it was shocking for me to have such a night mare and it was years before i really understood what was happening to me. it turned out that i was frequented night mares when i was that young. the dream was about the pastor and his father-in-law who was also a member of the FULL GOSPEL MISSION. both he and the pastor were in a dark, hot place which resembled an underground cavern. the father of the pastor's wife was being chased around by the pastor who was burning him with this blow torch. i can still remember the blue flame which was coming out of it and i can remember the father-in-law's arms were burned off into stubbs. it seemed that every time he would stop and try to rest that the pastor would run upon him and start burning him more. i awoke in my crib there at the farm where we lived. it was out on a back road paved with gravel there in DEXTER. as i tell this story you will see the meaning of this frightful dream become apparent. as it involves child molestation and adultery. which ended up splitting our little church up. and hurt a lot of innocent people. because the pastor had cut a wide swathe through all of the teenaged girls he could get his hands on while the father-in-law although i never got the proof was involved in this too as there was pedophile activity going on there along with adultery and even homosexuality which eventually made me its unwilling victim.........right about that time the child beatings began to go on and became so severe that i thought i was going to be killed by my father. it was so harsh that for a couple of days my parents would not allow me to go to school. through all of this i began to develop compassion on the less fortunate than myself and got into some trouble over my defending a girl at school whom my mother called a little tramp.......more next time
