Update on Dr. Eby

(Forwarded by e-mail to list on November 7, 2001 while out of town)

Dear Friends:

This is a FLASH update on Dr. Richard Eby.

I am traveling out of state this week, do not have my regular computer, have minimal Internet access, and did not intend any messages such as this. However, this is so HOT I must pass it on immediately.

Most of you know of retired medical doctor Dr. Richard Eby. Decades ago he had a clinical death experience when the Lord took him to heaven and showed him marvelous things beyond description. Then the Lord sent Eby back and told him to preach the gospel, and that he would not die before the rapture.

At that time, Eby was relatively young man. He is now about age 90, and in rapidly failing health. Because of his experience, many have been watching his health as a signpost for the rapture. It is now revealed that this is what the Lord intended.

I am acquainted with two people who know Dr. Eby personally and see him often. It has been reported to me several times that Eby cannot have much longer to live. His heart stopped beating 2-3 times this past July. He is in a wheelchair and cannot care for himself. Lately he has lost mental functioning and has not even recognized his wife.

Yesterday Rev. Ron Patterson left a message on my answering service at home and I was able to speak to him last night. Ron has been a close friend of Dr. Eby for many years. In fact, Eby flies Ron from Kentucky to California once a month to preach at his church.

Ron reports that he was at Dr. Eby's church this past Saturday and Eby was rolled in, in a wheel chair. He seemed greatly improved mentally, but physically just as bad. Ron reports that it was a greatly anointed service, one of the greatest he has ever seen. After the service, Dr. Eby grabbed Ron by the arm and said he had something important he had to tell him.

With great emotion, Dr. Eby shared that the Lord had visited him again that week, on about Tuesday or Wednesday, as Ron remembers. That would have made it October 30 or 31. Eby said, "I want to tell you because I know you will believe me." Eby said that he revealed several things to him:

1. The Lord affirmed what he previously told Eby, that he will not die before the rapture.

2. The Lord said he had not healed him because people all over the world know about his testimony and are watching, and the Lord wanted Eby's condition to clearly reveal to the world how close the rapture is.

3. The Lord told him, "It is too late now for your message. Your testimony is losing its effect. Your battle is all but over. I am ready to come."

4. The Lord ominously told him that things are closing so rapidly that the only message now to the people of the world is "repent or perish."

5. Eby said the Lord further told him, "In three weeks from now, something will happen that will change the course of history for the whole world." No further information on this was given. (Three weeks from October 30-31 would be Thanksgiving week, I believe. Three weeks exactly from October 30 is November 20.)

Dr. Eby personally believes that the rapture is so close that it may be in November and may be the event the Lord spoke about, but that is just his opinion.

On the way home, Ron picked up a USA Today newspaper in the seat next to him and his eyes fell on an article mentioning that on November 20 the United Nations will name ten members to the Security Council, and he wonders if this has anything to do with the word Eby received. Or could it be the rapture? Or a new terrorist strike with a weapon of mass destruction? Or a meteor hit upon the earth? Or a sudden war and nuclear exchange in the Middle East? No one knows.

Whichever, let us keep short, short accounts with the Lord, pray for others, witness, and pray that we will be counted worthy to escape the things coming upon the earth and to stand before the Son of Man.

Independent testimonies that seem to corroborate the above are on my Web site at: http://www.oocities.org/bramlett2000/updates2001/ronnie.html

Because of my limited Internet access the next few days I would appreciate it if you would not reply to this message. I should be back home early next week.

God bless you,

Jim

 


P.S. I spoke with Ron again on November 11, 2001 and he had spoken again with Dr. Eby. He said Eby’s mind seems very clear now, itself a miracle, and that Eby is in great spirits. Eby said that this latest visitation of the Lord has given him new hope that the rapture is extremely near and his days of suffering are about over.
