Werdin D'Orante
Abbot Werdin D'Orante (12th
Century):
: "The great Monarch and the great Pope will precede
Antichrist. The nations will be at war for four years and a great part
of the world will be destroyed. The Pope will go over the sea carrying the sign of Redemption on his
forehead. The great Monarch will come to restore peace and the Pope will
share in the victory."
Woerl
The monk of Woerl
: There will be a terrible war; on a side will be all the
people of Raising,on the other all those of the Setting one. Russia will
pour on us enormous masses of soldiers and Cossack cavalry. One will fight a long time without
decisive result, until finally one comes to the country from the Rhine.
There, one will fight so much during three days, that the water of the Rhine will be very reddened.
This time will come when there are general dissatisfaction and contempt
of the religion. When nobody wants to obey any
more, when one cannot distinguish the rich person and the poor any more,
when the people give up themselves entirely with sensual pleasures and
pleasure, when iniquity reaches its climax,
believe that this time is close.what follows this battle: Peace will be
returned to you, ™ Germany; France will recover its king; Pasteur
will bring back the herd to the sheep-fold.
Watrin
Watrin (1885)
peasant
: " Paris, with its monuments and churches,
illuminated by a splendorose sun. Later, suddenly, with a terrible
singeing, a fire torrent in the center of the city. For Santos
Evangelhos, I say that a monstrous fire storm will precipitate, as a
ray, and will overwhelm all the blocks of the center. "
Wudy
Sepp Wudy, the farmer's
farmhand (20th century)
: "If you could see it, you would be able to talk to your
cousin in Vienna from your own house, and if you needed him rapidly, he
could be with you within one hour."..." The
cause will be, that the people do not recognize the devil anymore,
because he is dressed beautifully and promises everything to them. I
also do not understand those that have no
modesty at all, and they become more and more worse and godless, so that
it must come to it, and, as already mentioned, it will be like
one hundred years ago."......"With the faith it goes
downhill, and everything is rotated. Nobody knows about it. The upper
ones already believe nothing at all, the lower ones will be made crazy. In the church they play dance
music, and the parson will sing to it. Then they also dance, but outside
there wil be a celestial sign, which announces
the beginning of the large mischief."...." This is not the last war (1st
world war) he said, because then soon there will be another, and only
then the last one comes. One becomes more
terrible than the other one. However what do I say? It does not concern
you but tell it to your children and grandchildren. They will have
to face with it and will experience the whole
story.""But outside there will be a celestial sign, which announces the
beginning of the large mischief. There will be a shine in the north, like never seen before, and then the fire will
be everywhere."...."The bohemian forrest will once be destroyed like
straw"..."You have the meal in front of you and are not allowed to eat it, because it brings you the
death, and you have the water and may not drink it, because it would
also mean your death. From the Osser (mountain
at the Bavarian-Bohemian boundary) there will still be a water source,
there you can drink. The air devours into the skin such as poison. Put
on all dresses you have and don't even let the
tip of your nose uncovered. Place yourself into a hole and wait till it
is all over, it will not last long, or look for a cave in the
mountains.
When you loose hair, it has gotten you. Take a
Kronwittbirl (???) into the mouth, this will help, and please drink no
milk for at least eight weeks."...."The end is near, and it has already begun. It will then be like one hundred
years ago. So much the people are thrown back and with this they will be
punished for their wantonness. It will be bad,
and the later born ones at first have to annew learn writing and
reading."
Washington
George Washington (National
Tribune in 1859:)
: I do not know whether it is owing to the anxiety of my
mind, or what, but this afternoon, as I was sitting at this table
engaged in preparing a dispatch, something seemed to disturb me. Looking up, I beheld standing opposite me a
singularly beautiful female. So astonished was I, for I had given strict
orders not to be disturbed, that it was some
moments before I found language to inquire into the cause of her
presence.
A second, a third, and even a fourth time did I
repeat my question, but received no answer from my mysterious visitor
except a slight raising of her eyes. I would have risen, but the riveted gaze of the being before me rendered
volition impossible. I assayed once more to address her, but my tongue
had become useless, even thought itself had
become paralyzed. A new influence, mysterious, potent, irresistible,
took possession of me. All I could do was to gaze steadily, vacantly at
my unknown visitor.
Gradually, the surrounding atmosphere seemed as
though becoming filled with sensations and luminous. Everything about me
seemed to rarefy, the mysterious visitor herself becoming more airy, and yet more distinct to my
sight than before. I now began to feel as one dying, or rather to
experience the sensations which I have sometimes imagined accompany dissolution. I did not think,
I did not reason, I did not move; all were alike impossible. I was only
conscious of gazing fixedly, vacantly at my
companion.
Presently I heard a voice saying, "Son of the
Republic, look and learn," while at the same time my visitor extended
her arm eastwardly. I now beheld a heavy white vapor at some distance rising fold upon fold. This
gradually dissipated, and I looked upon a strange scene. Before me lay
spread out in one vast plain all the countries of the world. I saw rolling and tossing between Europe and
America the billows of the Atlantic, and between Asia and America lay
the Pacific. "Son of the Republic," said the
same mysterious voice as before, "Look and learn."
At that moment I beheld a dark, shadowy being
floating in mid-air between Europe and America, dipping water out of the
ocean in the hollow of each hand. He sprinkled
some upon America with his right hand, while with his left hand he cast
some on Europe. Immediately a dark cloud raised from these countries and
joined in mid-ocean. For a while it remained
stationary, and then moved slowly westward, until it enveloped America
in its murky folds. Sharp flashes of lightning passed through it at intervals, and I heard the smothered groans
and cries of the American people.
A second time the angel dipped water from the
ocean, and sprinkled it out as before. The dark cloud was then drawn
back to the ocean, in whose heaving billows it sank from view. A third time I heard the mysterious voice
saying, "Son of the Republic, look and learn." I cast my eyes upon
America and beheld villages and towns and cities springing up one after another until the whole land
from the Atlantic to the Pacific was dotted with them. Again I heard the
mysterious voice say, "Son of the Republic,
the end of the century cometh, look and learn."
At this the dark, shadowy angel turned his face
southward, and from Africa I saw an ill-omened specter approach our
land. It flitted slowly over every town and city. 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," bearing the American flag, which he placed
between the divided nation, and said, "Remember ye are brethren."
Instantly the inhabitants, casting from them
their weapons, became friends once more and united around the National
Standard.
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 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 the cloud.
And I dimly saw these vast armies devastate the
whole country and burn the villages, towns, and cities that I beheld
were springing up. As my ears listened to the thundering of the cannon, clashing of swords, and the
shouts and cries of millions in mortal combat, I heard again the
mysterious voice saying, "Son of the Republic, look and learn." When the voice had ceased, the dark,
shadowy angel placed his trumpet once more to his mouth and blew a long
and fearful blast.
Instantly a light as of a thousand suns shone down
from above me, and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which
enveloped America. At the same moment the
angel, upon whose head still shone the word UNION, and who bore our
national flag in one hand and a sword in the other, descended from the
heavens, attended by legions of white spirits.
These immediately joined the inhabitants of America, who I perceived
were well nigh overcome, but who immediately taking courage
again, closed up their broken ranks and
renewed the battle.
Again, amid the fearful noise of the conflict, I
heard the mysterious voice saying, "Son of the Republic, look and
learn." As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel for the last time dipped water from the ocean and sprinkled it upon
America. Instantly the dark cloud rolled back, together with the armies
it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the
land victorious. Then once more I beheld the villages, towns, and cities
springing up where I had seen them before, while the bright angel,
planting the azure standard he had brought in
the midst of them, cried with a loud voice, "While the stars remain, and
the heavens send down dew upon the earth, so long shall the Union
last." And taking from his brow the crown on which
was blazoned the word "Union," he placed it upon the Standard, while the
people, kneeling down, said, "Amen."
The scene instantly began to fade and dissolve,
and I at last saw nothing but the rising, curling vapor I at first
beheld. This also disappearing, I found myself once more gazing upon the mysterious visitor, who, in the same voice
I had heard before, said, "Son of the Republic, what you have seen is
thus interpreted: Three great perils will come
upon the Republic. The most fearful is the third, passing which the
whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the
Republic learn to live for his God, his land,
and the Union." With these words the vision vanished, and I started from
my seat, and felt that I had seen a vision wherein had been shown me
the birth, progress, and destiny of the United
States. (National Tribune in 1859:)

