Gail's Story
(Originally prepared 21 Aug. 1996; revised Sept. 23, 1996, updated July 29, 1997)
UPDATE : March 3, 1999 - Gayle's Personal Story in Her Own Words
UPDATE : October 27, 1999 - Update from Gayle - Courtesy www.GreaterThings.com
For Those of you who know Gail, or know of her, she has a very interesting story to tell.
This story should concern every living being on earth, and cause you to truly "Come unto Christ". She has seen many earthquakes, floods, and other destructions which will come upon the earth. I have permission from Gail to place her story here for anyone who is interested in reading it, so here it is:
I would like to go on record as one who knows Gail, and has spoken with her at length. Gail claims NO authority, keys, prophetic gifts, or anything else. She is just someone who is telling her story as she has been commanded to do. If you will research these things yourself, you will find that they coincide with the scriptures on every point, but that they have been put on a local level. Read them yourself, and ask the Lord if they are true, as this is the ONLY way to know!
This is a summary of the dreams, visions, etc. received by Gail over the last several years concerning some of the things that will occur in these latter days. Gail has reviewed and corrected this.
I suppose virtually all people familiar with the Bible are aware of the prophecy in Acts 2:17-18 that-
“In the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy;...”
About nine or ten years ago I began to meet people who had experienced various apocalyptic visions and dreams of some of the same things that Gail has seen. I began to make all sorts of physical preparations, such as food storage, etc, but soon realized that by far the most important preparation is spiritual, that is, to draw as close as possible to the Lord. Since that time it has seemed that about every year I have heard new stories of the earthquakes, etc. along with express or implicit indications that that year would be the year the events would begin. Frankly, I’m more than a little tired of all of this, in part, because it really messes with my ability to keep my nose to the grindstone so that the bills get paid, etc.
Several things make Gail’s story different. First, she has had thirty years experience in receiving these dreams and visions and in detecting the deceptions of the Adversary. Second, she is the only one I’ve known that the Lord has clearly told to go on the radio about these things. Third, she has received hundreds of calls, visits, etc. from others who have seen various parts of what she has seen. Fourth, while she still has not received any personal revelations on the dates when these things are to begin, many others have. Finally, I know that she is being absolutely truthful about her experiences.
Around May-June 1996 Gail was invited to tell her story on a radio talk show in Salt Lake City, hosted by Dr. Jack Stockwell, D.C., weekdays from 7 AM to 9 or 10 AM on KTKK (630 AM) . She has been on this show about six or seven times. She has been astounded that literally hundreds of people have contacted her to tell her that they too had seen some or many of the things she had talked about and until they had heard her speak they each thought they were the only one to be shown these things. What this means is that while the events discussed here are in Gail’s words, more importantly EVERY ONE of the forthcoming events mentioned here is the collective experience of hundreds of other people as well.
Gail has received no money for appearing on this show and was unwilling to even do it until the Lord made it unmistakably clear to her that she must do this. Gail has been told that ”If the Brethren attacked her at the October 1996 General Conference and tell the people not to believe her then the sequence of events would begin in 1996.” This did not happen. Gail’s sister was killed in 1969. Shortly after that her sister began coming to her. Gail’s mother passed away in 1982. Since her mother’s “graduation” basically only her mother has come to her. The principal purpose of the visits from beyond the veil was to show her events that were shortly to occur. She was also taken over into the Spirit world and shown around, although her memories of many of the details of those visits have been taken from her. Until just two or three years ago most of what Gail was shown concerned harmful or even deadly situations, accidents, etc. that would occur to family members. Gail’s task was to warn these family members and prevent their injury which she did. During these years her family learned to always heed such warnings for they had saved them from serious injury or death time and time again.
Beginning in 1993 her mother began to show Gail a number of the cleansing type future events that could or would occur. She has been told on more than one occasion that the timing and even the occurrence of these events is conditional, subject to the behavior of those on earth.
Before getting into all the heavy stuff she has seen I think it might be best to start with the good news first.
THE GOOD NEWS: The purpose of this cleansing prior to the Lord’s return is to separate the wheat from the tares, namely those who believe in and follow Christ from those who won’t. Gail has seen that it does not matter whether one belongs to a church or not or even what church one joins. The only thing that matters is whether you will turn to Christ! Gail has been shown that during the period from the financial collapse to the third quake the righteous who are not appointed to die will be led or taken to “cities of refuge or cities of light”. Gail has seen visions of some righteous people being led out by beings of light when it is so cold that the little children are crying and the people just have the clothes on their backs.
She has shared with me several scenarios shown her that illustrate ways in which the Lord will save those who turn to Him. She was in her home and saw about 6 armed troops enter her home searching for food, weapons, ammo, etc. She also knew they had orders to arrest her and that if she were taken she would be killed. She prayed in her mind, “Lord, if it be thy will that I am not to die at this time, please save me and tell me what to do.” The spirit told her to tell the men not to touch her or they would die. The laughed and one man grabbed her. Immediately he fell dead at her feet. Within a few minutes the others had convinced themselves that the first man’s death was just a coincidence, that he had a bad heart or something. A second man started to go for her at which time she said “Please don’t touch me or you’ll die.” He ignored the warning, grabbed her and immediately fell dead at her feet. The remaining men left as fast as they could. In another scenario she saw the wild animals coming down out of the mountains, killing and eating people. Among these animals she saw groups of mountain lions, four to six to a group. (Traveling in groups is not normal behavior for these solitary and timid cats.) One of these groups of cougars approached her. Not knowing what to do, she thought, “Well praying worked before”, so once again she prayed, “Lord, if it be thy will that I’m not to die at this time please save me and tell me what to do.” The spirit said, “Reach out your hand and pet the front mountain lion on the head.” She thought to herself, “Sure I will!”, but she did it anyway. The animal immediately began rubbing against her like a house cat, rolling over, etc. and the other animals did the same. The people in the area who saw this became terrified of Gail and fled. Gail says that this is why the scriptures say that people are afraid to go up against Zion for God is with them. Then the Spirit said, “I have showed you the great power that I am willing to exercise on behalf of one person, Think what I will do f>
Transfer interrupted!
