"Hello, my friends! As most people began a New Year with hopeful hearts, others of this world may be filled with despair. It is imperative that Christians not forsake their duty to the calling of the Master during these critical times.

We have seen the ravages of nature coming against nations. We know that
suffering could have been avoided if only ignorant people had bowed down to God in
humble repentance. There was ample warning and, still, they refused to acknowledge
Truth as it was revealed.

It is now within our prerogative to speak of other coming events. If nations fail to hear once again, this planet will be severely shaken. In my capacity as a 'flower artist,' I now call upon all world leaders to cooperate as we focus Loving attention upon children. For the purpose of testing faith once again, I will ask that an international effort be made under the auspices of the United Nations which will allow for a massive Flower Art Celebration. The proposed theme for these public art exhibits in every nation needs to be 'Truth, Love & Beauty.' People of all ages are encouraged to participate.

As a loyal servant of the Father Creator, Lord Jesus Christ, God of Israel and the Universe, special letters need to be sent through proper diplomatic channels as inspired by the Master, and as written by the hands of Anonymous Volunteers. If the letters are received and then acknowledged in good faith, nations will see the beginning of true peace. If letters are received and ignored, nations will see war!

The time is short -- and this struggle against evil must be continued. We must all do what
we can to duplicate and distribute these messages. Spiritual strength will be multiplied
many times over if we do not forsake those who need the hope we offer.

God is saying to me at this time: Hear me, my children, you are the pride of my creation. My joy is found in you, and I am your God. Heed the warnings, and the
Holy promises as the day draws closer for reunion. Keep the faith, and be free
from heartache as the end is soon to come.

In your silence, and in the privacy of your room, pray for heavenly guidance in all things. If you are willing, tell God how sorry you are, knowing evil people have made Him unhappy.
He grieves because of the wrong choices lost souls continue to make.

My loyal work for the Master will not stop until I am gone -- yet it will be limited if poverty prevents me from reaching others. If I fail to receive sufficient encouragement, I will change my way of communicating. I will, once again, send messages anonymously as I have been doing since1982. There will be no request for fees to pay expenses -- and address for friends and enemies to ignore or ponder.

If evidence cannot be found to convince a few followers of Christ that Truth flows through me, then call me a false prophet if that is what you think I am -- and pray that I will be delivered from sin! While you are at it, maybe you need a prayer, too?"

Effective Date of Registration: JAN 30, 1998:

"People of Earth, how much time remains before this way of Life is abruptly halted for every person in every nation? Like others, you have become accustomed to a daily routine. Your way of Life is a habit that slowly evolved since birth. You are unable to make abrupt changes in the way you think or behave. Your personal human will power is not capable of altering your lifestyle without Divine help.

On this day, providing you agree and understand why a God-change in your mind, heart, and Life is necessary, the key for unlocking the door to salvation is found in prayer. With complete and sincere reverence, simply say: Lord Jesus Christ, Father Creator and sustainer of the universe, I repent of my ignorance and will strive from this day forward to follow your desires for my Life. Please have mercy on me -- and
forgive me my daily mistakes. Amen.

If you have spoken these words, you were heard in the Spirit realm of God. And according to your faith, you have been set free from bondage. The past has died and you have become a new creature. For the rest of your Life, proclaim the good news: Planet Earth is my Church and Life is my religion! From this moment on, you will be able to face every opportunity or event from a new perspective. You will marvel at how every experience seems so different. Those things that you once loved, you will now hate; and those things that you once hated, you will now Love. Instead of confusion and fear, your Life will be filled with 'Truth' and unnatural confidence. Whether you are male or female, young or old, rich or poor here on Earth, rewards are shared equally by every child of God in Heaven.

In these coming days, you will be a witness to terrible tragedies. Your faith will be shaken when you see the sorrow of those who rebel against the Maker of souls. Do not be overcome with despair as the Father Creator must chastise His disobedient children. Even so, there will be no pain more than can be tolerated -- or ignorance more than can be forgiven by Him.

Now is your time to seek new compatible companions, learning how to fill remaining days with meaningful contentment. As changes are made, do not offend those who choose to
stay in opposition to you. It is better to turn away from confrontation.

