Yes - Elijah is the Elijah of Rev 11

ELIJAH-YEA
by
William R. McPike
Attorney at Law

ELIJAH - G-d has foretold us in Rev. 11:3..., "And I will give POWER unto my two witnesses..." Rev. 11:6..., "These have power to shut heaven that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over the waters...

TEST THE MOTIVE
What is known about the man calling himself "ELIJAH" in Jerusalem? He is from California. He has been witnessing in Israel for about 15 years.
He is a man and does not claim to be anything other than a man who talks to G-d. He is humble. He lives a simple life. He asks for no money, but he will complain if someone does not offer him a simple glass of water. He has approached government leaders with correspondence telling them that the "land for peace treaty [OSLO-seven year peace treaty] is an abomination to G-d." He has told the leaders that G-d has said there will be no abundant rainfall in the area, due to a treaty buying an everlasting peace from terrorists in exchange for land.

He has his scoffers as did all G-d's prophets. He has been on international TV, via satellite, and he was ridiculed as suffering from "Jerusalem Syndrome" a purported mental affliction that strikes people when they arrive in Jerusalem.

This diagnosis was made by a man who has never counseled ELIJAH as a patient and who instantly received International recognition for volunteering this opinion. [Apparently newcomers to Israel can become fully involved with all the history and timeless figures, but ELIJAH is not a newcomer, as he has been there for 15 years.]
Who sought the publicity of international TV; ELIJAH or the Dr. who made the un-informed diagnosis?
Who was the paid consultant for NBC; ELIJAH or the Dr.?
Who had a motive to say what was said on TV about ELIJAH? The humble man ELIJAH did not seek out NBC to be ridiculed. Did the Dr. gain notoriety as a result of the international publicity?
As a trial Attorney for 20 years I always look to motive for what a person says and does. I find a plus for the Dr., and none for ELIJAH as a result of the NBC broadcast. Test the motives of these men for yourself.

TEST ELIJAH'S MESSAGE. He foretold or witnessed of no abundant rainfall. The reality is that AFTER he witnessed to the Politicians, about the coming lack of rain, no abundant rainfall is the reality. [Just this year rainfall is less than 1/5th of normal. Since 1996 it is only about 25% of normal for this entire time period.] ELIJAH'S message when compared to official rainfall records shows that it was true. Friends this is evidence that you can use in court. No abundant rainfall. ELIJAH is witnessing to the leaders that the peace treaty which is being paid for by giving up G-d's land is an abomination. Who among you disagrees with this message?

IS ELIJAH A NUT OR G-OD'S WITNESS? Remember Revelation 11? I thought that these two witnesses would be on TV, and recognized for who they are; G-D's witnesses. I thought ELIJAH would speak in a booming voice so there would be no misunderstanding. But maybe what I expect G-d to do, or how He should EMPOWER a man to become the witness ELIJAH is not how G-d does things.
Remember what is said about Jesus? He was either a liar, or He was who He said He was. Open your minds and spirit and see what G-d has done.
Has G-d given His POWER to a man who calls himself ELIJAH?
G-d TOLD US he would do this in Rev. 11:3. What or why do we not believe? Is it not truly possible? Is the time not right? Why cannot this man be that man, G-d told us he would send? REJECT IT as NBC did and be a scoffer, or pray about it and see if it is not possible. The man's motives? His message? The true fact of the drought? Even as the days pass we will know much more.

He seems real to me. G-d does things His own way, not how I imagine He should do them. This is an Attorney's perspective. What is yours?

Dear Jim,

I have e-mailed you in the past with questions and you have taken the time to address my concerns with love and kindness..."Thank you"!

I am a long time listener and reqular supporter of Bro. Stair's Ministry and I feel strongly that the man currently in Israel is the bibical Elijah.

Why?

Over the years as I read Revelation I thought that it would be total chaos in the world at the time of the two witnesses ministry. But what the Lord said in Matthew 24:37-39 didn't sound like chaos, it sounded like the surprise of spiritually blind people, unprepared to meet their Lord. What are the end times supposed to look like?...Today, I think!

I am struggling to shake off the world and it's religions and draw nigh to my God.

Thank you, Brother Jim!

