Some have taken on faith that God's apostle is the final Elijah. Some have doubts. Some reject the belief. My new book, America's Greatest Prophet: The Endtime Elijah--Herbert W. Armstrong, proves why no one else can be this messenger (whom God promised to send in Malachi 4:4-6). Americans should remember that Christ said that no prophet is accepted in his own country. Therefore it is harder for them to recognize a genuine U.S.-born prophet of God. Here is the plain truth of the matter. The first chapter, list of contents and details for ordering can be seen at http://hwa-elijah.4t.com. Snail-mail orders (with $50 or £50) can be sent to the address below. Geoffrey R.
