God's Plan?

The prophecy passed down through the Hopi people is much broader than the perspective of the Bible, which was recorded through the Jewish people (from the creation of mankind in Genesis to the destruction and restoration of mankind in Revelation). It provides a perspective that allows us to envision the creation, destruction, and restoration of mankind through purification, that is, a new heaven and a new earth. The legends passed down through the Hopi people who lived in the harsh wilderness of Arizona, USA, and the contents inscribed on two stone tablets are truly amazing.

The Bible states that the first destruction of mankind was caused by the great flood, Noah's flood (around 2800 BC). However, according to the oral tradition of the Hopi ancestors, mankind's and the earth's great upheavals began when humans lost harmony with the laws of nature, the harmony with the so-called supreme being.

• First, the destruction of mankind was due to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. Based on this, it can be assumed that one continent split into the many continents we have today.
• Second, the destruction of mankind was due to glaciers.

We are now living in the "Quaternary Period of the Cenozoic Era." This period began roughly 2 million years ago and involved 4-5 repetitions of glacial periods, with glaciers developing primarily in the high-latitude regions of the earth, and interglacial periods with relatively warmer temperatures. The last glacial period lasted until about 13,000 years ago. Therefore, the current era after the last glacial period is called the post-glacial period.

• Third, the destruction of mankind was due to Noah's flood, as mentioned in the Bible.
• Fourth, the era we are living in now, and we are heading towards the destruction of mankind like before. The era of purification will follow, and there will be three tremors beforehand.

The first tremor is signaled by tying bugs to ribbons and releasing them into the sky. This is interpreted as the first World War, when airplanes were first used. The second tremor occurs when a person appears who uses the Hopi's symbol of earth migration. However, this symbol is identical to the symbol of the Nazis. This interprets the second tremor as the second World War that occurred with the rise of Hitler. The signal for the third tremor is being covered in "red." This has not happened yet.

However, before this third tremor occurs, five omens will occur, heralding the tremor. "Trees will die," "Mankind will build houses in the sky," "Cold places will become warm and warm places will become cold," "Land will sink into the sea and land will rise from the sea," and "The blue star Kachina will appear."

It is believed that four out of these five have already been realized. The first is interpreted as the destruction of forests due to urban development and pollution. The second refers to the construction of space stations. The third is seen as climate change due to global warming. The fourth is interpreted as the discovery of ancient city ruins that had sunk beneath the sea due to tidal waves and tsunamis.

The fifth, the "Kachina" that will appear, is a being like a messenger in Hopi mythology, who governs nature and humans and operates between humans and the spirit world. The Hopi believe that this blue star is normally far away and cannot be seen, but it will become visible when the time comes.

Some claim that the red that appears after the third tremor refers to the appearance of a red star or a red sky. Some believe that this might involve a collision between the Earth and a planet. Others interpret it as a red sky due to the detonation of shells, that is, the outbreak of World War III.

According to the Hopi prophecy, this marks the end of the fourth era of mankind, our current time. However, this is not a complete destruction of mankind, but a transition to a new world. It is the beginning of the fifth era that the Hopi speak of. This fifth era is said to be a peaceful and harmonious world.

God judged mankind who was deeply corrupt through nature, and each time, He preserved mankind by leaving behind people who continued the lineage of mankind on Earth. We can see the restoration of the earth, nature, and mankind through the process of purification, as the Hopi say, finally taking place. At that time, people will lay down their weapons, not fight, and maintain peace. This can be interpreted as the new heaven and new earth spoken of in Revelation, so the oral tradition passed down through the Hopi people is truly amazing and incredible, even though they do not have writing because they did not have a written language.

In the future, after the Bible was completed, by studying the history and culture of ancient Koreans and their relationship with God, we can expand the current perspective of the Bible by connecting the Cheonbugyeong, the Arirang sung by the Cherokee people (amazing grace version), and the Hopi prophecy.

To do this, it is necessary to study geology, climatology, and astronomy to understand the splitting of continental plates caused by great earthquakes, the glacial age assumed to be caused by planetary collisions with Earth, and the great flood. By studying the history and culture of ancient Koreans, understanding their way of life, and knowing their relationship with American Indians, we can uncover a broader relationship with God than the Bible passed down through the Jews.

This great project will likely have to be continued through generations of the ChamGil family. If it is a mission given by the Lord, He will give us discernment and wisdom, so it is entirely possible. Then, we will be able to understand why God guides the Korean people, separate from the Jewish people, to influence nations with good influence.

Afterword

The protagonist, who was an American Indian, realized that "Hopi" means tiger family when a child suddenly grabbed his clothes and called him Hopi.

He emphasized how important it is to know one's roots and the identity of one's people. In this regard, the Hopi prophecy reveals a correlation between the Hopi people and the ancient Koreans who lived in the Korean Peninsula, worshipping tigers.

Therefore, we must keep in mind that the Korean people could be a people chosen by God, no less than the Israelites.
