Prophecy - Martin Ettington
Chapter 1: Introduction
The ability to tell the future has always fascinated man since prehistoric times.
Prophets have spawned numerous religions and methods of divination to tell the future. Prophets are not only able predict some major events seems but may be able to control them.
Prophets from the Bible were considered major persons of importance in those times and their predictions were major influences on the decisions of leaders.
In my own life I’ve had numerous experiences with premonitions involving the future. They have varied from strong visions, to dreams, to vague feelings, to strong fear.
Even though I’ve studied many other types of paranormal experiences and had many, these experiences about future events seem to be my strongest natural precognitive ability.
These events also formed major influences on my life, and their study and analysis has therefore been a big passion of mine.
In this book my goal is to cover explain the history of Prophecy and Divination, describe the types of experiences people have, and to analyze these phenomena.
We need to define what time is and what exactly it means to predict the future?
How exact does a prediction need to be to be considered valid?
What is the mechanism as to how predictions of the future works?
Finally, is this ability something that is only given to a gifted few, or is it an inherent ability we all possess and can learn to use.
Finally, I provide methods to allow each of you to develop your own prophetic abilities, and advice on how to use them properly.
I hope you enjoy this exploration and can achieve some useful insights in your life—and your future—and learn to shape it too.
Chapter 2: Advice for Sensitive Persons
Some persons reading this book may have been experiencing paranormal events or prophecies all their life.
You may have had people call you crazy or had nervous breakdowns due to these experiences. You may feel you are having hallucinations and can’t live with sane people.
Most people were raised in an environment of ignorance to poo-poo or ignore these types of experiences and intuitions so you will not get support from the average person.
Nobody in Western civilization gets an education in these experiences as a normal part of their lives
My advice is to accept your abilities as gifts. Yes, you have a wonderful gift and not a disability.
Ask for guidance from God, the spirits, or whomever you feel comfortable with.
Feel confident that your will receive guidance.
Remember, as long as you are able to function well in today’s world—you are mentally healthy. If you see things or experience things other people don’t, then don’t be afraid of it- just accept it and learn more about your abilities.
Also, don’t forget that there are many more resources available today for sensitives such as yourself. Look on the Internet, in books stores, and to groups which teach control of paranormal abilities such as meditation groups.
Chapter 3: Definitions of Time and Prophecy
To have a context for discussing prophecy and foreseeing the future, first we need to talk about what time is, and what is prophecy.
Defining Time
The earliest recorded Western philosophy of time was expounded by the ancient Egyptian thinker Ptahhotep (c. 2650–2600 BC), who said: Do not lessen the time of following desire, for the wasting of time is an abomination to the spirit.
The Vedas, the earliest texts on Indian philosophy and Hindu philosophy dating back to the late 2nd millennium BC, describe ancient Hindu cosmology, in which the universe goes through repeated cycles of creation, destruction and rebirth, with each cycle lasting 4,320,000 years. Ancient Greek philosophers, including Parmenides and Heraclitus, wrote essays on the nature of time.
In Book 11 of St. Augustine's Confessions, he ruminates on the nature of time, asking, What then is time? If no one asks me, I know: if I wish to explain it to one that asketh, I know not.
He settles on time being defined more by what it is not than what it is.
In contrast to ancient Greek philosophers who believed that the universe had an infinite past with no beginning, medieval philosophers and theologians developed the concept of the universe having a finite past with a beginning. This view was inspired by the creation myth shared by the three Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The Christian philosopher, John Philoponus, presented the first such argument against the ancient Greek notion of an infinite past.
Eastern religions however take an entirely different approach. They believe that time is an illusion and that our minds are trapped in illusion. That once we free ourselves of the illusion by living in our core being or spirit then we are released from the illusion of time.
Prophecy
Prophecy (1), generally, describes the disclosing of information that is not known to the prophet by any ordinary means. In religion, this is thought to be a divinely inspired revelation or interpretation. Although the concept is found throughout the religions of the world, the term has found popular acceptance through the work and influence of the Hebrew prophets. For claims of prophecy or contents of prophecies see belief systems and religion topics at the end of the article.
Rabbinic scholar Maimonides, suggested that prophecy is, in truth and reality, an emanation sent forth by the Divine Being through the medium of the Active Intellect, in the first instance to man's rational faculty, and then to his imaginative faculty.
This closely relates to the definition by Al-Fârâbî who developed the theory of prophecy in Islam.
The Catholic Encyclopedia defines prophecy as understood in its strict sense, it means the foreknowledge of future events, though it may sometimes apply to past events of which there is no memory, and to present hidden things which cannot be known by the natural light of reason.
From a skeptical point of view, there is a Latin maxim: prophecy written after the fact (vaticinium ex eventu)