The Lord also told her on another occasion that. “I will feed you, I will clothe you, I will put a roof over your head. I will protect you. All that I require is that you believe I will do it.”
THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS WHICH GAIL HAS SEEN MOTHER-IN-LAW PASSES AWAY: The first event is the death of her mother-in-law, who was about 90 when this was first written and not in the best of health. In other words, she could die any time and is, in fact, eager to do so.
ECONOMIC COLLAPSE: Shortly after her mother in law’s death the government will cause to occur very rapidly a complete, world wide economic collapse in which money would be worthless. She is not sure how soon after her mother in law’s passing this will occur. At one time she felt it would just be a few days; now she is not sure how much time will pass. She saw lots of paper money blowing about the streets and no one bothering to pick it up. There are a number of scriptures, both in the Bible and in modern revelation which refer to Babylon falling, and an economic collapse occurring in “one day”. She has not been shown how this collapse would occur, but she has been shown on many occasions that it would occur very quickly over just a relatively few days. She says that “we will hear rumors which will get louder and then the collapse will happen very quickly.”
FIRST EARTHQUAKE: Within about 10 days after the economic collapse there would be a substantial earthquake along the Wasatch Front in Utah. She says that this quake “doesn’t seem that hard but because it lasts so long there is quite a bit of damage.”
SECOND EARTHQUAKE: Within about 15 days after the first earthquake there would be a second earthquake that would be INCREDIBLE. (I have another friend or two who have seen these quakes and they say that this second quake would be the biggest quake ever recorded by man.) The damage would be massive and would include the breaking of every dam in the mountains above the Wasatch Front. The Jordanell dam will break and then when the surge hits Deer Creek, it too will break and a huge wall of water over 80 feet high will scour Provo Canyon and everything in front of it. There will also be massive liquifaction of the ground in the west part of the valley. Buildings will be falling like dominos. There will be massive fires and floods. Travel south out of Salt Lake Valley will be blocked because the huge sand and gravel deposit at the Point of The Mountain will slide across the entire valley making it impossible to go across this loose material on foot. Also, very wide and deep crevices will open up in this same area. The crevices will be perhaps 600 feet deep and 500 to 600 feet wide.
MARTIAL LAW: Sometime between the economic collapse and the second earthquake martial law would be imposed in Utah and perhaps over the entire country. The rioting, looting, mobbings, etc. that will follow the economic collapse will be unlike anything this country has ever experienced. She says this martial law will be incredibly oppressive and brutal, worse than Nazi Germany. People caught outside after curfew will be shot. People will be prohibited from meeting, praying or leaving the area. Those caught doing so will be executed, Armed troops will have authority to search homes and seize food, arms and ammunition and anything else they choose to take. This oppression will be so severe that people will pray night and day for deliverance. The U.N. will relocate people and sort them, some will be executed and others sent to work camps. She saw armed soldiers rounding up groups of men and then shooting them. She saw that men were very scarce in the valley.
THIRD & FOURTH EARTHQUAKES: Perhaps five or six months - perhaps longer, after the second earthquake a third earthquake will hit the Wasatch Front destroying everything and everyone left in the area. Gail thinks that this quake is in response to the prayers asking for relief. This third quake will result in significant shifts in the earth’s crust that will cause a series of massive quakes all over the world. Sometime later there will be a fourth quake in the Wasatch front of such incredible magnitude that she saw Mount Timpanogos sinking away and a new mountain appearing in the middle of Utah Valley. When I asked Gail to review this in Sept. 1996 she added the following: “Last week I saw the whole valley under water. I was standing on the Point of the Mountain looking both ways to Utah Valley and Salt Lake Valley and saw all of it under water. The water was lapping up against my feet. I was up on the foothill. I also saw the cracks in the earth with molten lava coming out of them.”
PLAGUES: Following the second earthquake one or more terrible quick killing diseases would break out in the Utah area and kill many. The disease(s) will be something like the Ebola virus that kills very quickly. While Gail was talking on the radio about these plagues a man named “Robert” called in and said he had been shown these diseases and he was also shown that the governing powers controlling the troops would be responsible for unleashing the disease on the people. Gail agreed with this. According to both of them the entire area from Northern Arizona to southern Idaho would be sealed off and turned into a “dead zone.” They said that the purpose for all of this is to kill Christians and particularly the LDS.
U. S. INVADED: Shortly after the second earthquake the United States will be attacked by invading forces. Russia will invade the East coast and China the West coast. The invasion will include missile attacks. She was shown that the invasion would occur when people were eating and drinking which Gail believes to be Thanksgiving, but possibly Christmas. There will be nuclear attacks on both coasts, Las Vegas, and perhaps in Utah.
BEGINNING OF THE MARK OF THE BEAST: She and others have also been shown some events involving the leadership of the LDS Church. The governing power(s) would threaten to exterminate the entire church if the leaders did not cooperate. The church leaders agree to cooperate with the corrupt government rather than trust in and turn to the Lord. The deal is that the Church leaders will tell the LDS people to bring their food storage into central church controlled locations which will then be shared among all the members. However, instead the Church turns everything over to the government. Then the government, (probably U.N. controlled) requires that people receive an implanted computer chip in their right hand or forehead before they can draw anything out of the storehouse(s). This will be the beginning of the “Mark of the Beast” in the world. Gail says, “Those who wake up at this point and refuse to take the mark will have their heads cut off.” Revelations speaks of people being beheaded and also says that those who do take the “Mark of the Beast” will lose their salvation and exaltation. It is definitely much better to be beheaded than lose everything by accepting the mark - besides, they will be resurrected fairly quickly anyway. [The scriptures on the “mark of the beast” are in Revelations 13:15-18, 14:9-11, 16:2, 19:20 & 20:4] She was also shown that the government would not keep its part of the deal with the Church leaders and after getting the food storage would proceed to do its very best to exterminate the church and its members. Based on what Gail has been shown it looks like the purpose of the martial law, at least in Utah and adjoining areas, will be to contain the people in these areas so that they will die as a result of disease, famine, etc. What Gail and others have seen fits precisely with the “covenant with death” that Isaiah saw the latter day church leaders entering into, which covenant would be “disannulled” and the people would be “trodden upon” anyway. Isaiah 28 beginning at verse 14.
