Prophecy is my primary interest because of a vision that saved my life over 25 years ago. God knows and tells our future
1Thus saith the LORD, Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
2Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because there is no water, and dieth for thirst.
3I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
That is the opening lines of the King James Version of Isaiah chapter 50. It will be understood by the time the heavens are “clothed in blackness.” There are several mentions in various prophecies of this event, when the stars no longer shine, the sun is shrouded in darkness, and the moon no longer gives off its light.
Something else is given for us to understand. It says that God will “dry up the sea.” We know now that this is quite possible. We know it because scientists have been studying ice cores from glaciers around the world that indicate quiet clearly that during past “ice ages,” quite a lot of water was stored in the glaciers thus reducing the level of the oceans. That last major “ice age” was 12,000 years ago. We know that at that time, sea level was at least 500 feet less than it is now. We are being told that this will happen again. We know from science that it will begin to happen in just a matter of a few years from now. That is how we should know to expect the man who is being described in the next few lines.
4The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
5The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
6I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
He is describing his self, and what he will have to deal with when he gets here. We are being told that he will be “learned,” and quite capable of understanding and also explaining what is going on, from a religious as well as a scientific viewpoint. He will come along “in season,” to explain all this to the “weary.” The “weary” is a description of people’s attitudes who will be present when it’s time for his arrival. They will be tired of waiting, and will have “sold their selves,” as described in the opening lines of this chapter.
He will have to take a lot of punishment from people when he arrives, and starts explaining to people what is going on. Those who were “tired of waiting,” and sold their selves will despise him. We are being told to expect that, and his reaction to that. He will NOT be accepted initially, as those who grew “weary” have taught us. He will do his “job” anyway, and take their abuse.
7For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
8He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
9Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
He will be “cocky,” and challenge those who think they should take him on. He will invite them to “bring it on,” and then watch them “deteriorate.” That doesn’t sound like the Messiah that is presented to us by those who grew “weary” of waiting, and created their own version of him, does it?
10Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
That line is telling us to NOT be ashamed because you have “no light.” It’s telling us to “trust in the name of the LORD,” our God, and “his servant.” In a round about way, it is telling us to ignore those who claim to possess the “light.”
11Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
That is a warning to all those “weary” souls that tried to create their own “light.” They shall “lie down in sorrow,” because they will not listen to the “servant” of God, the true Messiah, when he arrives. Could that be because they tried to create their own version of the Messiah? Did they try to make a Messiah out of the wrong man, and then try to maintain their dignity after doing so?
Did the heavens turn black when their Messiah showed up? Did the seas dry up?
“This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.” The “servant of God” will let the ones who claim to “come in his name,” with their own “light” perish in “sorrow.”
“The Light-skinned People will be given a choice between two paths. If they choose the right path the Seventh Fire will light the Eighth Fire and final fire of brotherhood and sisterhood. If they choose the wrong path, remaining on the path of the mind, then the destruction they brought with them will come back to destroy them. The people of the earth will experience much suffering and death.” – Edward Benton Banai (a Midewiwin teacher and Grand Chief of the Three Fires Midewiwin Lodge)
That quote is from the book, “The Mishomis Book,” and is a relatively recent rendition of a prophecy that was handed down “word of mouth” for over a thousand years. It’s the last part of what is known as, “The Prophecy of the Seven Fires.” It can be found in several places on the Internet in various forms, some with and some without interpretations. Virtually all the interpretations presented with it agree that we are approaching the “seventh fire.” That is easy to see when anyone reads the prophecy in its entirety, which is presented at the end of this interpretation, which is really an explanation.
If you do a search on the prophecy, you might find that there are various forms of the prophecy, with the last paragraph taken out of context. It appears that a lot of people will readily misquote great words to serve their own misguided missions. If you take a look at the next to the last line, you will see something that quite a lot of people do not want to deal with.
“If they choose the wrong path, remaining on the path of the mind, then the destruction they brought with them will come back to destroy them.”
That line gets taken out of context quite a lot, and is misconstrued to indicate that the rest of humanity is counting on the “Light-skinned People,” for everyone’s salvation. What it’s really saying is that the “Light-skinned People” in North America are going to die, if they rely on their minds, when the air we breathe gets tainted; which is also part of the prophecy, as indicated in the first part of the “Seventh Fire.”
“Much of the forests and prairies would be gone so the air would begin to lose the power of life.”
We know for sure that pollution is rapidly taking its toll on our environment, and we also know for sure that we can’t live without oxygen. What we are being told there is that we better have a source of oxygen when that time comes, or we are going to die. We are told in the line that follows that one, that something the “Light-skinned People” bring would cause this to happen.
“The way of the mind brought to the red, black, and yellow nation by the white nation would bring danger to the whole earth.”
