Local man: Five cities to be destroyed Friday
Farragut, Knox County (WVLT) - A Farragut man says he's only the messenger, claiming his personal relationship with god has revealed to him, five cities in the United States that will face economic collapse Friday, November 11, 2005.
As WVLT Volunteer TV's Stephen McLamb learns, eleven is a well known number in history and this man feels eleven, eleven is the beginning of the end.
"But I want people to know that I'm perfectly sane, that I'm at peace with what's going to happen," John Gilmore says he's just a messenger and living by it. He says people in New York, Washington DC, Atlanta, Las Vegas, and San Francisco face some form of serious destruction on Friday.
"Something is going to happen to the effect that these cities are going to be devastated to the point that our economy is going to collapse," Gilmore says.
One local pastor says he's not buying Gilmore's claims.
"Remember the year 2000 where everything was going to be destroyed through Y2K and it never happened," says Pastor John Stuart, from Erin Presbyterian Church.
But Gilmore is and he's preparing for long term problems by storing extra food, water, and by getting his money out of the stock market.
Gilmore feels Friday is God's judgment for our desires for wealth, greed, and killing the unborn.
"Every time throughout the bible, he corrects that with judgment. And he does that to drive us away from the evil one and back to him and that's what I believe we are going to see tomorrow," Gilmore explains.
But Pastor Stuart says false claims have been made for centuries all because of anxiety.
"Probably on Saturday morning we are going to wake up and we'll wonder. What on earth were we scared about?" Pastor Stuart says.
"If it we're me, I would not be in the cities that I mentioned and I've notified everybody I know in those cities that they need to leave. They'll have to make that ultimate decision themselves, but my decision would be to leave, says Gilmore.
Gilmore was questioned about false prophets and whether he could be one of them.
He responded, "no, because I am right."
