Iran: "Iman Ali Prophesied a Tall Black man Will Rise to Power in the West Just Before the Return of the Mahdi"
ccording to the tradition, Imam Ali Ibn Abi-Talib (the prophet's cousin and son-in-law) prophesied that at the End of Times and just before the return of the Mahdi, the Ultimate Saviour, a "tall black man will assume the reins of government in the West."Commanding "the strongest army on earth," the new ruler in the West will carry "a clear sign" from the third imam, whose name was Hussein Ibn Ali. The tradition concludes: "Shiites should have no doubt that he is with us."

Why is it that these main stream religions have caused pain and suffering I.e. the crusades, etc.. Spreading the word of "Christ" and God.
What of beliefs of spiritual people who are peaceful and unviolent to those that believe with them or have their own beliefs.
Such as the Monks, very peaceful looking within themselves, uncaring of someone elses beliefs, but if I told a hard core christian that heaven and hell is fake I'd get a whole world of hate.

No one knows exactly yet. We are on the verge of a breakthrough, with all the puzzle pieces lying around. Some things are crystal clear, while other things still need time to make sense. But the time is coming when those who seek the truth will find all that has been prophesied coming to pass, and they will understand it all.

If prophecy was impossible to understand, then why is there a blessing promised for those who do?

Roman records of that day have been found, and they collaborate the biblical prophecy EXACTLY. Not only was this, but the exact day of the flood was prophesied, with many more examples of the precision of biblical prophecy.
