In opening this study, we must recognize that Satan has existed on this planet over a long period of time -- prior to and during the
birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension of Lord Jesus Christ. His is still alive today! Most scholars of Holy Writings will readily admit that the Evil One seized every
opportunity to tempt and deceive humanity throughout history -- and he is still actively engaged in all of our lives. Even though these words are being expressed in response to "Elijah Studies (1) through (9)" by Connie W. Adams as printed in Truth Magazine of Bowling Green, Kentucky -- it's this "(10th)" study by Tennessee Elijah that we expect many Christians to read worldwide. Let all people contemplate this evidence with prayerful veneration. Considering that interpretation of scripture related to "Elijah" does not allow for acceptance of my presence by most people, it's this confusion of Truth that must now be approached with humility before each person -- and before God. Typical of those opinions shared by most who do not believe Elijah will precede the coming of Christ in these days is the study done by Connie W. Adams in the August issue of Truth Magazine: "Sometime ago I received a letter which began with the announcement ‘I am Elijah of Malachi 4:5.' Reading through some old papers I came across an article by L.O. Sanderson reviewing a letter he had received from a man making the same claim in 1943. Inasmuch as we have undertaken a rather lengthy study of the prophet Elijah, and since from time to time some demonstrate their ignorance of the word of God by mishandling what it says concerning the coming of Elijah before Christ, I thought it proper to close this study by considering the second Elijah." Yes, many have claimed to be Elijah in the same way that many have claimed to come in the name of the Lord. Do we conclude that a false Christ negates the reality of Jesus? In the same way, why should the existence of Elijah be questioned because Satan-inspired imitators throughout history have come in this name? Whether or not God chooses to reveal my true earthly identity or simply allows nations to disregard my messages will be determined by Him and Him alone as He deems appropriate. Meanwhile, for the sake of debating my Spiritual existence, Christians in every nation should continue to study the merits of this controversial subject without fear, confusion or bias. It is my intention to respectfully respond to the Adams study -- "Learning from Elijah (9)" -- by interjecting commentary of my own. Once I have carefully and prayerfully expressed myself in this way, there will be very little time or energy wasted in the future to offer further clarification in regard to my Spiritual identity. Truth is strong enough to stand alone; take your side to stand with it -- or take your side to stand against it! Adams made the first point: "Elijah Promised. The last two verses of the Old Testament read, ‘Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: and he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.' " This quotation taken from Malachi, chapter 4, verses 5 and 6 is the source of the confusion of Truth that I made reference to in my introductory remarks. These verses have inspired many to assume a false identity out of ignorance, satanic delusion or through conscious intent to deceive. Regardless, if sincere Christians have sufficient faith to believe in the Holy Word of God, the words in Malachi should be regarded as relevant to my current experience. Even the most extreme skeptic should be able to admit that God is able to perform miraculous wonders. Adams made the second point: "Elijah Expected. That the Jews expected Elijah to appear before their Messiah is seen in several passages. Not only did they expect him, they associated great and unusual occurrences with his coming. When Jesus asked his disciples what others said of him, one reply was ‘Thou art Elias' (the Greek form of the Hebrew word Elijah, Matt. 16:14). The same estimate was given in Mark 9:15 and Luke 9:18, 19. On the Mount of Transfiguration the voice from heaven said, ‘This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.' Then the disciples asked, ‘Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?' Jesus then confirmed the fact that ‘Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things' (Matt. 17:5-11)." People who read the Bible, professing to follow the teachings of Christ in their daily lives, seldom make an effort to review the original Hebrew or Greek text -- simply because they do not have the knowledge or time to do comparative studies. Thousands of translations inspired by God's Word have come into this world -- many of which add clarity to Truth-seeking minds while other translations add to the confusion. For the sake of maintaining a proper perspective, scholars need to realize that it is within the capacity of omnipotent