It’s not hard to figure out what was brought with the “mind.” We all love our technological achievements, and most people simply ignore the FACT that some of our technology is polluting our environment so bad that it’s only a matter of time before our world is so polluted that it won’t sustain life. We are being warned there that we will NOT be able to come up with a technological solution for this problem.
That is what our government is currently considering. Our resources are being spent on developing “scrubbers,” instead of mandating laws to stop pollution. That prophecy is telling us that the “scrubbers” we are currently working on WILL NOT work. It is also telling us that those people who are counting on technology to get us through this are going to take the “wrong path.”
Quite a lot of people will make the wrong choice, and the reason for that is also pointed out in this part of the prophecy.
"As this fire loses its heat there will come among the people those who promise great joy and salvation. If the people accept this promise and abandon the old ways, the struggle will continue for many generations. This promise is false and it will nearly destroy those who accept it."
That is from the “Firth Fire” part of this prophecy, and is clearly talking about “Christianity.” The “promise” that was given is that “Jesus is coming back,” and he is going to magically transport people to safety. That belief will indeed get a lot of people killed when a technological “fix” never materializes. That’s the “back door” solution to our current problems. Millions of people think that when we kill the earth, they get a free ride out of here. As that part of the prophecy points out, it’s a “false belief,” which shouldn’t be hard to comprehend. After all, why would God allow the very people who are destroying the earth without remorse to continue living here, while everyone else “goes to Hell?”
The essence of this prophecy is clear. White people will be given a choice between “staying the course” and dying, or open up to their spiritual being and do the right thing, which is pointed out in the following lines.
“If the New People will find trust in the way of all things, in the circle, they will no longer need the selfish voice of the ego and they can begin to trust their inner voice. Wisdom will be once again be found in dreams of the night and of the day.”
That’s going to be a hard one for most white people to do. Those who can hear their “inner voice” are deemed “insane” nowadays. Believe it or not, that is also what this is talking about.
“But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.” - Jeremiah 31:33-34 KJV
Don’t worry; just because one group of people came along and tried to convince everyone else that THEY were the “house of Israel,” doesn’t change the FACT that the true “house of Israel” includes everyone that lives through the destruction that is coming. They are referred to as the “New People,” in “The Prophecy of the Seven Fires, which follows.
The Prophecy of the Seven Fires
according to The Mishomis Book by Edward Benton Banai
Seven prophets appeared to the people. The First Prophet told the people that in the time of the First Fire they would leave their homes by the sea and follow the sign of the megis. They were to journey west into strange lands in search of a island in the shape of a turtle. This island will be linked to the purification of the earth. Such an island was to be found at the beginning and at the end of their journey. Along the way they would find a river connecting two large sweet water seas. This river would be narrow and deep as though a knife had cut through the land. They would stop seven times to create villages but they would know that their journey was complete when they found food growing on the water. If they did not leave, there would be much suffering and they would be destroyed. And they would be pursued and attacked by other nations along the way so they must be strong and ready to defend themselves.
The Second Prophet told them they could recognize the Second Fire because while they were camped by a sweet water sea they would lose their direction and that the dreams of a little boy would point the way back to the true path, the stepping stones to their future.
The Third Prophet said that in the Third Fire the Anishinabe would find the path to the lands prepared for them and they would continue their journey west to the place where food grows upon the water.
The Fourth Prophet was two who came as one. The first told them to expect a race of people who had light skin. The future of the Anishinabeg would be known by the face the light-skinned people would wear. If they come in brotherhood there would be a time of wonderful change. New knowledge would be joined with the old knowledge and the two peoples would join to make a mighty nation. Two other nations would join to make four and they would become the mightiest nation of all. If they brought only their knowledge and their good-will they would be like brothers.
The second being of the Fourth Prophet warned the light-skinned race might wear the face of death that would almost look the same as the face of brotherhood. "If they come carrying a weapon and if they seem to be suffering, beware. Behind this face is greed. You shall recognize the face of death if the rivers are poisoned and the fish are unfit to eat."
The Fifth Prophet said that in the time of the Fifth Fire there will be a struggle between the way of the mind of the light-skinned people and the natural path of spirit of the many nations of natural people. "As this fire loses its heat there will come among the people those who promise great joy and salvation. If the people accept this promise and abandon the old ways, the struggle will continue for many generations. This promise is false and it will nearly destroy those who accept it."
The Sixth Prophet told them that in the time of Sixth Fire it would be clear that the promise accepted during the Fifth Fire was false. "Those who were deceived by this promise will take their children away from the teachings of the elders. The elders will lose their purpose in life and many will become sick and die. Many people will be out of balance and the cup of life will become the cup of grief."
