Ellen G. White on Judgment of the Cities

Contents

  • Judgment by fire on Nashville. EGW had a series of dreams regarding this judgment starting on July 2, 1904.
  • Earthquake prediction. EGW dreamed on April 16, 1906 that an earthquake would come. This dream was fulfilled two days later in the San Francisco Earthquake of 1906.

Judgment by fire on Nashville

EGW prophesied that the judgment of the cities would start with Nashville, Tennessee. The following video suggests the first of judgments on the cities is to begin at Nashville, specifically on The Parthenon based on an EGW dream.

  • PLEA BY FIRE: A Warning for Nashville and the Cities of Earth. Duration 1:16:48. Balls of fire are soon to fall upon the cities of Earth. In 2015 a century old warning was uncovered which warns of a terrible judgment to fall upon all the cities of Earth, beginning with the name of the first city to be destroyed. When men will not heed the warnings of His word or His messengers, He will plead with them by fire, "for by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh." (Isaiah 66:16)

EGW quotes on the Judgment by fire on Nashville

  • Ms 102, July 2, 1904. Last night a scene was presented before me. I may never feel free to reveal all of it, but I will reveal a little. It seemed that an immense ball of fire came down upon the world and crushed large houses. From place to place rose the cry, “The Lord has come! The Lord has come!” Many were unprepared to meet Him, but a few were saying, “Praise the Lord!” “Why are you praising the Lord?” enquired those upon whom was coming sudden destruction. “Because we now see what we have been looking for.” “If you believed that these things were coming, why did you not tell us?” was the terrible response. “We did not know about these things. Why did you leave us in ignorance? Again and again you have seen us; why did you not become acquainted with us and tell us of the judgment to come, and that we must serve God, lest we perish? Now we are lost!” {19LtMs, Ms 102, 1904, par. 31-35}
  • Lt 217, July 3, 1904. The night before last a very impressive scene passed before me. I saw an immense ball of fire fall into the midst of some beautiful mansions, causing their instant destruction. I heard some say, “We knew that the judgments of God were coming upon the earth, but we did not know they would come so soon.” Others said, “You knew! Why then did you not tell us? We did not know.” On every side I heard such words spoken. {19LtMs, Lt 217, 1904, par. 12}
  • Ms 152, July 5, 1904. There was a scene presented to me. It was the night before the Sabbath. That is when that scene was presented. I looked out of the window, and there was an immense ball of fire that had come from heaven, and it fell where they were casting buildings with pillars, especially the pillars were presented to me. And it seemed as if the ball came right to the building and crushed it, and they saw that it was branching out, branching out, enlarging, and they began to cry and mourn and mourn, and wring their hands; and I thought some of our people stood by there, saying, “Well, it is just what we have been expecting; it is just what we have been talking about; it is just what we have been talking about.” “You knew it?” said the people. “You knew it, and never told us about it?” I thought there was such an agony in their face, such an agony in their appearance. {19LtMs, Ms 152, 1904, par. 21}
  • Ms 154, August 14, 1904. While I was in Nashville, a scene was opened before me. A great ball of fire seemed to fall from heaven, and from it went forth flashes of light. When these flashes of light would strike a building, the building would burn like tinder. And then I heard someone say, “I knew that this was coming. These are the judgments of God that I knew were coming.” “You knew!” said another. “You were my neighbor. Why did you not tell me that these things were coming? Why did you not warn others?” {19LtMs, Ms 154, 1904, par. 36}
  • Ms 158, September 10, 1904. The Lord is soon coming in the clouds of heaven with power and with great glory. His terrible judgments are soon to fall upon our world. Are we doing all we can to warn earth’s inhabitants of these things? While I was in the South a few months ago, I had a very impressive dream. I seemed to see a great ball of fire come from heaven and strike the earth. Great houses were in flames, and many were looking on in great distress. Some one said, “I knew that this was coming. I knew that God’s judgments were soon to fall.” “You knew that these things were coming?” said another. “Why did you not tell us? Why did you not warn us, and show us the prophecies, that we might also know?” {19LtMs, Ms 158, 1904, par. 30}
  • Ms 188 January 21, 1905. When I was at Nashville, I had been speaking to the people, and in the night season, there was an immense ball of fire that came right from heaven and settled in Nashville. There were flames going out like arrows from that ball; houses were being consumed; houses were tottering and falling. Some of our people were standing there. “It is just as we expected,” they said, “we expected this.” Others were wringing their hands in agony and crying unto God for mercy. “You knew it,” said they, “you knew that this was coming, and never said a word to warn us!” They seemed as though they would almost tear them to pieces, to think they had never told them or given them any warning at all.

Judgment on all the cities

  • 17LtMs, Ms 233, 1902, par. 3: The wrath of God will come upon all cities, upon dwellings, upon large buildings, so suddenly that they who have the slightest intimation have no safety in dallying at all. They are to flee at once.
  • 17LtMs, Ms 233, par. 4: We are living amid the perils of the last days. The wrath of God is preparing to come upon all the cities—not all at once but one after another. And if the terrible punishment in one city does not cause the inhabitants of other cities to be afraid and seek repentance, their time will come. When the Lord ariseth to shake terribly the earth, He will not cease until His work in punishment is done. The destruction will begin in certain places, and the destruction of life will be sudden and but few will escape. There is not to be given an encouraging thought that the gospel of Jesus Christ will be accepted by the large majority of men prior to His coming again the second time with power and great glory. I am instructed by revelation to say that most solemn and overwhelming judgments are determined upon all people who have the light before them in the Word of God, [but who do not follow it].