STATE OF THE LDS CHURCH IN THE LATTER DAYS: For those LDS who believe that “all is well in Zion” and that the Brethren would never lead us astray, you might consider the profoundly negative things that the Lord has to say in 2 Nephi 28 about one in the Church in the latter days (it could only be the presiding officer of the church) who wrongly teaches that “all is well in Zion.” (It’s not likely that whoever it is will use those exact words but the essence of his message will be the same.) I find nothing in the scriptures to support the proposition that the “Brethren will never lead the people astray.” In fact, the Lord has said in several different places to “trust not in the arm of flesh” but rather to look only to the Lord and only trust in Him and His revealed word as found both in the Scriptures and personal revelation via the Spirit. See e.g., 2 Nephi 28:31-32; D&C 1:19-20; D&C 45:56-57; & Matt 24:37 (Inspired Revision).
In fact, what the scriptures have to say about the Church in the latter days is that the Gentile church (Ephraim) would get seriously off track. Before considering these scriptures I recommend pondering Joseph Smith’s last prophetic dream which he had the night before his murder in Carthage as found on pages 393-394 of “The Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith” compiled by Joseph Fielding Smith. In that dream Joseph saw himself returning to a beautiful farm he had owned in Kirtland, Ohio. Only now the fields were weed filled, fences down, and the barn was a mess with its doors and windows out and the floor torn up. While he was standing in the dilapidated barn a group of men approached, some with knives, and threatened him saying the property was theirs now and they would not give it back. Joseph said in effect that while he still legally owned it, never having sold it or given it to anyone he did not particularly want it back. Then a second group of men also carrying knives, etc., entered and began arguing with the first group over the property. Joseph just walked away while they argued among themselves. Since Joseph never owned a farm at Kirtland the farm must be symbolic of something else, undoubtedly the Church.
Now to the scriptural evidence concerning the state of the LDS Church in the Latter days.
ISAIAH:
Of all the Prophets Isaiah seems to have the most to say about the LDS Church in the
latter days. I’ll begin with some Isaiah scriptures in the Book of Mormon since there is no question that these apply to our days.
2 Nephi 19:13-16 (Is. 9): The people do not seek the Lord so in ”one day” the Lord will “cut off”
(cause to die) “the head” or “the ancient” (the Pope) and “the tail” or “the prophet that teacheth
lies” (could only be an LDS Prophet). He then says “the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.” See also 2 Nephi 13:12 & 28:14. If a Pope (possible an Eastern Orthodox Patriarch but more likely a Pope) and an LDS Prophet die on the same day then you will know that that Prophet was “the prophet who teacheth lies”.
Is. 22:15-25: Describes “Shebna, which is over the house” (an LDS President and Prophet) whom the Lord will “drive...from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down” (be driven from office in disgrace) and be replaced by “my servant Eliakim”. Thus, Isaiah prophecies of two separate LDS prophets, one who teaches lies and will die in office and Shebna who will be driven from office, who are seriously off course and not acceptable to the Lord.
Is 28: Verses 1-13 describe the “drunkards of Ephraim” who “are on the head of the fat valleys” (rule over the prosperous valleys of Utah). The “drunkards” are so drunk with pride that they err and are “out of the way” and “err in vision” and “stumble in judgment”. For this they are “trodden under feet” (destroyed). Then, beginning at verse 14 Isaiah describes the “covenant with death” entered into by the “scornful men who rule this people in Jerusalem” (the Prophet and other Brethren in Salt Lake City). Significantly, in verses 2-3 Isaiah refers to a “mighty and strong one” who “as a tempest” shall “cast down to the earth... the drunkards of Ephraim”. Compare this with D&C 85:7 & Ezek. 34:23-24.
The unhappy state of the latter day Church seems to be one of the recurring themes throughout Isaiah. I am quite certain this message is a big reason why the Savior and earlier prophets of this latter day dispensation wanted us to see but could not expressly mention, so they simply said “Read Isaiah”.
EZEKIEL:
Read 33:30-33 and the entire Chapter 34 referring to the latter days and “shepherds who feed not the sheep”
MORMON & NEPHI:
Nephi in 2 Nephi 28 and Mormon in Mormon 8 (particularly beginning at verse 35) describe the errors of the LDS church that the Lord showed to them for the benefit of those in this dispensation with ears to hear and eyes to see. Both prophets describe similar problems including rejecting Christ and the Holy Ghost (rejecting the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost), pride, materialism and neglecting the poor in order to build imposing buildings.
Recall Pres. Benson’s profound message on pride as being “the sin of Zion”. Ensign, May, 1989, pp. 4-7.
JESUS CHRIST:
The Lord in 3 Nephi 26:6-11 describes a “trial of faith” that He (Christ) would give those who received the record (the LDS). If they passed the trial they would receive the greater things from the sealed portion of the plates. Since the LDS have not received these things it’s obvious that the LDS as a whole have failed the Lord’s trial of faith. See also additional statements of the Savior in which He describes the condemnation of and His displeasure with the Saints. D&C 84:49-59, 1:19-20; 45:56-57 and 107:81-84 (if the Prophet can’t err why then did the Lord establish a procedure for impeaching the Prophet?)
