Doug Boyd wrote a book about me, Mad Bear : Movement , Spirit, Healing, and the Sacred in the Life of a Native American Medicine Man, that you might want to read. Anyhow, back in the 50s and 60s I traveled all over the Western hemisphere as a merchant seaman, and made contacts that eventually led to this current Indian Unity Movement. I always wanted to write a book like this, comparing prophecies from all over the world.

"We ought to make a little trip there to Virginia Beach, to the Edgar Cayce people. I've read up on all those Cayce readings, , especially the prophecies. I've got copies of a lot of that The White Roots of Peace, stuff. And Nostradamus, too. Did you ever read up on , the prophecies of Nostradamus? What somebody ought The Tree of Peace to do someday pretty quick is go all across this country - the world, really - and make a study of all the New World Symbol of Freedom prophets, what they had to say. I bet a comparison of all their prophecies related to these next few decades The White Pine is a native American would be an amazing thing. You'd think someone symbol of powerful and timely ideas would jump at the chance to fund something like that. I about human relations and social order about the alignment of Human mean, that'd be worth something. But then there'd be Law with Spiritual Law and Natural many who wouldn't know how to use it.

His traditional elders asked Evan Pritchard to speak out about it. , "The specifics of the prophecy were that there would be fish dying in the waters because they would be poisoned by the water, which is happening. And it's said that the sun will look different. And because of the ionosphere and changes in the ozone, the sun does look different. And it's said that the trees, the maple trees, will begin to die from the top down. Now, they couldn't have known about acid rain, but that's how acid rain affects maple trees." , , , Source: Evan T. Pritchard - a descendant of the Micmaq people and the founder of The Center for Algonquin Culture. He is currently Professor of Native American History at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York.

They came at a time when the people were living a full and peaceful life on the North Eastern coast of North America. These prophets left the people with seven predictions of what the future would bring. , , , , Each of the prophecies was called a fire and each fire referred to a particular era of time that would come in the future. Thus, the teachings of the seven prophets are now called the "Seven Fires." , The first prophet said to the people, "In the time of the First Fire, the Anishinabe nation will rise up and follow the sacred shell of the Midewiwin Lodge. The Midewiwin Lodge will serve as a rallying point for the people and its traditional ways will be the source of much strength. The Sacred Megis will lead the way to the chosen ground of the Anishinabe. You are to look for a turtle-shaped island that is linked to the purification of the Earth. , You will find such an island at the beginning and end of your journey. There will be seven stopping places along the way. You will know the chosen ground has been reached when you come to a land where food grows on water. If you do not move you will be destroyed." , , The second prophet told the people, "You will know the Second Fire because at this time the nation will be camped by a large body of water. In this time the direction of the Sacred Shell will be lost. The Midewiwin will diminish in strength; a boy will be born to point the way back to the traditional ways. He will show the direction to the stepping stones to the future of the Anishinabe people. , The third prophet said to the people, "In the Third Fire the Anishinabe will find the path to their chosen ground; a land in the west to which they must move their families. This will be the land where food grows on water." , The Fourth Fire was originally given to the people by two prophets. They came as one. They told of the coming of the light-skinned race. , One of the prophets said, "You will know the future of our people by the face the light-skinned race wears. If they come wearing the face of brotherhood then there will come a time of wonderful change for generations to come. They will bring new knowledge and articles that can be joined with the knowledge of this country; in this way, two nations will join to make a mighty nation. This new nation will be joined by two more so that four will form the mightiest nation of all. You will know the face of the brotherhood if the light-skinned race comes carrying no weapons, if they come bearing only their knowledge and a hand shake." , The other prophet said, "Beware if the light-skinned race comes wearing the face of death. You must be careful because the face of brotherhood and the face of death look very much alike. If they come carrying a weapon, beware. If they come in suffering, they could fool you. Their hearts may be filled with greed for the riches of this land. If they are indeed your brothers, let them prove it. Do not accept them in total trust. You shall know that the face they wear is one of death if the rivers run with poison and the fish become unfit to eat. You shall know them by these many things." , The fifth prophet said, "In the time of the Fifth Fire there will come a time of great struggle that will grip the lives of all Native people. At the warning of this Fire there will come among the people one who holds a promise of great joy and salvation. If the people accept this promise of a new way and abandon the old teachings, then the struggle of the Fifth Fire will be with the people for many generations. The promise that comes will prove to be a false promise. All those who accept this promise will cause the near destruction of the people." , The prophet of the Sixth Fire said, "In the time of the Sixth Fire it will be evident that the promise of the fifth fire came in a false way. Those deceived by this promise will take their children away from the teachings of the Elders; Grandsons and Granddaughters will turn against the Elders. In this way, the Elders will lose their reason for living; they will lose their purpose in life. At this time a new sickness will come among the people. The balance of many people will be disturbed. The cup of life will almost be spilled. The cup of life will become the cup of grief." , At the time of these predictions, many people scoffed at the prophets. They then had medicines to keep away sickness. They were then healthy and happy as a people. These were the people who chose to stay behind in the great migration of the Anishinabe.

  • 1 Tribulation
    TRIBULATION: Living Through the End Times Rev. Lilli Nye May 23, 2004 A few weeks ago I stumbled across a news flash that the final installment of the “Left Behind” novel series was about to be published and had already sold 2 million copies prior to its release date. For those of you unfamiliar with the “Left Behind” phenomenon, it’s a techno-thriller series based upon the New Testament book of Revelation. The series outlines in vivid detail a particular Christian view of the end times (one that is not shared by many Christians, by the way). The books take the fantastic, mythological imagery in the book of Revelation and translate it into concrete terms and imagery from our time, with heavy doses of technology, conspiracy theory, and right-leaning politics. Just to give a sense of the gist of the series: The 12-book series kicks off with the Rapture, in which true believers in Jesus disappear into thin air because they have been, in a sense, supernaturally airlifted from earth in anticipation of the great Tribulation to come. Those left behind (hence the name of the series) must face seven years of global chaos before Jesus returns for the cosmic battle of Armageddon, the final battle between good and evil, and the final judgment of all souls. In the seven years of tribulation that the books cover, the world is ravaged by war, disaster, and plague, and is tyrannized by the rising Antichrist, who dominates the world from the position of Secretary-General of the United Nations.

