QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPIRITS IN PRISON

1. IT WAS AFTER MIDNIGHT; we were about asleep, and MO stirred a bit, and with his eyes still shut‚ muttered, "WE CAN'T GO DOWN IN THE DEEP WATER."

2. EAGER TO FIND OUT THE REST—for I knew there would probably be more in that limitless realm of the Spirit—I asked, "What deep water?"—and as I asked question after question, the Lord began to answer and show us more wonderful things!:

3. WE CANNOT GO DOWN INTO THE DEEP WATER BECAUSE THE FORCES OF EVIL ARE THERE. We have power with Jesus in the atmospheric heavens. The Devil has power over the rocks and the deep. Some spirits are in prison in the strata, and some are close to the surface, and some are very deep in the rocks and water. They cannot leave their strata where Jesus put them, but you can go to them, if you want those evil spirits! (I‚ Maria‚ had asked why we couldn't go down there.) They are very deep in the Pit. Jesus' prison is down there in the water.

4. EVEN JESUS WENT DOWN WHERE THEY ARE AND TALKED TO THE SPIRITS IN PRISON. You can go and talk to them. Moses and David don't talk to them because they're in the Heavenlies. The evil spirits are down in the pit and the rocks and the deep. They (Moses and David) are in the land of the living. Jesus put them there to talk to you.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT MARIA

5. MARIA ASKS: WHAT IS MY KEY? MO: I'M YOUR ONLY KEY. You cannot operate without me. Why not? Because that's the way Jesus made you—a robot. You write down the music of David.

6. MARIA: JESUS SAID HE GAVE YOU MANY COUNSELLORS. Who else counsels David?

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT PETER THE HERMIT AND THE PIED PIPER

7. MO: MY MOTHER‚ MY FATHER‚ MY GRANDFATHER‚ William Jennings Bryan. Maria: Who else counsels David? ... Martin Luther. Who else? Tyndale.

8. MARIA: DOES PETER THE HERMIT COUNSEL DAVID? MO smiles as he observes the Heavenly counselors, and answers slowly ... NO, BUT THE PIED PIPER DOES! MO chuckles as he continues to see the Pied Piper: He has big ears and a funny tall hat, and long blond hair. He plays the flute, and all the children like to dance and sing—'cause he likes children. My children dance! (There is a long pause, and MO is silent, falling asleep again,—But Maria wants to know more!)

9. MARIA: WHY DOESN'T PETER THE HERMIT HELP YOU? MO: Poor Peter! He's busy! He's in Europe—Our kids over there.—In the Children's Crusade! It's a Children's Crusade going on there now. Peter is over there. He helps them!

10. MO: PIED PIPER—HE HELPS ME FROM THE BEGINNING. He helps me play sweet music and they love it, because they know I love them and the Pied Piper loves them!

11. MARIA: WHERE DID HE TAKE THE CHILDREN? MO: HE TOOK THEM ACROSS THE RIVER TO THE MOUNTAINS where they couldn't find them. They dance and sing and play and live like Gypsies! 'Cause the Pied Piper, he was a Gypsy—you know that? He helped them get rid of the rats, and then they wouldn't pay him‚ so then he played to their children and they followed him. … And they think that's a fairy tale, but it's true! It seemed like he was a bit crazy, but he loved Jesus, so Jesus gave him all their children! Like Moses led the Children of Israel and gave sweet music to their ears in the power of God and Jesus, he led the children to a place in the back. Maria: Place in the back? What's the back? MO: Away from things!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT ERIC THE NORSEMAN

12. MARIA: WHO ELSE COUNSELS DAVID? (There is a pause as though MO is looking to see.) And then: "Eric the Norseman—he is a pioneer who explored the North, and was one of my forefathers, and he loves me. He wants me to help his children."

