Must America Prepare for the "GREAT DROUGHT" of the 1970's? - Jerry Gentry - November 1971

Jerry Gentry

In 1971, the American Southwest was hit by a severe drought. Will conditions ease next year or must America prepare for a prolonged and devastating drought? "And your heaven that is over your head shall be brass, and the earth that is under you shall be iron. The Lord shall make the rain of your land powder and dust; from heaven shall it come down upon you, until you be destroyed," wrote Moses in the Old Testament. Periodically, such prophecies have descended upon nations ancient and modern with almost apocalyptic vengeance. Although often falling short of the ultimate horror - utter destruction of land by drought - a cyclical pattern of devastating drought has been striking the North American continent about every 20 years. In 1971 a new and perhaps very critical pattern of drought began once again. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
