115. {Catastrophe-proof Buildings Will Become Ashes } I have seen the most costly structures in buildings erected and supposed to be fireproof, and just as Sodom perished in the flames of Gods vengeance so will these proud structures become ashes. . . . The flattering monuments of mens greatness will be crumbled in the dust even before the last great destruction comes upon the world.--3SM 418 (1901). {LDE 111.6} God is withdrawing His Spirit from the wicked cities, which have become as the cities of the antediluvian world and as Sodom and Gomorrah. . . . Costly mansions, marvels of architectural skill, will be destroyed without a moments notice when the Lord sees that the owners have passed the boundaries of forgiveness. The destruction by fire of the stately buildings, supposed to be fireproof, is an illustration of how in a short time earths architecture will lie in ruins.--TDG 152 (1902). {LDE 112.1} Men will continue to erect expensive buildings, costing millions of money. Special attention will be called to their architectural beauty and the firmness and solidity with which they are constructed, but the Lord has instructed me that despite the unusual firmness and expensive display, these buildings will share the fate of the temple in Jerusalem.--5BC 1098 (1906). {LDE 112.2}