Jehovah God to express Himself anyway that He chooses. His Word is found within undocumented events, in ancient writings hidden from view, through Holy Spirit inspired utterances and in prophetic communications. It would be foolish for any person to selectively accept only logical, easy-to-believe words which may conveniently conform to a carnal mind set. Obviously, when Truth is revealed unexpectedly by way of a new translation or in a prophetic utterance, conflict between those who take opposing points-of-views usually results in doctrinal divisions within the Body of Christ. We now understand that Adams believes -- "Elijah was promised and expected" -- because she had sufficient faith to accept the "Word" as expressed in the Bible. Adams made the third point: "Elijah came. ‘But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed, Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist' (Matt. 17:12-13). There are many speculators, including the Mormons, who do not believe Elias has come. Christ said he had, and the apostles understood that he spoke of John the Baptist. ‘For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear' (Matt. 11:13-15). This is crucial to our study." Who are these "many speculators, including the Mormons who do not believe Elias has come," according to Adams and other "speculators?" Without doubt, opposing opinions become possible when intelligent people interpret the Word from different perspectives. No good purpose would be served by simply making honest, emphatic declarations when scholars are confining God to personal versions of "chapter-verse-and-line" arguments. So, from this point in this discourse, my purpose will be limited to raising questions within human consciousness, praying that consultation between family members, friends and genuine Christian leaders will lend itself to realistic and informed understanding. As Adams suggested, "Matthew, chapter 11, verses 13 through 1 is crucial to this study." For the sake of brevity, keep your Bible close -- and carefully read the suggested verses. Then consider: What is the nature of a mortal biological being? What is the nature of an eternal Spirit? How do we define a human body or a human soul? How do we define God or Elijah? Is God a Spirit, invisible like wind -- or just a fantasy? Is Elijah a Spirit, a soul, a human body or all three? Was Jesus a genetically impure human or a Divine soul with the Spirit Mind of God who entered this dimension of Life through virgin birth? Was the Life of John the Baptist a vital link to the revelation of Jesus Christ? In Matthew 11:11, we read what Jesus had to say: "Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he." So, we are left wondering: Was the original Elijah born of a woman? Was he an ordinary human baby who grew to be a man? What was the miracle of his "power" inherent in the "mantle" bestowed upon Elisha? Was Elisha born of an ordinary woman? What made Elisha unique -- the mantle or God? Should intelligent Bible-readers be able to conclude that John the Baptist was superior or equal when making comparisons between Elijah the Tishbite, Elisha or other common men who lived uncommon lives? We know that Jesus was born of a woman -- and we know that He was superior to John. Why would Jesus say, "he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he" -- John? -- yet everyone on Earth was inferior to this prophet. Why? Was it human flesh or the Spirit of God making a difference? The semantics of the Word can exhaust inquisitive minds! After a lifetime of study, answers to these questions might still prove elusive to most scholars. Adams had this to say: "Jesus had been discussing the preaching of John. He pointed out that John was more than a prophet, he was the one of whom it was written, ‘Behold I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee' (v.10). But why did Jesus say, ‘if ye will receive it, this is Elias' unless their expectations of Elias were contrary to what the prophets intended? It is well known that the Jews misinterpreted many of the prophecies concerning the Messiah and his kingdom. They had visions of a carnal empire ruled by a sword-wielding Messiah. They found it difficult to accept the teaching ‘My kingdom is not of this world.' ‘The kingdom is within you' and it ‘cometh not with observation' (John 18:36; Luke 17:20-21). Likewise they found it hard to conceive of a ‘coming' of Elijah in any manner except that of an actual, bodily appearance of the Old Testament prophet." Like skeptics who lived long ago, we have skeptics in this day who find it very difficult to "conceive of a 'coming' of Elijah in any manner except that of an actual, bodily appearance of the Old Testament prophet." In spite of confusion created by deceivers, the disciples understood how the soul of a prophet who had been gone for hundreds of years could then reappear through a Divine process. How did God choose