Vision Theme: Persecution & Apostasy
White Horse Prophecy, attributed to Joseph Smith
The oft disputed White Horse Prophecy (1843) states “a man who had heard the Prophet give the toast returned to visit the mansion of the Prophet, and so abused him with bad language, that the man was ordered out by the Prophet. It was while the two were out that my attention was attracted to them and hearing the man speaking in a loud tone of voice, I went toward them; the man finally leaving. There were present the Prophet Joseph Smith, Theodore Turley and myself. The prophet began talking to us of the mobbings and drivings and persecutions we as a people have endured, but, said he, “We will have worse things to see; our persecutors will have all the mobbings they want. Don’t wish them any harm, for when you see their sufferings you will shed bitter tears for them.”
The Vision of Amanda Wilcox (1868)
“After a while the Gentiles will gather to this place by the thousands, and Salt Lake will be classed among the wicked cities of the world. A spirit of speculation and extravagance will take possession of the Saints, and the result will be financial bondage.
“Persecution comes next, and all true Latter-day Saints will be tested to the limit. Many will apostatize, and others will stand still, not knowing what to do. `Darkness will cover the earth and gross darkness the minds of the people.”
Vision of Return to Jackson County by President John Taylor
“President Taylor and other authorities were in Cedar City holding conference. They were staying at the home of Bishop Lunt. President Taylor had stayed home from the morning session to rest. In mid-morning he came into the kitchen where sister Lunt was preparing dinner, and related the vision to her that he had while in his room. He said, “I saw Salt Lake City become a great and beautiful city, cement sidewalks and streets, wealthy people, beautiful homes, extending almost to the top of the mountain south of the state prison. People became indifferent. War began among the people. I saw blood running down
The gutters of Salt Lake City as if it were water. People fighting so much among themselves until it became so serious that the entire church records were taken across the Colorado River.
If you are alive at that time, be sure you are not far behind the records because after the church records leave and are secure, the very powers of hell will be turned loose, and there will be such a destruction that but very little life will remain.
Not only Salt Lake City, but other adjoining cities will be destroyed, and in the East, in Jackson county, Missouri, civilization will become entirely extinct. All means of transportation such as railroads and highways will be destroyed. The only means of travel will be on foot.
And manufacturing of all kinds will be destroyed. Be sure when you see these things come that you will have buttons, needles, and things to work with in order to make clothing. Thread and cloth as much as possible because all tools and things to work with will be destroyed such as machinery.
It will become such a destructive war that the sufferings and drivings of the people from Nauvoo will only be as a drip in the bucket compared with the sufferings that will take place at that time. Until half the people will not follow the church leaders at that time and half the others will die or turn away because of the sufferings that they will have to go through.
But the Lord will bless those who stay with the authorities and they shall not be destroyed.”
Cardston Temple Vision, Sols Caurdisto
I saw that the opposing forces were roughly divided by so-called, Christianity on the one side, and by the so-called followers of Mohammed and Buddha on the other. I saw that the great driving power within these so-called Christian nations, was the Great Apostasy of Rome, in all its political, social and religious aspects. I saw the worldwide dislocation and devastation of production and slaughter of people occur more swiftly and upon a larger scale than ever before. I saw an antagonism begin to express itself from those so-called Christian nations against your people. I saw those with a similar faith to yours in the far east begin to look toward Palestine for safety….
I saw the other officials obeying the inspired instructions, carrying their message and exhorting the people to carry out, from time to time the revelation given them, whilst all around throughout the Gentile world the chaos developed in its varying stages, faction against faction, nation against nation, but all in open or secret hostility to your people and their faith. I saw your people draw closer and closer together, as this became more tense and as the spiritual forces warned them through the mouth of your elders and your other officers. I saw the spiritual forces influencing those members who had drifted away, to re-enter the fold. I saw a greater tithing than ever before.
Vision of Alma D. Erickson (1930s)
I see our church represented by a high building, and we are in the top thereof, or the most recently constructed portion, which is very shakey; and I perceive that this last constructed portion is going to fall, and we must get down to the lower part of this great structure, which rests solidly upon its foundations. And while I am thus viewing it, the top, or last part built, does crash with a loud and fearful crash.
Visions on a Catholic Rise To Political Power & a Popular Global Counterfeit Church
William Branham:
https://williambranham.com/1933-7-visions-of-william-branham/
Here is a vision about a “woman” who takes over, but more like symbolic of the NWO, and the brutality of the Catholic church who rises to political power in the NWO:
Vision Six: Then there arose in the United States a most beautiful woman clothed in splendor, and great power was given to her. She was lovely of feature but there was a hardness about her that defied description. Beautiful as she was, she was yet cruel, wicked and cunning. She dominated the land with her authority, she had complete power over the people. The vision indicated that either such a woman would literally arise or that this woman of the vision was merely a type of an organization which is scripturally characterized by a female. Though the voice did not speak out ¬-and reveal who she was, he felt in his heart that this woman represented the rising Roman Catholic Church, and he inserted in parenthesis beside at the end of this vision which he had written out, (perhaps the Catholic church).
The Cardston Prophecy:
I saw that the great driving power within these so-called Christian nations, was the Great Apostasy of Rome, in all its political, social and religious aspects. I saw the worldwide dislocation and devastation of production and slaughter of people occur more swiftly and upon a larger scale than ever before. I saw an antagonism begin to express itself from those so-cal1ed Christian nations against your people. I saw those with a similar faith to yours in the far east begin to look toward Palestine for safety.
The David Wilkerson Vision:
I see the rise of a super world church. I see the formation of a super world church council consisting of a union between liberal, ecumenical Protestants, and the Roman Catholic Church joining politically hand-in-hand to create one of the most powerful religious forces on earth. This union is going to start as a cooperative charity program and it will end in a political union. This visible super world church is going to be spiritual in name only, freely using the name of Jesus Christ, but will in fact be antichrist and political in many of its activities. This powerful church union will be deeply involved in social action, tremendous charity programs, and ministries of compassion. Its leaders will make statements about meeting human needs. They will send out a call for social action, political intervention, and a greater voice in world affairs.¬¬
Vision Theme: Gathering & Call Out
Samuel Whitney Richards, March 1846
“I went to my Seventies Quorum meeting in the Nauvoo Temple. The whole quorum being present consisting of fifteen members….Dressing ourselves in the order of the Priesthood we called upon the Lord, his spirit attended us, and the visions were opened to our view. I was, as it were, lost to myself and beheld the earth reel to and fro and was moved out of its place. Men fell to the earth and their life departed from them…. and great was the scene of destruction upon all the face of the land, and at the close thereof, there appeared a great company as it were of saints coming from the west, as I stood with my back passing to the east and the scripture was fulfilled which saith, “Come; see the desolation which the Lord hath made in the earth;” and the company of saints who had been hid as it were, from the earth; and I beheld other things which were glorious while the power of God rested down upon me. Others also beheld angels and the glory of God….The sacrament was administered. Our joy increased by the gift of tongues and prophecy by which great things were spoken and made known to us.”
