Which is not to say that he did not actually see some very real future events. But the Bible clearly warns against these forms of divination. Which is why, back when he was doing these things, he had to be very careful to hide his methods as the "Suffer not a witch to live" rule was still very much in affect. His method is very clearly described for us in one of his quatrains: Sitting alone at night in secret study; it is placed on the brass tripod. A slight flame comes out of the emptiness and makes successful that which should not be believed in vain Scrying, which is commonly practiced by witches, was his method of predicting: The term scrying, deriving from the English descry--"to make out dimly" or "to reveal"--denotes an ancient art of clairvoyance: concentrating on an object until visions appear. Scrying has been practiced by magicians and Witches through the ages. Among the purposes of scrying are predictions of the future, answers to questions, solutions to problems, help in finding lost objects, and help in tracking down criminals.The object on which to concentrate is usually a shiny, smooth surface that makes a good speculum, such as the crystal ball used by Gypsy fortune-tellers or the still water of a lake or pond into which many early scryers gazed. Some of the most frequently used objects are mirrors, polished stones or metals, and bowls of liquid. Ink, blood, and other dark liquids were used by the Egyptians for centuries. Bowls of water were used by Nostradamus "The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination. But as for you, the LORD your God has not permitted you to do so. The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers. You must listen to him." ~Deuteronomy 18:14-15 " 'Do not eat any meat with the blood still in it. " 'Do not practice divination or sorcery." ~Leviticus 19:26 "When you enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead." ~Deuteronomy 18:9-11 "Their visions are false and their divinations a lie. They say, "The LORD declares," when the LORD has not sent them; yet they expect their words to be fulfilled." ~Ezekiel 13:6 There are many more warnings from the Lord. Just because these methods often will show the diviner the future, it does not mean we are to engage in this activity as Christians, or support, or look to those who do. Unless you want The Lord God to consider you among them when he returns. "The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God." ~Galatians 5:19-21 In Deuteronomy, divination is paired with sorcery and witchcraft. Not good. So now you know the source of the Nostradamus visions, consider whether you wish to entertain them, possible invite realted spirits who know you are willing to accept their message. Scared yet? Ask for the Lord to cleanse you of all unrighteousness just in case there are any lingering spirits wishing to show you things from the future. I will do the same since I came here and read one of his prophecies and actually thought it was interesting. But interesting or not, this is the wrong spirit and not for us to touch, mess with, consider, ponder or otherwise listen to.

In the future, consider possible baby Christians who think we may condone his methods, which are really dangerous...not a laughing matter I'm afriad. ~7Seven
