Until the time it comes true, a prophecy remains in the domain of probabilities. It is not because a prophet has received the vision of an event that it must necessarily come true.
Human beings can change the course of their destiny at any moment of their life. What a prophet perceives in his visions is but one of the many choices of life that weaves the thread of our destiny, be it an individual, a group or a whole society. If the individual or group remains on the same path, the prophecy will come true. If the path changes, it will not come true..
It is much more difficult to change the thought forms of a group or a society, and therefore there was every chance that prophecies concerning major or planetary events such as the Napoleonian wars or World War II would come true and they did eventually.
By itself, a prophecy has no power over the event it predicts. Therefore, even though it may be a correct interpretation, the prophecies in this section amy or may not come true, for it is the divine birthright of every individual to remain in total control of his destiny.
