WORDS from GOD as written by His Servant Elijah:

Elijah is my name; I am Spirit; I am One with Jehovah God and Lord Jesus Christ; I have existed on Planet Earth in human vessels known as Elijah, Elisha and John the Baptist; I now indwell James Reesor who
is known as "Tennessee Elijah."

I was sent by God to enter Earth at the conception of James in 1938. As the dominant Spirit in this human soul, my identity remained unknown to the flesh until it was revealed by God in 1974. A public proclamation was made in 1982 -- only to be disregarded by those who were meant
to hear and respond to prophetic words. Since that time, many letters
have been sent to religious leaders and others who could not discern
the significance of my presence among them.

In this year of 2003, we are nearing the time when I will use heavenly power to rejuvenate this man of flesh who was formed in sin, No longer will corrupting spirits be allowed to beguile him as my mission comes
to a finish. Like James, every person of flesh on this planet has sinned and must repent before redemption can take place. Even though carnal nature is vile and wicked continuously, I do not sin and will not be held accountable for the iniquities of this body that I now occupy. Many
have wondered about "the sins of Elijah" in recent days, yet it is
the "sins of James" that will be revealed as a lesson to be learned.

The sins of ancestors, the many fathers of many generations, were passed into this vessel that I now inhabit. I was sent into this human soul to be as a flickering Light in a darkened chamber, making possible a contrast between purity found in Heaven and the contamination brought about by earthly degeneration. Since the beginning, James was made able
to see, hear, touch, taste and smell, but was not given heavenly understanding; James was made able to think, speak, move and sense
my presence within -- yet was not able to distinguish between fleshly influence and Spiritual influence. My existence in this body caused feelings of uneasiness and timidity, because of sin at birth. Only in
these end of days will impressions coming through me from the
Father Creator penetrate the human consciousness of this sinful creature now under my influence.

As it was with Elijah of old who breathed life back into the dead son
of a widow, as it was with Elisha who desired to serve the king of Israel with the arrow of the Lord’s deliverance against Syria, and as it was with John the Baptist who fathered the Spiritual birth of Christ during water baptism, it will be for James who has sacrificed his flesh to serve as the one known as Tennessee Elijah.

Flesh has never been equal with Spirit, and will not be rewarded or separated according to weakness or strength; it is a soul, and it will
be souls made of spirits that will stand before God at the Great White Throne on Judgment Day. Therefore, think not that Elijah is a man
who has eaten forbidden fruit; think not that James is a Spirit who was heavenly sent to perform a task in this generation. As easily as I have entered, according to the purpose of God, I am made able to depart
this soul -- even though my earthly vessel lives on. For this is not a
great mystery to those who believe in the Holy Spirit, knowing that
many souls are inhabited and are made able to speak new words as revealed by the Holy One. It has been written:

"And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as
of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with
other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance."

Let it be known that Elijah is of God -- just as the Holy Spirit is of God. Let it be known that James is a vessel indwelled by Elijah and the Holy Spirit -- just as all children of God are One with Him and Elijah -- and just as He is One with them and they with Him. Lord Jesus Christ the Son is Jehovah God the Father in Spirit -- and Elijah is One within
these many who do the bidding of the Master. Let this Truth be
known to those with faith to believe.

The "sins of James" the Tennessean are not the "sins of Elijah" the Tishbite, Elisha the prophet, John the Baptist -- or Elijah the Spirit. Just as the events of Life caused Elijah of Gilead to seek escape from strife in times of weakness, bringing drought and famine to his homeland, later to raise his hand against the contemptible false prophets of Baal, and then to run like a coward when escaping the scorn of Jezebel, James
has been an instrument of God who has been used to show bravery and fear in his tumultuous solitude -- or display courage and discretion through words.

Who was it that told Noah to build an ark? Who were those doubters who rebelled against warnings and were drowned when waters came?
It was not an evil God that caused many to choose death rather than repent of sin; it was a loving God that chose an obedient man to build an ark, showing the way of deliverance. Mockery of Noah was the evidence of evil in that generation for those who were unwilling to build an ark
of their own -- just as mockery of Elijah is the evidence of evil in this generation for those who are unwilling to follow his example. Noah
was spurned and mocked when doing what his tormentors could not understand -- just as this prophet has been shunned, betrayed and taunted by fools who slander prudence.

