Destruction of Los Angeles

The Biltmore Hotel, Downtown Los Angeles, where William Branham prophecied that Los Angeles would roll into the sea. William Branham had just finished preaching a series of meetings in Los Angeles in April 1965, when he was asked by the Full Gospel Business Men who organized the meetings to preach just one more service for them. So, on April 29, William Branham stood behind the podium at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, and preached a sermon called "Choosing of a Bride". Two notable things occurred during this service: There was a steady stream of people leaving the building during the service who could not handle the severity of the preaching. These included the same people who had attended (and engaged in) William Branham's sermons in LA since April the 24th. During this sermon, William Branham prophecied that the city of Los Angeles would one day slide into the ocean, and a new coastline would form at the Salton Sea. A Panorama of the Salton Sea The Prophecy Thou city, who claims to be the city of the Angels, who's exalted yourself into heaven and sent all the dirty filthy things of fashions and things, till even the foreign countries come here to pick up our filth and send it away, with your fine churches and steeples, and so forth the way you do; remember, one day you'll be laying in the bottom of this sea. You're great honeycomb under you right now. The wrath of God is belching right beneath you. How much longer He'll hold this sandbar hanging over that, when that ocean out yonder a mile deep will slide in there plumb back to the Salton Sea. It'll be worse than the last day of Pompeii. Repent, Los Angeles. Repent the rest of you and turn to God. The hour of His wrath is upon the earth. Flee while there's time to flee and come into Christ." (Sermon: The Choosing of a Bride, Los Angeles, California, April 29, 1965) And, of course, the Salton Sea is about two hundred feet below sea level, and if that big churning, that earth swallowing in like that, with hundreds of square miles, hundreds and hundreds of square miles sinking into the earth, that'll throw a tidal wave plumb to Arizona.
