UNBELIEF

Everyone sat out in the shade near the columns of Al Khazneh. The sun beat down unmercifully upon the area, and the sandstone was almost hot enough to cook upon.

Alfred prepared the vehicle he had brought with him. It was all the way back near the entrance to the Siq. They would have to ride out on one of the motorcycles that Jason and Chloe had come in on. Then they would make their way back to Jerusalem to break camp within the old sewage plant which had served as their base of operation for the past year.

Solomon hovered over Jason. “Are you sure you’re all right?”

“Yeah. I’ll just be a little sore for awhile, I guess.”

“Well, I’m glad you didn’t get the chance to kill me before we could talk. I really am very sorry to hear about Sarah. She was a good person.”

“Yeah…we were going to be married.” Jason choked out. “I guess going to meet you and hand over that disc was business she had to take care of first.”

There was a moment of uncomfortable silence. Jason had only sought out Solomon to kill him for Sarah’s death, but the fact was he simply wasn’t responsible. Sarah had become a Christian at some point, but it just didn’t make sense to him. Why would she have joined a terrorist group responsible for all manner of atrocities?

Jason looked at Solomon. “What was supposed to be on that disc, anyway?”

“Evidence. That was the proof we needed to clear our names as Christians. The world has been deceived concerning a great many things, Jason.”

“Yeah, like what?”

Max chimed in. “To start with, that disc contained the initial plans for the worldwide terrorist bombings that took place after the rapture of the church.”

“What plans? Christian plans?”

Solomon straightened. “No! Babylon’s plans. In particular, the plans that Oliver Theed put into action to frame the believers in Christ and establish a lie to explain away the rapture of God’s church.”

“Babylon was responsible for those attacks? I never heard of any such operation by Babylon.”

Solomon continued. “That’s because it was only supposed to be known by very few, Jason. Can you imagine what would happen to our good High Representative if the world learned the truth? He’d be sentenced to death, if some country’s mercenary didn’t get to him first. A lot of people were killed in those attacks and all for the purpose of blaming the Christians.”

“I know what happened in the attacks, but why in the world should I believe that Babylon or Theed had anything to do with it? And what is this rapture thing you keep referring to?”

“The rapture,” said Solomon, “is a word that means caught, or snatched away. This event was foretold in the Bible, a time when Christ would descend from heaven and meet his believers in the air. The dead in Christ were to rise first then those who were alive upon the earth would almost instantly follow—caught up to meet the Lord Jesus Christ in the atmosphere then return to Heaven with him.
