares come in red,

If the living beings stopped, the wheels stopped. If the wheels went into the air, the living beings went with them, because the spirit was in the wheels.”
His investigation started to bear fruit. Here was circles, orbs. The color, yellow was even mentioned. Other translations described the circles as gold. Both colors Tank had experienced. What he had not experienced was any living beings, until he realized.
It did say that when the living beings moved the wheels, the circles moved with them. Wherever Tank went in the apartment, the orbs went with him. However, he saw no creatures in the lights. Further, the appearances were very brief. Ezekiel’s experience seemed to have a longer duration.
He took the chance and read some other published reports on orbs of light. There he discovered that both the church and the New Age were full of opinions. He was very careful in everything he read not to accept any evil explanation.

    Book Arrangement: When Britain was in danger and distress during World War II, the country’s radio stations called upon Clive Staples Lewis to deliver a simple, earnest message concerning the Christian faith to the despairing population. The broadcasts were well received, and Lewis later published these talks as three separate works: Broadcast Talks (1942), Christian Behavior (1943), and Beyond Personality (1944). Eventually, Lewis merged the trio into a single body: Mere Christianity. This piece housed a preface, a foreword, and four distinct “books” that each targeted a separate portion of Christian theology. Prior to the primary reading, the Preface described Lewis’s process of transposing his spoken words into written text, and the Foreword provided Kathleen Norris’s favorable view of both the book and author.…

Most of the confidences were unsought- frequently I have feigned sleep, preoccupation, or a hostile levity when I realized by some unmistakable sign that an intimate revelation was quivering on the horizon.” (pg 1) When I first read this quote I thought that maybe Nick was just talking about some random men that he had met during his time in Long Island, but now I realize one of these “wild” men must have been Gatsby.…

    Literary figures are able to transcend the pages of the stories they are written into, and shed new light on themes and ideas within the work. Mary Shelley’s use of imagery as a figure throughout the novel Frankenstein is symbolic of both human progress, as well as the dangers of human invention, which helps to give the novel its own source of life, energy and suspense. In using light as a literary figure, Shelley creates an analysis of the definition of life, concluding that life is not simply the operations of the physical body or the sum of its parts; a more vital principle must first be included.
