Yahweh’s Youngest Oracle

In his dream-state, he wandered around a beautiful meadow. He heard a soft voice calling his name. ‘Jude,’ it called. ‘Jude, son of Joseph the carpenter, come to my voice. You are a special boy, borne from a special family. We must talk.’

Jude looked around and followed the sound of this stranger’s voice.  He found a cave and cautiously entered. When he found his way to a larger room, he saw a beautiful being that did not look like a man or a woman. They had large, golden wings with white and golden robes. ‘Hello Jude,’ the being said with a soft smile. ‘I know you have had vivid dreams before, but I believe it is time for you to know that they are not simple dreams.’

‘What do you mean?’ the boy asked. ‘Who are you?’

‘I am Gabriel, an Archangel sent by Yahweh. You are a special young man. You may have heard of prophets that have spoken to him or me in the past. While they were special in their own right, you are from a bloodline that has been blessed by a being even higher than Yahweh. I want to reassure you though, that this being is not a false idol. He is simply a powerful creature who wants to help the humans that live in this world.’

‘I don’t understand, my bloodline? Does this have to do with my mother’s family? My father said that he died when I was born and that her family had only been of one or two children.’

Gabriel nodded with a small frown. ‘Yes, it is both a curse and a blessing. They are meant to be born to guide humanity to where they are meant to be. Yahweh has always said that he was the one true God and that all others were false. However, he has only now decided to come clean and admit, at least to a select few, that he was wrong. Humans of your world create their own mythology, and deities have always clashed against one another ever since. The Roman Gods have always wanted to overthrow various civilizations and replace their deities with their own. 

‘The last time this happened, the Greek Gods fought back with the help of this higher being. After a child of their God of war was born, she began to act as an immortal who keeps her family connected to this Earth. Next, came the Egyptian Gods with the son of Horus. Now, it is Yahweh’s turn. As you are descended from this bloodline, you are to be the one to guide the child that he will have. He will be born as your younger brother whose name will be Yeshua.’

‘My younger brother? I do not understand, my father is not Yahweh.’

‘No, but Yahweh has blessed him on the night of his wedding to Mary. While Yeshua will look exactly like your father, and in turn you, his essence will be half of Yahweh and half human. The fact this child will look like you is a blessing that you will only know the truth of later in life. As of now, you are too young to know the entirety of your brother’s fate. All I ask is for you to always protect him no matter what happens. Once he is born the Roman Gods will stop at nothing to ensure that this boy is killed by putting doubt and fear in the minds of their followers. All I can tell you is that they can only stop for good after your death.’

Jude gasped and backed away from Gabriel. His death? ‘Do not fear, child,’ the angel insisted. ‘This will not happen until over thirty years. By then, you will understand how and why this is the case. For now, you must protect your little brother. Guide your father and Mary by following your instincts, and follow the signs that Yahweh and myself give you in your waking hours.’

Jude was shaking a little but nodded. ‘Yes, I promise that I will keep the faith and protect him with all that I have.’

Gabriel nodded with a smile before a bright light illuminated the room.
