PHOENIX - A well-known New York pastor claims he has been compelled by the Holy Spirit to send out an urgent message about an imminent and "earth shattering calamity."

David Wilkerson told readers of his blog on Saturday that the calamity would be centered in New England, and then spread across the country, and around the world, part of what he sees as judgment from God, NewsChannel5 sister station KNXV-TV reported.

"An earth-shattering calamity is about to happen," he wrote. "It is going to be so frightening, we are all going to tremble -- even the godliest among us." . . .

Yep and he also prophesied this economic meltdown 10 years ago. This is the guy who wrote “The Cross and the Switchblade”, great story and testimony about the conversion of gang members.

> ...God told him to make sandwiches and 2 days later 9/11 happened and he had some 2000 sandwiches ready

"Ready"... for what?

That's a lot of freakin' sandwiches. Anybody eat 'em?

Yeah, I saw this this past weekend. Rev. Wilkerson is not given to TV evangelism. He is trustworthy.

Dec. 2012 is coming. I have had a morbid fascination with that date since several ancient societies predict something big to happen then

Using what calendar?

So did I, just by reading the "Wall Street Journal" and observing that a lot of people were crooks and a lot of other people were dopes. Making reasonable predictions based on available economic data is not "prophecy," no matter how genuinely inspirational a person's conversion and ministry is.

You know if you talk to people in general...to the person they feel that there is a ill wind coming.

Can’t put my finger on it though. I had the same feeling before 911 happened.

You can make fun of Pastor Wilkerson(not you, other people on this thread), but even I and quite a few other people feel something terrible is on its way.

Don’t worry about the mayo. The old warning about potato salad at a picnic - turns out it was the potatoes causing the problem, not the mayo.

>>> “It is going to be so frightening, we are all going to tremble — even the godliest among us.” . .

The preacher is correct. I saw the details on it the comimg tragedy this morning.

UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIF. March 12, 2009 NBC will serve up a sizzling menu of new and returning summer series — accented by all-new original scripted programming with the series premieres of “The Philanthropist,” “Merlin” and “The Listener” and paced by the new alternative series “I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here!” and “Great American Road Trip” plus the return of summer’s top-rated “America’s Got Talent.”

“I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here!” is the ultimate Swiss Family Robinson as ten celebrities are dropped into the heart of the jungle to face fun and comedic challenges designed to test their survival skills. America is the puppetmaster, controlling their favorite celebrities by putting them into challenges and tasks to win food, supplies and luxury items. In each episode, friendships will be tested, hilarity will ensue and viewers will decide which celebrities stay or go. The last remaining star will be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle, winning a substantial cash prize for their favorite charity.

“Great American Road Trip” from BBC Worldwide, is a hilarious and relatable new series where seven families from divergent backgrounds are selected take the journey of a lifetime. Over eight episodes, the families will travel through cities large and small all while competing in a medley of humorous challenges that will ultimately lead one family to victory. These comical, clever challenges are set against iconic American backdrops like the majestic Grand Canyon and the regal Washington Monument. Along the way, our families and our viewers will also discover quirky American landmarks ranging from the World’s Largest Chair to a sneaker the size of a car. Although family fun is the centerpiece of the show, the competition is real and one family will be eliminated each week based on their performance in the challenges. Ultimately, only one family will return home with a dream prize that perfectly compliments their extraordinary and memorable summer vacation.

Hilarity will ensue. Have mercy on us.

At the risk of being called a nut I will point out that this summer NASA is planning to fire two missiles into the Moon. It is called the LCROSS mission. Personally I do not view NASA as having a great track record of success nor do I feel comfortable with this plan. Back during one of the Apollo missions they had hit the moon in a similar fashion and it was reported that the Moon wobbled and rang like a gong for over three hours. Now they want to double down and hit twice in one of the poles of the Moon.

If this Pastor is having a real premonition then could it be that this is what he is sensing?