"James is not Elijah or Noah," they say in ignorance, not knowing
the power of God or the ways of His angels. "James is only a man without wealth or military power, without success, fame or friends in
high places; he is only a flower artist without knowledge," they assume
as they compare him to themselves. "Tennessee Elijah is a loser who craves attention, an insane man who needs medication, a sinner who deceives us with his delusions, and a false prophet who does the will of Satan," they tell each other with arrogance, laughing at what they do not understand. "Is this not the man who was born in the home of poor parents?" scoffers question, believing that stories of Noah and the flood were proven to be only a myth -- according to reports by intellectual degenerates who favor the science of secularism?

On a cold winter night, Mary the mother of James slipped on ice while walking home with James the father -- and a birthing process began to take place. James Edward Peter Reesor was born in a humble dwelling place in Herbert, Canada, where he entered this dimension of Life as an infant. He was bundled in blankets and laid on the open metal door of a wood burning stove to keep from freezing while his parents and good friend Ruth rejoiced.

In the darkness of that cold night in 1938, there were no thoughts being given to the moment of conception -- when a man and woman had first begun to enjoy the gift of procreation. There was no conversation about past events or circumstances that made a unique pregnancy possible. There was no awareness of how God injected a spark of Life and the Spirit of Elijah into the womb of that woman -- instantaneously -- carefully forming the soul of an unborn child. There was no public celebration to commemorate the arrival of a prophet in that place
where three people witnessed the birth of a baby, not having seen
the embryo as it was growing slowly and silently until reaching
maturity beneath human skin.

On that day in November, far from Jerusalem, far from Rome and
New York, a newborn was crying as he was bathed. Though he cried until made able to suck at his mother’s breast, his disturbing noises
were forgiven him as he was given gentle care, nourishment and Love. What then could be said of this new baby who could not talk or walk? Had he broken some law or sinned in the eyes of God on that first day -- or is it the father, mother and friend who should be judged for what
was said and done during moments of sexual pleasure, the birthing
of a child and rejoicing after his birth?

At the time of this writing, many days have been numbered since
James was born; and now he has grown to be a man who remains
alive on Planet Earth where over six billion souls reside in 2003.
What formula will make possible the story of his birth? How many
will volunteer to spread the news of this Elijah mission?

Like every person who has inherited the sins of ancestors, the
flesh of James was corrupt by nature at birth -- and has never been capable of doing good in the same way as the Creator. It is only through repentance to Jesus and transformation by the Holy Spirit that a human soul can be made worthy of purity. As days came one after another, this Elijah vessel has experienced good and evil, having made right choices and wrong choices while learning how to deny desires of flesh. As it has been with James, sin is common for everyone until God is given complete honor and authority.

To sin or not to sin,
that is the question
all souls must ponder!

To see the unseen or to know the unknowable, that is the quest shared
in common. We have been given Holy Words as a guide, yet many fail
to understand what has been written by the prophets. Who is to be held accountable when souls miss the center of the mark, slip off the path leading to eternal destiny, choose to rebel against Truth by breaking the commandments of God? Was Moses not a man, too, who sinned and fell short of the glory of the Lord? Why then should people of this day be so inclined to cast stones at those who are less than prophets -- or less than the Master of Perfection?

The memory of a human Life is not written in stone to be shown to all who become curious. Only God has knowledge of thoughts, words and deeds that make fleshly experiences presentable for judgment. Only He knows the heart of those who remain creatures of sin -- and are unable to separate good from bad. So, then, what purpose is to be served by those who presume to do as God, pretending to know who is evil or
just, accusing them falsely who do good -- or praising them falsely who perform abominations. Have they not given credence to evil by calling it good and acceptable? Have they not condemned God by accusing Him of being powerless to overcome their sinful rebellion? What was once true is now thought to be a lie; and what was once good is now thought to be bad in the minds of many who do not understand the mysterious ways
of the Father Creator.

