The six images revealed. 01/31/17
Revelation 22:13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
This picture would not be complete if it did not contain the image of Christ. In this case the image of Jesus’ face. In August 2005 hurricane Katrina, a level 5 hurricane with winds of 174 mph hit the Gulf coast. It was the costliest natural disaster ever and one of the most five deadliest hurricanes in U.S. history with 1836 souls lost. In the wake of Katrina’s destruction the small city of Pass Christian MS was absolutely decimated. Pass Christian is located 33 mile east of New Orleans LA. Hoping to help in some way, my son and I signed up for a one week mission trip sponsored by our church Southeast Christian. On Sept. 2-2005 my son Austin and I and 22 other volunteers left for Pass Christian. I brought Jeff’s photo with me in hopes that it might instill some hope and encouragement to anyone who saw it. To obtain maximum exposure of Jeff’s picture I posted it on the menu / read board located at the beginning of the food serving line. Early in the week while I was having dinner a young lady came up to me and ask “Is that picture on the read board yours?” I responded, “Yes,” then she says, “Have you seen it, have you noticed the image of Jesus’ face?” I said, “No, please sit down and show me.” Having another picture with me in my satchel I took it out and placed it in front of Mary. Again, I should mention that the image of his face is difficult to make out but it is definitely one of the seven images contained in the picture. Mary pointed to the bottom right corner of the photo to the group of trees at the end of the taxiway. Just about midway within the line of trees as you look left to right you can see bands of light that almost make a complete circle? Mary pointed to the brightest band of light and said, “These three bands of light, the bright one and the other two faint ones that go downward define the top of his head and the left and the right sides of his face.” The features of his face are within these light bands. The image of his face is tilted to the right in relation to the angle of the brightest light band.” (This may help you see his image) Mary continues, “If you look closely within these three light bands you can see areas of dark shades of green and lighter shades of green…just below the brightest band of light you can see lighter shades of green that makeup his forehead, his nose and his right and left cheek.” Mary, “The darker shades of green define the left and right sides of his face, his eyes and his mouth and chin.” Mary comments, “Once you realize this, Jesus’ face will appear! Mary then comments, “Now that I have pointed out how to see his image to you, I’m wondering could the brightest band of light represent Christ’s crown of thorns?”
Daddy, daddy come here! 5/15/17
One night my son’s best friend Brent came to the house so they could work on a joint home work assignment. Having to use my computer it wasn’t long after Brent arrived that they headed upstairs to begin there work. For a period of time I had selected Jeff’s angel picture as my screen saver and as a result Austin had seen the picture many times. This night as he turned on my computer things would be very different. As soon as my computer booted up Austin hollered downstairs, “Daddy, daddy come here!” I responded, “What?” Austin, “Come here!” I said, “A please would go a long way with your request.” Austin, “OK, please come here.” As soon as I stepped into the office Austin in an excited voice said, “It’s your name.” I said, “What, Austin said again, “It’s your name.” I said, “Where, show me where you see that.” As he pointed to the bottom middle of the picture he traced over the pattern of light that clearly looks like the letter R, then near the left edge of the tree line he traced over a more faint pattern of light which is the letter a, last he traces over the very prominent light pattern which looks like the letter y. The vertical part of the letter y has a very bright ball of light at the top. Austin says, “Dad, don’t you see it, plain as day it’s your name R-a-y.” I responded, “My lord, yes I see it, but I don’t understand why it’s there.” “I have had this picture for 3 years and have looked at it countless times, but I have never noticed my name.”
Wise men know angels exist. 03/02/17
On another occasion while at work a good friend of mine Lonni Schewit ask if he could see Jeff’s picture. Lonni had seen the angel picture before and he was aware of the other images that previous people had seen. After two or three minutes Lonni said, “I see a wise man.” I said, “Where, point it out to me.” In the image that looks like a church just under the corners of the bands of light that define the roof Lonni points to the two dark clouds that are to the left and right of the pattern of light shaped like an oval, Lonni said, “These are his eyes.” Next Lonni points to the pattern of light that is shaped liked an oval and remarks, “This looks like it could be a nose.” And finally, Lonni follows the two curved patterns of light that go downward and to the right stopping at the hanger. He states, “This looks like a mustache/go-tee to me. When I look at these features as a whole I see a wise man."