Because the Church would reject Christ and His Gospel (by rejecting the doctrine of the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost, the profound experience in which the natural man dies and one is reborn as a son or daughter of God, D&C 39:5-6), Jesus told us at least 4 separate times in 3rd Nephi that the Lamanites would tread down the gentiles. 3 Nephi 16:15; 20:16; 21:12; & 21:22.
For more information on the baptism of fire see Addendum JOSEPH SMITH: “We have heard men who hold the priesthood remark that they would do anything they were told to do by those who preside over them [even] if they knew it was wrong; but such obedience as this is worse than folly to us; it is slavery in the extreme; and the man who would thus willingly degrade himself, should not claim a rank among intelligent beings, until he turns from his folly.
A man of God would despise the idea. Others, in the extreme exercise of their almighty authority have taught that such obedience was necessary, and that no matter what the saints were to do by their presidents they should do it without any questions. When Elders of Israel will so far indulge in these extreme notions of obedience as to teach them to the people, it is generally because they have it in their hearts to do wrong themselves.” Joseph Smith in the “Millennial Star, Vol 14, Number 38, pages 593-595.
BRIGHAM YOUNG:
“I am more afraid that this people have so much confidence in their leaders that they will not inquire for themselves of God whether they are led by Him. I am fearful they settle down in a state of blind self-security, trusting their eternal destiny in the hands of their leaders with a reckless confidence that in itself would thwart the purposes of God in their salvation, and weaken the influence they could give to their leaders, did they know for themselves, by the revelations of Jesus, that they are led in the right way. Let every man and woman know, by the whisperings of the Spirit of God to themselves, whether their leaders are walking in the path the Lord dictates, or not.” Discourses of Brigham Young, John A Widtsoe, pg. 136
“The First Presidency have a right of great influence over this people; and if we should get out of the way and lead this people to destruction, what a pity it would be! How can you know whether we lead you correctly or not? Can you know by any other power than that of the Holy Ghost? I have uniformly exhorted the people to obtain this living witness, each for themselves; then no man on earth can lead them astray.” Discourses of Brigham Young, pg. 137
The above material is certainly not all the material on point but should be more than sufficient to get the message across. In fact, I have not yet found anything in any of the four standard works of scripture which says anything other than the Church in the Latter Days gets seriously off track. ONE CAN ONLY TRUST IN CHRIST!
WHEN DOES THIS SEQUENCE OF EVENTS BEGIN?
Gail has not been told exactly when the chain of events would begin. She has been given the following information: In September of 1995 her mother appeared and told her that the economic collapse would be “in October.” She was not told which October. When she began getting all the information about the events of the latter days she was told that these things would occur “soon, very, very soon.” Around the latter part of August or the first part of September 1996 she was told that the “great and terrible day of the Lord is here.” Around early Sept. 1996 her mother came to her and told her that the “Abomination of Desolation was beginning.”
After one of her radio shows in 1996, a woman called and wanted to talk to Gail because she wanted to know how much she should believe her five year old son. As the story unfolded, her son was looking at the grass fires on the west side of Utah lake that occurred in July of 1996. While watching the fires he said “Mom, that’s what it’s going to be like after the earthquake.” When she asked who had been telling him about the earthquake, he answered “Jesus, momma.” The rest of the story is that he asked to look at a calendar for 1996. This boy can not yet read or write and is just barely learning some letters and numbers. As he leafed through the pages of the calendar he stopped at the month of November and pointed to Tuesday Nov. 19 and told his mom that was the day of the big earthquake. Gail told the boy’s mother that if she had a son like that she would believe him.
Dr. Jack Stockwell also had an experience in which he saw a timeline showing earthquakes in the world from the 1950's into the year 2000+. On this timeline each quake was marked by a vertical line. Other than markers for the years and decades the only date shown him on the timeline was “November 1996" which appeared over one of the biggest lines on the chart indicating an incredibly massive quake.
Navajo and Hopi prophecies say the destructions would begin in the year in which they have no crops. 1996 is such a year for they did not even plant crops this year.
CONCLUSION: As I said at the beginning, while none of the stories I’ve heard over the last ten years about precisely when these events are to begin has yet been correct, that does not mean that the information given here is wrong. Each person has to take these matters to the Lord and let the Lord tell you what you should do. I do have a very uncomfortable itch in my bones that tells me that the cleansing events must begin sometime soon, certainly within the next few years. What is the Lord trying to tell you?
Is Gail Being Deceived? When I talked to her about the possibility of her being deceived she said she doesn’t think so. She explained that since she began having the experiences with her sister and mother Satan has come to her many times and in many different guises. Each time she has detected him and discovered his deceptions. She says that his deceptions have a different feel than do her mother’s appearances. Every one of the events discussed here has been shown to Gail by her mother.
The final conclusion remains the same. It is incumbent upon each recipient of this material to take these matters to the Lord and learn the truth directly from Him.
UPDATE JULY 29, 1997
Warning Process identified as the “Gathering of Eagles”: Sometime around May-June 1997 Gail received a call from Menno Pauls, a man in Vancouver, B.C. He explained that he had obtained a copy of an earlier version of this material, he had received much the same information and wanted to talk with her about their common experiences. She, of course, was delighted to talk with him. During their conversation he shared these experiences. About 1974 he began to receive basically the same information about future events that Gail has received. He was then given the names and sometimes the addresses of specific people that he was to go to and tell them what he had been shown. At the time he owned a window washing business and was unable to leave it without someone taking his place. He was told to go and see the people he had been directed to see and that his business would be taken care of. He then said that he literally had angels washing windows for him while he was away. In 1981 he was told to sell his business. Since he sold his business he has had sufficient means for his needs and has been sent to more people all over the world to tell them about the future events he has been shown. Recently he was told that this process he was engaged in was called “the gathering of eagles”. See Matt 24:28. He was also shown that at some point many will be literally picked up from wherever they are and taken by the Spirit to places of refuge. Matt. 24:41-42 Many of those taken up will be terrified because of not understand what is happening. The role of the “eagles” is to explain to those people what is happening to calm their fears and comfort them. Others engaged in the warning process that I am aware of include Gordon Michael Scallion, Dumitru Dudiman, and “To His Glory Ministries”, in Syracuse, New York. The prophecies of Dumitru Dudiman are available on the InterNet (just search for this name) as are the prophetic experiences of several others at the “To His Glory Ministry” site, where I find the prophetic rhymes of “Jo Ann G.” to be particularly interesting. While I have not searched the net for Gordon Michael Scallion’s information I’d be very surprised if at least some of his information was not there.
