Prophet

A **Prophet**, also known as an **Oracle**, is an individual who has claimed to have been contacted by the supernatural or the divine, and to speak for them, serving as an intermediary with humanity, delivering this newfound knowledge from the supernatural entity to other people.

## Overview

It is believed that there were (more or less) 124,000 prophets in total throughout history. Other traditions place the number of prophets at 224,000. Some scholars hold that there are an even greater number in the history of mankind, and only God knows the true number. Holy books like the Bible and the Qur'an state that God has sent a prophet to every group of people throughout time, and that Muhammad is the last of the prophets, sent for the whole of humankind. The message of all the prophets is believed to be the same. The message that the prophet conveys is called a prophecy, which transports a message beyond mere pagan soothsaying, augury, divination, or forecasting, and often comprises issues of social justice.

All prophetic messengers are prophets (such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad) though not all prophets are prophetic messengers. The primary distinction is that a prophet is required to demonstrate God's law through his actions, character, and behavior without necessarily calling people to follow him, while a prophetic messenger is required to pronounce God's law (i.e. revelation) and call his people to submit and follow him. They speak of events to come, on instruction from Heaven and God. Archangels are tied to prophets, acting as their protectors when the need arises with each prophet having an archangel "tethered to them." Any presence of danger will cause intervention from his or her archangel.

It is also shown that almost all prophets of God would receive the Eyes of God from the Angel of the Lord. Those who are bestowed with the 'Eyes of God' are able to see the 'The Truth' of the world, which in this case is the Loagaeth where they are able to see the Speech of God or the Word of God that is etched onto creation itself. The Word of God allows them to behold the power behind the words of the Almighty which gives life, meaning, and purpose to everything and everyone. However, even the prophets cannot properly identify the meanings behind the Words and in the process are, in a sense, 'blinded' by their straightforward following of God's commands and guidance and not seeing the bigger picture. This is why prophets who possessed the Eyes of God needed spiritual guidance and aid from individuals like Khidr. For when they see the bigger picture, they can truly discern the meaning and functionality behind the Speech of God, and thus expose a segment of the Loagaeth, a gate of Heaven, with them in turn becoming the Logos, embodiments of the keys that open the locks to Heaven.