to reveal Himself in Jesus? Did He suddenly appear or was a miraculous birth involved? Find scripture to either support or refute me! (Please read it before you misquote it!) Was incarnation of the Elijah Spirit into the soul of John a possibility? Who was it that created the Spirit in the first place -- man or God? What did it mean for John to come in the "spirit" of Elijah? Why do carnally-minded people believe that being caught away in a "chariot of fire" equates to eternal Life for the flesh? Does the strange departure of Enoch suggest that he, too, was never transformed by the Hand of God? What about thousands of other missing people on this planet? Have they been ushered into the domain of God still wearing earthly garb? Adams had this to say: "Well then, why did John say he was not Elias? ‘And they asked him, what then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No. Then said they unto him, Who are thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayeth thou of thyself? He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esias' (John 1:21-23). How could Jesus say John was the Elias promised when John himself denied it? The answer is found in the difference between the Jewish concept of the promised Elias, and the manner in which John fulfilled the prophecies concerning Elias. He was not Elijah literally returned from heaven, yet in his work he fulfilled all the demands of the prophecies about Elias." To believe the "Elijah literally returned from heaven" concept, you would need to believe in the literal bodily existence of Elijah in heaven. What did Jesus say about "flesh and blood" entering the kingdom of God? Would that Law apply to everyone except for Elijah and Enoch? Should Bible scholars of this day be considered "greater than John?" Did he not say, "No" when questioned about his identity to the suggestion that he might be "Elias?" Was John stupid? Did he lie? I think not! John knew that the questions were coming out of hearts filled with carnal reasoning. If he had said, "Yes, I am Elias," they might have assumed him to be the bodily manifestation of the original prophet. To avoid confusion, he met them on their earthly level of intellectual awareness and denied his identity in human terms -- not "Spiritual" terms! To further clarify, he specifically spoke of the fulfillment of Esaias -- not of Malachi. Why? Is there a distinction to be made between the two prophetic promises relative to the first advent of Christ in contrast to that which is yet to come? Were Esaias and Malachi talking about the same Elijah? We know that Jesus acknowledged the true identity of John, recognizing the Spiritual nature of his soul. So, in essence, there really is no contradiction between what John said and what Jesus said. Confusion only comes when the Scripture is interpreted inaccurately. Adams had this to say: "The solution is readily seen in Luke 1:17. ‘And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.' Thus the angel who spoke to Zacharias before the birth of John clarified the matter by showing that in his work of making ready a people for the Lord, he was going forth ‘in the spirit and power of Elias.' Was John really Elijah returned to the flesh? No. Was he the Elijah of prophesy to prepare the way for Messiah? Yes, in this he went forth in the ‘spirit and power of Elias.' Many errors have been foisted upon the world by those moved by a blind materialism and who will not perceive the spiritual aspects of the Kingdom of Christ. They have blundered in the same way the Jews did in their carnal expectations." "Was John really Elijah returned to the flesh?" The answer should have been, Yes! The Elijah Spirit occupied the body of John. John was a member of the family yet Jesus spoke of him not as a human cousin, but from a Spiritual perspective: "And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come." We may wonder, could the Elijah Spirit be sent to Earth by God more than once? If not, why not? We may also question, did John succeed in turning the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to their fathers? The answer is, No! John the Baptist lost his Life prematurely. Had a restoration of "hearts" been accomplished, why would the life and crucifixion of Jesus have been necessary? Did Jesus come to die "for" our sins -- or "because" of our sins? Did God come and smite the Earth with the Malachi-promised curse during the generation of John the Baptist? No! Did the curse come after the departure of Christ and His disciples? No! Has the curse from God come at any specific point in human history up to this point? Not yet! In Psalms 89:34 we read: "My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips." Apparently, the curse may still come? For those who might be reluctant to consider changing doctrinal opinions, it would be a mistake to regard past wars or calamities of nature as proof that the Earth has already