The Encounter: Paradise Lost Page #5

that one day he would come

into a relationship

with me.

New life in me.

Bring him back, please.

Chris, I can bring him back.

But if you could see

what he's seeing now,

if you could feel

what he's feeling,

you wouldn't even dream

of calling him back

to this fallen world,

not even for a second

And I guarantee you,

if you put your faith in me,

you'll be reunited with

Timothy forever... there.

I will.

I will.

III:

So sorry I haven't

been there for you.

Can you forgive me?

Only if you can

forgive me.

Thank you, Lord.

It's nice to hear

you call me Lord again.

Don't lose it.

I have so much in store

for you both.

Oh, now ain't that sweet?

Yes, it is.

I worry about you.

Haven't you ever felt

there was something missing

in your life?

Nothing he can offer me.

Amen.

Don't you find it odd

to find yourself

in agreement

with Charlie?

Not on that.

Charlie Doles.

Shut up!

I don't need you reading back

a list of my so-called sins.

Let's just stick to the first

man I killed:
Dwayne Weiss.

You were 15 years old.

Yeah, and if

you know that much,

then you know the

last words he spoke.

"Please, God, don't. "

He called me God.

He wasn't

referring to you.

Oh, yeah?

You sure about that?

I was the only man in

that room with the power

to let him live

or let him die.

Isn't that what being

God is all about?

Having the power

over life and death?

Bruno used to be a great

god until he got weak

and started

being merciful,

letting people live

who should have died.

And that's why we're in

this situation we're in now

You're in this

situation you are now

because I wanted to give you

another chance at salvation.

Don't you worry about me.

You worry about yourself.

Don't Charlie.

Put the gun down.

No.

I've had enough of you.

You give me your gun.

Give me your gun now.

Now give me the bag.

Didn't have to happen

this way, Bruno.

Yes, it did.

I couldn't go through

with the deal, Charlie.

Those days are over.

I'm going with him.

You're crazy.

You're gonna spend the rest

of your life in jail.

Maybe.

But I don't think our Lord

would lead us astray.

Maybe I have to go

to jail to be free.

It would be

a small price to pay.

Your will be done.

What happened

to you, man?

Ric-

The moment has come.

For what?

For you to decide if you're

going to follow my will

to eternal life

or your own to destruction.

I think you know

the answer.

Would it affect

your answer to know

that Michelle is with me?

Her tragic cause of death didn't

mean that she wasn't saved

Michelle accepted

that for herself

when she was

Now she stands in the very

presence of Father God himself.

Her face glows with

joy and contentment

beyond comprehension.

I want you to

see her there.

If you surrender to me

and my will,

you will spend

eternity with her.

Helen accepted me

as a child.

Today she was joined by

Chris, Mimi, even Bruno.

Michelle was killed

by a heroin overdose,

but I promise you

hatred kills more people

every year than heroin.

And it's the hardest

drug of all to kick.

But I'll help you do it

if you embrace my love.

Never

Sorry, Bruno.

Are you gonna be okay?

No, Mimi.

I'm not gonna make it.

Baby...

I love you.

I love you too.

It's gonna

be okay, Mimi.

I'd rather die today

and live with you forever

than go on the way

we were going.

I'm happy-

Bruno...

III:

Don't worry, Bruno.

I'll take care of her.

Stay down, Caperna.

I'm gonna send you

to meet your sister.

Ric.

Hey.

Great work, man.

Thanks.

You'll never believe this, but

Bruno actually kept a notebook.

Has everything in it.

His suppliers, his customers,

old corrupt ofcials

in like a dozen

different countries.

It's gonna keep a lot of people

busy for a very long time.

Are you up to

leading the team?

It sounds like fun.

I'm gonna have a lot

of fun with this one.

Ha, ha.

You had a lot

of fun with Bruno, too,

but he came to me.

So did Helen

and Chris and Mimi.

Everywhere they go,

they'll spread my love

and shine a cleansing light

in your darkness.

It's not over yet.
