Ellen G White and nuclear blast
Did one of the founders of the Seventh-day Adventist movement accurately predict Nashville getting nuked next month?

If you live in Nashville, Tennessee, you might want to move.

At least, if you believe the biblical prophecies of Ellen G. White, an early Seventh-day Adventist who claimed to have received over 2,000 visions from God.

One of those prophecies, according to the group “The Ministry of Future for America”, is that Nashville will be nuked on July 18th of this year. The mysterious group even ran an ad in The Tennessean on Sunday, with the intent of warning Nashville residents that they’ve got less than a month to live.

It's the End of the World

The full-page ad ran in The Tennessean on Sunday. “Dear Citizens of Nashville,” it begins. “We are under conviction to not only tell you but to provide evidence that on July 18, 2020, Islam is going to detonate a nuclear device in Tennessee.” The conspiracy-laden letter portends a Third World War as seen by biblical prophecy, a simultaneous political and religious power struggle between the United States under President Trump (America’s “final president”), Russia and President Putin, Protestants, Catholics, Muslims, and Seventh-day Adventists.

And it all apparently kicks off in July with a nuke in Nashville.

As many took offense to the implication that 'Islam' would nuke an American city, the newspaper is apologizing and scrambling to figure out how this got published in the first place.

The editor of The Tennessean said that a “breakdown in the normal processes” led to the ad’s publication. “The ad is horrific and is utterly indefensible in all circumstances,” he continued. “It is wrong, period, and should have never been published. It has hurt members of our community and our own employees and that saddens me beyond belief.”

The ad received much negative attention on social media, with many pledging to cancel their subscriptions to the daily paper. The paper's promised to donate the advertising money used to pay for the ad towards the American Muslim Advisory Council.

Who is Ellen G. White?

Ellen G. White, whose prophecies were the basis for the ad, is one of the most revered women in Seventh-day Adventism, an important foundational figure who is probably one of the most influential people in the church’s history. She was born in Maine in 1827, and in her day was a highly sought after preacher who frequently received visions from God in public settings. The Smithsonian ranked her as one of the 100 most influential Americans of all time. Many Adventists believe she is a modern-day prophet, but there is debate in the church of just how much credence to give to her writings and prophecies.

As proof of her clairvoyance, some point to a 1901 prophecy from White that they say predicted the September 11th attacks in New York City. That prediction says:

On one occasion, when in New York City, I was in the night season called upon to behold buildings rising story after story toward heaven. These buildings were warranted to be fireproof, and they were erected to glorify the owners and builders. Higher and still higher these buildings rose, and in them the most costly material was used. . . .

The scene that next passed before me was an alarm of fire. Men looked at the lofty and supposedly fire-proof buildings and said: "They are perfectly safe." But these buildings were consumed as if made of pitch. The fire engines could do nothing to stay the destruction. The firemen were unable to operate the engines.—Testimonies for the Church, vol. 9, pp. 12, 13.

Bracing for Impact

Prophecies predicting death, destruction, or even the end of the world aren’t new. In fact, since Jesus’ life, there have been hundreds of predicted dates for the apocalypse, including as early as the year 66, when Simon bar Giora predicted that the Jewish uprising against Rome would bring about the Messiah. And who could forget 2012, a year so frequently speculated to host the end-of-days that Hollywood made a film about it.

For now, we think it’s pretty safe to stay in Nashville; After all, the weather's lovely there this time of year. But it's a rather interesting thought; Why are so many attracted to the idea of the world ending?

Is it the element of knowing something others don't? Is it the desire to see the righteous rewarded and the wicked punished? Is it just plain gullibility?

      Keep the faith and make peace with whoever we have to trust God is able however still take heed we just have to trust God on this situation I said trust God twice God is working while we sleep and woke.

        I refuse to keep the pretentious faith of mythical Fairies, Gnomes, Santa Clause, Thor, Vishnu, Krishna, and even your unproven mythical deity, whichever you have convinced yourself it is, all of which have no idea how to show up when needed, whether we are asleep or awake. The simple reason they don't show up, even in children's hospitals of those dying of cancer, or dying in third world countries of hunger and thirst, is because they obviously either don't care, or don't exist.

        If I was a deity I would not only care, I would actually show up, and do my best to heal them. Methinks my morals are better than your mythical god.

        If for some unknown incredible reason your mythical god happened to be real, the first thing I would do when I leave this life is punch him on the nose for doing absolutely nothing, and especially for killing those first born children because of his temper tantrum with Pharoah. Someone needs to stick up for those children don't you think, or does your faith prevent you from doing that?

    No, there will be no nuke in Tennessee, so don't worry about it. If someone were going to bomb us why bother with that location, it's ridiculous. They would hit at the heart of our economic and country's well-being. NYC! That newspaper should be out of business for allowing this kind of fear mongering and blatant garbage being published. There will be another war, but it won't start there. I know the Russians want to destroy the land of country music, joke, LOL! If we don't hear songs about our trucks being repossessed, our dog dying, our wife cheating and no cigarettes we would be devastated, hahahaha. First, when it starts there will be more than one bomb, NYC will be hit , among others. I would leave the city anyway at this juncture since there will be more viruses, economic havoc and violence and when anything does hit it will be impossible to get out. The freeways in major cities will be choked, all cars and vans with computers will be knocked out by the radiation bursts. So you will be walking since not many in cities are horse owners. Most of the rich people have already prepared for this, buying underground condo's, farms in the country, where they have hired security and workers to guard and work the property. In the country you will at least have a chance. I would get some EMT and nursing training, figure out how to grow your own vegetables , etc. I don't foresee this happening for 5 to ten years yet, but I could be wrong. Trump is so longing to take his rage out on someone. Though there will be a devastating incident that occurs before long that will shock the world and make people reevaluate how they have been living and what really is important. Keep the faith, walk in trust, but God helps those who help themselves. Good Luck.