Sarah Menet, There is No Death
As I looked upon this scene of chaos, smoke, and destruction, I noticed there were small pockets of light scattered over the US, perhaps 20 or 30 of them. I noticed that most of the locations of light were in the western part of the US with only three of four of them being in the East. These places of light seemed to shine brightly through the darkness and were such a contrast to the rest of the scene that they caught my full attention. I focused on them for a moment and asked, “What is this light?”
I was then able to see these points of light were people who had gathered together and were kneeling in prayer. The light was actually coming from the people, and I understood that it was showing forth their goodness and love for each other. They had gathered together for safety and contrary to what I had witnessed elsewhere were caring more for each other than for themselves. Some of the groups were small with only a hundred people or so. Other groups consisted of what seemed to be thousands.
I realized that many, if not all, of these places of light, or “cities of light” had somehow been established just before the biological attack and they were very organized. In these places were relative peace and safety. I noticed the gangs made no threats on these groups. However, the people within had defenses and God was with them.
The Cardston Prophecy (1923) (Cardston, Canada Temple)
I saw further on, instructions given whereby places of refuge prepared quietly but efficiently by inspired elders. I saw Cardston and the surrounding foothills, especially north and west for miles, being prepared for your people quietly but quickly. I saw the fuel resources of the district develop in many places and vast piles of coal and timber stored for future use and building. I saw the territory carefully surveyed and mapped out, for the camping of a great body of the people of the church. I saw provisions also made for a big influx of people who will not at first belong to the church , but who will gather in their tribulation. I was these things going on practically unknown to the Gentile world.
I saw the inspired call sent forth to all the church, to gather to the refuges of Zion. I saw the stream of your people quietly moving in the direction of their refuge. I saw your people moving more quickly in larger numbers until all the stragglers were housed. I saw the wireless message flashed from Zion’s refuge to Zion’s refuge in their several places that all was well with them, and then the darkness of chaos closed around the boundaries of your people, and the last days of tribulation had begun.
Anonymous (Dreams & Visions, Vol. II p.124)
I would note that during this part of the dream, when we initially left, there was no sense of panic or urgency. We were hurrying to get going because we didn’t want to be left behind. Also, I was told that some people were asked to go, but didn’t want to. From this I infer that the conditions of the or the US, were so based as to make it an easy decision as whether to stay or leave.
Anyway, after a while, we all gathered together in a central area and were welcomed by President Monson and not President Hinckley there, remember this dream occurred in approximately the year 2000.
(p. 130) We were told in church to go to a meeting at the Stake House that afternoon if we had our food storage. I remember more about the meeting and packing than any other part of the dream. There was turmoil in the world, but life was still pretty normal, though prices were high and there was a fear of the future. Some of the members with food storage thought it was about putting our things in a common pot. Some of them chose not to go to the meeting because they didn’t feel they should have to share what they had accumulated. Other people were teasing them about having to give all of it up and share it with those who hadn’t prepared.
At the meeting, I remember being concerned about my kids on missions. At the time we had two missionaries out, and were told they would come to the place we were going, so not to worry about them.
A semi truck came late that night, at an appointed hour. They backed up and the door of it was a as close as it could get. It was so close you couldn’t see from the road that things were being loaded into the truck. There were quite a few men, none of whom I recognized, who loaded the food storage up (the hour was in the wee hours of the morning, so people around us would not see a semi was taking things from our house). Somehow the food and other items were know that it was ours. I don’t know how, but when we arrived at the place we got it back.
Patriarch Charles D. Evans, LDS Church Archives
My vision now became extended in a marvelous manner, and the import of the past labors of the Elders was made plain to me. I saw multitudes fleeing to the place of safety in our mountain heights. The church was established in the wilderness.

An Overview of the Call-Out
(Based on a synthesis of visions on the subject.)
- You are “invited” by the prophet through satellite at a special meeting called by the Stake President if you have food.
- 90% don’t go for various reasons: They didn’t store up food. They couldn’t let go of their possessions. They weren’t debt free to walk away. They didn’t want to share their food. They were not spiritually prepared to heed the call when it came. Some mocked those who were going and even tried to talk them out of it.
- There is gas/trucks/time to get resources to the places of refuge. There is a sense of calm. Most places are church owned properties. After this “call out” anyone trying to reach the places of refuge later is on foot, the collapse of society prevents most from ever reaching them.
- The tent cities are organized by stakes, but families are kept together. Missionaries are called home for a season and delivered to the families.
- The camps last about 18 months. They set up camp in the spring before the “poison that falls from the skies” begins mid‐summer. The camps are to survive the devastating plague, but they also survive the great earthquake, the nuclear attacks and troop invasion. Our men, using the priesthood (and the lost tribes) drive the troops out.
- After the saints leave the camps, there is five more years of the tribulation. Millions are coming into Utah for peace, food and safety. We are given assignments to help gather to MO or to care for those who reach Utah.
Note on timing of the call-out: About 1.5 years in the camps. About 5 years of tribulation remaining after we leave the camps. The saints are called out near the beginning of the 7-year tribulation. Now based on approximations of when these tribulations end, wind back the clock 7 years, and you see, this is going down soon.
Why a Call Out Protects the Saints? The visions give us more insight to the concept of the Saints being called out. The more we study the mechanics of a Call Out during the cleansing period or tribulation, the more it becomes apparent that it is a divine plan to protect the Saints. Here are the advantages:
- It separates the wheat from the tares, for the Lord’s purposes.
- It removes the obedient from the general populous thus preserving resources (food).
- It provides an atmosphere that will be conducive to the multitude of miracles promised.
- It begins the sanctification process for those who will be prepared to build New Jerusalem.
- It rewards the obedient with protection from the calamities.
- It is the Lord’s escape plan.
What the Call Out is and is Not: There are volumes of books written on the “gathering Israel to build Zion” theme, but a Call Out is NOT in the same context as the gathering of saints to build up the kingdom. The concept of a Call Out is a temporary place of refuge where we return to our former homes. The gathering of Zion is a permanent foundation in every nation, kindred, and tongue. Elder Holland speaks of this permanent gathering.
Jeffrey R. Holland, Devotional Broadcast, 2012
You see, one of the truly exciting things about this dispensation is that it is a time of mighty, accelerated change. And on thing that has changed is that the Church of God will never again flee…
Of course, that statement wasn’t a comment about the Salt Lake Valley only or even the Wasatch Front generally; it became a statement for members of the Church all over the world. In these last days, in this our dispensation, we would become mature enough to stop running. We would become mature enough to plant our feet and our families and our foundations in every nation, kindred, tongue, and people permanently.