QUESTIONS AND ANSWER ABOUT IVAN THE TERRIBLE AND RASPUTIN

13. MARIA: DOES IVAN COUNSEL DAVID? MO: YES. Maria: Which Ivan? MO: Ivan the Terrible! ... And Rasputin! Maria: Rasputin? I thought he was a bad man! MO: Rasputin was a little bit like me. Maria: Why? MO: He had the gifts, but then when he used them, he could have… Maria: Could have what? MO: ...because they stood in the way…

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT MARTIN LUTHER

14. MARIA: MARTIN LUTHER HELPS YOU? MO: YES, He doesn't want me to make the same mistakes he made. He wants us to have a Revolution—rather than just a Reformation.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT ANNE BOLEYN, CZARINA OF RUSSIA AND KATRINA

15. MARIA: DOES ANNE OF A THOUSAND DAYS HELP YOU?—Anne Boleyn? MO: She is there. She helped King Henry break with the church, so Jesus blessed her. She loves me. She's very Revolutionary! Jesus blessed her. She's happy ... Czarina of Russia—She's a Christian. She's Ivan's young new wife—the wife of Ivan the Terrible. She was converted by us. MARIA: DOES KATRINA HELP YOU? MO: I THINK KATRINA HELPS ME. She is you. Honey! She married a Gypsy before she married the Czar. She loved me because I told her of Jesus. But she had to marry the Czar. She loves me through you. She couldn't marry me. She had to marry the Czar 'cause she's the princess, but her heart and spirit are in you to love me, the Missionary. (He did marry Katrina, but the Czar took her for himself, a common practice of kings in ancient times.)

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT MARIA

16. MARIA: CAN I LEARN TO PLAY THE GUITAR? MO: She will sing more words with the pen than ever with the string!

MO CONFESSES HIS MISTAKE OF RESISTING THE LORD WHEN ABOUT TO GO ON A SPIRIT TRIP

17. MARIA: WHEN YOU SAW THAT DESIGN THE OTHER DAY IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES, WERE WE GOING TO GO TO SPACE CITY? (This question refers to something that happened two days ago and the following insertion is an explanation of that incident:) (MO: I BEGAN TO SEE A SORT OF PECULIAR DESIGN COMING UP IN FRONT OF MY EYES while sitting at my desk. It was perfectly symmetrical, but the internal parts of the design were constantly changing. It was very beautiful‚ but rather dark and ominous looking, and grew larger as it drew nearer‚ and seemed to be coming up from below rather than down from above. I WAS IMPRESSED THAT I SHOULD BEGIN TO DESCRIBE IT—with the feeling that if I did, I would be taken on another trip. But I resisted it and I distinctly argued with the Lord that I didn't want to describe it because I had a lot of work to do, and I didn't have time to take another five-hour trip (as with "Space City")!

18. SO IMMEDIATELY AFTER RESISTING THE URGE TO DESCRIBE IT, THE DESIGN BEGAN TO MELT and flow in a wide curved path toward the right into another beautifully, but ominously symmetrical pattern of parallel lines‚ intersecting each other at various angles—mostly black and white, and almost completely obscuring the right-hand side of my visual area, from the central focal point of my vision to the extreme right, so that I was unable to see anything at either the focal point or to the right of the focal point of my vision.

19. FOR EXAMPLE, TO SEE ANY PARTICULAR OBJECT, I COULD NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT IT, for it would be obscured. I had to look slightly to the right of it, and then I could see it. For example, while trying to watch the news, the word "NEWS‚" which appeared in large block letters completely across the TV screen, immediately preceding the news programme‚ was half obscured if I looked directly at it, so that I could only see the letters "N E"—but the letters "W S" were completely obliterated. I thought perhaps that something had happened to one of my eyes—or that the trouble was in my eye—but I would shut both eyes and the design would still be there—and whether I opened one or the other, it was still there, blocking half the vision of either eye.

20. THIS CONDITION SERIOUSLY TROUBLED ME, and, as many visual difficulties will, gave me a slight headache‚ and made my stomach feel a little squeamish. But I didn't want to worry the others here about it—as I had had it a couple of times before, some years previously—but each time with earnest prayer‚ it had disappeared. It had even happened one time when I was driving in N.Y., and I could only read half the signs.

21. THIS TIME I JUST TOLD THE FOLKS I HAD A LITTLE HEADACHE and didn't feel well, and please pray for me. But it seemed to grow worse instead of better—and it wasn't until during the news that I got truly desperate about it, after it had lasted for about five hours, from one to six, and I confessed to Maria my true condition, and had her lay hands on me again to pray very earnestly that I'd be delivered—and almost immediately it began to clear up!

22. BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL LATER THAT NIGHT, AS I DESCRIBED THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE to everyone here, that it began to dawn on me that the five hours was exactly the same length of time that I'd told the Lord I couldn't afford to spend on another trip—whereupon I immediately lost half my vision for just about five hours! I realize now that the headache and loss of vision must have been a chastisement from the Lord for my unwillingness to take the time for the trip in the Spirit‚ so He allowed me to lose the time anyway by losing half my vision for five hours! It doesn't pay to resist the Spirit of God when He wants to show you something. Don't ever tell God you haven't got time for Him to reveal something to you. May the Lord forgive me!

23. BUT THE DESIGN HAD SEEMED TO BE A LITTLE OMINOUS AND FEARFUL, and I had a feeling that it was not going to be like the trip to Space City. Therefore, I was actually afraid to take it, as well as being impatient about the time. Because I was afraid of it, and didn't want it, the Lord didn't make me go.

24. (SO WHEN I, MARIA, ASK THIS QUESTION, I AM STILL WONDERING ABOUT THE STRANGE DESIGN, and what its significance was): "When you saw that design the other day in front of your eyes, were we going to go to Space City?"

25. MO: NO, WE WERE GOING TO SEE THE INSIDE OF THE EARTH—all the spirits that are imprisoned.

26. MARIA: What were we going to do there?

27. MO: WE WERE GOING TO PREACH TO THE SPIRITS IN PRISON.

28. MARIA: DO THEY HAVE TO STAY IN PRISON?

29. MO: NO‚ NO, NO!—NOT IF THEY RECEIVE THE WORD! They can go up and live outside of Space City‚—it's beautiful there!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT ENDTIME EVENTS AND GODAHFI

30. (NOW MARIA ASKS SOME QUESTIONS REGARDING THE FUTURE—I didn't get it all—just this:) ... DAVID WILL STAND UP AGAINST THE ANTICHRIST? MO: Yes.

31. (We don't understand about this, or what prompted it, but I‚ Maria‚ must have asked another question‚ and MO spoke these words:)

32. MO: ... THE KING OF THE SOUTH AGAINST THE KING OF THE NORTH—And all the Kings of the East. Rev.16:12; Dan.11:44.

33. MARIA: WHAT ARE YOU?

34. MO: ONE OF THE KINGS OF THE EAST. ... I would not be from Egypt, and I would not be from Rusk.

35. MARIA: WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT GODAHFI? (Young Revolutionary leader of Libya)

36. MO: HE PREPARES THE WAY FOR THE KING OF EGYPT. (Rev.13—The False Prophet?) He will be second in Egypt. (Egypt and Libya have just joined into one nation with Syria.)

37. MARIA: DO YOU KNOW WHO WILL BE FIRST?

38. MO: NO ... NOT SADAT. In Paris‚ I told you there would still be another King. (Shortly after Nasser's death, … we were questioning ourselves as to whether he might become the Antichrist—the young man from Egypt. This was even before Libya joined Egypt—and we had immediately received this prophecy right on the street—"THERE WILL YET BE ANOTHER KING IN EGYPT—FOR BEHOLD, OUT OF EGYPT HAVE I CALLED HIM!"—Like the "Warning Prophecy" and Jeane Dixon's vision!) We will help him until he becomes King—because it is the will of God! ... He has very great magic! Maria: Who? Godahfi? MO: Yes. Maria: I thought you said he wasn't the King of the South. MO: He's the King of the West—because Libya's west of Egypt. He will be next to the King. … (After this, MO is very weary and falls asleep). ADDITIONAL NOTES next day while reading over the above:

MORE ON MO'S SPIRIT COUNSELLORS!

39. While reading the part about Peter the Hermit, MO burst into tongues: "HOW MANY ARE THE HELPERS OF DAVID! How many are the duties of those that help Thy children!—And all of these things shall be written in a book." (The picture was like they had lots of spiritual helpers over in Europe, and they're really busy—they have a big drive on!)

40. MO: "WHEN I WAS GIVING YOU THE NAMES OF THOSE COUNSELLORS, it was kind of like I was looking at that row of people that told us farewell from Space City."