    GOD forbid anything like that would happen. How ever the wackos are definitely out there. None of the current turmoil has been caused by our great president, but by those democrats and republicans, the deep state, who hates America and has teamed up with Antifa and the other haters trying to destroy America. At any other time in America the NSA, CIA, FBI and other 3 letter alphabets agencies who have protected the USA have in the past 4 years sold out to terrorist. Not all of those agencies but the leaders have placed us all in danger. Unless all our prayers have failed to reach heaven; We of the faith, don’t see this happening. GOD Bless and Keep you, Ever and Always! Amen

      Have you seen a doctor lately Johnny Mac, if you haven't then I strongly suggest that you do. I may be wrong but you seem to be suffering from persecutory delusions which is: An irrational and obsessive feeling or fear that one is the object of collective hostility or ill-treatment on the part of others.

      As for this "End of the world thing" I'm not going to sweat it or lose any sleep over it. They have been predicting the End of the world centuries before I was born, and they will continue long after I am dead. I like most people have more importance issues in our life to deal with.

    I am not sure how to say this as I have not gone public with any of my visions that I suddenly began 1.5 years ago, but I will try here. We will have a volley with Russia but my dates are more towards October and November. At first this was to impact the entire West coast. Now I see three states and four bombs. Considering the latest press and what Putin is doing I see a slow simmer on his part. Now the three States I’m being told are NY, WV, NV. the fourth state may well be Tenn..... I am being told also and bigger yet which may precipitate this event is a horrific action which China will be responsible. ( I was told 6/22)The next G4 meeting is coming up in Dublin Ireland 9/4 in which the topic is world security. China will take their revenge on many by killing or injuring more than 90. This could create world chaos if we lose any or several of our world leaders who will be in attendance at this meeting. The past several months I have known many events before they have occurred but who could I tell? After all I’m sure I’d be looked at as cra cra. I’m new to this world as an empath or the world of discernment. I do this as a Christian and not for any financial reward. I understand if no one believes a word I say as I wonder myself some days and why me , I’m interested to know if anyone else is seeing these events.

          Paul McCartney explained that the words “Let it be” came from a dream of his late mother.

          I think I was getting, like, a little bit over the top with [the party fashion] – getting pretty tired and pretty wasted. And I went to bed one night and had a kind of restless night. But I had a dream where my mother, who had been dead at that point for about 10 years, came to me in the dream and it was as if she could see that I was troubled. And she sort of said to me, she said, ‘Let it be.’ And I remember quite clearly her saying, ‘Let it be,’ and ‘It’s going to be OK. Don’t worry.’ You know, ‘Let it be.’ I woke up and I remembered the dream, and I thought, ‘Well, that’s a great idea.’ And I then sat down and wrote the song using the feeling from that dream and of my mum coming to me in the dream.

    So much for Ms. White's psychic abilities. What does Nostredamus think?

    1. T Kosse`'s Avatar T Kosse`

      Well you might dig him up and ask him, but beware Nostredamus put a curse on his tomb.

      The man who opens the tomb when it is found And who does not close it immediately, Evil will come to him That no one will be able to prove.

      In 1791, during the French Revolution, drunken soldiers broke into the church and, using picks and shovels, looted the tomb of Nostradamus. The sound of the commotion alerted the mayor of Salon, who hurried to the church to investigate. He arrived to witness the ghastly scene of soldiers and townspeople tossing the prophet's bones into the air, dancing in macabre drunkenness. One guardsman stood in the center of the group, drinking wine from the skull of Nostradamus. (Local people believed that drinking blood from the skull of the great prophet would bestow psychic abilities.) Nostradamus had warned that anyone who dared disturb his rest would suffer a quick and violent death.

      The mayor acted quickly and explained to the soldiers that Nostradamus, in having predicted the French Revolution in supportive tones, should be considered a national hero. Those present collected the bones from the floor and helped to reinter the remains.

      According to the legend, these revolutionary soldiers were ambushed by royalists while returning to their base in Marseilles. The soldier who had brazenly drunk from Nostradamus' skull was killed, quickly and violently, by a sniper's bullet.

          Get your head out of the bible.You might be surprised to learn, that there a whole wide world out there that does not revolves around what written in the bible. It wouldn't hurt you to expand your mind, to broaden your horizon, instead of having a narrow mind of the people around and your out look on life. As for Nostradamus's prophecies I only said that he wrote and put a curse on his tomb I didn't said I believed it nor do I believe everything that written in the bible. Whether some one believe in what written in the bible or Nostradamus's prophecies, or witchcraft or even alien from outer space does not make them a fake, if that what they truly believe in.

    Where did you find that date? I read the prophecy and it was not there. She indeed talks about the destruction, but she did not mention this date.

    Besides, the prophecies containing specific dates ended with the 2300 days of Daniel 8: 14, so I think that what you wrote sounds very strange. Can you, please, enlighten me?