The Seventh Prophet was younger than the others who had come and there was a glowing light from his eyes. He said that there would come a time when the waters had been so poisoned that the animals and plants that lived there would fall sick and begin to die. Much of the forests and prairies would be gone so the air would begin to lose the power of life. The way of the mind brought to the red, black, and yellow nation by the white nation would bring danger to the whole earth. In this time there will arise Osh-ki-bi-ma-di-zeeg, a new people who will emerge from the clouds of illusion. They will retrace their steps to find the treasures that had been left by the trail. The stories that had been lost will be returned to them. They will remember the Original Instructions and find strength in the way of the circle. Their search will take them to the elders and the new people will ask for guidance. But many of the elders will have walked the Path of the Souls to the Star Web. Many elders will have forgotten their wisdom and they will not be able to help. Some of the elders will point in the wrong direction and others will remain silent because of their fear. Some of the elders will be silent because no one has asked them for their wisdom.
If the New People will find trust in the way of all things, in the circle, they will no longer need the selfish voice of the ego and they can begin to trust their inner voice. Wisdom will be once again be found in dreams of the night and of the day. The sacred fire will once again be lit. The Light-skinned People will be given a choice between two paths. If they choose the right path the Seventh Fire will light the Eighth Fire and final fire of brotherhood and sisterhood. If they choose the wrong path, remaining on the path of the mind, then the destruction they brought with them will come back to destroy them. The people of the earth will experience much suffering and death.
Among the greatest mysteries found on the American Continents are petroglyphs of the sun. The sun is depicted in ancient rock art with lines emanating from a circular object, which clearly represents the sun, complete with solar flares. The mystery is about how the ancient people of the Americas knew about solar flares. You can’t detect solar flares or coronal mass ejections with the naked eye. “Modern man” didn’t know solar flares until 1859, so how did ancient people of the Americas know about them? Why did they include solar flares in their depictions of the sun in their petroglyphs?
The sun shows up in ancient prophecies of various Native Americans, handed down by word of mouth from generation to generation. The following is part of an Incan prophecy, delivered in 1990.
“For the past five centuries they preserved their sacred knowledge, and finally, in recent years, the signs were fulfilled that the great time of change was at hand: the high mountain lagoons have dried, the condor is nearly extinct and the discovery of the Golden Temple has occurred, following the earthquake in 1949 which represented the wrath of the sun.”
“The prophecies are optimistic. They refer to the end of time as we know it -- the death of a way of thinking and a way of being, the end of a way of relating to nature and to the earth. In the coming years, the Incas expect us to emerge into a golden age, a golden millennium of peace.”
“The prophecies also speak of tumultuous changes happening in the earth, and in our psyche, redefining our relationships and spirituality. The next pachacuti, or great change, has already begun, and it promises the emergence of a new human after this period of turmoil. The chaos and upheaval characteristic of this period will last another four years, according to the Q'ero.”
“The paradigm of European civilization will continue to collapse, and the way of the Earth people will return. Even more importantly, the shamanic elders speak about a tear in the fabric of time itself.” - Peruvian Spiritual Messenger Willaru
It would be lovely if we could just go around singing “It’s the dawning of the age of Aquarius, the age of Aquarius,” and simply wait for the changes to take place. But it’s not like that. Those who make it through the changes will indeed be a “new order of humanity,” but there will be a price to pay. That’s because the prophecies tell us about things like earthquakes, famine, disease, and wars. Walking around with good intentions and singing won’t get you through the period described. Food, water, shelter, an air supply, and separation from idiots will be required for your survival. According to the prophecy just quoted, four years worth of upheavals is what is expected. It’s going to be difficult to grow food and breath during that period of time.
The Inca also indicate that they know something else about the upheavals that they predicted. They relate earthquakes to the “wrath of the sun.” Modern scientists don’t even know about that yet, even though they currently have the data available to make the analogy. It’s known that the two major quakes of 2004 and 2005 were preceded by coronal mass ejections, and it is also known that the coronal mass ejection of 1859 was followed by a string of earthquakes, some of them major. Yet they haven’t made the connection yet. The connection is made in the prophecies of the Old Testament as well, and everyone who uses the Bible as the basis of their religion also ignores them. For example, the Christian leaders say that this line is talking about how bright the church will shine: “Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.” – Isaiah 30:26 KJV
That line is clearly talking about the sun’s brightness, and is relating it to the time when people are healed of their ignorance. Christian leaders relate it to the church because the sun didn’t get brighter when Jesus came, so they had to make up something to account for it. We have known since 1859 that massive solar flares cause the sun to get brighter, and we also know that coronal mass ejections from the sun are capable of destroying electrical devices on earth, including the generators that fee those electrical devices. When that line in Isaiah happens, we are going to see a world wide black out, followed by earthquakes and volcanic activity that is not currently imaginable. It’s supposed to get so bad that the sun will be darkened, and we won’t be able to see the moon. “For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.” Isaiah 13:10 KJV
The only thing that could cause us to not see the stars would be smoke. That smoke is also going to make it quite difficult to breath, unless you have your own private source of oxygen. If the Inca are correct, you are going to need a four-year supply of oxygen, food, and water to get you through the destruction. Since the Inca were informed enough to know about the sun’s influence on the earth, it’s a safe bet that are also correct about the length of time as well. The also knew about something else that we should be aware of. They mentioned that there would be a tear in the fabric of time. That is not hard to figure out either, if you understand that time is related to our orbit around the sun. It stands to reason that if the earth is hit by a massive amount of energy from the sun, that our orbit might be altered a bit. If that happens, then we will indeed witness a “tear in the fabric of time,” which also explains the Biblical prophecy of the “end of years.” If our orbit changes, then our calendars will have to reflect that change. It will be the “end of time” to us, because we will have to develop a new calendar.