Vision Theme: Economic Collapse
http://woodyoubelieveit.blogspot.com/2009/08/john-koyle-prophecies-dream-mine.html
He was told by the messenger that there would be a great crash in the land before the period of famine began. This crash would be brought about by prices going up, which condition was illustrated to him as being like a person on high stilts. When prices became extremely high, something happened in the land like knocking the stilts from under the person and down came everything. Businesses closed down, labor was thrown out of work, people were hungry, and great tribulations were in the land.
The U.S. government will keep propping up the economy as if it were on stilts, until finally it would suddenly collapse overnight.
Taxes will become oppressive and almost impossible to pay.
The United States will experience interest rates which will finally reach 20% to 24% after a period of 10% to 14%.”
There will be an overnight price crash. Wages and prices will be 20 cents on the dollar.
Near the end, many of the General Authorities will become quite old. Troubles will start when three leaders will die in close proximity to one another.
This time of trouble will be ushered in by a financial crash; we go to bed at night and awake in the morning with no light, water, gas or heat. The money will become worthless, not worth the paper it is written on, an armful would not buy a loaf of bread.
Something will cause the Church welfare program to be inadequate at the end.
Note: The church program wasn’t meant to fix everything, or to feed everyone.
Wall Street will have a major drop sometime before the total failure.
LDS church archives, letter from Nephi Packard to A. Milton Musser, July 24, 1896.
“My brother Noah Packard says that he heard the Prophet Joseph say that the next great U.S. civil war, after the war of the rebellion, (the civil war of the 1860’s between the North and South) would commence in a little town now called Chicago, but at that time it would have grown to be a very large city. And another brother told me that the Prophet said that the cause of the next great trouble of the United States would be the depreciation of the currency of the United States. I believe I have given you all the facts in as short and concise a manner as possible.”
Note: In other words, the second civil war is probably started over the depreciation of the US currency.

“It was as if I was at the NYSE. I saw two men in a tug of war over money. Then others joined in from all sides, and they all started pulling. The money was stretching more and more and getting thinner and thinner…then the stretched out money tore right down the middle…everyone landed on their backs and their hands were empty, they stood up, brushed themselves off and looked around. All the money was gone. Then again I saw the house of cards, it had fallen and the cards were laying everywhere in disarray on the NYSE floor.”
“Then I was in New York City. I saw a man getting out of a taxi holding a brief case. He looked up at a very large stark grey building. I knew it was somehow connected to the World Bank. Then I saw a meeting inside this building. Several individuals were sitting at a large table, and there was a lot of yelling. There was a man standing with his back to the others, looking out a window and talking on a cell phone. He was negotiating with the World Bank in England. They were shifting funds to stop the worldwide meltdown of banks. He was speaking of two banks they were very concerned about. One was here in the United States, and very large, the other was in the UK and connected to the royalty. Both banks were ready to fall and one had to be sacrificed to save the other. It was like a power tug of war. If the royal bank were to fail it would affect the political stability in Europe. All of the European banks were scrambling. Even the royal family was concerned. Next I saw that it was decided to sacrifice the US bank.” “Next I saw the Whitehouse. The president was in the oval office and got the news. He then called for a meeting of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a special session of congress. He had no more moves to make and was following orders…back at the meeting at the White House everyone looked down. There was nothing they could do. They had worked all day to save the economy and it was gone. Next I saw the NYSE just before the closing bell. There were some people who had connections and rumor of the bank closure was affecting everything. I saw the market drop 1,200 points just before things closed. Next I saw the President’s face as he picked up the phone. Then he was on a news broadcast and declared a nationwide/global emergency.”

“The next thing that came to me was more felt than seen. It was the understanding that shortly after the crashing of the buildings in New York City, commerce ceased. Shopping and buying seemed to stop and the economy failed throughout the world. Few had any money at all, and those who did have it could not buy anything. Gold and silver and other commodities had value and could be traded.”
Charles Fuchs, LaVerkin, Utah
“…At that point, President Smith quite abruptly stopped and turned in the seat so that he was facing my brother and related to him what sounds basically like the same vision that Brother David Horne related. Everything that my brother wrote down in his journal….
However, Pres. Smith did tell him to look specifically for the day when the American Dollar was so worthless that no other country would allow payment in dollars, for that would signal the beginning of such a severe depression that only LDS people who had their food supplies and clothing supplies and whatever they needed for heat and to cook with would be able to survive.”
- 116-117
“I saw that whenever this time was that I was being shown, the financial structure of the world had completely collapsed. Every bank had closed down and money was worthless. People were learning to trade and barter.
Manufacturing and industry were at a virtual stand-still. There were no raw materials and no money to pay the workers. Factories and global businesses shut down overnight.
… In Salt Lake City, there had been a massive earthquake in that area in the fall of the year.”
1894, Springville Utah, from Church Archives.
(This is a dream from a volume at BYU Special Collections. This dream was included in The Contributor, Young Men’s Mutual Improvement Association of the Latter-day Saints published in 1894 by The Deseret News Publishing Company.)
Confidence is lost. Wealth is arrayed against labor, labor against wealth, yet the land abounds with plenty for food and raiment, and silver and gold are in abundance. Thou seest also that letters written by a Jew have wrought great confusion in the finances of the nation which, together with the policy of many wealthy ones, has produced distress and do presage further sorrow.
Factions now sprang up as if by magic; capital had entrenched itself against labor throughout the land; labor was organized against capital. The voice of the wise sought to tranquilize these two powerful factors in vain. Excited multitudes ran wildly about; strikes increased; lawlessness sought the place of regular government. At this juncture I saw a banner floating in air whereon was written the words Bankruptcy, Famine, Floods, Fire, Cyclones, Blood, Plague. Mad with rage men and women rushed upon each other. Blood flowed down the streets of cities like water. The demon of bloody hate had enthroned itself on the citadel of reason; the thirst for blood was intenser than that of the parched tongue for water. Thousands of bodies lay untombed in the streets. Men and women fell dead from the terror inspired from fear. Rest was but the precursor of the bloody work of the morrow.
Note: As we see here, the civil war is triggered by the financial collapse.
Note: Bishop Koyle says economic collapse on a holiday weekend where the holiday falls on a Monday. He says it’s before the civil war breaks out.

George Albert Smith
President at the time will not be of European ancestry. This collapse will make the Great Depression look like a Sunday picnic.
(Featured on p. 36 of Dreams and Visions of the Last Days Vol. 2 by Roger Young & Christopher Parrett) 1930
Patriarch Wolfgramm
Big financial collapse last two years of a sitting president. There will be a great drought about the same time all over the country. Many in the church will apostatize.