Let Life be a celebration filled with sweet nectar, nourishing food, happy music and honest conversation to be shared by all God’s people; let death be a day of victory as filthy rags are tossed aside -- allowing good souls to take flight.

Yes, this battle between good and evil will soon come to an end for every person in every nation. There will be no need for military forces, police, courts or prisons, because every captive will be set free. As promised -- war will be no more!"

"Dear friends: Because I send my words out to you in English and translations to other languages are required in order to reach all nations, please realize that connotations of many terms in common usage make communicating messages -- which can easily be taken out of context -- a difficult process. Please keep this in mind as you read.

Even though accurate verbal/written expressions are not always possible between people, God is a mind reader and that gives Him a definite advantage. He knows our every thought, even though our languages are vague or imperfect.

When we repent of our self-willed rebellion against His rules, we gain an instantaneous ability to understand others more than we ever did before. Family members, enemies or friends who happen to come into our Spiritual realm are susceptible to unique powers of discernment. God helps us to see through secret thoughts or veiled deceptions. Even though we may be miles away, schemes, dreams or dishonorable intentions can be made known to us by our Master. If you are presently caught up in an unpleasant relationship or some other dilemma, God can lead through thoughts, showing us the proper solution to tough problems. Normal human logic is seldom sufficient. Most of us do not have the wisdom or strength to force corrective changes. We must depend on God for His inspired mediation if compatible relationships are going to be formed -- and lovingly maintained.

If you are not a true Christian or regular reader of these messages, you have absolutely no idea of what I am talking about. I don’t care if you are a self-professed atheist, a conventional unbeliever, a pragmatic soothsayer or a bona fide member of every religious sect in the world, the only way to understand God is through Truth!

Though Christians grow weary of cruel intellectual arrogance from others who engage in common insults while contrary opinions are being enthusiastically expressed, we will suffer
in silence a little longer, praying that every ignorant, rebellious soul will learn how to set their crooked path straight, before it’s too late.

A few of you have been receiving these crazy messages from someone who cares -- and maybe you just laugh. While God was listening, you mocked religious freaks and quickly dismissed these messages from your mind. If I were you, I would get humble and honest
real fast -- unless you believe yourself to be too smart to live with God and His friends!

Speaking for myself, it should be easy to grasp the meaning of these words. I see no reason for doubt or confusion. Obviously, the mysteries of Heaven are being revealed, but only a few of those who are set in their ways have chosen to embrace this messenger and the messages I bring. May God, have mercy on those who reject me!"

"Do we really care about children? Does anyone recall the early days of Elvis when
his music was shocking the cultural establishment? Do some of you see the impact Marilyn Monroe or a Demi Moore can have on healthy men? Through the years, we have seen celebrities like the rebel James Dean, the irreverent Beatles -- or the vulgar hard rock musicians -- setting trends for energetic American teenagers. Have we noticed, as America goes, the world is soon to follow? Mickey Mouse and McDonald’s can be found everywhere. The question in mature adult minds should be: What are we teaching kids? Well, take a look around! Money and sex are the two things kids crave most. They have dreams about being rich -- and if possible, they would be having sex 24-hours-a-day!

Money can buy the best clothes, a neat car or truck, all kinds of hi-tech sound and computer stuff, lots of pizza and party trips. Sex can give them exciting feelings, making them popular with their friends, letting them think they are grownup -- and give them a sense of freedom. For too many young people, Mom, Dad, school teachers, religious leaders or the government have nothing better to offer. Choices are then made: (1) Money (2) Sex (3) Cigarettes (4) Beer (5) Pot (6) Drugs (7) Late Nights (8) No School (9) No Job If they get lucky and don’t get sick, pregnant or arrested, they might win the lottery, get to be a sports hero or a movie star. Don’t all of these lifestyle options for kids make us proud of America?

Idealistically, all people of any age now living on this planet, deserves to be healthy, wealthy, happy and treated with respect. Unfortunately, a wonderful lifestyle does not exist for most of us who strive to survive. Realistically, before anyone can successfully solve the struggle troubles of the young, we need to attack the-lack-of-facts among the old. Meanwhile, tell kids that our monetary system is in trouble. If it crumbles, most things they like to buy will be worthless in a world where water, food and safety are nearly nonexistent. Tell them, if they’ll listen: Sex is fantastic and a beautiful experience designed by God for procreation
of Life. Yes, it can be a thrill while happening, but there is more to the story.

