I have thought about this vision many times. Now, more than three decades later, I am convinced we are nearer the end of time than ever before. We read in Second Peter 3:8 that " .. .one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. "Therefore, these years since the vision would be a very small fraction of time in God's sight.

As I stated earlier, I am convinced that a partial fulfillment of the burned-out cities I saw in the vision were the American cities that suffered so much looting and burn-ing during the civil disobedience in the 1960s.

Judgment came, and judgment is yet to come. The only thing that can save America from the judgment of God is genuine repentance — a turning to God.

Modern Church To Do Exploits

In the vision, Jesus said that all the gifts of the Spirit would be in operation in the Church in these last days. He said that the modern Church would do greater things than the Acts of the Apostles records. I have seen this fulfilled in the years since the vision. In my own ministry I have seen healings as miraculous as any we read about in the Bible.

The third chapter of Acts tells of the man lame from birth who sat daily at the gate of the Temple begging alms of those who entered. Peter said, "Silver and gold have I none; bu t such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk " (Acts 3:6). The man was instantly healed. He leaped, walked, and praised God for his deliverance. We see in our ministry today cripples who are healed in the Name of Jesus.

On the Day of Pentecost 120 people were baptized in the Holy Spirit. This was the largest number filled with the Holy Spirit at one time as recorded in the Bible. But in my own meetings I have seen several hundred filled in one service; and in other meetings in which I have par-ticipated, as many as 500 have been baptized in the Holy Spirit, speaking with other tongues, within 15 minutes' time.

The Bible tells of instances in which as many as 2,000, 3,000, or 5,000 turned to Christ in one day. In these last days, however, we have reports of meetings in which tens of thousands of people are saved in one meeting.

For example, my longtime friend Dr. T. L. Osborn once preached in Calabar, Nigeria, to a crowd that government officials estimated was 500,000 persons. And Dr. Billy Graham preached at the largest Christian gathering in history in June 1973 in Seoul, South Korea. It is estimated that 1,100,000 attended that one service. A total of 3,210,000 attended the five-day Graham crusade and 72,365 decisions were recorded for the entire crusade.

So, in these last days as we await His coming, we are seeing as many great miracles around the world as we find recorded in the
