Course 18: The Gate of Prophecy from God

Teacher

COURSE DESCRIPTION

In this course you will discover one of the most important foundations of faith, which is to know that God gives prophecy to humans.

Why is this fact so fundamental?

Prophecy from God, which He bestows upon chosen persons, is His connection to mankind. A person who excels in his service and closeness to God, after cleansing his intellect and heart from the follies and lies of the world, can become a fitting vessel to receive the assistance God wishes to give him to illuminate his path with a higher awareness.

Since God created the world with an intended plan, and it is impossible for a person on his own to know this plan, God's revealing it to mankind is a fundamental imperative. This is the concept of prophecy – a connection of God to mankind by revealing Himself and His ways, through granting knowledge of the Divine