I would have to state that in view of all the evidence, that this is indeed Elijah...there is absolutely no reason at this point to believe otherwise...Saturday I felt the Spirit move strongly upon me and took me to the verses in Psalms 85:11,13 concerning " Truth shall spring up from the earth, and righteousness shall look down from heaven."(13) Righteousness shall go before Him and shall make His footsteps a way in which to walk." So until proof comes along otherwise, i state my belief that this is indeed: Elijah...jean

Dear Jim,
Peace of YHWH be unto you brother. If only I could share the burning in my heart with others in this very room right now as I begin to answer your question.
Yes! I believe!
I believe because I choose to to believe. Do we really want Yeshua to return? Many in the church, I am afraid, do not. Their understanding of Bible prophecy rests not on the teaching of G-d, but rather on the teaching of man who has but a breath in his nostrils.
So they say:
"But, he sounds American"...a stumbling block.
"But, there have been 17 inches of rain"...another stumbling block.
"But but, then where is Moses?
Truly He uses the foolish things of this world to shame the wise. Jesus healed on the Sabbath, and then he was killed for it. May The L-rd of Hosts have mercy on this wicked and adulterous generation, for the sign of Jonah has also come.

Hallelujah!
Aaron

Guessing from all the different flak I've caught and just spiritual attacks, You and i must be on to something............Shalom, Bro. Dan
.....BRING IT ON, Even so come Lord Yeshua!

Hi Brother Jim....
I would like to comment on Elijah in Jerusalem. I sense that most people will not hear of it. I think that most are expecting something more supernatural and that the 2 witness's will be better looking or better at speech than this Elijah. The truth is.....that when Jesus walked the earth there was nothing special that stood out that would cause the people around to believe that he was who he was. Although he spoke with the kind of authority that no man had ever heard before.
Moses could not speak well......he was afraid and some say he even may have had a stutter. But God enabled him.
John the Baptist was a different type of man...his clothing, what he ate....etc...again, nothing to make you think he would be who he said he was. But God enabled him to do what needed to be done.
There are many more men like this in the scripture....they were not born of royalty or nobility..... They never lived in palaces or mansions .... they were not rich as the world thinks of riches (unless it was God given and not by their own deeds)...they were REAL men....with real lives. They served a REAL God.......and brought many men to know HIM!
We will know them by their fruit.......we will know them because of what the scripture says about their ministry.
So far, Elijah is on the mark......he is doing what NEEDS to be done and I believe God has enabled him.
We knew them by their fruit and will also see the fruit of Elijah ......the season is now......I pray ALL could see it.
Jesus IS coming......just look around you!!
In Jesus Christ...

Dear Jim,

I have just finished listening to the Elijah phone calls and reading all the words he has written. It's awesome. My spirit votes Yeh.

Jim, all of this answers so many questions I have posed to the Lord about the condition of the world and the obvious storm clouds on the horizon. I know that His ways are not my ways, and His thoughts are not my thoughts, but I do try to understand as much as He will reveal.

This "new" timeline is such a gracious, wonderful gift for me . Although I am still seeking one more confirmation from Him about this, I'm experiencing more peace than I've had in 2 1/2 years. (Since about March 1997, I have been so troubled.....is that a coincidence?) Praise His Holy Name!

Know that He has performed a good work through you!

To God Be The Glory!!

Dear Jim,
The lack of time has prevented me from hearing all the conversations, reading the e-mailings and other material concerning "Elijah".
However, I have reviewed enough to have a more sure answer. Reserving the absolute test of time and more input to be 100% sure. I can say that I not only "feel" in my spirit, but understanding by the words spoken and the obvious results that we may very well have met one of the two witnesses spoken of in Revelation.
This man speaks words that glorify the Lord God, Jehovah. What I have understood him to be doing (not having been there and witnessed in person) he is standing in the streets proclaiming the name of the Lord and is declaring that the Day of the Lord is at hand and His righteous judgment will come/is upon Israel. EVEN if he is not one of the Revelation witnesses -- he is a WITNESS for our Lord and His Kingdom. His humility and obedience to the Lord's every leading is a strong indication of his identity. The fact that he is a Tishbite and now we understand he also is of Hebrew descent is also convincing.
The portrait along side the photo and the story about this is very powerful. Then, also, if, since, we understand by the word of God that we are standing on the edge of the Great Tribulation, Then according to the Word- we should about now be seeing these TWO witnesses! IF he is not Elijah the witness and there is no 2nd witness on the scene, then we would have to begin soon to accept the idea that the seven year Oslo peace pack is not the one referred to in the book of Daniel and we should be looking for another to come later.
So, it fits all the other events that the witness ( and the 2nd) should be on the scene about now. Looking, waiting, hoping, longing and praying for our Lord's SOON return makes it difficult not to believe this man is the one!
When being put in this spot, to give my "vote", I stand with tears in my eyes for I am so ashamed of my lack of knowledge, just in general of the scriptures and especially concerning this witness. So I'm embarrassed to say, but, mostly I am going on that inner "feeling" rather than with a proper discernment based on a strong Biblical position-- I believe that I should declare my position in this way, so as not to lead any astray.
This is my personal "vote", my husband is holding off his opinion until a later time.
Sincerely for Our Lord Jesus Christ,
Barbara

