I like this very much. Well said, anon. What do you think of [prophecy] given your statement? Seems like prophetic writing could be understood as the collective consciousness or HOLY SPIRIT (depending on your perspective) speaking through a conscious human vessel to its own [body] in the present, and when the body responds it alters their trajectory which impacts the future.
That said, I believe in God’s divine revelation of future events such as in Daniel or Revelation.