Sex is the biological way a merging of souls can happen!

In other words, before we do it, we need to make sure the spiritual and biological condition of our mate is pure enough to avoid contamination. When souls merge, disease and mental attitudes merge; we become like One person in the way we think -- and in the way we live Life. Maybe children can be taught why fornication and adultery is for fools?"

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: THE VATICAN CITY CHURCH OF GOD? In central Rome at Castel Gandolfo and around the world, the Holy See, being the seat of the Catholic Church, has been nurtured by Peter’s Pence. The Pope and his Vatican staff experience the highest lifestyle standard of all religious leaders on this planet. In contrast, our Father Creator God who came to Earth during a brief visit in the form of Lord Jesus Christ, demonstrated little desire for creature comforts or excess wealth to sustain Himself in luxurious splendor.

The Pope is the spiritual head of about 18% of the world’s population found mostly in Brazil, Mexico, Italy, the USA and the Philippines. The other 82% of the world's populace are kept informed about the Pope’s activities by the international media who portrays the Roman Catholic hierarchy as though the priesthood epitomizes religiosity.

The Pope has supreme executive, legislative and judicial powers, and occupies his position for Life in Vatican City. A two-thirds majority of the 120 member College of Cardinals vote for the candidate who enjoys the position of Supreme Pontiff. Administration by the Pontifical Commission in conjunction with the Roman Curia makes a worldwide network with diplomatic relations possible. Supposedly, the Vatican maintains a neutral stance in world affairs and has observer status in many international organizations.

Billy or Franklin Graham, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, Paul Crouch, Tennessee Elijah and thousands of other servants of God do not participate in the Roman Catholic political or economic endeavors. The spiritual Body of Christ does not enjoy the same worldwide honor as the physical body of Saint Peter that made the Church of Constantine -- now Saint Peter’s Basilica and Square -- so special to those who isolate themselves from the unity desired by their brothers and sisters in the Lord.

How many hospitals, dispensaries, leprosariums, homes for the sick, the aged and orphans, publishing or broadcast media, educational institutions, spiritual sanctuaries, art treasures
or monetary resources would the worldwide Vatican City Church of God have if all Christian organizations came together in legal unification? Will we ever know?

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: HANNITY & COLMES: FOX NEWS! On Monday evening, December 3, 2001, near the end of the FOX Hannity & Colmes interview with New York’s
Al Sharpton, Al was asked: “Do you think Yassar Arafat is a terrorist?” Mr. Sharpton responded with -- “I can’t say that he is a terrorist! You could say that about Sharon.
Is Sharon a terrorist? Is Elijah a terrorist?”

Why did Al Sharpton decide to include me in his dialogue? To answer the question he asked Hannity & Colmes: YES! ELIJAH IS A TERRORIST! But my only enemy is Satan -- and I terrorize his evil empire every chance I get! Unlike Arafat or Sharon, it is my custom
to use Truth and Love bombs. Maybe Al’s comment was a response to a message board posting of mine -- “Sharpton’s at it again by AOL member SWORDofJUSTICE,” (I've suspected it might have been Al or one of his friends?) I had written: Al Sharpton does not want to be president! Al wants to get publicity and build a Jesse Jackson type organization. Martin Luther King set the standard -- and now followers are just doing their patriotic duty.

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: RASCAL DASCHLE! Demoncrat Senator Tom Daschle
of South Dakota is proving to be a silver-tongued, honey-coated, slippery-footed, weasel-like politician who cares more about his presidential aspirations than the fledgling economy of the nation he purportedly serves. Where do his talking-points relative to the stimulus package come from? Have the ghosts of pre-depression 1929 come to plague us once again in the form of watered-down supply-side initiatives through this maverick who seems to have lost his patriotism?