Bro. Searcy,

I just finished listening to the second conversation with Elijah. You asked for comments about whether this witnesses with my spirit. First, I want to say that I am always very cautious about things like this. In the last days, we are told, that many false prophets will arise. There are many on TV. These are easy spotted. Many times I am around people or watch people on TV and the Holy Spirit tells me that these people are fakes. However, I do NOT sense that with this man. As far as this man being Elijah, I am not sure. I would like to hear more conversations with this man or some of his preaching.

Please forgive me if I appear to be waffling on this. I DO feel that this man is a true man of God. I feel that if anyone speaks evil of this man they will be in major trouble with God.

There is one thing I would like to know, if you can find out. Is this man a Jew? I always assumed that Elijah would be from Jewish lineage.

Thank you for giving us this information. If this man is Elijah, the tribulation is upon us. Part of my spirit yearns for the Tribulation. Don't take that the wrong way. I don't enjoy trails and hardships. However, I know that when the Tribulation starts, that the return of Christ is near. "The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." (Rev 11:15) What a blessed day that will be. If we must go through the Tribulation before Christ sets up His earthly Kingdom, I am ready to get started with it.

I am the Men's Fellowship president at out church. We meet on the 3rd Sunday of each month. This Sunday I will be speaking about the judgment of America and I will be taking time to tell the men of our church about Elijah. I already know there will be some opposition to my message. Judgment is coming and people need to prepare. Since the beginning of the year my spirit has been burdened that judgment is upon America. Over the past few weeks it has increased. Almost everytime I admire something, a beautiful building, rolling countryside, almost immediately the Spirit tells me that it will soon burn up. Sometimes my spirit is so overwhelmed because of the judgment coming.

I look forward to reading or hearing more of Elijah.

I listened to your latest conversation with Elijah this morning. I was thrilled to hear that he may have a Jewish lineage and that the Jews have accepted him as a Jew. To me this is very important. In the debate over the identity of the two witnesses in Rev 11, Elijah is always accepted as one. The other is usually seen as Moses or Enoch. I believe it is Moses because Enoch was not a Jew. A Jew is someone from the lineage of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, which Enoch does not fit. The Jews will have to accept them as a Jew. This man may have grown up not realizing that he has a Jewish heritage. However, God has revealed that he is a Jew and the Jews are accepting him as a Jew. I cannot describe the thrill that I got when I heard him say that people have told him that he was Jewish.

Once again, thank you for making these conversations available. If I were pressed for a "yea" or "nay" witness in the spirit based on what I have been able to hear and know so far, I would stand with those saying "yea."

In Christ,
Chet J. Bowen

You should put up on PFWNU the NBC thing and how it validates Elijah by letting him be seen world wide. They will make a show of it when they kill him as predicted. -- Robert

