The President [Brigham Young] remarked that whenever any nation had commenced making arms and ammunition, it has always been with a view to the death of their fellow men and when was there a time when these implements of death were not used; and in a few years these murderous feelings will strengthen to such an extent that the work of death will commence. -- Salt Lake City

  1. There is a revelation and song (a church sister's vivid dream received Jan.18, 2009) in another restored gospel church that the U.S. in the not-too-distant future will suffer an "awful invasion". That it will be a "long war", and we will win when "the angels came down" (as it was also foretold in George Washington's Vision).

  2. These are the greatly beloved church sister's exact words describing her experience:
    "I was awakened from sleep with this experience. It was so real, like I was there. The bells were ringing from town to town, from village to village proclaiming the war was over and God had
    sent His angels to drive the enemy from off our land [U.S.A.] (like in George Washington’s vision)."

  3. Brief final note: January 18, 2009 was a Sunday.

  4. The Spirit whispered to me these verses concerning the above comments. This occurred as I was going about my daily routine. I don't know if it will be accepted:

    [2] And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.

    [3] For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. (Habakkuk 2)