  • Colin Mcallister Regnum Caelorum Terrestre: the Apocalyptic Vision of Lactantius May 2016
    Colin McAllister Regnum Caelorum Terrestre: The Apocalyptic Vision of Lactantius May 2016 Abstract: The writings of the early fourth-century Christian apologist L. Caecilius Firmianus Lactantius have been extensively studied by historians, classicists, philosophers and theologians. But his unique apocalyptic eschatology expounded in book VII of the Divinae Institutiones, his largest work, has been relatively neglected. This paper will distill Lactantius’s complex narrative and summarize his sources. In particular, I investigate his chiliasm and the nature of the intermediate state, as well as his portrayal of the Antichrist. I argue that his apocalypticism is not an indiscriminate synthesis of varying sources - as it often stated - but is essentially based on the Book of Revelation and other Patristic sources. +++++ The eminent expert on all things apocalyptic, Bernard McGinn, wrote: Even the students and admirers of Lactantius have not bestowed undue praise upon him. To Rene Pichon [who wrote in 1901 what is perhaps still the seminal work on Lactantius’ thought] ‘Lactantius is mediocre in the Latin sense of the word - and also a bit in the French sense’; to Vincenzo Loi [who studied Lactantius’ use of the Bible] ‘Lactantius is neither a philosophical or theological genius nor linguistic genius.’ Despite these uneven appraisals, the writings of the early fourth-century Christian apologist L. Caecilius Firmianus Lactantius [c. 250-325] hold, it seems, a little something for everyone.1 Political historians study Lactantius as an important historical witness to the crucial transitional period from the Great Persecution of Diocletian to the ascension of Constantine, and for insight into the career of the philosopher Porphyry.2 Classicists and 1 All dates are anno domini unless otherwise indicated.

  • Forty Years of Cultural Change Among the Inuit in Alaska, Canada and Greenland: Some Reflections MARIANNE STENBAEK’
    ARCTIC VOL. 40, NO. 4 (DECEMBER 1987) P. 300-309 Forty Years of Cultural Change among the Inuit in Alaska, Canada and Greenland: Some Reflections MARIANNE STENBAEK’ (Received 27 August 1987; accepted in revised form I October 1987) ABSTRACT. The peoples in the arctic regions have experienced unprecedented cultural change in the last 40 years. The Dene, Metis, Samis, Athapaskans, Inuit and other aboriginal peoplein these regions have all seen their traditionallifestyles altered dramatically with the increasedinflux of southern peoples, withtheir baggage of modemtechnology, bureaucracy and assortedeconomic/political/soial/cultural systems. This paper focuses on the Inuit regions of Alaska, northern Canada and Greenland, for the Inuit have experienced more cultural changes since 1945 than in any other concentrated time span before. Although the changes have often resulted in great human tragedies, such as suicide epidemics and alcoholism, many positive changes have also occurred, as shownby major events in the three Inuit regions examined, as well as the establishment of somecultural and educational institutions. The paper drawson interviews with contemporaryInuit leaders. It concludesthat the Inuitculture is now in the process of being re-affirmed and will indeed be of increasing worldwide importance as the Arctic emerges as a new international and transnational region. Key words: Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland, Inuit, cultural change RÉSUMÉ. Les peuples des régionsarctiques ont subi des mutationsculturelles sans prkcédentdepuis quarante ans. Les Dene, les Métis, les Samis, les Athapaskans, les Inuit et d’autres peuples aborigbnes de ces régions ont tous subi une modification spectaculaire de leurs modes de vie traditionnels devant l’afflux de gens du Suddébarqués avec leur bagage de techniques modernes, de bureaucratie et de systbmes économiques/politiques/sociaux/ culturels assortis.

  • Rev 21: 10, and in the Spirit the Angel Carried Me Away to a Great, High Mountain and Showed Me the Holy City Jerusalem Coming Down out of Heaven from God
    June 28, 2020 Rev. Jane Florence Title: Living a Dream or a Nightmare Text: Revelation 21 News flash: the world didn't end on Dec. 21, 2012. You've probably already figured that out for yourself. Maybe you remember all the warnings leading up to the end of 2012- the prophets and websites announced the end of the world. For years leading up to 2012, we were warned of an ancient Maya prophecy predicting the end of the world as their calendar signaled, or the end of the world due to a mysterious planet on a collision course with Earth for 2012 , or a reverse in Earth's rotation would cause all polarity on the planet to reverse. In spite of our best scientists, even NASA, telling people all these perditions lacked any scientific data, people still waited for the end of the world as we know it on Dec12, 2012. Okay, so it didn’t happen. Maybe those harbingers got the date reversed, was it a pre- apocalyptic dyslexia? Maybe it wasn’t 2012, but 2021! in which case our experience in 2020 might make sense. If we look back at ancient texts, people have been envisioning dramatic earth changes for ages. In John’s vision of Revelation, he too sees the end of the world- as we know it, but he does not see the destruction of the earth as modern predictions maintain. Listen with me to the 21st chapter in the Book of Revelation , the last book in the Christian scriptures: Rev 21: 10, And in the spirit the angel carried me away to a great, high mountain and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God.
