Secrets from Beyond The Grave

is seen to this day: for the smoke which is still emitted, and the sulphur which men dig up there, are a proof of the calamity which befell that country.8 Before 1787, there were biblical maps that showed smoke coming off of the Dead Sea. It was reported: The south of Syria, that is, the hollow through which the Jordan flows, is a country of volcanoes [volcanic activity]: the bituminous and sulfurous sources of the Lake Asphaltis [the Dead Sea], the lava , the pumice stones thrown upon its banks, and the hot baths of Tiberius, demonstrate that this has been the seat of subterranean fire, which is not yet extinguished. Clouds of smoke are often observed to issue from the lake and new crevices to be formed upon its banks.9 During a scientific investigation in 1848, a traveler in the Holy Land named William Francis Lynch wrote the following after spending time in and around the Dead Sea: The wind blew strongly . . . during the night, and brought with it a feted smell of sulphretted hydrogen. . . . The great evaporation curtained it with a thin, transparent vapor its purple tinge contrasting strangely with the extraordinary color of the sea beneath, and . . . gave it the appearance of smoke from burning sulphur.10 Let us sum up the uniqueness of the Dead Sea: The Dead Sea is the lowest place on Earth. The southern part of the Dead Sea was the location of Sodom and Gomorrah. There is evidence of ancient volcanic activity in the region. The famed Judean wilderness's rose-colored jagged cliffs lie next to the Dead Sea. This wilderness is where Christ was tempted by the devil. One of the earliest references to the area of the Dead Sea is the battle between the four kings of Shinar and the five kings of the cities of the plain (Gen. 14:1-2). As the battle ensued, the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah met head-on in the "Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea)" (v. 3). The King James translation says: "And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there" (v. 10). Several years ago something strange began to occur around the edges of the Dead Sea in the places where the sea was receding and drying up. Because of lack of rain in Israel and the massive irrigation from the waters of the Jordan River (the only river that empties into the northern part of the sea), the Dead Sea is shrinking three feet each year. This has created sinkholes along the edges of the sea, some one hundred feet deep in this sponge-like terrain. The explanation given for these pits is: "The sinkholes happen because underground aquifers shrink and salt left by the receding Dead Sea waters erodes the earth."11 The reason for giving this unique information concerning the Dead Sea is the strange prophecies related to future events in this area, especially in relation to hell and the subterranean chambers where lost souls remain after death. The Sea Is Changing The wilderness is where unclean spirits pass after being expelled from a person. There has been smoke, asphalt, and evidence of sulfur linked with the Dead Sea. There is a subterranean fire burning underneath the Dead Sea. Pits at the Dead Sea