Sols Caurdisto
I saw the international world war automatically break down, and national revolution occur in every country and complete the work of chaos and desolation. …I saw the international boundary line disappear (Cananda/US) and these two governments broke up and dissolved into chaos. I saw race rioting upon the American continent on a vast scale.
(Mentioned in Visions of Glory, p. 251) 1923
(a personal dream/story of Gayle Smith on the internet) 1993
http//www.greaterthings.com/nde/GayleSmith/vision.htm (This site is apparently down now.)
August 26, 1997
October the 10th and the 29th are significant days, but the year has not been revealed. She also said that a worldwide economic collapse that would take place in the month of October, and it starts in the United States. It will literally happen overnight or over a weekend like Friday to Monday.
From 1993:
My mother then started showing me a scenario of events that will take place beginning with a worldwide economic collapse that would take place in the month of October.
I was told it will actually begin in the US. The reason it happens is to bring down America. I don’t think they want to destroy America, they just want to bring it under their control. My mother said I would hear rumors and they will get louder and the collapse will happen quickly. We will wake up one morning and it will have happened.
After the collapse I saw marauding bands or gangs running around. People just go crazy and start rioting. They are killing because they are angry and hungry. Everything they know of value on this on this earth is being taken away from them within a few days. In a very short time there will be a famine.
Note: As we see here, the sequence is financial collapse, then famine.
I believe for the most part this famine is brought upon us. It’s premeditated and planned out. No trucks bring food deliveries. Famine is brought on quickly and the stores are cleared out within hours. A short term after the collapse we are put under FEMA and Martial law.
Foreign troops are called in America to help restore order, but are here to attack us instead, set off nuclear bombs, usher in New World Order.
Vision Theme: Another American Civil War
Excerpts from John Taylor’s second vision (Horseshoe Vision):
He said, “I saw Salt Lake City become a great and beautiful city, cement sidewalks and streets, wealthy people, beautiful homes, extending almost to the top of the mountain south of the state prison. People became indifferent. War began among the people. I saw blood running down the gutters of Salt Lake City as if it were water. People fighting so much among themselves until it became so serious that the entire church records were taken across the Colorado River.
… Not only Salt Lake City, but other adjoining cities will be destroyed, and in the East, in Jackson county, Missouri, civilization will become entirely extinct. All means of transportation such as railroads and highways will be destroyed. The only means of travel will be on foot. And manufacturing of all kinds will be destroyed. Be sure when you see these things come that you will have buttons, needles, and things to work with in order to make clothing. Thread and cloth as much as possible because all tools and things to work with will be destroyed such as machinery.
It will become such a destructive war that the sufferings and drivings of the people from Nauvoo will only be as a drip in the bucket compared with the sufferings that will take place at that time. Until half the people will not follow the church leaders at that time and half the others will die or turn away because of the sufferings that they will have to go through. But the Lord will bless those who stay with the authorities and they shall not be destroyed.
…The vision was so terrible that he asked the Lord to close it up. But he said that those who would keep the commandments and adhere to the authorities of the church would survive; and the Lord would protect them as he did the people of Israel.
Elder Moses Thatcher Journal of Discourses Vol. 26:36
“Would to God we had statesmen with eyes clear enough to see!…. the day is not far distant, unless the Democratic and Republican parties open their eyes to the situation, when desolation and war will be in this government.
I will say when this nation, having sown to the wind, reaps the whirlwind; when brother takes up sword against brother; when father contends against son, and son against father; when he who will not take up his sword against his neighbor must needs flee to Zion for safety—then I would say to my friends come to Utah; for the judgments of God, commencing at the house of the Lord, will have passed away, and Utah, undisturbed, will be the most delightful place in all the Union. When war and desolation and bloodshed, and the ripping up of society come upon the nation, I have said to such, “Come to Utah and we will divide our morsel of food with you, we will divide our clothing with you, and we will offer you protection.” I will tell you, my brethren and sisters, the day will come, and it is not far distant, when he who will not take up his sword against his neighbor, will have to flee to Zion for safety; and it is presupposed in this prediction that Zion will have power to give them protection. We are not going to do it outside of the government, either; we are going to do it inside the government. There is no power in this land to turn this people against the government of the United States. They will maintain the Constitution of this country inviolate, and although it may have been torn to shreds they will tie it together again, and maintain every principle of it, holding it up to the downtrodden of every nation, kindred, tongue and people, and they will do it, too, under the Stars and Stripes. They will stand with their feet firmly upon the backbone of the American continent and maintain the principles which cost their fathers so much, and those principles cannot be taken away by men who violate their oath of office, and betray their trust.
I tell you that there are boys growing up in these mountains who have the principles of human liberty grounded deep in their hearts, and they will maintain them, not only for themselves, but for others. God speed the day I say—if the nation pursues its downward course and tears up these fundamental principles of government which have made them strong—when the Constitution may be rescued and all men and women shall be free again.”
George Washington saw a civil war and then an foreign troop invasion.
…”And this time the dark shadowy angel turned his face southward. From Africa I saw an ill-omened spectre approach our land. It flitted slowly and heavily over every town and city of the latter. The inhabitants presently set themselves in battle array against each other. As I continued looking, I saw a bright angel on whose brow rested a crown of light on which was traced the word ‘Union.’ He was bearing the American flag. He placed the flag between the divided nation and said, ‘Remember, ye are brethren.’
(This vision was received by George Washington in the winter of 1777. Washington told his vision to Anthony Sherman, who recounted it to Wesley Bradshaw, publisher of the National Stripes.)
Charles Evans 1894
Confidence is lost. Wealth is arrayed against labor, labor against wealth….together with the policy of many wealthy ones, has produced distress and do presage further sorrow. Mad with rage men and women rushed upon each other. Blood flowed down the streets of cities like water.

I saw the international world war automatically break down, and national revolution occur in every country and complete the work of chaos and desolation. …I saw the international boundary line disappear (Cananda/US) and these two governments broke up and dissolved into chaos. I saw race rioting upon the American continent on a vast scale.

Vision Theme: Earthquakes in Utah etc.
David Wilkerson, published 1974 www.alamongordo.com
“The United States is going to experience in the future the most tragic earthquakes in its history. One day soon this nation will be reeling under the impact of the biggest news story of modern times. It will be coverage of the biggest most disastrous earthquake in history. It will cause widespread panic and fear, Without a doubt, it will become one of the most completely reported earthquake ever. Television networks will suspend all programming and carry all day coverage. Another earthquake, possibly in Japan may precede the one that I see coming here. There is not the slightest doubt in my mind about this forthcoming massive earthquake in our continent. I am not at all convinced that this earthquake will take place in California. In fact, I believe it is going to take place where it is least expected. This terrible earthquake may happen in an area that is not known as an earthquake belt. It will be so high on the Richter scale that it will trigger two other major earthquakes.”