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: TENNESSEE ELIJAH & THE PSYCHOLOGIST!
PSYCHOLOGIST: Welcome to my office, Elijah. Would you care to relax on the sofa --
or sit in the chair?
ELIJAH: Greetings, master of nonsensical hyperbole. I think I will just stand over here next
to the window in case I get the urge to jump.
PSYCHOLOGIST: Suit yourself. I only want you to feel good about yourself.
ELIJAH: Why are you wearing that silly scarf around your neck?
PSYCHOLOGIST: This scarf keeps me warm. I have a slight cold.
ELIJAH: Why don't you just turn up the heat?
PSYCHOLOGIST: I try to conserve energy. Waste not, want not.
ELIJAH: To each his own. But why do you wear a silly scarf with all of those weird colored green dots with yellow stripes?
PSYCHOLOGIST: I'm sentimental. It was a gift.
ELIJAH: From a patient?
PSYCHOLOGIST: Yes. It was handmade just for me.
ELIJAH: Does your patient have psychological problems?
PSYCHOLOGIST: Of course. All of my patients have psychological problems. Isn’t that why you are here?
ELIJAH: No, Maam. My reason for coming was to see if you could explain why AOL members have so much trouble understanding a prophet of God.
PSYCHOLOGIST: Are you a prophet of God?
ELIJAH: Well, that’s how I try to identify myself for idiots who think I'm crazy.
PSYCHOLOGIST: Why?
ELIJAH: Why not? If I told idiots that I am the incarnated biblical Elijah who was sent by God to test the faith of the world -- and that I was trying to unite families before Jesus comes to catch away loyal souls, they wouldn’t understand. Idiots think stupidity is sacred. Idiots do
not hesitate to call me insane -- because I do not fit into their limited view of reality.
PSYCHOLOGIST: How does that make you feel?
ELIJAH: Disappointed in people -- and frustrated.
PSYCHOLOGIST: Do you think you are insane?
ELIJAH: Actually, the word “insane” needs to be defined from my perspective before I can appease antagonists by answering. To me, to be “insane” is to be abnormal. In this world, being “abnormal” is “normal” for most people -- and so, obviously, I think that most people are "insane" -- even though they accept themselves as “sane.” Certain forms of “insanity” can result from chemical imbalances within the biological system -- which does not allow for healthy bodily functions in thought or movement. Also, “insanity” can be the result of demonic influences -- which causes inner conflicts between a soul and body. Bad “ideas” can distort reality and cause people to do irrational, "abnormal" things. In spite of your psychological terms -- which seem so scientific, at the very core of all people is a “soul” -- dominated by either good or bad spirits. The brain is only a conduit through which spiritual forces from a soul can be manifested in this materialistic dimension of Life. Each person, therefore, is subservient to either God or Satan. In my case, I am subservient to God -- and this makes my thoughts and behavior very “abnormal” in a world where many people are subservient to Satan. So, when I am speaking Truth in this place where deception is dominant, it seems like “insanity” to those who do not understand true reality.
PSYCHOLOGIST: So, you admit to being insane?
ELIJAH: Of course! But I am insane only on Planet Earth. Even though I have freedom of choice, I will not choose your "normal” way of thinking just to conform myself to evil idiots.
PSYCHOLOGIST: Do you think I am an idiot?
ELIJAH: What do you think?
PSYCHOLOGIST: I think I am intelligent.
ELIJAH: What “normal” earthly thought process allowed you to reach that conclusion?

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: THE ELIJAH PHENOMENON! The Elijah Mission is making progress! Tennessee Elijah is finding converts worldwide! Those rare, saved and redeemed souls, known as Anonymous Volunteers -- are duplicating and spreading the good words of Elijah among their families and friends! They are distributing his controversial messages to millions of sinners. We welcome the “New York Elijah” to this growing family. Even though we lost the Alabama Elijah and Iowa Elijah to a new religious sect from Taiwan -- which has reportedly been formed by descendants of Chiang Kai-shek after the grand Kuomintang was expelled by the communists under Mao -- the Nicaragua Elijah, Iraq Elijah, North Dakota Elijah, California Elijah and Harare Elijah from Zimbabwe have taken up the slack. Before
the end of 2007, it is estimated that we will have thousands of “Elijah” clones and millions of Elijah Anonymous Volunteers in every nation! This is wonderful news for people who Love Jesus -- and who are getting ready for His miraculous return!

