Lazarus and Mr Tucker page 6 by ric gustafson


Lloyd yelled across the chasm. " Father Abraham".
There was no response.
" Send the old man so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue".
Lloyd began to plead.
" For I am in agony in this flame".
Father Abraham spoke up. " Child, remember that during your life that you received your good things". He looked at Lazarus. " Lazarus had his things but now is being comforted here".
The lack of water was beginning to drive Lloyd mad.
" And you are in agony".
" Then I beg you father that you send the old man to my father's house for I have five brothers". His voice hesitated. " That he might warn them not to come to this place of torment".
" They have Moses and the Prophets, let them hear them".
Lloyd thought for a moment. " No Father Abraham but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent".
" If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets". The voice hesitated. " Neither will they be persuaded  if someone rises from the dead".
