[QUOTE="Michael's, post: 2666714, member: 884923"] There is tons of biblical prophecy that IS clear. Most is not cryptic at all. I'm not aware of any biblical foretelling (and by the way all prophecy is not foretelling, most is just telling, usually like it was a the time) that addresses poland in the 20tth century. Nostradamus did stuff like that and he was nothing at all biblical. Most of the prophets told about stuff that had to do with what was going on in their time, or soon to come. It's present day wanna be prophets that try to turn what Daniel said into future events still to come. Sure most of the OT prophets foretold the Messiah that was (in their days) still to come. Even now, Jesus has not returned from his return to see his Father (and ours) after the Crucifixion yet. Most prophecy has to do with messages from God to a person or nation that was pertinent to their (current) problems. Samuel prophesied to King Saul stuff that Saul needed to know, then. His stuff was not cryptic. He was there to explain what he meant to Saul (and DAvid) etc. A lot is clear. What isn't, you (and everyone else) can ask God. If you need to know, He'll tell you. If you don't' have the need to know, it probably won't be given to you either. All need to know about the Messiah. It's not that secret. [/QUOTE]