METEOR TO HIT EARTH: Some months ago Gail’s mother came to her and showed her a large meteor/comet hitting earth. There would be little warning, perhaps a few hours or a day or two. It would fragment into pieces and impact in the western U.S. and the Pacific ocean. The man from Vancouver was shown that it would have a sterilizing effect killing a third of the life in the ocean and a lot of other plant and animal life. He also was shown that it would generate a huge tidal wave 500 feet or more high that would hit the entire west coast. Neither Gail nor her friend from Vancouver have any information on when or where in the sequence of events this meteor will occur.
UPDATE August 26, 1997
Gail has been told that October the 10th and 29th are significant days. Gail has also seen great, strong winds blowing throughout Utah. The first quake does much more damage than previously thought or seen, due to the length of time of the shaking. The first two earthquakes happen in the early morning, and the second two happen in the afternoon. The time period between the second and third quakes could be months, or it could be years! There will be phenominal fires after the second quake. The third quake will happen in some April in the future. After the third quake, there will be water shooting up from the Great Salt Lake, and the lake surface will be burning. Water will fill both the Salt Lake and Utah Valleys. Before the 4th quake we must be under Jesus Christ's protection in "cities of light" in order to survive. And for the record, Gail has discussed the time when she will be persecuted, and how shortly after this happens these things will begin; well, the persecution is taking place as of this update!
I myself have also seen many of these things in dreams or visions, and know numerous others who have also. There have been a lot of people who have listened to Gail, and have decided that since these things did not occur in 1996, they are not going to occur.
These people are wrong! We must remember that everything is variable, depending upon men's actions here upon the earth. I know that these woes and destruction's will occur, because I have seen them, and have read and studied the scriptures. We must each look inside ourselves, and decide what we must do to "Come unto Christ" and become spiritually prepared for his judgements to be released upon the earth. ~Enoch144
ATTACK ON IRAQ IS “BEGINNING OF THE END”
FEBRUARY 12, 1998: URGENT WARNING FROM GAYLE’S MOTHER
(SECOND REVISION Sat. 2/21/98)
In a telephone conversation with Gayle (of “Gail’s Story” and “Gail’s Story Updated”) this morning, Sat. Feb. 14, 1998, Gayle told me that her mother had come to her two mornings ago Feb. 12, with a grave warning. Before I repeat the warning from Gayle’s mother I want to first tell you about the message Gayle received about three weeks ago as she asking the Lord about when things were going to start happening. Gayle was seeking understanding because she was deeply concerned about the confluence of such current events as:
1) the obvious growing shakiness of the global financial situation;
2) the crisis in Iraq precipitated by Saddam Hussein’s refusal to allow the UN weapons inspectors to do their job, the insistence of Pres. Clinton that the weapons inspectors must be allowed to continue, the U.S. military preparations for a military strike on Iraq, and Russia and China’s stern warnings that an attack on Iraq is totally unacceptable and will mean war; and:
3) the huge turmoil over the Clinton-Monica Lewinsky sex scandal.
In response to her earnest prayer she received from the Lord the message that “NOW IS THE HOUR. THE HOUR HAS COME”
During a conversation this morning, Feb. 19, 1998, Gayle mentioned that on Oct. 1, 1997 she was told that “In all things there is a point of no return and we’ve reached that point.”
On Thursday morning Feb. 12, 1998 Gayle’s long deceased mother again returned and gave her the following message.
“The military base closure around the nation is like plucking a bird of its feathers. If you take them one at a time they will be gone before the bird realizes it can no longer fly. That we will be defenseless before we realize it.”
Gayle then said that her mother went on to say:
“If our President invades or attacks Iraq that it will be an all out war. That it will be leading up to the invasion of this country (United States) because they have everything in line. That they will be able to collapse the economy of the United States. They want the troops away from the United States so they can initiate the economic collapse and martial law, to take away personal weapons and the military will not be here to defend us. And then they invade.”
Gayle said her mother told her, “THIS IS A WARNING. WAKE UP AMERICA.”
NEW MATERIAL: Since I originally wrote this the following additional pieces of information have come to me:
A microbiologist named Larry Wayne Harris (Mr. Harris has a web site that I found at "http://norden1.com/~hawkins/CIVIL.HTM” in one search using his full name with Infoseek) has an audio cassette tape out in which he talks about ways biological weapons have been brought into the US, including by Iraqi women who’ve entered the US carrying vials of anthrax and perhaps other biotoxins secreted in vials in their body cavities, and that these toxins are ready to be released here. (Mr Harris’s story is spelled out in totally believable, bone chilling detail at the above web site.)
[ADDED Sat. 2/21/98] Mr. Harris has been arrested in Las Vegas along with Mr. William Leavitt for possession of Anthrax. The media has labeled them as terrorists. Mr. Leavitt is married, the father of three children and a former Bishop of the Logandale Third Ward of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Information on the web site of the “Las Vegas Review-Journal” (I found it in my first search for “Larry Wayne Harris”. Yesterday there was only one reference that Infoseek brought up, today the same search brought up 23 references.) provides information on this story and good biographical background information on these men. My question is why now has the government arrested and smeared these men who say they have developed antidotes to Anthrax and other biotoxins??? The evidence supports Harris and Leavitt. The federal government action strikes me as an extremely ominous move. [End of addition]
Now, add to the above information about the biological weapons the possibility of at least some of the purportedly 100 or so Russian suitcase size nuclear weapons that are apparently unaccounted for and that makes for the potential of a very nasty surprise package. [A number of people, including Gayle, have been shown nuclear explosions in the US and in Utah.]
