People have always questioned things that are unexplainable by the rules and boundaries of science. Like for example, the powers and capabilities of the psychic realm, and that of a psychic, because it is a phenomena outside the reasoning of both science and logic. But then, do you ever wonder why people have a different view when we mention the concept of prophets and prophecies?
To think of it, a psychic and prophet, are somewhat similar, but then, how people accept the concept differs. You may ask, what is the difference then between a psychic and a prophet?
Well, they are alike in most parts, but then, society does not put them in the same level, since prophets tend to be more favored by people compared to psychics. So is there really a difference between a psychic and a prophet?
To start, let us define what a psychic is. Psychics refer to persons who have an ability to perceive information hidden from the normal senses through their extrasensory perception, or what is known as ESP. Persons who possess special gifts like talents of divination, fortune telling, clairvoyant abilities, visions, predictions, and the like, are known to be psychic.
Prophets on the other hand, have been existing throughout history, and they more commonly play a major role in religion. Although by definition, a prophet is a person who has been contacted by, or has encountered, the supernatural or the divine. They serve as an intermediary with humanity, delivering this new found knowledge from the supernatural entity, to other humans. The message that the prophet conveys is called a prophecy.
Basically speaking, the "function" of a psychic and a prophet are somewhat similar -- that is to help humanity. Psychics do this through psychic readings, whereas prophets do this via their prophecies. Aside from this, they both also have the gift of mediumship that allows them to communicate with those in other dimensions (e.g. psychics can communicate with spirits who have passed on, spirit guides, and guardian angels, and prophets communicate with divine beings).
Another fact is, both individuals can give us a better understanding of things in general -- about the past, present, and the future. A psychic does this through readings, while a prophet does this through prophecies.
There may be a lot of similarities between prophets and psychics, yet people still tend to question more the psychic side. Why? Well, because people have been accustomed that prophets are of divine origin, and being divine will follow that it is on the question of religion. These prophecies are blessings for many. People generally have high respects for religion, whatever views it may have, compare to the supernatural ways. However, this does not say though that psychic gifts are not blessings. Psychic gifts are as real as prophecies. In fact, everyone has an innate psychic side, and it is even the inborn psychic gift within these prophets that give them their extraordinary abilities. - 30438
