I'm unaware of any NDE's that mention an EMP. Can you reference one for me? Julie Rowe and Visions of Glory speak of cars just running out of gas.
Indeed, I have seen just a few references in NDE's to this. It is not going to be a general thing (targeted) and will depend on the vehicle as to whether or not it will be affected. Indeed, Spencer's account spoke of disabled cars, etc that still had fuel in them that they then bartered for. There is a scripture in Isaiah that speaks of the chariots no longer working for us in our day. You can guess what that is.
I have scrapped millions of dollars of Panasonic entertainment systems for jets that have not been handled properly, due to electrostatic discharge. This same effect will take out most modern car electronics. I have chosen to go with a 1994-1996 Dodge Cummins Truck with direct injection diesel and 5 speed transmission that circumvents these vulnerable systems.
They are hard to find, but will get you thru in a pinch.
Quotes on Cars Not running or No Power:
ReplyDelete(Joseph F Smith)
“I think I see two or three hundred thousand people wending (walking) their way across the great plain, enduring the nameless hardships of the journey, herding and guarding their cattle by day and by night, and defending themselves and little ones from foes on the right hand and on the left, as when they came here…They will think there are a great many hardships to endure in this manifestation of the power of God…Some might ask, what will become of the railroads? I fear that the sifting process would be insufficient were we to travel by railroads.”
[Journal of Discourses, 24:156-157]
(Spencer W Kimball)
“But if you fail to serve me (Christ): The land will be barren…The trees will be without fruit and the fields without verdure. There will be rationing and a scarcity of food and hunger sore. No traffic will jam your desolate highways. Famine will stalk rudely through your doors and the ogre cannibalism will rob you of your children and your remaining virtues. There will be pestilence uncontrollable. Your dead bodies will be piled upon the materialistic things you sought so hard to accumulate and save.”
[Conference Report, October 1961, pp. 29-34]
(Sarah Menet)
“There was complete chaos in these cities and a breakdown of normal society. There was no electricity in them either, but I don't know why or how that came to be. There were cars piled up everywhere, blocking roadways and most people then had to walk out with nothing.”
“I sensed that the electricity had failed everywhere now and that nothing was running, there was no communication or anything anywhere in the country. Nothing worked, no radios or TVs…The economy was completely gone and the electricity was also gone.”
(Alma Erickson)
“I see industries collapse. The gasoline and oil industry is symbolized to me by a great pipeline that extends out of the earth a mile or so into the sky, thence a mile to the north, and thence down to the earth. Then I see this great man-made structure is leaking badly at the south, and then it springs a leak at the north, and then it falls northward with a mighty crash…Thus it shall come to pass that the gasoline and oil business shall first fail in the south, and it shall spread to the north, until there is a complete oil and gasoline failure. And none shall be hauled over the rails because of the great failure. Traffic and industries shall cease because of the want of oil and gas, and great consternation shall seize upon man.”
(Spencer)
“Manufacturing and industry were at a virtual standstill. There were no raw materials and no money to pay the workers. Factories and global businesses shut down overnight…All of the utilities were in chaos. People tried to keep the necessities of life running, but they were sporadic and mostly offline. There were blackouts everywhere, some of them lasting many months.”
[John Pontius, Visions and Glory pp. 116-117]
(John Taylor)
“As I passed along upon my way east I saw the road full of people (walking), mostly women, with just what they could carry in bundles on their backs, traveling to the mountains on foot. I wondered how they would get through with such a small pack on their backs. It was remarkable to us [?] that there were so few men among them. It didn’t seem to me as though the cars were running, the rails looked rusty and the roads abandoned…No carriages, buggies, or cars were running…”
MOST Interesting of all, is another Vision that John Taylor had. In this other vision he uses the word “DESTROYED” instead of “not working”.
(John Taylor)
“All means of transportation, such as railroads and highways, will be destroyed; the only means of travel will be on foot, and all manufacturing of all kinds will be entirely destroyed. Be sure when you see these things come, see that you have buttons, needles and things to work with in order to make yourself clothing, thread and cloth as far as possible because all tools and every kind of machinery will be destroyed.”