Greetings Brother Jim,
Praise the L-rd! I listened to the new interview, #4, with Elijah.. I'm floored.. The biggest sin in America, God would only be speaking to and of those who name His Name, is the tithe deduction on the income tax.. The truth! The national sins of the heathen, God would not be speaking to.
Adonai instructed me not to deduct my tithe. I do not even keep record of what I give. The L-rd told me that to have your deduction on income tax is to loose the blessing. He let me know this was years ago. The L-rd said to give with an open clean heart expecting nothing in return. To deduct on income tax, and to expect repayment is sin. Elijah said they lie on that too. Does that make it a double sin to those who have taken His Name in vain.
I am convinced this Elijah is the real Elijah of Revelation 11. The truth just seems to roll out his mouth. The world and 98% of "Christians" who have taken the L-rd's Name in vain, are going to hate Him. He will torment them. I feel the Power in his words and the discernment, and confirming witness of the Spirit.
Adonai just gave me Jeremiah 24 :7 "then I will give them a heart to Know ME, that I am Adonai and they shall be MY people and I will be their Elohim, for they shall return to Me with their whole heart"
Another thing that was a shock, but Adonai showed me, was that there are only 2% in the American churches that are saved. Wow, 2% was an extremely low number. I kicked this around for two days and I asked Adonai about it. Maybe it was disbelief or just denial. For the two days, Adonai told me to Multiply the percent by the number of American "Christians." All I could find was around 150 million people who would claim to be "Christians," including people like Bill Clinton and Al Gore, probably wrong!!! That 2% of 150,000,000 "American Christians" = 3,000,000. That 3,000,000 is a larger number than I was expecting. So I believe that God did indeed tell Elijah the truth that there will be less than 2% of the people who call themselves "Christians" who will actually go into the Kingdom of Heaven.
Also I was expressing my opinion to My oldest daughter about how no one really FEARS Adonai. Her school has this thing they do to raise funds which they call, cow patty bingo. They put a cow in a pen and have squares drawn out and numbered. Where the cow droops the cow patty and it lands on that number, the person that has the number square wins. This years it's $500. They are forcing the students to sell tickets to this during the summer months. My oldest has 35 tickets. And if she does not sell all the tickets I have to come up with $100's of dollars for those 35 tickets MUST be sold. MANDATORY THEY HAVE TO DO THIS FOR THE SCHOOL.
I can see this as nothing other than a form of Idolatry, and gambling, and a sin. The biggest ticket buyers have been the big churchy going people. I got plumb angry over this and refused to pay a dime. Since she was of my household, I will not allow her to deal in these tickets and lottery. Adonai told Abraham that not only he must obey Him; but, his household and servants, and even animals as well. The actions of my children could reflect on me getting Blessing or Curses. There is no fear of Adonai, the G-d who can smite you out with one breath.
Thanks for putting the information on Elijah's Ministry in Jerusalem Now, up on the GJiGT www site. One question -- How many are there (no names just a number) that are, (that you know of), that believe that Elijah is the real true Elijah from the L-rd from Rev. 11, for the end
times???
I am not a betting man but I'm thinking it's very very low. I am guessing those who receive him as THE Elijah, are Sabbath keepers, who know that God never did change the 4th commandment.

Shalom
Clay

Dear Clay -- You are right. About 2%, and most seem to know God did not change the 4th commandment. -- Shalom & Simcha, Jim

Dear Brother Jim -

Regarding Elijah, please don't think I am being obtuse, I am not saying definitely for sure that he is the Elijah of Rev 11, although the drought would certainly tend to confirm that. One reason I want to be slow to dismiss Elijah out of hand is this:

Mat 11:11-14 (KJV) 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. 12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. 13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 14 And IF YE WILL RECEIVE IT, this is Elias, which was for to come.

Mat 17:10-12 (KJV) And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come? 11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. 12 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.

In these passages, the disciples knew in the prophecies that Elias had to come before the Messiah, but they did not recognize that John the Baptist fulfilled the prophecy about Elias until Jesus explained it to them. I am sure it wasn't that easy to see, John the Baptist didn't go by the name Elijah or Elias, however, the angel had told John's father that he would go fourth in the spirit of Elijah.

Luke 1:13-17 (KJV) But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. 14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. 15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb. 16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God. 17 And he shall go before him in the SPIRIT AND POWER OF ELIAH, 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.

I doubt that the angel's words to Zacharias were common knowledge in Jerusalem during the time that John was preaching - and what was John preaching - repent and turn to God. What is this Elijah preaching? Repent and turn to God. I think hindsight is always easier, when we have all the gospel accounts where they had already put 2 and 2 together and lay out the whole picture for us. I just don't want to have those eyes that don't see and ears that don't hear. Even if he is not the Elijah of Rev 11, is his message contain anything against the Bible. I haven't found anything. Remember that Elijah was human, too. In I Kings 19 he ran away and hid in a cave for fear right after God sent down fire from heaven to consume the sacrifice. Just because one is a prophet does not require them to have all knowledge, only God has all knowledge.

