The other day as I was researching prophetic material concerning the future.  

A friend of mine sent me a link to a prophecy that remarkably identifies what lies ahead.

A christian evangelist by the name of Dr Emanuel Minos met a woman from the district of Valdres in Norway who shared with him a prophetic vision of the “last days” as she called it, in 1968.

She was a very alert, reliable, 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.

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).

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.

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.

2. There will be a moral disintegration that old Norway has never experienced the likes of. People will live together like married without being married.

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).

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).

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 laws that forbids this kind of thing. E. Minos.)

There the old woman said: “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.”

3. 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 Saviour and Lord, is safe” she said.

The gift of prophecy historically has been a catalyst to cause division in the church due in part to its excesses.

However I want to suggest that it is too important a gift to sideline, especially as we see the day approaching of the second coming of Christ.
