Pseudo-Elijah in Israel
Jim Searcy's Great Joy in Tribulation web site announced some time ago that
Elijah the prophet has been prophesying to the leaders of Israel since 1996.
Although Searcy identifies this prophet as one of the two witnesses of
Revelation 11, Al Cupppett, a(nother) military agent and frequent speaker of
the Prophecy Club, rejects this theory in favor of pseudo-Elijah being the
fulfillment of Malachi 4:4,5. It seems significant that Cuppett, like the
promoters of The Call, D.C., believe that Malachi 4:5,6 awaits fulfillment
even though Jesus said that John the Baptist fulfilled this prophecy. "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] Cuppett reads into Jesus' interpretation of
Malachi's prophecy that the italicized "it", which was not even in the
original Greek text, refers to John's message instead of Jesus' statement.
Therefore, John the Baptist is Elijah only on the condition that the Jews
receive John's' message!
[Al Cuppett] "I will send you Elijah the prophet. It doesn't say I will
send you the prophet, Elijah, which would be the real Elijah. But it says I
will send you Elijah the prophet, a prophet named Elijah and he'll turn the
hearts of the children to the fathers and the fathers to the children and so
forth. John the Baptist stated, I am not Elijah. Jesus said, this is Elijah
if you will receive it, his message. . .they didn't, they beheaded him.
Elijah and Moses came down on the Mount of Transfiguration. . .they both
went back to heaven. . .no one has yet fulfilled the prophecy of turning the
hearts of the children to the fathers and so forth. Therefore, this man is
the man. . .no doubt in my mind, I spent 20 days with him. . .I've hauled
him around the United States. . . he's over in Cyprus now. . ." 1.
Elijah has a low view of the Church and believes "The real people have the
name of Jesus, Yeshua ha Mashiach. That's what it's all about." Elijah has
also prophesied judgment upon Israel's leaders who arrested him and put him
in a mental hospital.
"God is judging you people, you are not worthy to be called Jews because
you don't live God's Holy Law. Barak, you are a law breaker and judgment
upon this land is because the blood is on your hands and your governments
hands for what your doing. You set me, you let them take me to that interior
department, torment me every time I come into the country, every time I went
out, you allowed those people to torment me and the interior department with
the Haredim and then you had the secret police harass me, pick me up, you
had the Massad come against me and haul me to a mental hospital. They tried
to destroy me with drugs and pills but God raised me up, God kept me alive,
God gives me life, you can't kill me. Your evil people can't kill me because
I have a God but you will see yourself flee out of Israel for what your
seeing. Unless you repent, Now Repent."
Elijah has prophesied that judgment is about to fall on Israel where,
ironically, he and Cuppett advise U.S. Jews to flee:
"But, I can assure you this, the record 3 year drought in Israel is FACT.
Elijah warned them to do right, in writing, before it ever started. I saw
his letters, and I read them. Israel shall heed the warnings soon,
otherwise, they shall have to vacate the land for lack of water. But,
prophetic scripture never removes them once they return as a nation in 1948.
Therefore, they and the Government of Israel, shall heed, and obey his
words. The U. S. Jews better escape to Israel soon."
". . .Regarding the time and the seasons, that is numbers of the dates,
and times, written and set forth in the word of God, well, they must all be
shortened, as the Lord has reserved that right, to save the elect, and
almighty God shall have to do so, and is already doing it. That is to save
us. As of July, 1999 we are on the very brink of global disaster. Prepare to
meet thy God for you shall soon meet Him. And when you meet him you will
recognize him as the GREAT I AM, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST." 2.
Ludicrous examples of what passes for new revelation abound at The Great Joy
in Tribulation web site. The following priceless gems from two Messianic
Jews, Jerry Golden and Tom Carlson, and Al Cuppett (who seems to contradict
his previous statement) are offered as proof that Elijah is one of the two
witnesses. [Please note that Jerry Golden maintains, "I wrote (this letter)
before ever meeting this man who calls himself Elijah, with in minutes of
meeting him I was sure he was not who he said he was."]
[Jerry Golden] "It was in 1980, I was sitting at a sidewalk cafe on Ben
Yehuda Street downtown Jerusalem, Israel, my wife, two daughters and son
Joel were with me. When a young man sat beside us on a stone bench. He was
an artist with a large drawing pad, with Pastels, in just a few minutes he
did a portrait of a man. When I looked at it, the Lord spoke to me, and said
that is Elijah. I asked him if it was for sale, and how much. He said yes,
ten shekels, (about $6. back then). I bought it and took it straight to a
framer, and had it framed. It hung in our home for seventeen years, every
time someone looked at it over those years I would tell them, that the Lord
told me, that was Elijah. When the Lord told Connie and I to sell our house
and He would send us on a new mission. That mission turned out to be
disaster preparedness for His people across this land. Then I packed the
painting and put it in storage, where it has been for the past three years.
"Needless to say, after all those years I hadn't given it much thought,
that is until things began to happen in the spirit. A Pastor friend of mine
'Rev. Tom Carlson' (a Messianic Jew like myself) in Des Moines, Iowa, went
to Israel, and while there he met a man of God who he believed to be Elijah.
When he told me about it, I tried to be nice, but the truth is, I thought he
had lost it, if you know what I mean. He told me that news media people from
all over the world where [sic] interviewing him. Pastor Tom himself has a
daily radio program and has aired many taped interviewed sessions. Almost as
a gesture I told Pastor Tom about the painting I had, and that I felt like
God spoke to me and said it was of Elijah. He asked me what the picture
looked like, I gave him a description of it and the phone went very still
for a few moments. He came back on and said he had gotten such a witness
that he could hardly speak. When he got some pictures of Elijah printed to
show people I saw one, and it nearly knocked me down. It was the same man in
the pastel drawing. I took some friends and went to my storage shed. I
wasn't sure where it was, but we found it with a lot of other paintings we
have. When I compared the two together it was him, it was Elijah. Or a
perfect likeness of him.
"Now the Bible tells us that in the end times there will be two witnesses
in the streets of Jerusalem. Every theologian I know, believes it is Moses
and Elijah.
"Now if this is the end times, where are the two witnesses? Wouldn't
Elijah be in Israel now?
"Now lets look at it from another perspective. It was 20 years ago when I
received a Word from God and purchased that painting. Twenty is the number
of Redemption, and it cost 10 Shekels, and 10 is the number of Testimony, so
in just the cost and time factor, we have a testimony of Redemption. When we
add the 20 and 10 we have 30, the Number of Blood, so we are talking about
the Testimony of the Redemption of Yeshua, who shed His blood for our sins.
Glory to God, you see when God does something it is always perfect, anyway
you look at it. I have looked at this event very closely. One thing I am
certain of, God is saying something here. We need to listen."
[Al Cuppett] "...Later in May I saw Jerry Golden's painting drawn in
Jerusalem in about 1980. By the witness of the Spirit to Jerry then, and
through those 20 years, how Elijah would look in 1999. And I also read
Jerry's testimony concerning that painting. In Jerusalem, in June, I also
met Jerry and his wife, Connie, and his son Joel, as they ate one of two
Sabbath dinners with me, which I also had a chance to eat with Elijah.
Furthermore, now in July of 1999, I can attest that the 1980 painting, is
that of the man I met in February and also in June. In addition to the other
traits, there is an unique indentation in his forehead that positively
identifies him by Jerry Golden's 1980 portrait."
". . .Now, about one other thought. In numerics 6 means the nature of man.
Elijah today lives at #6 on a street over there and that 6 is number of man
and/or the nature of man. That's why he lives at house #6. This is the very
house that was rented back in July. Since I did not witness any of them
first hand I can't address the Elijah related incidence regarding (l.) the
demise of the mail tampering of the Bethlehem postmaster (2.) the record
drought in Cypress or (3.) the serious heart attack of a Rabbi who was
warned to treat black Jews equal or else. But, I can assure you this, I can
assure you this is the record 3 year drought in Israel. Elijah warned them
to do right in writing before it ever started. I saw his letters and I read
them. Israel shall heed the warnings soon, otherwise, they shall have to
vacate the land for lack of water. But, prophetic scripture never removes
them once they return as a nation in 1948. Therefore, they and the
Government of Israel shall heed and obey his words. The U. S. Jews better
escape to Israel soon." 3.
As opposed to "denominational ad nausium bible school theology and
eschatology," Al Cuppett and Jim Searcy advise "all the daughters and non
bible studiers" that we are at the END of the Tribulation rather than its
onset.
"Yep, I know the above opens a lot of questions for those who have sucked
upon the Church of God, Assemblies of God and the denominational ad nausium
bible school theology and eschatology. I know all about that. However for
all the daughters and non bible studiers the peace and security covenant was
signed on September 13, 1993 and broken on 13 of March, 1997. The antichrist
figure himself is already clandestinely calling the shots behind the scene
from the Brussels Beast Computer, which has a direct data commanding control
circuit to every head of state in the world except Israel. The direct death
and destruction by United Nations, apostates and forces can be witnessed by
the reason domestic policy death to the USA. As well as the killing field in
other places of the world and much more is on the way. This is all being
called from Brussels and is being carried out by our puppets here in
Washington. Furthermore, since 1973 the Israeli Government has thoroughly
and secretly excavated Solomon's Temple, directly under the Temple Mount and
right under the Moslems feet, 16 to 20 feet above. They have ferreted out a
secret chamber there and need not ever build a final temple as they have the
exact paving there where Solomon and the High Priest once walked. Sister
Serate [a Messianic prophetess] walked on it herself in 1996, October.
Regarding the time and the seasons that is numbers of the dates and times
that are set forth in the word of God, well they must all be shortened as
the Lord has reserved that right, to save the elect and almighty God shall
have to do so and is already doing it. That is to save us. As of July, 1999
we are on the very brink of global disaster. Prepare to meet thy God for you
shall soon meet him. And when you meet him you will recognize him as the
GREAT I AM, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST." 4.