been cursed. "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord." That day will come after the curse if I fail in my mission -- after loyal souls are caught away. That "dreadful day" will be the day that Jesus returns to defeat Satan! Adams made a few conclusions: "These passages uproot a number of errors: (1) They disprove any notion that John the Baptist was Elijah physically returned to the earth; (2) They show that John did fulfill all of the demands of the prophecies concerning the coming of Elijah in preparing a people for the Lord; (3) They expose as false any modern ‘prophet' who claims to fulfill these prophecies; (4) They point up the error of such groups as the Mormons and others, who tell us these prophecies are yet to be fulfilled." Would Satan want to sow seeds of doubt in the minds of scholars to turn humankind away from God and His chosen prophets? Yes! We have seen media reports pertaining to a psychological disorder known as the "Jerusalem Syndrome." In this way, the sanity of anyone who claims to be Moses or Elijah is brought into question. The result of Elijah being judged insane, deceptive, ignorant or foolish by psychologists, secular humanists or uninformed Christians -- the Truth inherent within messages I am sending out will come to naught. And then while lost souls slumber in complacency, engaging in idolatry by bowing down to false gods, the wrath of Jehovah will be cast out upon Earth in the form of the promised curse without further warning! By the way, "Elijah" is not a Mormon or a member of any other organized group; Planet Earth is my Church and Life is my religion! Please find Scripture to either support or refute me! Adams made the fourth point: "Elijah and John. If John came in the ‘spirit and power' of Elijah, this calls for an analogy between the two men and their work. Comparing and contrasting Bible characters can be hazardous. There is a tendency to overdraw such analogies and find comparisons which may only exist in the writer's mind. The other danger is to miss vital lessons to be gained for fear of overdoing it. The only safe course is to confine such matters to what is plainly revealed in Scripture. So, we proceed with caution." Elijah is not to be identified by criteria dictated by King Ahab, Jezebel, Martin Luther King, Pope John Paul II, Billy Graham -- or anyone else! Only God has the power and authority to define me! Elisha is not to be diminished, because he didn't bring famine to Israel or hide in a cave to escape a vengeful woman. John the Baptist is not to be described as someone who had a mission similar to the Tishbite or this Tennessean. John's purpose was to pass the Elijah "mantle" -- the "dove" -- the Spirit on to Christ during water baptism. Thus, the idea of "being born of Spirit" took prominence over "being born of flesh." Adams continued: "The two were alike in their rugged appearance. Elijah was a man of the wilderness and so was John. Jesus said of John: ‘What went ye out in the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear soft clothing are in King's houses' (Matt. 11:7-8). ‘And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey' (Matt. 3:4). Both were hardened by the privations of wilderness life with its' course fare. There is ever noticeable an abruptness of action and speech characteristic of those who are not trained in the amenities of parlor talk and etiquette." Does this mean that I'd need to bind my loins in a leather girdle or eat locusts and wild honey to be taken seriously by Adams? If McDonald's had existed in olden days, Elijah might have eaten cheeseburgers and fries; John might have been wearing faded blue jeans and a torn T-shirt when he baptized the Master if a Walmart had been nearby for family shopping. As for me, my body creaks, my personality can be cranky, and I am adorned with a badly groomed beard, scraggily hair and often wear clothes purchased from the Salvation Army stores. Adams had it right, but could have elaborated: "Comparing and contrasting Bible characters with contemporary prophets can be hazardous." Adams continued: "They were alike in their singularity of purpose. Both were sent of God to do a most necessary work. Elijah spoke to Ahab of the God before whom he stood. John likewise went about his work with an awareness that it was before God. Nothing prevented either of them from boldly declaring what was needed. Preachers of today would do well to remember this singularity of purpose demonstrated so nobly by these two, and to take into account along with it Paul's statement ‘For if I pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ' (Gal. 1:10). They were alike in the source of their messages. Both were spokesmen for God and he provided them with direct inspiration." I concur! Adams continued: "Both men were sent in a time of great spiritual depression. Elijah faced an Israel indifferent to God and his covenants. They had