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: USAMA & ELIJAH & VIDEOS & GOD! Reality is so revealing! Somewhere we have an invisible God who makes His presence known to people in many mysterious ways. In Tennessee we have a flower artist prophet of God who has tried unsuccessfully to deliver his inspired messages to the world for years. Then along comes Usama who worships a "god" who he thinks helped him destroy the WTC towers, taking the lives of innocent people. Somewhere in this mix of God, Elijah and Usama, the media takes note -- and starts sending out BIG BAD NEWS! Bravo! Because the public has an appetite for death and destruction, Usama is made out to be our hero villain! Children can now learn all about terrorism, the Islamic radical religion, fear of foreigners, hate and war! Empty minds are being filled with negative ideas and images -- and Usama has become famous! Just look at how many television and radio shows are covering this subject? Just look at how many books will be written about this horrible saga? Just look at how many movies will tell the stories about death and destruction and then ask yourself -- What will all of the publicity do to turn wicked people back to the God of Elijah before Armageddon?

Elijah has done four 2-hour videos that under a thousand people have seen. Elijah is a peace-loving man, and so his videos are ignored by the media. Elijah has written several manuscripts with messages from God that have not been published yet. Elijah is rejected by publishers who think only a crazy person would claim to speak for God -- so his manuscripts are rejected. The media has no time for Elijah!

It takes murder and bombs to make the news!

Words of Truth, Love and Beauty have no relevancy on this planet where iniquity abounds? Satan is using the “Usama’s” of this world to suppress respect for Jesus?

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: DO NATIONS HONOR THE "god" OF USAMA OR THE GOD OF ELIJAH? Which God has the power to restore the WTC towers, bring the dead back to Life or send Usama to his eternal reward? Which God has the power to stop further attacks by terrorists who scheme to destroy America? Which God do people turn to when poverty
or sickness brings pain and sorrow into their lives? Usama believes his “god” helped him destroy lives and property. What kind of “god” does Usama worship? What kind of man would believe in a “god” who would inspire terrorists to instigate anguish in this world? Did Elijah's God make the tragedy in New York happen or did He just let it happen because of sin? Do Christians blame “evil people” or do we blame God? Does anyone really want answers to these tough questions or do we just continue to rely on our own strength, our own intelligence, our own human way of doing things -- or do we just believe what we are told in the BIG BAD NEWS? How bad will it have to get before humanity finally bows down with humble faces, begging God for help? If we ever see an act of repentance happen anywhere in the world, it will be Elijah’s God responding! Usama’s “god” will be running scared like a coward. Satan has fooled Usama into thinking that he is God. Satan has fooled ol' Usama into thinking Hell is Paradise. Elijah’s God will make Himself known before the end of 2007! The Dividing Line between good and evil will be made clear -- very, very clear! Let nations choose their sides, choosing to stand with either God or with Satan! Just in case the media hasn't told you, Tennessee Elijah stands with Lord Jesus Christ, the One and only God! Quote me the next time a natural disaster makes the news!

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: MAKING AMERICA BETTER! People need to express new ideas on how we can make America better. Let’s all start today! Let’s decide to be honest, smart, civilized, creative and productive! Let's cleanse ourselves of troublemakers!

Let's rid the American government
of anti-Christian, liberal Demoncrats!

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: AMERICANISM DEFINED! A nation conceived by the Maker of all souls under the laws of universal reality, dedicated to the principles inherent
in the Life of Christ, sustained by the power of Truth, Love and Beauty -- for the purpose of nurturing faith, harmony, happiness, prosperity and freedom for
every member of every family.

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: AMERICAN ASSURANCE! We need a national association formed by the people for the people. For all intents and purposes, funds will be collected, invested and dispersed to guarantee each citizen equal benefits that provide the three primary requirements of Life: (1) Adequate preparation for meaningful participation in a career of choice through a standardized “Mind Formation System.” (2) Regulated, methodical access to combined recreation and health sustaining services to be known
as “Lifecare.” (3) Upon completion of career objectives and requirements, final years
will be designed for ultimate comfort and satisfaction within the rewards to be known
as “Freedom.” And so, from the cradle to the grave, every American will enjoy personal achievement, because of the Mind Formation System, the joy of personal interaction with society because of Lifecare, and the dignity of rewards for services rendered to society during retirement because of Freedom. (Seems like a progressive idea to me!)

