 Many have reported visions telling of the doom awaiting the Old Order and its institutions, but we have had none sent us that contain as definite a promise of what will follow the passing of the Old Order as the one described in the letter below: Many have reported visions telling of the doom awaiting the Old Order and its institutions, but we have had none sent us that contain as definite a promise of what will follow the passing of the Old Order as the one described in the letter below:
