Not saying that I agree with this at all. Just saying that IMHO, GOD spoke through the old Prophets (check out Isaiah and Daniel) as well as John in the Book of Revelation about this very same happening.
Check these out just for fun. I received this the other day.
All are true. However, I do need to check out the verse listed in the Koran.
