It is also located at <http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Acropolis/1009/dream.html> Any discernment is welcome. It has been a while since having this, and I've been on your mailing list since near the beginning, but only now do I send this. You may post at your discretion since it doesn't speak of Hebrew Roots. ________________________________________________________________ This dream occurred to me in early December 1996. This dream was very realistic, such that when I awoke, I thought about it constantly for days on end. The fact that I was given the interpretation of this dream while still in it, was the first time that this has ever happened to me. I was told that the interpretation was identical to the Joseph/Pharoah dream recorded in Genesis, except that the number of animals was different. If you have any additional insights or have had anything similar to this, let me know. I was in a farm field, with a farmer, and there was this really big cow (1996), laying in the grass. This cow looked as if its side was ripped open and for some reason I knew that the underside was in the same condition. However, the far side was not ripped open. I knew this cause I asked the farmer why the rip wasn't the whole way through, and he replied that if it was, the cow would die. I asked the farmer what was wrong, and he replied that the cow was sick. Next, I was standing right in front of the large hole in the cow's side, and out walked a perfectly healthy, normal size cow (1997), (not a calf). As I peeked inside the cow, a very skinny, malnutritioned cow (1998), came walking out. I then stuck my head inside of the cow, and saw that it was hazy, and sinews were everywhere. Then what looked like a lamb, with goat's horns came out. I thought immediately (while dreaming), that this was the false prophet, but then I tried to tell myself it wasn't. **What made this so weird was that it seemed I was interpreting it while I was dreaming, and told that it has the same interpretation of the Joseph/Pharoah dream in Genesis.*** I don't recall for sure if there was one, but it seems that there was a small calf, that was still in the cow. Next, I was standing inside the cow, with the farmer, and I realized that the cow was indeed alive, but there was a room inside, I remember feeling that this huge cow was a deception. The farmer proceeded (while still inside) to the neck and shoulder area. I then observed that the cow was supported with concrete blocks and a board across the top. The farmer was saying something, I can't remember, but I remember that I was amazed that this cow was alive, with all of this inside of it. The cow was basically hollow, except for the sinews hanging around. I then looked at the neck area (still in the cow), it was covered with some sort of cloth (almost looked like a potato sack type material). As soon as I starred at it, I could see blood seeping through from the neck area. I then woke up. To me, it was very unusual. Anyway, immediately upon waking, I started thinking about this dream, and immediately thought of Joseph. I was told the huge, hollow cow was this year (1996), since I was standing in it. 1996 would be a very plentiful year, as it has indeed turned out to be. The next cow, was normal, so I thought that next year would be a normal year, good but not exceptional. So far, the gains and increases although setting new records, do not match those of 1996. Though we are still early into the year, I expect some type of slowing down to occur, but not anything drastic. The next, cow was very skinny and scrawny, so I thought that this was the beginnig of something very ominous. I feel that 1998 will prove to be a very bad year, both economically and morally, there may be some type of major natural (or un-natural for that matter) disaster that will occur. This is not to say that the tribulation will indeed start, but I won't be surprized. I expect a recession to start, though this was not directly given to me in the dream. NEXT came the lamp with goat horns, I didn't think this represented a year, and I can't forget the sensation that this was the false prophet, but I equally can't forget the sensation that I wanted to tell myself it wasn't. The key to this sensation is that I wanted to not believe this was happening, not didn't believe it was happening. If the antichrist does arise in 1998, his deception will indeed live up to the prophecy laid out in the Bible, such that even the very elect could be deceived. His arrival will be very subtle at first. The rest, I felt just described the deception, except for the bleeding neck, I can't figure this out. The fact that the cow was sick, led me to believe that there is something very ominous, a type of sign, that would be connected to this year (1996). You can take your pick here, there were comets, lunar eclipses, a variety of natural disasters, etc. In Yahshua's Care, Tony Valasek **********************************************************************
