:''Do you remember years ago when I first, when we had the little bitty structure here, and I was prophesying, and said, "It shall come to pass in the last days, don't live in a valley and '''don't eat eggs'''." I've got it on my book. I thought there was something about that, and I went and looked at it. "'''Don't eat eggs.'''" That was way back in 1933. Eggs has got something in them now, and I see where science says that a man over fifty years old should never eat an egg, because it's the hardest thing on a heart that can be eaten. Diseases!'' | |||

:''When I heard that egg situation the other day, I went back in my book where the Lord spoke to me in 1931, and there I had written in my book, "In the last days, '''warn the people not to eat eggs or live in a valley'''." And, see, not know what fallout and things would be, see, but yet the Lord forewarned that, way back thirty years ago, see, "Not to live in a valley, in the last days," and, '''"Don't eat eggs," everything will be poisoned'''.