: " in this - European - war all peoples of Europe will be
included, but only Germany and Norway will be filled. The war in Europe
will not last for a long time, because I saw
that something else initiated itself. I saw, like another army of Russia
came and against the south turned toward the mountains of Israel. In
this army there were many soldiers on horse,
additionally tanks and other motorized machines - a powerful
army.

: "World War III will be started by those peoples who first
received the light (divine wisdom or intelligence) in the other old
countries (India, China, Egypt, Palestine or Africa). The United States will be destroyed, land and
people, by atomic bombs and radioactivity. Only the Hopis and their
homeland will be preserved as an oasis to which refugees will flee. Bomb shelters are a fallacy."
...."Only materialistic people will try to make shelters but those who
are at peace in their hearts will be saved because they "are in the great shelter of life,There is no
shelter for evil. Those who take no part in the making of world division
by ideology are ready to resume life in another world, be they of the Black, White, Red or Yellow
race. They are all one, brothers." ©1997-99 Morgana's Observatory.

Paiute
: When I was in the other world with the Old Man, I saw all
the people who have died. But they were not sad. They were happy while
engaged in their old-time occupations and
dancing, gambling, and playing ball. It was a pleasant land, level,
without rocks or mountains, green all the time, and rich in abundance of
game and fish. Everyone was forever young.
After showing me all of heaven, God told me to go back to Earth and tell
His people you must be good and love one another, have no quarreling, and live in peace with the whites; that you
must work, and not lie or steal; and that you must put an end to the
practice of war. If you faithfully obey your instructions from on high, you will at last be reunited
with your friends in a renewed world where there would be no more death
or sickness or old age. First, though, the
Earth must die. Indians should not be afraid, however. For it will come
alive again, just like the sun died and came alive again. In the hour of
tribulation, a tremendous earthquake will
shake the ground. Indians must gather on high ground. A might flood
shall follow. The water and mud will sweep the white race and all
Indian skeptics away to their deaths. Then the
dead Indian ancestors will return, as will the vanished buffalo and
other game, and everything on Earth will once again be an Indian paradise. ©1997-99 Morgana's