As a former member of AOL, I received many communications from professing Christians -- as well as from others who were not Christians. Here are a few examples to give you insight into how some of their minds function:

HopeinHim3 said>I understand that you are trying to pass heresy off as the word of God. Sorry, but the spirit of Elijah is not inside you and if any spirit resides in you that is not the Holy Spirit, it is of Satan. I believe you are deceived and I will keep you in my prayers.

A comment from me to HopeinHim3 in response>This person who has never acknowledged reading my web site messages, and has never seemed to understand my message board comments has decided that I am not Elijah -- and that what I am doing is
"of Satan." I feel wounded by that false judgment, and saddened to think that someone who claims to be a follower of Christ could be so wrong -- and so cruel to a person that is doing the work of the Lord.
...................................................................................................................................................
I had this to say to Nicolas Kelsier>You have been guilty of distorting my "image" on AOL for over a year now. Why?

Nicolas Kelsier replied>NO, Elijah. You've been distorting your image. I'm just holding
you up for what you really are. A liar and a fraud. I'll make this very clear to you. Never email me again. Period.

I then responded>Now you say that I am a "liar and a fraud" -- without giving evidence
to prove your false assertions. Have you bothered to explain why you post your ramblings under the name YWN666, and have stalked me from board to board for over a year? By the way, I am sharing this message with your friends here on the board, since you do not wish me to check the upper left E-mail box to get a personal response. I probably won't remember to not check the box in the future. It would be very easy for you to filter me on this board -- and on your mail settings, instead of behaving rudely as you did above.
...................................................................................................................................................
Queenjeanarlene said>I was just diagnosed with end stage renal failure.

I responded this way>These words are from Jesus: Matthew 9:29 "...According to your faith be it unto you..." Anyone with a problem can go to the Lord in prayer. I suggest going to this link, and finding the "Miracle Faith Flower" as a connection point to God.
-- DIVIDING LINE --
...................................................................................................................................................
MitchDTM777 said is reponse to one of the messages I posted on a board>
It is interesting to look at what the early church taught when determining if a Prophet were true or false. Of course any Prophet who teaches contrary to the truths in the Bible, I would assume to be false.

One epistle being circulated by the early church was the 'Didache' or 'Teaching of the Twelve Apostles' [ca. A.D. 140]. Although this did not make it into our Bible and thus is not deemed inspired, it does give us a glimpse of what the early church thought.

The Didache taught that if a Prophet asks for money, he is a false prophet. 1 (I wonder if that would include the request for donations?)

It also says, "Not everyone, who speaks in a spirit is a prophet, unless he have the behavior of the Lord. By his behavior, then, the false prophet and the true prophet shall be known.

[The Faith of the Early Fathers Volume 1, William A. Jurgens, Paragraph 7a]
...................................................................................................................................................
Dret22 said in response to one of my messages>This board is titled Assemblies of
God: A support and fellowship board for members of the Assemblies of God and like minded believers. A/G news and bible based discussion is appropriate here. Proceed with love, concern, and care for one another as your Basic Instruction manual directs.
...................................................................................................................................................
My original Subject was: What is a prophet?

I asked this question when rejected by BJ when expressing a low regard for me>
I wonder if BJ is declined to ignore apostles also -- or just prophets?

Seekr50 said>BJ is inclined to ignore anyone who is so caught up in honorific titles to the extent that the message of salvation in Jesus is watered down. Let me state my position clearly.... Jesus is Lord. He gets all glory and honor. All that we are, all that we do, all that we ever will be... even our very breath is in Him, is about Him, is for Him, and is because of Him. The Bible is God's Word..... God said it.... I believe it.... and that settles it. I reject anything or anyone who's message conflicts with the Bible; or who seeks to elevate themselves or their own agenda over the Bible. Period. End of discussion.

RevTonyAG said after reading my comments>Hmmmmm, I've no doubt that God gives prophetic utterance to men or women at times to do His Will. But I will rely on God's Word, the Bible, for the main guidance in my life. This is why God gave the Bible to us. My pastor
is a good teacher of the Bible, and there are many here who are pastors and teachers who teach the Bible. I do not depend on prophets, but on God Himself. I'll stick to that. BJ

This is how I replied>What does the Bible say about God's priorities on this subject?
1 Corinthians 12:28 "And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues."

RevTonyAG had these sarcastic remarks to make>Friends, Tennessee wrote a long treatise from his own mind and then tied it up with, >Satan has been real busy deceiving those who are gullible.

I am one of the most gullible people on the face of the earth. I am going to early service
and then to a baseball game. My wife also has to go into her office for a couple hours this afternoon to do some end of the year close down stuff.

We are so heathenistic!

And then to think that we have been worshiping God every day and attending the major service on the First Day of the week. How we were ever so gullible to be deceived like this.

Since we didn't go to corporate worship yesterday, I might as well not go in a little while and just spend time wallowing in my heathenistic traditions.

Oh, by the way, Tennessee, haven't you considered doing what you thought of? You know, quit posting "anti" messages on the A/G message board? Tony
...................................................................................................................................................
This was my "Sabbath Day" message from the Bible that started the whole controversy for people like Tony:

“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.”

Do you want God to change His Law so it will read like this?
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy as you attend the religious sanctuary
of your choice. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work unless you are unemployed or retired: But the seventh day is the sabbath, which is either Saturday
or Sunday -- depending upon your version of the calendar -- of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work unless you have urgent matters to attend to, unless your employment requires that you work on the Sabbath, or unless you want to keep busy doing things after you have shown up for a few hours at your chosen church, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates -- within your home -- but if you are outside your gates or away from your home, you can work, play or do anything you want to do: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it for those who stay home or leave home -- depending upon your traditional preferences.

Please, for God's sake, understand the TRUTH of His Law! Centuries of disobedience does not alter the original intent of the Father. Satan has been real busy deceiving the gullible.

SissyBev sent this to Que about me>They is probably a thinkin when's that nice young man gonna quit sittin back and dissectin us and join in the servin!!
Linda said this after going to my website> Did anyone check out this guy's website. It's, well, it's interesting.
Bev said this after checking it out> I guess "interesting" is as good a word as any although a few others did pass through my mind when I went there!
...................................................................................................................................................
I posted this message on a board using my countryfied way of talkin' for the sake
of humor>I grew up in the Church of God, because my daddy was and is a preacher who believes that pentecostals got a good thing a-goin'. I used to think folks in the Assemblies of God were high class compared to us, because they were more liberal, an' had more fun goin' to movies -- an' stuff like that. Well, here we are many years later, an' I stopped attendin' them meetin's, cause I figured out that most pentecostals jes change with the times -- doin' things now that they would never dream of doin' back then. I wonder what happened? Did Jesus change or did pentecostals change? I hope these big wurds I use ain't confusin' anyone. If you need an explanation, jes ask your Sunday School teacher.

This response came from Bruckne0>I first started going to a Holiness church....
the Church of the Nazarene.....when living in Tennessee. Although I have certain gifts
of the Spirit....speaking in tongues is not one of them...I have found that the Church of the Nazarene is serious about holiness living, I have also worshipped in Assembly of God church and found that as you mentioned that the living testimony was not as stringent....just my own personal observation. Many brothers and sisters in the Lord worship both in Pentecostal and Baptist churches.....my preference remains the Church of the Nazarene,......Dennis

After being criticized for leaving my messages on Christian boards by a person complaining about me being a "drive-by" -- instead of one of the "regular" contributors, I responded this way>Your definition of "drive-by" seems condescending with a mix of unrealistic expectations. I assume you would display the same attitude towards Christ in His day, because He seemed to deliver His messages sporadically -- and then
move on to a new location -- as did His disciples. Does this method of "delivery" of God's Word seem inappropriate to you?

Crenee363bz3 had this to say>Hello Elijah, I am really new to this board so I definitely don't speak for anyone here but me. But a "drive-by" is usually someone who drops lines
on a board simply to stir up trouble and then leaves to harrass and disrupt another board. It happens all the time. If you have ever gone into the chat rooms you will see them pop in and out all the time. They are people that simply want to harrass other people and make them feel bad for whatever they say or believe and like the idea of leaving before the person can defend or speak their mind. Kind of like calling someone, screaming at them then hanging up the phone before they had a chance to speak. It can be frustrating to the one hung up on.

