East of the Prophecy: the Sixth Trumpet Andrew the Prophet

Publisher Marketing: East is derived from the Greek root aurion which means "arisen." And both knowledge and truth have arisen from the East. For many of God's children have spread to the East. For as God promised to the forefathers, "I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie, I will give it to you and to your descendants. Your descendants will also be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south; and in you and in your descendants shall all the families of the earth be blessed." (Genesis 28:13-14) And many truths have been enlightened by the philosophies of the East. For philosophy is derived from the Latin roots phil which means "love" and sophia which means "wisdom and understanding." Thus philosophy is the love of wisdom and understanding. For the philosophers of the East have sought for wisdom and understanding. But the antithesis of wisdom and understanding is ignorance. And many Western philosophers have ignored the philosophies of the East. But "what you worship in ignorance, this I proclaim to you. 'The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He Himself gives to all people life and breath and all things; and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we also are His children.'" (Acts 17:23-28)