I think it behooves us to watch current events in the world today and pray that God would show us how they fit into the prophecies, in order that we not be deceived by "common knowledge" or by relying on what someone else tells us concerning prophecy. The following verses indicate to me that if we are not making a real effort to watch events closely, we might miss seeing the fulfilment of prophecy.

Mark 13:33-36. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

Repeatedly through the gospels, Jesus told us to watch and pray that his return would not surprise us. Why would He have given us this warning repeatedly, if it were not important?

John 7:44-52 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him. 45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him? 46 The officers answered, Never man spake like this man. 47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived? 48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him? 49 But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed. 50 Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,) 51 Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth? 52 They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.

In these verses, the Pharisees took for granted "common knowledge" that Jesus was from Galilee, had they only taken time to ask Him, they could easily have found out that He was born in Bethlehem, in fulfilment of prophecy. They knew the prophecies, but did not seek out the facts for themselves in order to verify if Jesus fulfilled the prophecies or not. I hope we don’t make the same mistake.

As for Moses, I think he is in Jerusalem now, too, though he has not come to our attention. Remember in the old Testament that Moses was the one, in accordance with God's command, brought forth water from the Rock. Water is now flowing from the temple mount. It is well confirmed. I know Moses also turned water into blood, by God's power. I think we will see that in the future. I don't know God's time schedule or all His details, so I don't know if both of them being in Jerusalem ministering is part of the fulfillment. I am inclined to think they will get together and begin to minister together in the future. It says they will witness 1260 days, but I don't think it would prove he were not Elijah if he were in Jerusalem longer than that. Sackcloth and ashes is indicative of repentance and being humble. He is preaching repentance and seems very humble to me. Believe me, I want nothing more than to stick with "thus saith the LORD". I just don't want to overlook something right under my nose.

Rev 11:3-12 (KJV) And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. 6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

Reading this section again, I infer that they will be ministering together, but it does not actually say that. I think we have to be careful that we don't read things in that aren't there. But, there is a lot of time left, let's see what happens.

Anyway, as I said, I am not trying to tell you that he is definitely Elijah, maybe just suggesting that we both reserve judgment and see what happens.

Brenda McCurdy

Dear bro. Jim,
i hope this note will clarify my current understanding of the man called 'Elijah'.

YES
i have always said that this IS a man of GOD and that his mission is verifiable by his
a) personal life, b) testimonies and c) prophecies to Israel and surrounding countries.
Yes, we should keep listening and watching Elijah.

KEEP WATCH
However, i cannot definitively say that he is one of the 2 witnesses YET. The first reason i gave was concerning the 3 woes, the 1st one has not occurred yet according to Rev. 9. Secondly the 2nd witness is not seen yet. But the sign of drought may be the beginnings of his ministry, which perhaps will only be fully known to the world in time to come. So i would continue to
watch his ministry and the events preceding the torments brought by the 2 witnesses.

NAY
As i said before, i would NOT dare to say a word against this man of God, or for that matter, any of God's servants. i have nothing negative to share here.

i guess you may have to put me under, YES, Keep watching.
Elohim bless, bro. steve

Dear Jim,
There is all the time something 'coming' and 'already came' about the prophet Elijah.
'The mystery is in the eyes', said the Baalshemtov (the 'Besht') about him. The way Christ is sure about Elijah seems un-Christlike (Matthew 17:11-12).
But I believe that exactly that (deliberate) way it is the very Truth (Jesus Christ: I am the Truth).
'To be SURE ..... comes .... But I TELL YOU ... has already come ...'.
LOOKING at the Elijah he is the coming who was already.

The lack of abundant rain, Jim, is it the man we see or is it the prophet then and coming?

The believer brother Elijah is a man I am too totally fond of.
And really, Our Father in Heaven: He IS a Winner!
Telling that man Mauck to call himself Elijah!
My God, what a love assured, the Elijah to be!

