George Westwood's Prophetic Dream of the Rescue of Souls

“I was sleeping in the Conference house, Cardiff, on December 16th, 1900, and awoke about four o'clock in the morning. The room was as dark as could be, and behold I saw a large, magnificent ship, it seemed as large as a great city, the beauty and brightness of it was as the noonday sun, and I saw a large sea, as it were, and in this were millions of people perishing. It was a dark sea, and the brightness of the light that shone from that great, magnificent ship made light enough so as to extend all over the dark waters. I beheld and saw aboard the ship a large number of women and children, and I heard them say it was a fearful sight to see all those people perishing in the great waters. The women and children said that they were willing to sacrifice all they had to help to save these people that were perishing, even to the loss of their lives, and the lives of their husbands and fathers. Then 1 saw a large body of men, who went out in lifeboats to save those that were perishing, and I noticed that a large number of them were let down from out of this huge ship, and that there were two men in each, who paddled in the lifeboats until they went all over this large, dark body of water. Then there arose a great storm while these wen were out who went to rescue those that were perishing; they were tossed about on the mighty waves, yet they could see all over the large, rolling body of water. I noticed also that these lifeboats were like little specks of light out on the mighty deep, and while there was only a few who would be saved after these men had risked their lives to save them, I saw a few get into these lifeboats, while all the rest would not be saved. As I listened I heard these millions say, ‘this is good enough for me,’ then they would roll over and perish, while these few that would be saved were lifted into the lifeboats, and they were taken to this immense ship, where this big light was, thus they were saved from perishing ; but I also saw a few of these rescued ones go down in the storm. — Millennial Star 63:9”