New Madrid Dreams www.z3news.com
There have been multiple dreams concerning the Madrid fault line. It seems that the country will have an actual divider, separating the east from the west. And that this will trigger more earthquakes in other areas.
#1 Pastor Shane Warren, First Assembly of God, West Monroe, LA
“Ladies and gentlemen another tragedy has hit America. Right in the heartland on the new Madrid fault line a major earthquake has just hit. Immediately pictures of devastation began to pop up all over the heartland of America along the new Madrid fault line as earthquakes caused cities to crumble. While I was sitting there, I heard a booming voice behind my ear that said, ”They have divided my land. Now I will divide their land.”
#2 Pastor John Kilpatrick, Pensacola, FL May 2008
“It was a very stirring dream. I never had one that real before. When I woke up, it stirred me to the point that I asked my wife to hold me and I am you know, a grown man. I have never done that ever before with a dream of any kind. But I dreamed of an earthquake that took place and it was shown to me and several stages but I won’t go into all of the details of it. The Lord showed me that an earthquake was going to hit in the middle part of the country right where the new Madrid fault line is. It was so real when the Lord showed it to me that I would walk by the television set for several days after that night and in my mind I could not understand why it was not on television. That’s how real it was. But the lord was showing me, I believe, that if we continue to fool with Jerusalem and our secretary of state and our President keep putting pressure on Israel to give up land and to give up Jerusalem for peace then I believe that a major earthquake is going to strike America. If we pressure Israel to divide their land then our land will be divided. “
#3 Minister Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj
“Suddenly I saw an open vision right before my eyes. I saw a mighty angel with a long, drawn sword in his hand. And he stood before me speaking all of these words. Then he said, “This is what will happen to the best friend that will betray Israel and divide Jerusalem.” When he spoke those words, I saw this map of the U.S. like in three-dimensional. It appeared right before my eyes beside the angel. And he took the sword and he pierced right into the heart of the U.S. and he cut it into two. He said “Likewise will this nation be divided as Jerusalem will be divided.” He cut the land into two exactly in the center.”
Spencer
(p.117)
My flight across North America began in Salt Lake City. There had been a massive earthquake in that area in the fall of the year. The fault that runs along the Wasatch front had moved dramatically, causing a great deal of damage to cities along the front.
I saw that the next spring after the destruction in Utah, there were another devastating series of earthquakes that occurred along the west coast of North and South America. The western coast of CA and Mexico and all the way to the tip of S. America was shaken so badly that much of it broke away from the mainland and formed a series of islands off the coast.
(p 121) Now, back to N. Temple, the earthquake had broken up the streets and where there were cracks in the road, water was shooting into the sky. Water was also gushing from manhole covers, storm drains and cracks in the earth. All this time I was wondering where all the water was coming from. The water was shooting up about six feet into the air. It was all astonishing.
(p. 123) All of this water drained into the Great Salt Lake, moving the salted water in a tidal wave out into the desert northwest of the lake. In some places I-15 was covered and the whole airport was flooded. It was months before military planes could land there.
(p.127) The earthquake had not been centered in downtown SLC but here where the land had dropped away (Draper). Apparently it had been overarching a massive underground lake.
(Visions of Glory)
Gayle Smith’s Dream
(Online)
Within 10 days of the economic collapse we have the first earthquake affecting Utah which takes place early in the morning, about 4 or 5 am. When I first saw it I didn’t think it was very hard because I saw there wasn’t much damage done to my home in Utah County, but it lasts a long time. People will think this is the big one. I saw that this earthquake was much stronger somewhere else like on the west coast area of California but it also affects Nevada. There is a lot of damage done and there is some loss of life though there are a lot of people who survive. The second time my mother showed it to me I realized that it is a very significant earthquake. The second earthquake affecting Utah takes place about 15 days after the first and also takes place in the early morning. This earthquake is like the world has never seen and affects a much larger area than Utah. It’s right off the Richter Scale. (All of Utah dams break.)
Kenneth
(p. 121 of Dreams and Visions of the Last Days Vol. 2 by Roger Young & Christopher Parrett)
The scene seems to gain some control when, after a little time passed (not sure how long), a second earthquake hit and was worse than the first. Again, more time passed and a third earthquake hit. I thought that not a single building could stand the terrible shaking of the earth. However, looking over the two valleys there were still many buildings standing. Even those that still stood had some degree of damage.
I was able to see the faces of many and the fear of God was definitely there. Not so much fear as in respect, but fear of furthering chastising. Fear was soon replaced by anger and outright defiance of their Maker. How could God-fearing people turn so quickly on their Maker?
Sarah Menet
(From Menet’s book, ‘There is No Death’)
Now the smoke became very heavy, dark, and thick. Just as things appeared to be as bad as they could get, the earth began to quake. This occurred during a winter, seemingly the winter that followed the very long one I saw earlier.
The chaos had existed for almost a full year by this time.
**(Contradicts Gayle’s “10 days following the collapse.)
The earthquakes began in the West, around Idaho and Wyoming and then quickly spread in every direction. I saw a huge earthquake hit Utah and then California.
(Note: Commentary comparing this with other visions: Even with all the earthquakes, the majority of deaths are caused by gangs and marauders. Also, associates the earthquakes with the earth attempting to cleanse itself of the chaos and evil that engulfed the people.)
John H. Koyle, The Dream Mine
H saw that during the time of great tribulation there would be a massive earthquake out in the Pacific Ocean that would bring giant tidal waves along our Pacific Coast. This would in turn bring destructive quakes along the San Andreas Fault and wreck great destruction in San Francisco and Oakland. If inspired, prophetic warnings were heeded in time, many of our people would escape these disasters.
Vision Theme: Famine
Patriarch Wolfgramm (Featured on p. 41 of Dreams and Visions of the Last Days Vol. 2 by Roger Young & Christopher Parrett) 1989
Big financial collapse last two years of a sitting president. There will be a great drought about the same time all over the country.
Anonymous ((Featured on p. 81 of Dreams and Visions of the Last Days Vol. 2 by Roger Young & Christopher Parrett) 2008
Complete breakdown in civil society. I understood that the beginning of this event was a result of the collapse of the food delivery supply chain. In my dream I did not see what precipitated this event, but it was starvation and famine that drove society over the edge.
Gayle Smith (personal dream/story on internet) 1993
After the collapse I saw marauding bands or gangs running around. People just go crazy and start rioting. They are killing because they are angry and hungry. Everything they know of value on this on this earth is being taken away from them within a few days. In a very short time there will be a famine.
I believe for the most part this famine is brought upon us. It’s premeditated and planned out. No trucks bring food deliveries. Famine is brought on quickly and the stores are cleared out within hours. A short term after the collapse we are put under FEMA and Martial law.
