    Unprecedented Warfare

    “The tempest is coming, and we must get ready for its fury by having repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord will arise to shake terribly the earth. We shall see troubles on all sides. Thousands of ships will be hurled into the depths of the sea. Navies will go down, and human lives will be sacrificed by millions. Fires will break out unexpectedly, and no human effort will be able to quench them. The palaces of earth will be swept away in the fury of the flames. Disasters by rail will become more and more frequent; confusion, collision, and death without a moment’s warning will occur on the great lines of travel. The end is near, probation is closing. Oh, let us seek God while He may he found, call upon Him while He is near!”—Messages to Young People, 89, 90 (1890).EWP 13.5

    “Oh, that God’s people had a sense of the impending destruction of thousands of cities, now almost wholly given to idolatry.”—Evangelism, 29 (1903).EWP 14.1
