1258. Occurrence given to Raymond Aguilera on 18 March 1999.

The Lord gave me chapter 9 of the Book of Job in the city of Vyborg, Russia. The Lord also told me not to anoint the train station there.

Comments:

Many people believe the bear is Russia and in this Russian train station there were many pillars holding up the roof. After reading Job chapter 9, I noticed it mentioned the word "pillars" and the word "bear". (over)