Bishop John Koyle Vision
The messenger told him the purpose of the mine would be to bring relief to the Lord’s faithful people at a time when great tribulation and distress would be in the land. The mine was to be called the “Relief Mine.” He told him of a period of four years of famine and explained that the first two years the Saints would be able to get by, but the third and fourth years they would have nothing to eat unless it was prepared and stored up against that time. Then there would be two more years which would be a recovery period. The messenger explained that there would be winters of heavy snow and big snow drifts after which there would be a mild open winter, but whether that winter was to follow immediately or whether some other winters would be in between, he never explained.
However, immediately following the mild open winter, there would be a hot, dry summer. The crops would come up in the spring, and there would be considerable moisture, and the crops would be glorious (that is the word Bishop used to use.) He saw the wheat would grow up and head out beautifully, and the irrigated wheat would mature, but the dry land wheat would not have enough moisture to fill out. By harvest time the heads would curl over in a sort of crescent shape. This was shown to him in another dream wherein he saw he went into the wheat fields when they were binding the grain which looked like it would be a splendid crop. He picked up a bundle of wheat by the binding twine, and the head’s end of the bundle came up with the butt end of the bundle hanging down because it was heavier. Realizing that the head end should have gone down if there had been good wheat in it, he examined the heads of wheat by crushing them in his hands to bring out the kernels. He found that the wheat was terribly shrunken and not fit for food. He was told by the messenger that this condition would bring about a shortage of food during the first year of harvest.
The second year he was shown would be the same only much less food raised. Still, the irrigated grain would be good. He was told we would need to store up the first and second years grain to supply food for the third and fourth years. The third year the shortage would be so great that there would hardly be anything raised for food. The fourth year they would not be able to raise anything for food.
He was shown in another dream that during the fourth year there would be plenty of money to buy food and he with others went up and down throughout the country seeking to buy food and they could not buy any. Any people who had a little food would not sell it at any price. During this time of famine there would be no rain to do any good. He saw the clouds would come up, and it would look like it was going to rain, but a wind would come up and blow the clouds away; and if there was any rain at all, it was just a few drops which were not sufficient to do any good.
The purpose of the mine was to build store bins and store up wheat and other foods like Joseph of old who was sold into Egypt. He saw the rains would come in the fifth year, and they would be forced to spare a little wheat for seed but would be sorely pressed to raise enough to eat during the fifth year and save enough for seed for the sixth year. The rains continued to come, the crops grew, and at the harvest time of the sixth year they would have enough food to carry on.
He was told by the messenger that there would be a great crash in the land before the period of famine began. This crash would be brought about by prices going up, which condition was illustrated to him as being like a person on high stilts. When prices became extremely high, something happened in the land like knocking the stilts from under the person and down came everything. Businesses closed down, labor was thrown out of work, people were hungry, and great tribulations were in the land. He saw that the best place to live and to work would be at the mine. Those who worked there would be the best off. He was told by the messenger that the Church program to care for the poor would all be used up during the first and second years of famine, that the mine would bring relief during the third year and would carry on the relief from the third year on.
Vision Theme: Plague
Spencer, Visions of Glory
(p. 128) About this time, a devastating plague swept across the nation. It came in three waves. Each wave more virulent, killing healthier people, and killing them quicker. It swept across North and South America and around the world killing billions. But the troops who arrived seemed to be mostly immune to it, though a few of them died. It took many months before the survivors of the plague realized the true source of it.
(p.131) About this time, the same plague that had devastated so much of the east arrived in Utah as it spread across the nation. As I said, we found out later that the plague was man-made, and the troops had been inoculated against the pathogen that caused the plague.
(p. 132) When a person contracted the plague, they got many small pox marks on their skin similar to pimples. They grey very sick quickly. The itching and pain were severe. Shortly before death, the pox erupted and oozed. This fluid was extremely contagious. Everyone who touched it got sick. The very young and very old died first. Those who were trying to help others got contaminated by touching the fluid and died next.
…I was left with the impression that between the earthquake and the plague, more than half of the population had been killed–more on the coastlines and fewer inland.
(Visions of Glory)
John Taylor
Here are the cities he talks of being particularly impacted by the plague and other forms of deadly chaos:
Salt Lake City, Council Bluffs, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Broadway, NY, Grand Central Park, Missouri, Illinois and Iowa. He reports seeing death on a large scale due to a plague of sickness, violence, murder, fires, no one left to bury the piles of dead people. Major cities evacuated.
(p.35 of Dreams and Visions of the Last Days Vol. 1 by Roger Young)
Here’s an excerpt from his vision:
I was then in a dream, immediately in the city of Salt Lake, and wandering around in the streets and in all parts of the city, and on the doors of the houses I found badges of mourning and I could not find a house but was in mourning. I passed my own house and found the same sign there, and I asked the question, “Is that me that is dead?” Someone gave me the answer, “No, you will get through it all.”
It seemed strange to me that I saw no person in the streets in all my wandering around the country. I seemed to be in their houses with the sick, but saw no funeral procession, nor anything of the kind, but the city looking still and as though the people were praying. And it seemed that they had controlled the disease, but what the disease was I did not learn; it was not made known to me. I then looked over the country, north, east, south, and west, and the same mourning was in every land and in every place.
Sarah Menet
I then saw a man walk into the middle of a crowd of people and drop what seemed like a quart full of liquid. The jar broke and the liquid spread. I understand that people nearby had become infected with a disease from the liquid, and they didn’t even know it. A day or two later people became sick and started dying. I saw that this would happen in at least four particular cities: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Salt Lake City. This disease started with white blisters, some of the size of a dime, appearing on the hands, arms and faces of the victims. The blisters quickly developed into white puffy sores. Those with the disease would stumble around and fall over dead.
I also saw other people with a flu-like virus that spread more quickly than the first disease. The victims had blood coming from their nose, mouth, eyes, and ears. These people died even faster of this disease than the ones who had the first sickness. These diseases became widespread across the US with hundreds of thousands infected. Many died within a short time, perhaps 24 hours.
Also from Menet:
As I looked upon this scene of chaos, smoke, and destruction, I noticed there were small pockets of light scattered over the US, perhaps 20 or 30 of them. I noticed that most of the locations of light were in the western part of the US with only three of four of them being in the East. These places of light seemed to shine brightly through the darkness and were such a contrast to the rest of the scene that they caught my full attention. I focused on them for a moment and asked, “What is this light?”
I was then able to see these points of light were people who had gathered together and were kneeling in prayer. The light was actually coming from the people, and I understood that it was showing forth their goodness and love for each other. They had gathered together for safety and contrary to what I had witnessed elsewhere were caring more for each other than for themselves. Some of the groups were small with only a hundred people or so. Other groups consisted of what seemed to be thousands.
