Interview with Devlin Cole from "Cameras Don't Lie"
I wanted to know from Devlin why Adam, such a kind man, who
only seemed to have love to give and healings to perform, was causing such a
stir in Spring Manor and who was threatening him. This is the transcription of that
meeting.
Devlin:
“There was no way that He wasn’t going to cause a stir. I mean, He was talking about a touchy subject
and He wasn’t letting up. He was
changing peoples’ hearts and He was making an impact on the residents of Spring
Manor. He spent many hours talking to
the people at His favourite spot in the park, that old park bench. I grew to love it just as much.”
Lynne:
“But I still don’t get it.
What was so wrong with that that He was threatened to stop?”
Devlin:
“From the outset He caused a stir. Perhaps if I tell you where it all started,
you’ll understand a little better. Shall
I?”
Lynne:
“Yes, please do.”
Devlin:
“Well as you know I have my studio in The Vine Shopping Mall
and this was where I first saw what He was able to do. I heard a commotion and terrified screaming,
well, more like creepy, eerie screaming.
I dashed off in the direction of the noise to find a young teenage boy
thrashing around on the tiles. He was
writhing like a snake among broken pot plant pieces, cutting himself. He was a mess. I’ll never forget his eyes. Black, pitch black eyes. Almost not even there. It was strange. But eyes full of hatred. I was scared he was going to hurt
someone. The security guards tried to
get him under control but they couldn’t.
He threw them around like rag dolls.
And then I saw Him. Adam. He brushed past me. I almost sensed Him before I saw Him. I found it so odd at the time. Now I understand why. Anyway, he took the boy’s hand and cast out
the demon from him. I and the crowd were
stunned into silence. Off course I had
my camera with me and I snapped all the scenes.
Of the young boy and his father embracing, his father sobbing with joy.”
Lynne:
“And this is when you interviewed him for the newspaper?”
Devlin:
“Yes. I interviewed
him later on the lawn outside the mall.
And this was where He spoke out on a very controversial subject much to
the peoples’ surprise. Not that what He
was talking about was illegal. In fact
it was legal. But as He continued to
speak out about this, He started changing women’s minds and hearts and this is
when He became a problem to a certain sector of the community.”
Lynne:
“I’m not sure I follow.
If He was changing hearts and minds it would be a good thing, not so?”
Devlin:
“Oh it was a good change in every way for the women
concerned and they thanked Him numerous times.
It was this particular sector that wasn’t happy because it was having an
effect on their business. But I am so
excited to tell you how He changed me.”
Lynne:
“Fine let’s do that we can always come back to this point. You do seem very happy. Has Adam got anything to do with it?”
Devlin:
“Happy doesn’t begin to describe it. I carried so much guilt around with me because
of a childhood event for which I blamed myself for years. After performing incredible miracles at the
river which I captured for a follow-up story, He pulled me aside to walk with
Him along the river, my favourite spot.
I had believed lies so long that they were ingrained in me. Strange how us women do that hey? Believing lies before we believe the
truth. Well He wiped all the guilt away
that day and that was the beginning of the wonderful change in my life. And that’s the task that He commissioned me
to do. To spread the truth with my
camera. He warned me it wouldn’t be
easy. And was He ever right. It was even dangerous at times and I can say
my life took drastic turns. Turns that I
would never have had envisaged. But I
worked through those too with Adam’s help.”
Lynne:
“What do mean when you say ‘the truth’?”
Devlin:
“He told me He’d come down from heaven to reconcile man with
God and looking back now I realize in a roundabout way He was telling me that
He might have to offer the ultimate sacrifice for that reconciliation. That broke my heart when the time came. But I knew He’d come to do just that. But victory sometimes comes after much
sorrow. That’s another lesson in life we
learn isn’t it?”
Lynne:
“You’re right there. But
unfortunately our time is running out so let me bring you back to our earlier
point of discussion. What was the
controversial topic that caused so much debate and even danger? The one that seemed to cause a paradox of
emotions and reactions in Spring Manor?”
Devlin:
“A very sore point I must say, one that caused Him many
tears which he shed openly and unashamedly.
A subject that He spoke about with passion. A subject that robbed the world of the ones
that He loved so much. And a word that I
hate mentioning and will always hate mentioning.
Abortion.”
