He claims to have had visions, dreams, impressions, and warnings from" spirit guides ” of remarkable changes and disasters to take place soon. He predicts another civil war for the United States, Not only this country, but every nation and people'on earth will feel the horrors of war, famine and pestilence, earth - quakes, floods, and terrible convulsions of nature.