not fully accepted Baal and rejected God, so they thought. They took no positive stand either way, but complacency followed the ambitious designs of Jezebel whose purpose was to infest Israel with this false worship. John also faced an Israel deep in sin. There was no Baal worship in the land, but he faced a spiritual dearth nonetheless. They had built a scaffold of human traditions around the law to protect it from violation, but came to revere the scaffold more than the law itself. They sought to bind their traditions as the will of God. They had forsaken mercy and justice. They reposed behind the immaculate robes of a corrupt priesthood and allowed the temple of God to be turned into a house of merchandise. Greed, hatred, jealousy, to name a few, were words which well summarized the people and their times. How could such a people be expected to receive the covenant of grace, mercy and peace? To this end came John, the voice of one crying in the wilderness. As in the days of Elijah, strong words were necessary and fully employed." Spiritual degeneration, religious human tradition, servitude to a god of money, transforming
houses of worship into financial institutions and rejection of Holy
Words are as common in this day as in days gone by. Since 1938 in one way or another, I've been expressing myself to family members, religious leaders, politicians, friends and enemies. Now here we are in this day and if we were to ask any preacher, priest, rabbi or any other self-described religious leader what the significance of "Elijah" is at this time in history, would they know? It is not my purpose to clarify contradictory viewpoints or to conform myself to a multitude of arguments for the sake of acceptance. Rather, I will merely express my thoughts as deemed appropriate -- praying for understanding. Bogus questions will get bogus answers in this evil era dominated by carnality. The souls of humankind are languishing in murky cesspools that are overflowing with doubt, because of a lack of faith -- and nations are blind to the ways of God! Bible scholars who deceptively distort the meaning of Scripture will not be able to answer these questions: Will God send Elijah back to Earth again? If so, how will be come? Will he be born into the world as a baby or will he arrive in a chariot of fire? Will he be educated in a highly esteemed university or will his knowledge come from God? Will he be born into wealth or live in poverty? Will he belong to a particular religious group or will he resist conformity to establishment traditions? Is Tennessee Elijah really Elijah incarnate? In Matthew, chapter 17, we read that Peter, James and John his brother had witnessed the transfiguration of Christ as He appeared with Moses and Elijah on a high mountain. Peter was so impressed that he proposed the erection of three tabernacles -- one for the Lord, one for Moses and one for Elijah. Peter was interrupted by a voice coming out of a bright cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him." Later, Jesus told them, "Tell this vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen from the dead." So, now I ask those who read these words, why would God want the disciples to see Jesus, Moses and Elijah together in a vision? Why did God say, "This is my beloved Son" -- without designating whether "my beloved Son" referred to Jesus, Moses, Elijah -- or all three? As we know from reading Scripture, Jesus is the only "begotten" Son of God. Could there have been other "Spiritual" sons in existence? Why did Jesus ask them to keep their vision a secret until after he had died and then returned to Life prior to His ascension? Could this be a clue? Since Moses and Elijah had departed the planet without leaving photos behind to help the disciples make a positive identification, how did they know whom they were seeing in the vision? God only mentioned His "beloved Son." Does anyone think that maybe the three personalities we know as Jesus, Moses and Elijah might actually be separate manifestations of God in human form and that's why the disciples reacted to the vision with such adoration? Without knowing the undistorted image of God, how could anyone possibly know the earthly extent of His intent? How is it that faith alone does not reveal the totality of God's many forms, power and purpose? Did John the Baptist pass a Spiritual "mantle" to Christ in the same way that Elijah of old passed the mantle to Elisha? Did the Lord "suddenly come to his temple" during the days of John the Baptist? If you think He did, what does the word "temple" signify in the context of water baptism? Is it possible that the "temple" of Elijah has something to do with the "soul" of Elijah? My existence on Planet Earth is the best kept secret in the history of religious news disseminating organizations! Political and business leaders who presently dominate nations with false philosophies would be greatly