I did so only afterconsultation with trusted friends and careful reading of his dreams postedon the web site. We found no serious problems with the material postedon the web up to that time.“When I believe something to be of God, I take steps to support it. Yet,in cases like this, I have realized that delay in taking a position wouldhave proved beneficial. A first-hand testimonial recently sent to me by areader (attached) as well as forwarded letters by persons I trust andrespect, have convinced us that our initial evaluation in support of thedreams was mistaken.“I know that many people have been blessed through the missionstories and personal testimonies in my newsletters. It is my prayer thateven in this error and correction, God will find a way to benefit thereaders, for it shows how we, as humans, need each other for support andcorrection.“It is a common tactic of the enemy to bring in the false just prior tothe real. Let us not fall into his trap by becoming allergic to all dreamsand visions as they are promised of God in these last days. Remain alertand close to your Shepherd and He will guide us faithfully through therough waters ahead to a safe harbor.”David Gates admits that he and others supported Ernie’s dreams after carefullyreading them.