The Mayans also knew about the sun’s relationship to the end of this era, as shown in this excerpt. “When the original thirteen baktuns were created, a war was waged which caused the country to cease to exist. Little by little, however, our enemies came to hear the prophesies of Ahau; but finally even the hope of hearing Ahau is brought to an end, because of the words of opposition. When the need arises for the high authority at the head of the mat to safeguard our children, then we will feel deeply the tragedy of being captives in war; also when we are ordered to obey...And when over the dark sea I shall be lifted by a chalice of fire, to that generation there will come the day of withered fruit...The face of the sun will be extinguished because of the great tempest. Then finally ornaments shall descend in heaps. There will be good gifts for one and all, as well as land, from the Great Spirit wherever shall come sailing, figuratively speaking, bringing the ornaments of which I have spoken, from your ancestors. Then the god will come to visit his little ones.” - The Book of Chilam Balam of Tizimin
Quite a lot of people will die because of their arrogance, when the these prophecies materialize. Christians will get their wish, and end up in Heaven, only they won’t realize it because they will no longer have a brain to think with. That’s because we think with our physical brain, and physical bodies don’t go to Heaven. The belief that they do was made up by the early Christian leaders and is not supported by any writing found in the book that they base their religion on. Nor is that belief supported by any kind of rational reasoning. It’s a made up lie that will prevent a lot of people from preparing for the events that are predicted to happen. Instead of preparing for their own survival, they will instead wait for a miraculous being that will never show up, which is another made up belief.
Another large group of people who will die during that time are the Jewish people, who will try to hold fast to their belief that they are the “Chosen Ones,” who will be protected by God. Their belief is based on their arrogance as well. Like their younger siblings, the Christians, they will do nothing to prepare for their own survival because of their belief that they are somehow superior to the rest of humanity. They really believe that God will protect them because of their superiority.
Yet another group that will surely die are the New Age religions that promote prayer as a fix all for everything. Instead of preparing for their survival, they are trying to make our problems go away with their unified prayer. It’s their belief that if enough people gang up on God with their prayers that God will decide not to destroy life on earth. What they don’t realize is that God isn’t going to destroy earth. God is merely warning us that natural disasters are going to make it extremely difficult to survive on earth for a little while.
Muslims that think Allah somehow protects them are in the same boat as the three groups just mentioned. They are actually in more trouble, because their prophet didn’t mention anything about living through a time of destruction. They have convinced their selves that there is another world that they get to go live in, much like Christians view of Heaven. It’s their arrogance that will bring about their own demise as well. Like Christians, Jews, and New Agers, they believe that they are the “right religion,” and should therefore be protected from harm by God.
The thing that they all are missing is that God is protecting us by telling us what to expect. The rest is up to us. If we are so stupid that we refuse to do anything for ourselves, then we will eliminate our genes from the future generations of people that will inhabit our planet. You can look at it as stupidity eliminating itself from the midst of humanity.
You can research the prophecies of the world that speak of the “end of time,” and you will begin to realize that all of the prophecies mention the same things. You can gain insight about the “signs of the time,” regarding when to expect the associated destruction. Quite a lot of people who have done so realize that we are rapidly approaching the said time. What you won’t find in any of the prophecies are the details for your survival. Instead, you will find descriptions of what you can expect, and as pointed out in this explanation, one of the things you will uncover includes an extended period of life without light. Even if you are intelligent enough to provide a shelter stocked with food and water that will sustain you for a few years, you won’t have a chance of survival because of the smoke and dust that will be in the air as a result of fires and volcanic eruptions. Your only real hope of survival will be to find a source of oxygen that will sustain itself, and then isolate yourself from the elements and from people that didn’t prepare for their own survival.