I appreciated the explanation from Crenee363bz3, and then tried to give my point
of view>Let me offer my opinion in this way: In Life, many things happen because we humans are in the middle of a struggle between good and evil. Other people are making choices either on the side of Evil or on the side of God. When someone on the Internet chooses to use a message board or a chat room for a purpose that is not compatible with
our particular belief system, if we are a Christian we should not react in the same way as someone who is not a Christian. Therefore, obviously, those who have chosen to be enemies of Christians are going to be hostile, annoying, irritating, unfriendly, etc. These people who do not stay around long enough to receive our replies are really missing out on the primary reason this communication tool is worth the investment. The "drive-by" labeling of a person who is attempting to be kind, humorous, honest, friendly and Christlike does not seem to be appropriate. Differences of theological doctrine should not be equated to "troublemakers" who take delight in performing deeds motivated by Satan.

"Secretary of State Colin Powell, who made the U.S. case to the United Nations earlier this year that mass-killing weapons existed, has insisted over the past few days that his evidence was solid. It had to be, he said during the weekend on 'Fox News Sunday,' because it wasn't the president's credibility and my credibility on the line; it was the credibility of the United States of America.'' -- By TOM RAUM, The Associated Press

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: What about the credibility of Hussein, his sons and the other members of his notorious, murderous regime when they threatened to "burn" America -- along with other blatant threats -- insinuating that they would use of weapons of mass destruction? Where is the media on this perspective? And what about the credibility of the Demoncrats -- and other liberals -- who wanted to ignore the suffering Iraqi men, women and children as they conveniently remained mute on "Human Rights" issues which should have justified intervention -- even if weapons of mass destruction never existed. Seems to me that if a lunatic confronts a police officer on the street and threatens to kill with what appears to be a gun, there is justification for self-defense -- even if the "gun" is only a plastic toy! Bush should be honored for his resolve and accomplishments in ridding the world of this obvious "threat" to humanity! What is wrong with Americans and American haters who want to destroy the good that President Bush is trying to do in Iraq?

Are critics of President Bush on the side of God or Satan?

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: "Credibility" is the buzz word for those who want to question the justification for war in Iraq. Have the Bush-haters forgotten about threats the Saddam regime made prior to the war -- insinuating that they would use weapons of mass destruction? What about the suffering men, women and children of Iraq? Should they have been left to suffer endlessly without intervention from civilized nations? Sometimes, I become very concerned about Americans who seem to stand on the side of evil, instead of standing with President Bush in the war against terrorism!

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: Where is the media's credibility on perspectives pertaining to Arafat's intervention in this latest "Roadmap" endeavor to bring peace to the Middle East? And what about the credibility of Democrats and other liberals in this world who want to ignore the newly liberated Iraqi men, women and children -- while harping on our search for weapons of mass destruction? The existence of these weapons were documented by the United Nations, but have been hidden in places where even Blitz couldn't find. Saddam had years to hide his tracks. We've had only weeks to sniff out his trail. Please be patient, and hope that we can find and eradicate the WMD before we are forced into a "Korean" style blackmail confrontation. Please be patient and hope that Arafat is disposed of before he wrecks our last chance for peace. The threat of "Armageddon" is becoming more and
more valid as current events unfold!

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: Here in Hillbilly Heaven, thanks to common sense and a sincere belief in the integrity of President George W. Bush, we are getting ready to do battle with Demoncrats who want to move into the White House for the sole purpose of asserting their false political agendas. I predict that George will be with us as long as he wants the job! The only way that the Gepfharts or LIEbermans will get enough votes to win in this dog fight is if George decides he would rather get back to the good life in Texas -- where people are still civilized!

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: Sorry, Hillarious, but I just cannot bring myself to buy yer latest book. Maybe I'm an ole stick in the mud, but I doubt if I will even go to the library to read it free-of-charge. In fact, when them folks on television or radio start talkin' about yer book, I just flip the channel. Sorry, Hillarious, but maybe you should just retire from politics and
move to a farm in Arkansas where you can reflect upon yer past without writing it down
to share with the rest of us'ens?

AOL MESSAGE FROM E: Howdy, neighbors, come on in! This little message is just fer
you! No matter how messed up yer life can get when things git bad, jes remember one thing: Jesus loves everyone -- even folks like you who are miserable when yer not rich or famous like me. Don't be jealous! I'm no better or no worse than you -- I'm jes different. God loves me an' he loves you -- no matter what yer religion. So, hang in thare an' be happy! Don't worry, be happy! Don't worry, be happy!