I realized that many, if not all, of these places of light, or “cities o flight” had somehow been established just before the biological attack and they were very organized. In these places were relative peace and safety. I noticed the gangs made no threats on these groups. However, the people within had defenses and God was with them.
(From Menet’s book, ‘There is no Death’)
Charles Evans
Again the light shone, revealing an atmosphere tinged with a leaden hue which was the precursor of an unparalleled plague whose first symptoms were recognized by a purple spot which appeared on the cheek or on the back of the hand and which invariably enlarged until it spread over the entire surface of the body producing certain death.
(Appears in Visions of Glory, p. 259)
The Dream of the Plagues (1884)
On the first page was a picture of a feast in progress, with the long table set upon a beautiful lawn, over which were interspersed with clumps of fine shrubs and towering trees. The landscape presented the appearance of midsummer. The sky, and indeed the whole atmosphere appeared of a peculiar sickly brassy hue, similar to that which may be observed when the sun is wholly eclipsed and the disc is just beginning again to give its light. Throughout the atmosphere small white specks were represented, similar to a scattering fall of minute snowflakes in winter.
About the table a party of richly dressed ladies and gentlemen were seated in the act of partaking of the rich repast with which the table was laden. The minute specks falling from above were dropping into the food apparently unheeded by all, for a sudden destruction had come upon them.
Below this picture was the description: “A camp of the Saints who have gathered together and are living under the daily revelations of God, and thus preserved from the plague.” I understood from this that each family was in its tent during the hours of the day that the poison falls, and thus were preserved from breathing the deadly particles.
The church issues a call out to hide in the mountains for 18-24 months to preserve us from the plague. “Tent Cities” are protected from the troops.
(1884) (“The Dream of Plagues” was published in The Contributor. August 1884, 5:411, see also http://visionsandtribulation.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-dream-of-plagues.html).
The Cardston Prophecy
I saw further on, instructions given whereby places of refuge prepared quietly but efficiently by inspired elders. I saw Cardston and the surrounding foothills, especially north and west for miles, being prepared for your people quietly but quickly. I saw the fuel resources of the district develop in many places and vast piles of coal and timber stored for future use and building. I saw the territory carefully surveyed and mapped out, for the camping of a great body of the people of the church. I saw provisions also made for a big influx of people who will not at first belong to the church , but who will gather in their tribulation. I was these things going on practically unknown to the Gentile world.
I saw the inspired call sent forth to all the church, to gather to the refuges of Zion. I saw the stream of your people quietly moving in the direction of their refuge. I saw your people moving more quickly in larger numbers until all the stragglers were housed. I saw the wireless message flashed from Zion’s refuge to Zion’s refuge in their several places that all was well with them, and then the darkness of chaos closed around the boundaries of your people, and the last days of tribulation had begun.
(1923) (Appears in Visions of Glory on p.251) (Cardston, Canada Temple)
Vision Theme: Invasion
John Taylor’s second vision (Horseshoe Vision) – Excerpt
He said, “I saw Salt Lake City become a great and beautiful city, cement sidewalks and streets, wealthy people, beautiful homes, extending almost to the top of the mountain south of the state prison. People became indifferent. War began among the people. I saw blood running down the gutters of Salt Lake City as if it were water. People fighting so much among themselves until it became so serious that the entire church records were taken across the Colorado River.
… Not only Salt Lake City, but other adjoining cities will be destroyed, and in the East, in Jackson county, Missouri, civilization will become entirely extinct. All means of transportation such as railroads and highways will be destroyed. The only means of travel will be on foot. And manufacturing of all kinds will be destroyed. Be sure when you see these things come
that you will have buttons, needles, and things to work with in order to make clothing. Thread and cloth as much as possible because all tools and things to work with will be destroyed such as
machinery.
It will become such a destructive war that the sufferings and drivings of the people from Nauvoo will only be as a drip in the bucket compared with the sufferings that will take place at that time. Until half the people will not follow the church leaders at that time and half the others will die or turn away because of the sufferings that they will have to go through. But the Lord will bless those who stay with the authorities and they shall not be destroyed.
…The vision was so terrible that he asked the Lord to close it up. But he said that those who would keep the commandments and adhere to the authorities of the church would survive; and the Lord would protect them as he did the people of Israel.

Spencer
I saw foreign troops landing on the east and west coasts of America. There were tens of thousands of them. They came in large ships, some of them former cruise ships and naval escorts. They landed with thousands of vehicles, most of them laden with relief supplies, but also with large tanks and missile launchers.
Note: As we see here, the invasion is after America is devastated. (That’s usually an ideal time to invade.)
In California, some Americans tried to fight the troops because they saw them as invaders.
There were a few battles where the local people lost. The foreign troops did not punish the survivors; they just asked them to cooperate, fed them and released them.
(Visions of Glory, p.119)
George Washington saw a troop invasion.- Excerpt
…”And this time the dark shadowy angel turned his face southward. From Africa I saw an ill-omened spectre approach our land. It flitted slowly and heavily over every town and city of the latter. The inhabitants presently set themselves in battle array against each other. As I continued looking, I saw a bright angel on whose brow rested a crown of light on which was traced the word ‘Union.’ He was bearing the American flag. He placed the flag between the divided nation and said, ‘Remember, ye are brethren.’
“…And again I heard the mysterious voice saying, ‘Son of the Republic, look and learn.’ At this, the dark, shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth and blew three distinct blasts; and taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia, and Africa. Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene. From each of these countries arose thick, black clouds that were soon joined into one. And throughout this mass, there gleamed a dark red light by which I saw hordes of armed men, who, moving with the cloud, marched by land and sailed by sea to America, which country was enveloped in the volume of cloud. And I dimly saw these vast armies devastate the whole country, and burn the villages, towns and cities that I beheld springing up.”
This vision was received by George Washington in the winter of 1777. Washington told his vision to Anthony Sherman, who recounted it to Wesley Bradshaw, publisher of the National Stripes.
Gayle Smith’s Dream 1993
I also saw an invasion of the country. I saw millions of Chinese coming in along the west coast and down towards the Mexican border. I also saw Russians invading the east coast at the same time. Additionally I saw an army coming down from the north, but they didn’t get close enough for me to see who they were. I saw thousands of parachutes until they just darkened the sky. I saw individuals coming down on ropes out of the helicopters all over. I saw the beginning of this invasion that there are nuclear explosions on both coasts. I also saw a nuclear explosion north toward SLC which could be Hill Air Force Base but I really don’t know for sure. When I was shown these things I went to the Lord and asked how we could possibly survive all this. I saw that this invasion takes place on a holiday when families get together and eat which I believe could be either Thanksgiving or Christmas.