Like all sinners in this world where Satan has been given freedom to
do his evil, James has been tempted and deceived. He has been taught how to think and to make choices during his days in places where spiritual battles rage. Was it Elijah that caused him to be curious
about forbidden fruit offered when he was hungry or was it a demon? Did fleshly appetites dominate his consciousness as he restrained the inner voice from interfering with fleshly impulses? James had been told that tobacco is harmful and should not be ingested -- yet smoking cigars, cigarettes and pipes seemed harmless because he chose to never inhale. James had been told not to drink alcoholic beverages -- yet he became intoxicated more than once. James had been told that Love is good --
yet he often wondered how Love could be expressed without sexual interaction. James was told that honesty is better than deception --
yet he often failed to reveal his thoughts without tainting words to
alter reality, confusing those who listened during idle moments
of egomaniacal pride.

Because Satan has been given freedom to rule those who rule this world, James has sinned like Adam and Eve, like Moses and Judas, like Peter, Paul -- and all others of flesh who must be taught to suppress amoral inclinations. Only with knowledge and power from God will people be able to overcome evil thoughts, refuse to speak evil words and suppress urges to perform evil deeds.

So, though some came to discover the "sins of Elijah" in this place where words are expressed, we now know that it is the "sins of James" that matters. I will not be held accountable by God for the sins of James any more than I will be held accountable for the sins of Satan.

I am in James, but I am not James; I am Elijah.

Many skeptics on Planet Earth do not know how to identify me. They
do not believe it is possible for a Spirit from Heaven to exist inside a human body. For those who do not understand, explain to them that I am of God. The name “Elijah” means “God-Jehovah” -- which means “God is God.” So, just as Elijah the Tishbite was able to think, speak and perform according to the desire of God within him, Tennessee Elijah has been made able to do the same. So, now that this Truth has been revealed within these words, who are the cynics who will continue to dispute what every angel knows to be true?

Tell every person in every nation, the Holy Spirit has promised to come to give them understanding after they repent of sin and voluntarily accept the knowledge of Christ into their hearts. If Christians can believe in the Holy Spirit entering a soul, why is it not easy for the heathen to believe that the Spirit of Elijah can enter the body of James? Do people not agree that all things are possible with God? Do Christians not agree that this world is evil -- and is in dire need of salvation?

For those who wonder, James did not slay the false prophets of Baal; Elijah of Gilead performed that deed with God’s blessing. James has never killed anyone, but he has had murderous thoughts against enemies. James never had sex with Bathsheba after killing her husband Uriah as David did, but he has allowed lust to influence his emotions which led to masturbation, nakedness, fornication and adultery. James never betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver, but in years past he
has valued money more than God while in the pursuit of materialistic possessions. James stole candy and cakes as a child when hungry for sweets. He has coveted new cars and other possessions of neighbors, but does not scheme to steal. He once set high goals for selfish reasons -- and when business clients refused to pay for services rendered, James turned the other cheek and silently walked away. He has used credit unwisely and because of incompetentcy and unethical associations, escaped responsibility through bankruptcy. James borrowed money from friends -- and circumstances impeded his efforts to repay those debts. Because
of insincerity, exaggerations and falsification of information during past interactions between James and enemies posing as his friends, he has learned to keep silent for the sake of preserving personal tranquility.

For those who wonder, James is a man of flesh who still makes mistakes -- even though he has repented and strives to obediently follow the commandments of God. If people cannot find it in their hearts to
forgive James when he sins, why should people expect James or
God to forgive them when they are less than perfect?

For doubting inquisitors who can’t seem to envision the idea of a human body containing Elijah without assuming that James is only a man with psychological problems, tell them that "thoughts" formed into "words" of messages given in the name of Tennessee Elijah do not originate in a human brain, but flow from God through a soul chosen to do His will. James is but a conduit through which the Holy Spirit and Elijah have been sent to Earth as promised.

Until people understand
the Truth about James and Elijah,
they will not be able to understand themselves!

To quote Tennessee Elijah: "May all sinners on earth repent and be forgiven according to the will of Jehovah God!"

To quote James: "Quit acting like idiots and get smart before you destroy yourselves and this planet."

All people can decide for themselves what it is -- or who it is that they will believe as they struggle to decipher Truth from fiction. In the case of James and Elijah, two separate but congruent entities, there is mutual respect. May God in his wisdom teach nations how to apply lessons of this ‘supernatural enigma’ to circumstances of their Life experiences

As the public persona of James becomes more oblique, more detached and more debatable, now is a good time for Anonymous Volunteers to assume authority and responsibility. The many messages of Elijah are worthy of worldwide distribution and discussion.

Lost souls need to be brought back into
the knowledge of Christ before His return!
