So I read "Saved by the Light" last night, by Dannion Brinkley
Holy crap, that guy went through agony....

I love Near Death Experiences, but had never read this one so when I found the book on Scribd, I thought maybe I should give it a shot.

His whole experience is quite interesting, but especially his prophecies -- they start on or around page 24....

[link to www.scribd.com]

I will highlight a few below... (as we know, 'dates' in visions etc are seldom completely accurate, so I consider the accounting of the vision itself more important than the 'date' that Dannion was given)...

I could see America falling into enormous debt. This came to me as scenes of money going out of aroom much faster than it was coming in. Through some kind of telepathy I was aware that this moneyrepresented the increase in the national debt and that it spelled danger down the road. I also sawpeople waiting in long lines for the basics of life like clothing and food.

pg 24

This spiritual depravity resulted in a number of shocking visions: people rioting and looting becausethey wanted more material goods than they had, kids shooting other kids with high-powered rifles,criminals stealing cars, young men firing on other young men from the windows of cars. Scenes likethese played out in front of me like scenes from a gangster movie.Most of the criminals were children or adolescents that no one cared about.

As I watched image afterimage, it became painfully clear to me that these kids had no family units, and as a result, they wereacting like wolves.

I was confused because I couldn't figure out how American children could be left to roam and murder.Didn't they have parental guidance? I wondered. How could such a thing happen in our country?

I could see Israel becoming isolated from the rest of the world. As things worsened, there were imagesof Israel preparing for war against other countries, including Russia and a Chinese-and-Arabconsortium. Jerusalem was somehow at the eye of this conflict, but I am not sure exactly how. Fromnewspaper headlines that appeared in the vision, I could see that some incident in that holy city hadserved to trigger this war.

The fifth box showed oil being used as a weapon to control the international economy. I saw imagesof Mecca and then of the Saudi people. While these images streamed before me, a telepathic voicesaid that oil production was being cut off to destroy America's economy and to milk money from theworld economy. The price of oil was going up and up, said the voice, and Saudi Arabia was makingan alliance with Syria and China. I could see Arab and Oriental people shaking hands and makingdeals. As these images came to me, I could sense money being given by the Saudis to Asian countrieslike North Korea, all in the hopes of destabilizing the economy of the Asian region.

I wondered where this alliance began, and I was able to see a close-up of Syrians and Chinese signingpapers and shaking hands in a building that I knew was in Syria. The date that came to me was 1992.

A secondnuclear accident appeared in the box, this in a northern sea so badly polluted that no ships wouldtravel there. The water was a pale red and was covered with dead or dying fish. Around the waterwere peaks and valleys that made me think I was seeing a fjord like those in Norway. I couldn't tellwhere this was, but I knew that the world was frightened at what had happened, because radiationfrom this accident could spread everywhere and affect all of humankind. The date on the picture was 1995.

The box showed me the fear in people's hearts that resulted from these nuclear accidents. As theimages of this fear unfolded, I somehow understood that environmentalism would emerge as theworld's new religion. People would consider a clean environment a key to salvation more than theyever had before. Political parties would spring up around the issue of a cleaner planet, and politicalfortunes would be made or broken based upon feelings about the environment.

The economy played a strong role in these visions. I saw people carrying bags of money into storesand coming out with small bags of goods. People with military uniforms wandered the streets inSoviet cities begging for food, some obviously starving to death. People ate rotted potatoes andapples, and crowds rioted to get at trucks filled with food.

(snip)

I felt no joy as I watched the Soviet Union collapse. Although Soviet-style communism was dyingright before my eyes, the Being of Light was saying that this was a cautious moment instead of aglorious one. "Watch the Soviet Union," he said. "How the Russian people go, so goes the world.What happens to Russia is the basis for everything that will happen to the economy of the free world."

Boxes ten and eleven came in rapid succession. They revealed scenes of the economic collapse of theworld. In general terms, these visions showed a world in horrible turmoil by the turn of the century,one that resulted in a new world order that was truly one of feudalism and strife.

In one of the visions, people lined up to take money out of banks. In another the banks were beingclosed by the government. The voice that accompanied the visions told me that this would take placein the nineties and would be the beginning of an economic strife that would lead to the bankruptcy of America by the year 2000.

The box showed images of dollar signs flying by as people pumped gas and looked distressed. I knewthis meant that oil prices were accelerating out of control.

I saw thirteen new nations entering the world market in the late nineties. These were nations withmanufacturing capabilities that put them on a competitive footing with the United States. One by oneour European markets began to give their business to these countries, which slowed our economyeven more. All of this led to a greatly weakened economy.

But the end of America as a world power came as visions of two horrendous earthquakes in whichbuildings were swaying and toppling over like a child's wooden blocks. I knew that these quakeshappened sometime before the end of the century, but I couldn't tell where they took place. I doremember seeing a large body of water that was probably a river.

