While on my mission in Europe, my mission president was called to a mission presidents' seminar (I believe held in Germany in 1998, could have been '97) where Elder Eyring presided and instructed the mission presidents on how to make us better missionaries. After the seminar, we had a mission conference where our mission president related to us something that Elder Eyring had said while instructing them.
The work in Europe has been slow for most of the time the church has been there, and my time there was no different. So the mission presidents were pressing Elder Eyring for insights into how they could increase the productivity in their missions. My mission president, in all solemnity, then related to us Elder Eyring's response. The apostle said that the Lord was preparing the Continent of Europe to be shaken at its roots (the wording might be a bit off here, this was almost a decade ago, but the meaning is accurate), and that there would come a time where the people of Europe would be struck to humility and the floodgates would open for missionary work.
The mission presidents were impressed by this obviously powerful prophecy, and asked Elder Eyring when they could expect this marvelous work and wonder to begin. Putting his hands together in deep thought, and opening his heart to the whisperings from on high, Elder Eyring replied, "Within two years."
I remember when our mission president told us that, we were so grateful to hear that the work would explode there, and perhaps seeds that we had planted would sprout into mighty oak trees. We all speculated what the great calamity would be that would befall the helpless Europeans. I hypothesized that the introduction of the Euro as the common currency in Europe would cause the banks to fail and throw Europe into a great depression.
Well, here we are in 2005, seven or eight years later, and maybe I missed the news report, but I don't believe the work there has picked up at all. On the contrary, I would wager the opposite has occurred.
No catastrophic depression, no earthquake, no prophecy fulfilled.
I would love to know if any of those mission presidents ran into Elder Eyring later and called him on it. I know my mission president would have had the opportunity. But I am sure he rationalized it away in his head, just like everything else in this church that has fallen flat on its face.

Editor Note: I particularly love and hate one reply on the recovery board. This is exactly how the LDS Church excuses it'self from anything anyone in authority there says, and I quote, "I'm sure he was just speaking as a MAN, so lets all head back to church, cause all is well." Excuse me while I go and puke.
| On Saturday April 5th, 2008 conference, Henry B. Eyring stated:
"This is the true church, the only true church because it has the keys of the priesthood."
Once again the Mormon Cult proclaims it is the one and only truth on the face of the earth. Shall we bring out the Mormon scripture that states all other religions are the "Whores of the earth"?