disturbed if my messages designed to expose sinful lifestyles were successfully released to the masses. Even though I have contacted Presidents, Kings, Queens, money mongers and Bible thumpers through the years, they have not received me or believed me. I wonder if Satan has more influence over the thoughts of those who doubt my credibility than I do? Will I be an outcast until the end? By the way, "And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, TWO MEN stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." These two "angelic men" will be the "two witnesses" -- not Moses and Elijah as many predict. By the way, "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." To be "caught up" means that loyal souls will be instantaneously plucked out of bodies to be with Christ. Most theories pertaining to a dramatic disappearance by millions of Christians is based on false teaching by false prophets! Bodies left behind will continue to survive as they are taken over by deceiving spirits. Of course, adversaries discount this Truth coming through me, because biblical language can be difficult to decipher. God has a way of expressing Himself in vague terms rather than clearly outlining prophetic revelation. To doubters and mockers, I say, A prophet is not sent by God only to quote His Word, but is sent to speak of that which has not yet been spoken! Adams concluded: "They were alike, to a certain extent, in the effect of their preaching. Both of them made the people conscious of sin and called for repentance. Elijah sought to bring Israel back to the covenant they had despised, not only for the good of their souls, but for the future hope of the nation. John's message was, ‘Repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand' (Matt. 3:2). Living in rebellion to the covenant God made with their fathers ill-prepared them for submitting to God's rule in the kingdom of Christ. Hence, the work of John was to ‘make ready a people, prepared for the Lord.' Both men stirred the wrath of an angry woman. Elijah faced the wrath of Jezebel. John faced the wrath of Herodias who was not pleased to be identified as an adulteress and a party to an unlawful marriage. Both Ahab and Herod were dominated by unscrupulous women and both Elijah and John suffered from their indignation. Elijah was forced to flee for his life, and John lost his for faithfully preaching the truth. The two differed in the manner by which they departed this world. Elijah was translated in a whirlwind, an occasion of majesty and splendor. John suffered the executioner's axe. Nothing about his death seemed glorious. Yet, both men discharged their duties with fidelity. Jesus honored John by saying ‘Among those born of women there hath not arisen a greater than John the Baptist.' Finally, consider the honor shown to both in the statement that John's work was in the ‘spirit and power of Elijah.' What an honor to John to be identified with so noble a prophet as the faithful Elijah. But the memory of Elijah is honored in that the forerunner of Christ, the one who prepared Israel for the kingdom which existed in the eternal purpose of God, to which the prophets had pointed and labored to keep the nation true to the covenant which was to last ‘til the seed should come' --that forerunner of ‘the lamb slain before the foundation of the world' (1 Pet. 1:18), should be described as going forth in the ‘spirit and power of Elijah.' This indicates such high esteem for Elijah, the subject of this prolonged study, that the writer feels more justified in penning this series of articles. ‘For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope' (Rom. 15:4)." During this last generation where eternal Life hangs in the balance, lost souls play the day away. There is no remorse for sin shown by people who think of pleasure only! Now is the time to remove barriers between you and God Almighty! A glorious day is coming as promised, yet the darkness of many storms will pass over nations before Jesus reveals Himself! Now is the time for repentance! God is all we need! In Matthew, chapter 12, verses 34-37, we read these words spoken by Jesus: "O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." Before Elijah is taken away, it will be his custom to put messages received from God on the Internet when he is not hand-delivering free copies to strangers in public places. In the final analysis, it will be God Himself who will reveal his Spiritual identity. Everything he says, writes or creates can be copied and shared without permission. We believe that every person who refuses to believe his messages-- will be held accountable by God. We are here to honor the Holy Master -- not to make "Elijah" famous or rich! Potential literary agents and publishers: If there is an attempt to "profit" in some way, however, we highly recommend that reasonable royalties be paid to Elijah -- or to his surviving family members.