[ADDED Sat. 2/21/98] The wife of a good friend works in material support (basically a huge parts department) at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. During the Gulf War this base and their department was a major source of support for repair parts for the planes and personnel over in the Golf. At that time their department could locate and ship needed parts, etc. within a few hours. Since then that capability at Hill has been completely dismantled. It now takes up to 10 DAYS to even find a single part. The morale among personnel in this department is below rock bottom.
[ADDED Sat. 2/21/98] The McNeil-Lehrer Report on PBS has reported that not one of the countries in the middle east or other allies such as Japan that supported the Gulf War financially have agreed to support Clinton's threatened strike on Iraq. Does this look like as big a set-up to any one else as it does to me? [End of 2/21/98 addition]
I have received several messages from a prophetic discussion group at “prophetic@revival.gen.nz” concerning the following:
1. The timing and content of the current big hit “Titanic” is no coincidence. It is rather a divine message to us of what is about to happen to the US. I’m told the movie concerns an adulterous love affair on the doomed ship between a man who subsequently drowns and another man’s wife. The Titanic allegory is as profound at that level as it is at the level of the suddenness of the destruction about to occur to those who are living it up in the lap of luxury on the doomed Titanic. [This is completely in accord with the number of biblical prophecies from both the old and new testament of the destruction of “Babylon” in the last days in “one hour” and in “one day”. Dumitru Dudiman has told us that he was told specifically that the US is the “Babylon” of the last days spoken of in the scriptures. A simple search on the web for “Dumitru Dudiman” will find several sites containing his extensive prophecies.]
2. A man, identified as “John”, wrote on Feb. 17, 1998 that after reflecting on the warnings to William Cohen from Russian diplomats that if the US attacked Iraq (quoting John) “it could very possibly start a world war”, he (John) was prompted by the Spirit to pray as follows, ”Just and true are thy ways thou King of saints. Lord, let they judgments come that the harvest may be reaped, for your judgments are true and righteous altogether.”
In addition to the attack on Iraq, it’s widely known that North Korea is apparently poised to attack South Korea at any moment. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that to North Korea the best time to attack would be right after we attack Iraq, especially if the US is hit with either or both anthrax/nuclear weapons.
Many, including Isaiah and Gayle, have been shown the invasion of the US by Russia on the east coast and China on the west coast. Isaiah says that they invading forces, after accomplishing great destruction will be stopped by divine intervention and themselves destroyed &/or driven back. One man was told that the invasion would occur after the US ships troops to Korea.
I’ve also heard that the Warburgs, the most powerful Illuminati family, is totally committed to the US attacking Iraq because (1) that would make all the Illuminati “banksters” wealthier because they finance both sides, and (2) it would be a major move to depopulating the world. The well known report from the Club of Rome states the Illuminati objective of reducing the world’s population to about half a billion, a bit less than 10% of its current population.
COMMENT ON THE ILLUMINATI: [THEY’LL LEARN THE HARD WAY THAT GOD IS IN CHARGE] While this handful of the world’s most obscenely wealthy appear to believe that the war they are now fomenting will bring to final fruition the objectives they’ve been working towards since their founding in 1776, they are profoundly oblivious to the fact that they are nothing more than a besom of destruction in the Lord’s hands.
God has always used the wicked to scourge and punish the wicked. Likewise will these unimaginably selfish and wicked scourgers, who with unfathomably obscene arrogance think “they are in control”, themselves “fall into the pit which they have digged” as has been long prophesied and also be cleansed from the earth. to receive their oh so well deserved rewards.

ADDENDUM ON THE BAPTISM OF FIRE
By Randy Klimt
[NOTE: I’ve tried to write this entire paper for all people without regard to their faith or lack thereof. Of all the people mentioned only Gail, Dr. Stockwell and I are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints also called “LDS” or “Mormons”. However, because of our church affiliation, I’ve written some of this more for LDS with scriptural references being mostly LDS scriptures. Those who are not LDS need not be concerned about the LDS stuff. WHAT REALLY MATTERS IS WHETHER ONE WILL TURN TO CHRIST AND TRUST IN HIM REGARDLESS OF WHAT CHURCH ONE BELONGS TO OR NOT. I’ve added this addendum for those LDS who may be interested in more information on the doctrine of the baptism of fire. It may also help them understand why much of the cleansing tribulations will begin around Utah. That reason being where much is given much is expected, and it’s apparent from the scriptures that the Lord knew the LDS would not do all that well with what they would receive. IMPORTANT: read all the scriptures cited.]
The doctrine of the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost is THE CENTRAL TRUTH WHICH THE LATTER DAY SAINTS HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY COMMANDED TO TEACH and which the Book of Mormon expressly says the Latter Day Saints will largely reject. THE “LOST” DOCTRINE OF THE BAPTISM OF FIRE is that every person must seek for and obtain their own remission of sins through an event or experience known by many names including “ the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost.” Remission of sins DOES NOT COME thru or with mere baptism in water. While there is a process of qualifying for it, the actual Baptism of Fire and the Holy Ghost is a profound, recognizable EXPERIENCE that, among other things, changes human nature by expunging the natural man, fills one with the pure love of Christ, and bestows a remission of sins. It is the application of the Savior’s atonement to one’s life. It is THE WAY one becomes clean and therefore eligible to return to Father’s presence. It is the mighty change that fills one’s heart with charity and enables a group of such changed people to establish a true Zion Society. Moses 7:27; 4 Nephi 1. (The Latter Day Saints have conclusively demonstrated that a true Zion society can not be established with those who are still “natural men”.)
