3/10 Thoughts after reading Latter Prophets

(1)Christianity affirms that people don't know God, and indeed they cannot know the existence of it. Their faith in God comes from the long long history, from reading Hebrew Bible stories.

(2)Prophets, as is mentioned in these paragraphs, are the people who speak on behalf of God. They can predict the future because God had taught them so. That is to say, they know some of  God ( I doubted on how can they know God and how they affirm people about this fact).

(3)Prophets usually have trouble with those kings because prophets' prediction is usually bad for kings (kings do bad for people). Because prophets have faith in God, they dare to speak for social justice, rather than speak for the king, the elites, and the rich people. So, I appreciate this kind of  狐假虎威.
