An old woman of 90 from Valdres in Norway had a vision from God in 1968.
The evangelist Emanuel Minos had meetings (services) where she lived.
He had the opportunity to meet her, and she told him what she had seen.
He wrote it down, but thought it to be so unintelligible that he put it
in a drawer. Now, almost 50 years later, he understands he has to share
the vision with others.
The woman from Valdres was a very alert, reliable, awake and credible Christian, with a good reputation among all who knew her. This is what she saw:
"I saw the time just before the coming of Jesus and the outbreak of the Third World War. I saw the events with my natural eyes. I saw the world like a kind of a globe and saw Europe, land by land. I saw Scandinavia. I saw Norway. I saw certain things that would take place just before the return of Jesus, and just before the last calamity happens, a calamity the likes of which we have never before experienced.
She mentioned four waves:
1. "First before Jesus comes and before the Third World War breaks out, there will be a 'détente' like we have never had before. There will be peace between the super powers in the east and the west, and there will be a long peace. (Remember, that this was in 1968 when the cold war was at its highest. —E. Minos) In this period of peace there will be disarmament in many countries, also in Norway and we are not prepared when it (the war) comes. The Third World War will begin in a way no one would have anticipated—and from an unexpected place.
2. "A lukewarmness without parallel will take hold of the Christians, a falling away from true, living Christianity. Christians will not be open for penetrating preaching. They will not, like in earlier times, want to hear of sin and grace, law and gospel, repentance and restoration. There will come a substitute instead: prosperity (happiness) Christianity.
"The important thing will be to have success, to be something; to have material things, things that God never promised us in this way. Churches and prayer houses will be emptier and emptier. Instead of the preaching we have been used to for generations—like, to take your cross up and follow Jesus—entertainment, art and culture will invade the churches where there should have been gatherings for repentance and revival. This will increase markedly just before the return of Jesus.
3. "There will be a moral disintegration that old Norway has never experienced the likes of. People will live together like married without being married. (I do not believe the concept 'co-habitor'? existed in 1968. —E. Minos.) Much uncleanness before marriage, and much infidelity in marriage will become the natural (the common), and it will be justified from every angle. It will even enter Christian circles and we pet it—even sin against nature. Just before Jesus' return there will be TV programs like we have never experienced. (TV had just arrived in Norway in 1968. —E. Minos)
"TV will be filled with such horrible violence that it teaches people to murder and destroy each other, and it will be unsafe in our streets. People will copy what they see. There will not be only one 'station' on TV, it will be filled with 'stations.' (She did not know the word 'channel' which we use today. Therefore she called them stations. —E. Minos.) TV will be just like the radio where we have many 'stations,' and it will be filled with violence. People will use it for entertainment. We will see terrible scenes of murder and destruction one of the other, and this will spread in society. Sex scenes will also be shown on the screen, the most intimate things that takes place in a marriage." (I protested and said, "We have a paragraph that forbids this kind of thing." —E. Minos.) It will happen, and you will see it. All we have had before will be broken down, and the most indecent things will pass before our eyes.
4. "People from poor countries will stream to Europe. (In 1968 there was no such thing as immigration. —E. Minos.) They will also come to Scandinavia and Norway. There will be so many of them that people will begin to dislike them and become hard with them. They will be treated like the Jews before the Second World War. Then the full measure of our sins will have been reached (I protested at the issue of immigration. I did not understand it at the time. —E. Minos.)
The tears streamed from the old woman's eyes down her cheeks. "I will not see it, but you will. Then suddenly, Jesus will come and the Third World War breaks out. It will be a short war." (She saw it in the vision.)
"All that I have seen of war before is only child's play compared to this one, and it will be ended with a nuclear atom bomb. The air will be so polluted that one cannot draw one's breath. It will cover several continents, America, Japan, Australia and the wealthy nations. The water will be ruined (contaminated?). We can no longer till the soil. The result will be that only a remnant will remain. The remnant in the wealthy countries will try to flee to the poor countries, but they will be as hard on us as we were on them.
"I am so glad that I will not see it, but when the time draws near, you must take courage and tell this. I have received it from God, and nothing of it goes against what the Bible tells.
"The one who has his sin forgiven and has Jesus as Savior and Lord, is safe."

MaryLu Here: Since much of what this woman saw has already come true, I assume the rest will as well. Her last sentence should bring us all great peace! Praise God!
Interesting that she says those who have Jesus as their Savior and are forgiven of their sins will be safe. But she doesn't have any mention of being raptured. Still amazing that she saw all this so long ago. I'll admit I struggle with trying to make a living and not letting it become my sole purpose. It's not that I'm looking for fame, and yet I can't survive if people don't know me. It's a fine line that I have to constantly be walking. I want my books of faith and truth to be out there. And I look at them as a mission to further the gospel. But that means I must promote myself. Does that mean I fall into this pit that she mentions? When Jesus comes I want to be caught being about my Father's business. And for me that's writing books.... And everything that goes with it. The struggle is real.
ReplyDeleteKaty, I will send you an email. Being a fellow author, I understand this struggle.

ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteGreetings Highly Favored Duaghter of the King,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and powerful vision. I think there are many of us having these same feelings about what is to come, and it is becoming more clear, obvious, in our time that in this Lovely Lady's day. She is a visionary. David Wilkerson talked a lot along these same lines and that also was back in the 70 and 80"s. He saw the Apostacy in the church starting to grow. The more he spoke it the more people turned away. When this Lady say's; the true believers will be safe she may well have been talking about the rapture ?
I do believe that the seperation of the sheep and goats will continue and increase as multitudes are falling to the prosperity gospel and the charismatic movement that seems to be sweeping over christians who are well pleased to stay right where they are loving their lives here and gladly putting the blinders on to the truth !
Advent is a time of preperation to receive King Jesus. We are to cleanse ourselve's from unholyness, humble ourselves before The LORD, and wait patiently, with longing hearts for our Savior to appear.
Blessed is the name of the Lord, praise His Holy Name. Glory and praise, glory and honor to the Lamb of God.
Be blessed with gifts from on High, Sister
Yes, I believe this lady indeed meant the rapture when she said we'd be safe! Blessings to you, Brother. You've seen first hand the intense falling away of the church. How it must break our Lord's heart. I am definitely waiting in humility and longing for the Lord to return, but the patient part I'm working on!
