WORLD WAR PREDICTED

ADDRESS TO BRITISH ISRAELITES PROPHECIES IN BIBLE Half the world at war next December and the British race seeking refuge in Australia and New Zealand, was predicted by Mr. P. Knight, lecturer and traveller, speaking before the Auckland British-Israel ' Association on Tuesday evening. How modem politics, according to the view of British Israelites, were tending to form the stage for a world upheaval predicted in the Book of Daniel, was told by Mr. Knight. “Serious war will begin this December.” said Mr. Knight. The speaker contended that Germany had engineered affairs, to grip Russia. When Russia fought China, it would actually be fighting for Germany, he contended Japan, eager to have control in China, would oppose Russia, which would have the United States as an ally, because the Americans would be anxious to save capital invested on their behalf by Germany in Russia. “In Siberia there are munition centres larger than Essen, with facilities to study bacteriological and gas warfare,” the speaker said. “India will eventually seek independence and this seems certain to be allowed, with a Labour Government in England. Germany will then gain control. The danger points in the British Empire are Palestine and Egypt, India and South Africa. “Latin countries, in Europe and in South and Central America, will unite to fight the Germanic control,” Mr. Knight contended. “There will be a King of the North and a King of the South, as the Bible predicts. By sending the Marxian Communists, Lenin and Trotsky, into Russia at the time of discontent after the Great War, Germany managed changes which have given it Russia simply as a fighting machine. The present Soviet leader, Stalin, is a pure-blooded German.” Mr. Knight declared that the predictions of the Bible showed the British race, as “the chosen people of God,” to be protected from the conflict between the Germanic control and the Latin control. He saw Australia and New Zealand as the refuge countries of the British race.