One of the big keys to seeing the central importance of the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost is to become aware that the scriptures use many synonyms to refer to it including the following: come unto Christ; conversion; sanctification; born again; becoming a son of God; becoming clean; becoming as a little child; born of the Spirit; becoming a new creature in Christ; hope; entering into the strait and narrow path; having clean hands and a pure heart; mighty change of heart; receiving the Holy Ghost; regeneration; remission of sins; partaking of the goodness of God; and spiritual healing. All these synonyms and more can be most often identified by recognizing one or more of the effects of this mighty change of heart then being discussed. Once you know the synonyms you see the doctrine discussed literally everywhere. The Book of Mormon is full of examples of the experience such as King Benjamins’s people, Alma the Younger, Enos, the Lamanite lynch mob in Helaman 5, King Lamoni, etc. The greatest example is found in 3 Nephi chap. 19.
Coming fully unto Christ through the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost is the central message of the Book of Mormon. It is the principle doctrine restored in the restoration. Only remnants of this doctrine remain in the Bible. It is also the heart of the Savior’s message in 3rd Nephi. Consider-
THE SAVIOR’S OWN STATEMENTS OF HIS GOSPEL
D&C 39
5 And verily, verily, I say unto you, HE THAT RECEIVETH MY GOSPEL RECEIVETH ME; AND HE THAT RECEIVETH NOT MY GOSPEL RECEIVETH NOT ME.
6. And this is my gospel, - repentance and baptism by water, and then cometh the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost, even the Comforter, which showeth all things, and teacheth the peacable things of the kingdom.
In at least four additional places, Jesus defines His gospel as including the element of the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost. D&C 33:11-12; 3rd Nephi 9:13-22; 11:28-41; & 27:13-29. See also Nephi’s unsurpassed discussion in 2nd Nephi beginning at 31:1 through 32:6 and Enoch’s retelling of Adam’s explanation of the Gospel and the account of Adam’s complete baptism in Moses 6:40-68.
COMMANDMENTS TO TEACH THE FULNESS INCLUDING THE BAPTISM OF FIRE
D&C 19
31 And of tenets thou shalt not talk, but thou shalt declare repentance and faith on the Savior, and remission of sins by baptism, and by fire, yea, even the Holy Ghost.
32 Behold, this is a great and the last COMMANDMENT which I shall give unto you concerning this matter; for this shall suffice for thy daily walk, even unto the end of thy life.
33 And misery thou shalt receive if thou wilt slight these counsels, yea, even the destruction of thyself and property.
See also D&C 49:11-14; 53:3-4; & 55:1-3. Also, in 3rd Nephi 11, the Lord, after again defining His gospel in verses 31-38 to include “fire and the Holy Ghost”, then says in verses 39-41:
39 Verily, verily, I say unto you, that this is my doctrine, and whoso buildeth upon this buildeth upon my rock, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against them.
40 And whoso shall declare more or less than this, and establish it for my doctrine, the same cometh of evil, and is not built upon my rock; but he buildeth upon a sandy foundation, and the gates of hell stand open to receive such when the floods come and the winds beat upon them.
41 Therefore, go forth unto this people, and DECLARE THE WORDS WHICH I HAVE SPOKEN, unto the ends of the earth.
The commandment to “teach nothing but repentance unto this generation” (D&C 6:9; 11:9; 14:8; & 18:6) is well known. In D&C 19 the Lord makes it clear that “repentance” is one of the many synonyms for the rebirth in the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost. In D& C 19, after three times commanding Martin Harris to repent (vs. 13, 15 and 20) and then in verse 21 commanding Martin to “preach naught but repentance”, finally, in verse 31 the Lord restates and clarifies this commandment, telling Martin to “declare repentance, and faith on the Savior, and remission of sins by baptism, and by fire, yea, even the Holy Ghost.” Clearly Jesus was not giving Martin two different commandments about what to preach, but only explaining it in different words.
JOSEPH SMITH
The Prophet Joseph plainly taught the paramount importance of the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost: You might as well baptize a bag of sand as a man, if not done in view of the remission of sins and getting of the Holy Ghost. Baptism by water is but half a baptism, and is good for nothing without the other half - that is, the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
The Savior says, “Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” “Though we or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.” according to Galations 1:8. Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, at pg 314.
The baptism of water, without the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost attending it is of no use; they are necessarily and inseparable connected. An individual must be born of water and the Spirit in order to get into the kingdom of God. TPJS at pg. 360. The reason that baptism by water is useless without the baptism or fire and the Holy Ghost, is because the baptism of fire applies the Savior’s atonement to that person and grants a remission of sins. Without the remission of sins the Savior’s atonement might as well never have happened. This is why rejecting the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost is a rejection of Christ Himself. D&C 39:5.
Only those whose garments have been washed clean in His Blood may return to the presence of God. D&C 88:21; Mormon 9:6, 14; Moroni 10:32-33 Every person is under the condemnation and bondage of sin until receiving their own remission of sins through the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost. D&C 84:49-59
SCRIPTURES INDICATING THE LDS WOULD REJECT THE GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST
The original Nephi and Mormon both speak of the sins of the Latter Day Saints in 2 Nephi 28 and Mormon 8. Among the several charges they both make against us are the following: “Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ?”, Mormon 8:38; “they shall teach with their learning, and deny the Holy Ghost, which giveth utterance. And they deny the power of God, the Holy One of Israel;...” 2 Nephi 28:4-5; “Yea, wo be unto him that hearkeneth unto the precepts of men, and denieth the power of God, and the gift of the Holy Ghost!”, 2 Nephi 28:26. Also in 2 Nephi 32:7, Nephi, after writing the plainest, most complete explanation in all of scripture of the doctrine of Christ and the necessity of the baptism of fire (2 Nephi 31:1-32:6), is forbidden by the Spirit from writing more and then sorrowfully pens this sobering lament:
And now I, Nephi, cannot say more; the Spirit stoppeth mine utterance, and I am left to mourn because of the unbelief, and the wickedness, and the ignorance, and the stiffneckedness of men; for they will not search knowledge, nor understand great knowledge, when it is given unto them in plainness, even as plain as word can be.”
