Voice of God and 2012 Presidential Election
In October 2012, Goll described an experience that he had had in 2008, that which Goll termed hearing the Voice of God stating "“When the nation has been thrown a curve ball, I will have a man prepared who comes from the state of Michigan and he will have a big mitt capable of catching whatever is thrown his way.” In October 2012, Goll stated that he at that time finally understood that the voice had been God telling him that Mitt Romney would win the election.[1] Goll later partially recanted that interpretation.[2]
