MY CONVERSION DREAM
In early 1967 I experienced the following dream. It was in black and white and lasted for about 30 seconds. There was no voice, movement, or sound in the dream at all, but its effect on me was nothing more than life-changing. It came about 6.00am one weekday.
The figure on page 5 shows the dream. A circle, on the left hand side, of a stylised mountain, viewed from side on, with a five-pointed star surrounded it. Although the star was not moving in the dream, I instinctively knew it was “rising” and that it didn't have long before it would reach its zenith.
If someone were looking from the right-hand side of the mountain they wouldn't see the star. But since I was “seeing” it from a different perspective (side on) I understood that although still hidden from view, the star was rising and once at the summit would be manifest.
I knew from the position of the star that it would not be too long before it, and its accompanying power, would be fully revealed. There was a sense of dread about this.
From my side-on vantage I could also “see” the word R-E-P-E-N-T spelt out high in the sky, on the right hand side. This word couldn't actually be seen, but I knew it was there. It was large, emblazoned in the sky like a banner - but absolutely invisible. It was clearly a warning sign and a call to respond to its message.

I don't mean this in any sense of elitism at all, but for myself this means God was giving me the opportunity to respond to His season of grace and escape the awfulness of this evil power that is coming upon the earth.
My initial response to this dream calling for repentance (which literally means “ to change one’s mind and heart”) caused me to start attending Church.
Right from the beginning I understood that the encircled five-pointed star represented evil. Later I discovered it was a common satanic emblem.
In the years that followed the interpretation of