Please add me to the "yea's".
Praise the Lord!
Carel Heldring

Dear Jim,
I have prayed over this and waited on the Lord to reveal to me the truth of the matter. Of this I am sure, The Spirit of the Prophet Elijah and the same spirit that rested on him is definitely resting on him. As the Spirit of Elijah and his prophecy to the nation of Yisrael was that if they did not repent and turn back to G-d and turn from their wickedness that He would pray that no abundant rain would fall, this is happening and the test of a prophet is that what he prophecy's comes true. There is no rain, let alone abundant. Israel suffers from a great water shortage. He has proclaimed these same things as the scriptures say. That they should repent and also that Yeshua HaMeshiach, Meshiack ben David, is coming. This is not unlike what Moses did to Pharoah in that G-d sent him to Pharoah and said let my people go or plagues shall come. The water shortage has come and shall increase more and more until there is repentance. There will be no peace and when Yisrael signs the Peace agreement even greater destruction shall come. G-d will get their attention by this prophecy. It is written.
This he has proclaimed that no abundant rain would come.......Eretz Yisrael is in an emergency state with it's water supply. I cannot prove that he told Rabin, Netanayahu, or the Berak government these things, but I trust that he would not say this if it were not true. Based on these things, and his own testimony that he proclaims these things, then this would mean the spirit of Elijay the prophet rests on him. We should closely follow him to see his destiny for this could truly be Elijah. The Lord, Elohim has not yet told me or brought a definite conviction on my heart that he definitely is and as I am super sensitive to the Spirit and His guidance in all matters, I try the spirits, however as the truth I know from the Word of G-d, this meets scriptures.
I am super sensitive to the Spirit has I have spend long times in the wilderness alone with the Lord. I do know that when I listen to the tapes that the Spirit of the Lord comes upon me very strongly almost enough to knock me down. I have prayed along time for the mantle of Elijah, it was no accident I was lead here.
No one loves a prophet because a real prophet does not prophecy pleasant things, He has not prophecied pleasant things and I am sure many will not like him for his prophecy of "no abundant rain" and especially as the lack of rain and the diminished water supply increases. Therefore, he is in my prayers and if I have wheat and oil, and he needs it, let me know.
Feel free to use any parts of my letter you need. My prayers for you, Elijah, the Peace of Jerusalem, and all those who are lost.
Prayerfully and to His Glory,
His handmaid,
Hadassah.

Dear Brother Jim,
How are you doing my friend ? The e-mails I've read on your web-site, and the interview I heard on Brother Stair's OverComer Broadcast with Elijah are great warnings to the heathen of Israel and to the world. God bless Elijah and what he's doing to warn the last generation to REPENT to our LORD GOD !
Shame on the news media, Tom Brokaw, and other anti-christ people who poke fun at Christians for talking to GOD. GOD is an awesome GOD. GOD is GOD! Thou Shalt have no other GOD's before me, saith Your Lord GOD. Wake up people and read your BIBLE. We are the last Generation ! Blashpheming the Holy Ghost is an Unpardonable sin! Lucifer's time is short and he knows it. Elijah has been raised up to warn us to Repent !!!!!
I am a member of a prophecy e-mail discussion group and many are trying to discredit Elijah and you Brother as diseased with "Jerusalem Syndrome." If these people genuinely knew you, they would believe differently. However Jim, many of the letters were to the defense of your web-site and agreed on " Who are they to judge and criticize Elijah and his message, and decide whether or not he's for real" One thing is for sure, you won't find non-scriptural preaching from Elijah's Lips, for he speaks the truth . There is much controversy Jim, but I'm behind you and think secretly many more are too, they just won't openly admit it in public.
Yeshua said He didn't come to bring peace to the world did He? Keep up your chin Brother and look to Heaven, Alleluia Yeshua !
Looking for his soon return,

Dear Brother Searcy,

I am not for sure whether this man calling himself Elijah is one of the two witness mentioned in Rev. 11, but I have a stronger feel for that he IS one of the witnesses than for that he is not. I say YEA until the contrary is proven.
Btw. I read all the Elijah Yea/Nea postings and there's one thing that strikes me, that is that none of the NAY-sayers seem to have had a witnessing of the Spirit.
Some of the YEA-sayers have had a witnessing, but you just won't find a witnessing at the side of the NAY-sayers.

I wish you and everybody who reads this the blessings of Adonai haElyon,
Shalom alaykhim, Edward Fredriks from The Netherlands.
