Ellen Gould White
What does Ellen White write about...
Ellen Gould White über: "Prophecies about the Sea and Ships in the End Times"
Answer
The writings clearly describe that in the end times one can expect severe catastrophes at sea and the sinking of ships. Ellen White speaks of storms and shipwrecks for those who go out onto the sea, while LeRoy Froom even mentions thousands of ships and whole fleets that will be cast into the depths of the ocean. These events are understood as part of divine judgments and warnings that are meant to call people to repentance.
The catastrophes on water and on land are seen as signs of the times that announce the imminent coming of Christ and show that the Spirit of God is gradually withdrawing from the earth.

Storms and Shipwrecks at Sea
\n\n\n»Storms and shipwrecks await those who travel over the deep. Misfortune and catastrophes threaten all who travel over the land. Hurricanes, earthquakes, sword and hunger follow in rapid succession.«
Catastrophes at Sea as a Warning
\n\n\n»Catastrophes at sea and on land follow one another in rapid succession. How often we hear of earthquakes and tornadoes, of destruction by fire and floods, with great loss of life and property!«
End-Time Signs at Sea
\n\n\n»We live in the time of the end. The rapidly fulfilling signs of the times proclaim that the coming of Christ is near. The catastrophes on water and on land, the insecure state of society, the war alarms are threatening. They herald approaching events of the greatest magnitude.«
