In October 1943 he received his first command from Yahweh saying, "You must leave Jehovah's Witnesses, Move to the country, stay there by yourself, and I will teach you all about Jehovah's Witnesses; and afterward you will get back together in a way that will surprise them". Obediently he moved out to the country in Vineland, New Jersey. It was also at this time in 1944, that he left the Jehovah's Witnesses.

In 1945 he received his next vision from Yahweh and was told "You are a Prophet". In 1952 he was given the understanding of Revelation 13, but he did not yet have the understanding of the calculation of the 666. Through inspiration he realized that the king of iron, and the king of clay, spoken of in Daniel 2, would be the two nations that would combine to build the "abomination of desolation" the one world government. They would elect the Pope of Rome to be the temporal ruler. This One world government would only last for three and a half years,. In 1964 he sat down and began to write out the elements of the beast spoken of in Revelation thirteen and came up with the calculation of the 666.