This could only be referring to the Latter Day Saints, since they are the ones who would have his record. Much of the information on the baptism of fire is in “Experiencing The Mighty Change”. It’s by far the best work on this topic I know of. For more details I refer you to this excellent resource. I’ve heard that Deseret Book carried it; perhaps they still do.
NOTE TO OTHER CHRISTIANS ABOUT THE DOCTRINE OF THE BAPTISM OF FIRE
The most well known example remaining in the Bible of the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost is of course the account of the Day of Pentacost and a few additional accounts in Acts. Unfortunately, the Adversary has been so successful in his efforts to suppress this doctrine that there is not enough information left in the Bible to really pull all of the pieces together. However, since the Lord is in charge and knew that all of this would happen, I’m confident that it’s all part of His plan and that among those who trust in Him whatever misunderstandings there are about this and all other doctrines will all be cleared up as needed after He returns to reign during the Millennium. The real essence of true religion is in the two divine laws of love, namely to love God and our fellow man and act accordingly in all things. All else is simply corollaries to these governing laws of love.
AUGUST 5, 1998
In a conversation I had with Gail this morning, she told me that for the last 3 weeks or so she has dreams, etc every night all impressing on her how close the cleansing tribulations are and how urgent and vital it is to turn to Christ. During this time she's been repeatedly shown numerous instances of the coming martial law situation and how terribly oppressive it will be. For example, those without the mark of the beast will be killed and/or imprisoned.
She's also seen repeatedly an angry dark sky full of huge, dark, roiling clouds that are just about to bust loose with terrible storms.
Something not generally reported is what she has been shown starting last fall and winter about the magnetic pole change that will occur and how this will be accompanied by unprecedentedly severe winds in the range of 300-400 MPH that will scour literally everything off the earth where those winds touch. On one occasion she was up in Salt Lake, about 45-55 minutes from her home in Alpine, UT. She somehow sensed or was shown that the magnetic pole shift was beginning and she immediately began heading home in her car.
Before she get home the pole shift was complete and the scourging winds had begun.
Within these last 3 weeks she's also seen repeated scenes of these awesome winds blowing and the accompanying clean sweep of all that these winds touch.
Within the last couple of months a very strong tornado hit a small town north of Kansas City and basically wiped out the downtown. I recall one report that said how the winds had literally pulled an entire basement with walls and floor right out of the ground. These tornadic winds were around 150-200 MPH. Imagine what winds TWICE that powerful will do.

GAIL'S STORY - PRELUDE TO DESTRUCTION
FOLKS, PUT ON THE FILTER HERE, BUT THERE IS SOME STUFF HERE THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT. THE ONE ABOUT MARTIAL LAW BEING IMPLEMENTED AND THE GOVERNMENT BEING ABLE TO REMOVE ALL OF OUR FOOD AND PERSONAL RESOURCES REALLY HAS ME CONCERNED SINCE THE RECENT SIGNING OF THE EXECUTIVE ORDER TO BE ABLE TO SEIZE WHATEVER THE GUBBIMINT DEEMS NECESSARY:

I say to Israel, the Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as president of this Church to lead you astray. It is not in the program. It is not in the mind of God. If I were to attempt that the Lord would remove me out of my place, and so he will any other man who attempts to lead the children of men astray from the oracles of God and from their duty.” (Discourses of Wilford Woodruff [Bookcraft, 1946], pp. 212–13.)
ReplyDeleteI found this quote about the prophet won't lead us astray. That the Lord would not permit it. The Lord sees things differently from us somehow the past, present, and future is continuallly before him that's how he knows who would be faithful or not. I find That Gail is being deceived. Because it tells me as a reader not to follow the prophet, when that's what we are commanded to do . When Joseph smith was commanded to do polygamy he wasnt obedient at first until an angel with a flaming sword stopped him and said he would be cut off if he does not obey the Lord. So I don't think the Lord would allow the saints to be deceived because this is HIS church. He is our sheperd and we are his sheep. Now all the symbolism in the scriptures about the end could mean one thing or another. Plus I live in northern Arizona and a apostle came here recently and told us that we are safe as long as we keep the commandments and people have been gathering here inspired by the Spirt as a place of refuge. it's not gonna be a dead zone. And I stand by President Monson and the future prophet that they will never lead us astray and the Lord is continually with them forever and he is in charge of HIS church.
You are dead on.....we will not be lead a stray if we follow the Prophet.....everyone can believe what they want.....remember Satan is strong too and can lead people a stray and in some cases this has happened.
DeleteI enjoyed reading this article. I to believe things are ready to happen but I really have a hard time with the prophet and the church not trusting in God and going with the government. I do believe we have to be in tune and have personal revelation but that doesn't mean the prophet isn't Gods mouth piece and can still give us direction. I do belive there will be "prophets and apostles" that may deceive but not THE Prophet. We see this has already happen in the Saviors life. He was betrayed by one of his very own. I believe this will happen again. That is when we have to have our own personal revelation and guideness. Here is and excellent article about Following the Prophet.You can find it at lds.org

Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet
First Presidency Message
Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet
President Ezra Taft Benson,
Of the Quorum of the Twelve
(Address given Tuesday, February 26, 1980 at Brigham Young University)
A couple years ago I wouldn't have believed a lot of what is written here regarding the church going astray. I now know this is happening, and the spirit has taught me a lot about the gentiles and their rejection of the fulness of the gospel. The times of the gentiles are soon coming to an end.
ReplyDeleteI have experienced the baptism of fire, so I can testify that it is a true event. Very few LDS even know what it is, another testament of our awful situation.
I agree with the previous commenter - I have experienced the baptism by fire as an 11 year old. I am not aware of experiencing the gift of tongues, etc at that time.