Church, you might see an angel. 01/31/17
Some days I would take my writings and Jeff’s picture into work with me. One day while I still had the picture on top of my desk a good friend of mine, Dennis Serber asks me, “Ray, that picture is very intriguing, what is it?” I handed the picture to Dennis and proceeded to tell him about the events of Jeff’s jump in which he almost died. I mentioned and pointed out within the picture where the angel, the Alpha and Omega symbol and the image of Jeff himself was located. I then asked Dennis, “If you will, look at the picture for a minute and tell me if you see any other images.” After several minutes Dennis said, “Oh, I…I see a Church.” Dennis starts by pointing to the point of light just below the bottom of the halo. With his pointing finger he touches the picture and he moves his finger over the pattern of light that goes down and to the left. He stops his motion on Jeff’s left shoulder. Next, he goes back to the point of light and moves his finger over the band of light that goes down and to the right stopping in the middle of the cloud bank. Dennis said, “This is the roof.” Again, Dennis points back to the band of light from Jeff’s left shoulder and he motions down and slightly to the right stopping at the aircraft, he comments, “This is the left wall.” Next, he positions his finger at the end of the bright band of light which ends in the middle of the cloud bank; then he follows the faint band of light downward and slightly to the right and stops just above the taxiway and says, “This is the right wall.” Then, he points to the bright pattern of light that looks like an oval and says, “This is the front door.” Finally, Dennis follows the two curved patterns of light that go downward and to the right stopping at the hanger. He states, “These are the steps…It looks like a church to me.” This picture is amazing because it holds so much more than the prominent image of the angel. Now with Dennis seeing the image of the church there are four images / figures that have been noticed by different people. There are two more amazing images to be revealed.
Great save angel, great save! 12/31/16
On the day of my jump as I was preparing to leave I thanked Jeff for all of his training and for one of the most exciting and exhilarating events I had ever experienced. I also ask him if he would please, please send me a copy of the angel picture as soon as he could. As soon as I saw Jeff’s picture I felt it was angelic and I was mesmerized by all of the patterns of light. I wasn’t sure what I planned to do with his picture, but I did promise him that I would never sell it for profit because it was copyright protected. Well, on 22 July 05 I received the picture from Jeff as he had promised. It didn’t take me long to come up with the title, "SkydivingAngelsavesSkydiver.” The purpose of this writing is to assist you (if you haven’t already seen it) in seeing the contact between Jeff and his angel. Soon after receiving the picture another concentration of light patterns which captured my attention were the light bands above and below the oval shape of light in the middle left part of the picture. I knew these light patterns were significant and important in relation to the angel saving Jeff but I couldn’t make out an image that made sense to me. I looked at this area of the picture day after day week after week but I just couldn’t see the image as it existed because I was not mentally placing what I felt was the image of Jeff in the correct orientation. My older sister Edy is a very spiritual person and I knew if she saw the picture she could help me see Jeff’s image. But, I held off mailing it to her because of the copyright protection. Well, three weeks turned into four and I still had not seen Jeff’s image which I knew existed some where in the picture. So I called Edy, told her the history of the picture and told her not to give anyone a copy. She called me the same day she received the picture. When I answered the phone she said, “Honey, don’t you see it, don’t you see it?” I responded, “No that’s why I sent it to you.” She said, “You identified the position of Jeff’s head and arms correctly (his arms are positioned downward toward the aircraft) but, the bright bands of light from his head going upward to the center of the halo is the angel holding on to him, until he is safely on the ground". Edy continues, “See the light pattern just above the hanger that looks like an R,” I respond, “Yes,” “Those light patterns are his hips and his legs,” I responded, “God , I see it, yes I see it.” Edy continues, “Now look between Jeff’s head and his hips, do you see the two small clouds that are dark in the middle then turn lighter at the top?” I said, “Yes,” Edy remarked, “They not only define his torso and back but they complete Jeff’s image.” I told my sister, ‘I knew you could help me see his image, thank you so much.” Three prominent images have now been noticed in Jeff’s picture. With all of the other light patterns contained in the picture I’m sure more will be recognized.