Sarah Menet
(From Menet’s book ‘There is No Death’)
While viewing the cities of light (tent cities), my focus changed again and I became aware of missiles being launched and hitting US cities. I watch as mushroom clouds started forming over many areas of the states. Some of the clouds came from missiles that I knew were fired from Russia and others were not from missiles at all but from bombs that were already within the US. These latter bombs had been hidden tin trucks and cars and were driven to certain locations and then detonated.
I specifically saw Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and NYC hit with bombs. NYC was hit with a missile, but I think Los Angeles was hit by at least one truck bomb, it not several, because I did not see any missile. I also saw a small mushroom cloud form north of SLC without the aid of a missile.
At almost the same time and in the same locations as the mushroom clouds I saw Russian and Chinese troops invading the US. The Russians were parachuting into many spots along the eastern coast. I also saw them parachuting in Utah. Chinese troops were invading from the west coast near LA. The Chinese and Russians were met with resistance from those who had survived the disease and bombs. I did not see any US military there at that time. I did not see much of this war, but was impressed that it was short in duration and that the troops lost and left.
Theme in Visions: Iniquity
Spencer, Visions of Glory
“In all of my visions I never saw a mark upon people, or heard people talking of being forced to receive a mark or microchip in order to buy and sell. It is already true that we each have a number of our name, and that number is required for any large transaction, such as buying a home or obtaining credit. That may have been part of the mark.
But, what I did see was that we had spiritually marked ourselves. This marking began perhaps thirty years before the tribulations, when the counterculture of political correctness began, and the assault on Christian values and traditions began. At first it seemed so ridiculous that it was harmless, kind of like a disease to which we were immune. Soon, however, it was recolored to equal compassion, acceptance, tolerance and equality. From there it evolved into a power with the ability to take any truth and repaint it as a lie, to take any lie and relabel it as truth. Subscribing to this thinking and tuning out the Holy Spirit marked us with darkness. It was a mark we placed upon our own soul. It was not visible to another human, but those who had marked themselves in this way could not discern the Holy Spirit, and they found themselves completely reliant upon the foreign troops, who in truth had no long-term interest in their survival, and who had many demands and rules to qualify one for assistance.
When the tribulations began it was nearly impossible for those who had received the mark of the beast to see God’s hand reaching out to lead them to safety. They were blinded to the only thing that could redeem them, and many were eventually lost. “
John M. Pontius, “Visions of Glory”, pages 134-135
Hector Sosa, Jr.
“Another dream I had was about the ocean. I was standing at night, with a full moon, on a road that had a guardrail. On the other side of the guardrail was a beach. I could hear the surf breaking against the sand and rocks. It was swishing back and forth. The water then started swishing harder and harder as if the ocean was angry. The water receded back into the ocean. I then heard a very angry feminine voice. The earth itself was crying out in frustration.
“They have polluted me,’ the earth said. “They have contaminated me. I am in constant pain. The Creator has forbidden me to cleanse myself again with water. I wait for the time when my righteous anger will be released. I will cleanse myself of this pollution. I will rid myself of the wicked sons of man. They are wicked as the sons of Adam of old.”

Vision Theme: Secret Combinations & The New World Order
Patriarch Charles Evans Excerpt
Son, I perceive thou hast grave anxieties over the perilous state of thy country, that thy soul has felt deep sorrow for its future. I have therefore come to thy relief and to tell thee of the causes that have led to this peril. Hear me attentively. Seventy-one years ago, after an awful apostasy of centuries, in which all nations were shrouded in spiritual darkness, when angels had withdrawn themselves, the voice of prophets hushed, and the light of Urim and Thummim shone not, and the vision of the seers was closed, while heaven itself shed not a ray of gladness to lighten a dark world, when Babel ruled and Satan laughed, and church and priesthood had taken their upward flight, and the voice of nations, possessing the books of the Jewish prophets, had ruled against vision and against Urim, against the further visits of angels, and against the doctrine of a church of apostles and prophets, thou knowest that then appeared a mighty angel with the solemn announcement of the hour of judgment, the burden of whose instructions pointed to dire calamities upon the present generation. This, therefore, is the cause of what thou seest and the end of the wicked hasteneth.”
My vision now became extended in a marvelous manner, and the import of the past labors of the Elders was made plain to me. I saw multitudes fleeing to the place of safety in our mountain heights. The church was established in the wilderness. Simultaneously the nation had reached an unparalled prosperity, wealth unbounded, new territory was acquired, commerce extended, finance strengthened, confidence was maintained, and peoples abroad pointed to her as the model nation, the ideal of the past realized and perfected, the embodiment of the liberty sung by poets, and sought for by sages.
“But,” continued the messenger, Thou beholdest a change. Confidence is lost. Wealth is arrayed against labor, labor against wealth, yet the land abounds with plenty for food and raiment, and silver and gold are in abundance. Thou seest also that letters written by a Jew have wrought great confusion in the finances of the nation which, together with the policy of many wealthy ones, has produced distress and do presage further sorrow.”
Factions now sprang up as if by magic; capital had entrenched itself against labor throughout the land; labor was organized against capital. The voice of the wise sought to tranquilize these two powerful factors in vain. Excited multitudes ran wildly about; strikes increased; lawlessness sought the place of regular government. At this juncture I saw a banner floating in air whereon was written the words Bankruptcy, Famine, Floods, Fire, Cyclones, Blood, Plague. Mad with rage men and women rushed upon each other. Blood flowed down the streets of cities like water. The demon of bloody hate had enthroned itself on the citadel of reason; the thirst for blood was intenser than that of the parched tongue for water. Thousands of bodies lay untombed in the streets. Men and women fell dead from the terror inspired from fear. Rest was but the precursor of the bloody work of the morrow. All around lay the mournfulness of a past in ruins. Monuments erected to perpetuate the names of the noble and brave were ruthlessly destroyed by combustibles. A voice now sounded aloud these words, Yet once again I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word yet once again signifies the removing of things that are shaken, as of things that are made; that those things that cannot be shaken may remain.”

My mother then started showing me a scenario of events that will take place beginning with a worldwide economic collapse that would take place in the month of October.
I was told it will actually begin in the US. The reason it happens is to bring down America. I don’t think they want to destroy America, they just want to bring it under their control. My mother said I would hear rumors and they will get louder and the collapse will happen quickly. We will wake up one morning and it will have happened.
After the collapse I saw marauding bands or gangs running around. People just go crazy and start rioting. They are killing because they are angry and hungry. Everything they know of value on this on this earth is being taken away from them within a few days. In a very short time there will be a famine.
I believe for the most part this famine is brought upon us. It’s premeditated and planned out. No trucks bring food deliveries. Famine is brought on quickly and the stores are cleared out within hours. A short term after the collapse we are put under FEMA and Martial law.
