Days of May
By Tennessee Elijah

EWNR – A flood of sorrow is drowning the joy of my soul and filling me with frustration as I witness the degeneracy of Christianity. In manmade structures where millions of people congregate and conform themselves to social traditions void of Holy Spirituality, they can be seen going through rituals, practicing religious formalities and pretending to be the chosen of God. In my heart, deep within my emotions, there is compassion for lost souls who choose to reject messages I bring. Even so, much that should
have been done with their cooperation will never be brought to fruition, because of arrogance, because of doubt and because of mockery.

In this month, following America's liberation of Iraq,
we are now witnessing a Middle East "roadmap to peace" that is taking a dangerous detour.

We are witnessing continued division in world political forces, economic instability and uncertainty about the future as it relates to peace and war. Even though President Bush has taken the lead against terrorism while upholding the dignity of his office, his many detractors are further dividing the United States of America. Liberal Democrats have become the enemies of common sense and decency, focusing on tolerance and diversity instead of promoting the values of individual responsibility and community unity. Even though there are exceptions, majority voters are so corrupted because of liberal bias in the media, hope for rational thinking in D.C. is nonexistent.

In these days of transition, people in all nations are taking confrontational positions on opposing sides of the dividing line. Whether we as individuals are religious or political, liberal or conservative, secular or spiritual in the nature of our psyche, our departure from historic principles that brought America to this point in time has caused each of us to lose our sense of direction. We have no foundation upon which to place futuristic objectives. The divisions among us have destabilized great institutions. Degeneracy of body, soul and spirits within aggressive leaders who maintain control of human destiny has impacted the world – filling the weak with fear and trepidation. Once corruption is pervasive, innocence will never be
restored without supernatural intervention.

If there was a way to reach every person in every nation with a message, what would God want to tell us? Is there a warning of events to come that would be accepted without question by agnostics or atheists? Could there be a promise that would entice everyone to change from their evil ways? Would God want to give rebellious souls one more opportunity to accept His only begotten Son before the final conflict destroys what is left of civilized communications?

We are all sinners who will suffer separation
from the Maker if we refuse to bow down
in repentance before it's too late!

We all sin by breaking the Laws of God each day in many ways while wondering – does our personal "sin" seem irrelevant or too insignificant for repentance in our own minds? Does anyone in this generation contemplate the consequences of disobedience as it relates to the realm of the Spirit?

Sin has become a factor in habitual lifestyles outside of the will of our Father Creator. Both leaders and followers within the context of every philosophy are guilty of distorting perfection of purpose, perverting morality and freely dismissing Truth without serious interpretation. Those who are guilty of deceiving themselves are destroying the beauty of Truth, Love and Beauty; those who intentionally deceive others are nothing more than tortured souls who take delight in diminishing the goodness of faith, family, honesty among nations and respect for God – Lord Jesus Christ.

Though I would prefer to lay down and die in this cesspool of abominations, my struggle against evil will continue until Jesus brings this mission of
mine to an end. There is no earthly reward for me to seek and no earthly recognition for me to crave as the Spirit within these words is poured out – only to be ignored by the heathen. I can lead a horse to water, wanting it
to drink, but making it fly through the sky will never be an easy task for Elijah -- or anyone else until Jesus comes to show the way.

"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out
of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress
of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written...,

KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."
Revelation 19:11-16