There’s more than just the angel! 11/30/16
One of the most important images in the picture was one that was pointed out to me. Because I saw the image of the angel first I guess my mind stayed focused on the angel and that kept me from seeing the possibilities of what other images the light patterns might be. The light patterns making up the point of light inside the halo then extending down to the left and to the right also look like the letter A. Again, I thought these light patterns formed the main body of the angel. This is probably the most significant image within the picture but I didn’t know what it represented, until Sept. 2005. In August 2005 hurricane Katrina, a level 5 hurricane with winds of 174 mph hit the Gulf coast. It was the costliest natural disaster ever and one of the most five deadliest hurricanes in U.S. history with 1836 souls lost. In the wake of Katrina’s destruction the small city of Pass Christian MS was absolutely decimated. Pass Christian is located 33 mile east of New Orleans LA. Hoping to help in some way, my son and I signed up for a one week mission trip sponsored by our church Southeast Christian. On Sept. 2-2005 my son Austin and I and 22 other volunteers left for Pass Christian. I brought Jeff’s photo with me in hopes that it might instill some hope and encouragement to anyone who saw it. During the third day of the trip while I was having dinner another volunteer who was serving as one of the cooks sat down beside me. It short order we introduced our selves and I took particular notice that his name was Gabriel, soon there after he asked, “That picture of yours on the read board, what in the world is that?” Having another photo with me in my satchel I got it out and placed it in front of us. I told Gabriel the entire story as Jeff had told it to me and that Jeff took the picture immediately after he landed. If you haven’t done so you can read the details about Jeff’s jump on slide two and three of my power point presentation. During the entire time I was telling the story Gabriel was studying the picture intently. Right after I finished with my story Gabriel says in an excited voice, “Oh my God it’s the Alpha and Omega.” I said, “Where, show me exactly.” With his finger he encircles the angels halo, emphasizes the point of light within the halo and follows down and around the large A and he says again, “God, this is how I have seen the relationship portrayed concerning the Alpha and Omega that is Jesus.” I replied, “Jeff’s picture just keeps getting better and better, I have a feeling Jeff’s angel has much more to show us.” I was so focused on the image of the angel that I failed to consider other possibilities.” Later that night as I was trying to go to sleep I gave a lot of thought to the complete meaning of Jeff’s picture and why the light images of what I always perceived as the body of the angel was perceived by Gabriel as a figure meaning Jesus is the Alpha and Omega .” Revelations 22:13 - I am the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Now, as I gave more thought to the information Gabriel had mentioned I began to realize that God’s creation of angels are but a small part of his immutability, omniscient and omnipresence that is the Alpha and Omega. God created the angels just prior to the creation of mankind because one of their duties is to be “ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation.” Hebrews 1:14 - In relation to the creation of the earth and mankind angels have always been. Several verses in Revelations indicate that angels will be present in the end times. Now I understand why the symbol of Alpha and Omega that Gabriel realized was also the same bands of light that I perceived as the body of the angel. The miraculous picture that Jeff captured is not only the angel that saved him but more importantly is the angel referenced in Revelation 14:6. Revelation 14:6… Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth – to every nation, language and people.
First of six images. 10/31/16
As soon as I saw Jeff’s picture I quickly saw the image of the angel that saved him. If you look at the top left portion of the picture you can see three quarters of a circle of light. Having faith that the circle of light completes itself just off the top of the picture allows me to believe this is the angel’s halo. Notice within the bottom part of the halo there is a sharp point of light. Now notice the predominant bands of light that extend downward to the left and downward to the right. I have always believed this to be the body and shape of the angel. Remember angel’s move at the speed of light and that is what we are seeing here, images of light that made up the event of the angel saving Jeff. There were seven people in the staging area when Jeff took this picture and none of them saw any of the light patterns and images with the naked eye. Two times Jeff raised his camera to the West-Northwest and saw none of the bright lights. Only when Jeff took the picture then looked at his view finder did the bright lights become visible but were not seen with the naked eye. Remember, Jeff’s angel wanted its picture to be taken. This is the reason the bands of light and images were still present several minutes after the exact moment Jeff was saved and up to the moment he took the picture. We contrive and believe that angels have wings and I believe you can make them out in the picture. Please look to the right side of the halo and midway up you will clearly see an arching wisp of light. Could this be the angel’s left wing? The angel’s right wing is much harder to make out but I do believe you can see it. Midway up the left side of the halo can you see a very faint band of light that arcs upward then turns almost straight down? In our construction of angels we believe them to have wings and while this is by far not the most prominent feature of Jeff’s picture I believe you can make them out.