The cost of rebuilding these destroyed cities would be the final straw for our government, now sofinancially broken that it would hardly be able to keep itself alive. The voice in the vision told me thatit would be this way while the images from the box showed Americans starving and lined up for food.

Box eleven began with Iran and Iraq in possession of nuclear and chemical weapons. Included in thisarsenal was a submarine loaded with nuclear missiles. The year, said a voice in the vision, was 1993.

I saw this submarine powering through the waters of the Middle East, piloted by people I knew to beIranians. I could tell that their purpose was to stop the shipping of oil from the Middle East. Theywere so praiseful of God in their speech that I had the sense that this was some kind of religious mission.

Chemical warfare played a role in a horrible vision of terrorism that takes place in France before2000. It begins when the French publish a book that infuriates the Arab world. I don't know the title of this book, but the result of its publication is a chemical attack by Arabs on a city in France. Achemical is put into the water supply, and thousands drink it and die before it can be eliminated.

In this box I watched as a biological engineer from the Middle East found a way to alter DNA andcreate a biological virus that would be used in the manufacture of computer chips. This discoveryallowed for huge strides in science and technology. Japan, China, and other countries of the PacificRim experienced boom times as a result of this discovery and became powers of incrediblemagnitude. Computer chips produced from this process found their way into virtually every form of technology, from cars and airplanes to vacuum cleaners and blenders.

Before the turn of the century, this man was among the richest in the world, so rich that he had astranglehold on the world economy. Still the world welcomed him, since the computer chips he had designed somehow put the world on an even keel.Gradually he succumbed to his own power.

(snip)

Everyone in the world was mandated by law to have one of hiscomputer chips inserted underneath his or her skin. This chip contained all of an individual's personalinformation. If a government agency wanted to know something, all it had to do was scan your chipwith a special device. By doing so, it could discover everything about you, from where you workedand lived to your medical records and even what kind of illnesses you might get in the future.

(snip)

A person's lifetime could be limited byprogramming this chip to dissolve and kill him with the viral substance it was made from. Lifetimeswere controlled like this to avoid the cost that growing old places on the government. It was also usedas a means of eliminating people with chronic illnesses that put a drain on the medical system.

People who refused to have chips implanted in their bodies roamed as outcasts. They could not beemployed and were denied government services.

Scenes from World War III came to life before me. I was in a hundred places at once, from deserts toforests, and saw a world filled with fighting and chaos. Somehow it was clear that this final war, anArmaggedon if you will, was caused by fear. In one of the most puzzling visions of all, I saw an armyof women in black robes and veils marching through a European city.

"The fear these people are feeling is an unnecessary one," said the Being of Light. "But it is a fear sogreat that humans will give up all freedoms in the name of safety."

I also saw scenes that were not of war, including many visions of natural disasters. In parts of theworld that had once been fertile with wheat and corn, I saw parched desert and furrowed fields thatfarmers had given up on. In other parts of the world, torrential rainstorms had gouged out the earth,eating away top-soil and creating rivers of thick, dark mud.

People were starving in this vision. They were begging for food on the streets, holding out bowls andcups and even their hands in hopes that someone or something would offer them a scrap to eat. Insome of the pictures, people had given up or were too weak to beg and were curled on the groundwaiting for the gift of death.

I saw civil wars breaking out in Central and South America and the rise of socialist governments in allof these countries before the year 2000. As these wars intensified, millions of refugees streamedacross the U.S. border, looking for a new life in North America. Nothing we did could stop theseimmigrants. They were driven by fear of death and loss of confidence in God.

I saw millions of people streaming north out of El Salvador and Nicaragua, and more millionscrossing the Rio Grande into Texas. There were so many of them that we had to line the border withtroops and force them back across the river.

There were more in the book than these... especially others that related to Chernobyl and Desert Storm, and the Fall of the Soviet Union, but since those are quite a ways in the past I didn't include them.

The ones I did include I chose because they seem relevant to what is happening today or that they have yet to occur.

he says there were 117 prophecies given to him en toto, and by the time he wrote his book, over 90+ had occurred.

For the most accurate,scientifictly reported and compiled, read either of the two books by Dr. Sabom. He is a cardiologist who was fascinated by the NDE's reported by patients and looks at them from a neutral scientific outlook. He handles all those questions from those fellow professionals who want to discredit them. A fascinating read.hf

Sorry, but everything written here is more or less based on the Biblical prophecies with our present society as the basis to his own interpretations of how it might actually pan out.

But, interesting, nonetheless.

Quite convenient since none of the occurs occurred like predicted, and don;t pull a nostradamus on me trying to make it fit no matter what. By the way, a student of world economics and politics could have made all of these "predictions" by letting his or her imagination run wild, so the only thing predicted here that makes any sense with reality is the downfall of the US, do it is a lose lose as far as I am concerned.
