Introduction

I have written this book to show that the Bible, the Golden book, can guide everyone to the truth. Many do not believe in the Bible, but Its pages contain the truth for all times. It is my hope that people will observe the Bible’s instructions and that they will find the truth and will gain the life to come. In this book we will look at prophecy. It tells us what has happened and what is going to happen. Prophecy describes what will happen future to its being written. It could even be future to our day, or it could describe what we are experiencing now. It is like getting a reading of future events. Those who tell us through the divine source, through Christ, are called prophets, these prophets tell us about many things happening now and in the future. This book is dedicated to my pastor,

Chapter One

Duties; the chastisement of our peace is upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. Some prophecies may be fulfilling even now. It is like getting a reading of events prior to their happening. Those used by God to reveal the future are called prophet. God is the one who gives the message and He himself tell us through the Golden book and in times through his prophets. If a prophet is legitimate, he/she must be 100 per cent correct; not 70 percent or 80 per cent or even 90 per cent. It must be one hundred per cent accurate. I am looking at the Golden book and God is 100 per cent with what He tells us through his prophets. It is like looking into the future. You can look at Isaiah 53: 5 and 6, that was many years before Christ died on the cross. You can understand what he is saying there, it reads as follows But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquity. Look at Isaiah 9.6 which reads, "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulders and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, mighty God, everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

The accuracy of Bible prophecy is a clear indicator that God is the author. It is also known that prophecy is not of any private interpretation. The people or men or women of God speak to us what God has revealed. He uses dreams, visions, or He may speak directly with the prophet, as He did with Moses. We must understand God is time not bound by time as we are. For Him, all time is now. So, when He speaks of the future, He’s not guessing; He simply describes what He sees.

The prophecies are written will in advance but done in past time. It could be like a picture and prophecy may not be in any chronological order but more critical than the order in which they are, There could be double references which some may have been filled for other things in other word one prophecy may cover two or three thing or more. What was not fulfilled in the first event Shirley will be fulfilled in the second event. Let’s look at Matthew 24 a double reference. If you have a red lettered bible of the Golden book look at what God speaks though out the whole chapter. The chapter is about direction of Jerusalem, and it also tell or describes events that will take place before, during and after the second coming of Christ our Lord. He did predict the destruction of Jerusalem with clarity see the accuracy in history about that event. In his prophecy he is coming back to earth. Some prophecy is conditional let’s look at prophecy in Jonah 3.4. "And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried and said, yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown, the reality was they the people repented, and the city was not destroyed. If they had not repented the city would have been destroyed. Remember not to put conditions on any prophecy because should the prophecy depend on us as humans it may be certainly be conditional. If it relates to God the father if cannot be conditional unless the condition is clearly show or stated.

God has his prophecy by communicating it to men of God and women of God. They can come though dreams and or visions. Look at Numbers 12.6 reads "And he said, hear now my words, if there be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known unto him in a vision and will speak unto him in a dream. Remember Josephs dream and his brothers hated him more the dream in which did not yet take its place tell years later. The dream for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, to my sheaf arose, and also stood upright, and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. Genesis 37, 5 and-7. He was sold by his brothers and they told their father a false story of what happened to him Joseph. Then he became a leader in Egypt. Then with the lack of food in the father country the brothers had to go to Egypt for food, so they journeyed there. Most prophetical dreams occurred while the person or prophet was in a state of unconscious sleep.

The visions come while the person or prophet is conscious or awake.

This could also be in the spirit of prayer. The last book
