HOW LONG HALT YE BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS?
IF THE LORD BE GOD, FOLLOW HIM:
“I am he: before me there was no God formed,
neither shall there be after me.”
Isaiah 43:10
“Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer,
and he that formed thee from the womb,
I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone;
that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;”
Isaiah 44:24
“Put me in remembrance: let us plead together:
declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.”
Isaiah 43:26
The title is straight out of the book of I Kings 18th Chapter that addresses worship of the CREATOR that formed this Universe. I love this chapter on GOD’s Prophet Elijah, as he dramatically and sensationally proves that ONLY his GOD of Israel is the ONE True and Living GOD. For that reason I have read this Chapter at least twenty or more times. Actually I love all the passages on GOD’s Prophet Elijah. Given what’s written, we can all learn something and can grow strong in GOD’s TRUTH from every book that makes mention of him. It is Elijah who can inspire people to seek the MOST HIGH GOD to know HIM and want to worship HIM and live according to HIS WAYS.
Many people have heard of Elijah but know very little about him. Yes, he was GOD’s Prophet, but he was also so much more than that. Moses was a distinguished Prophet and Servant of GOD, as well, and we learn from him that the CREATOR GOD of Israel wrote a most enthralling Book of the Law for him to teach to the Children of Israel. And Moses won’t let us forget his many encounters with the HOLY ONE and HIS WONDEROUS WORKS, but still I am fascinated with Elijah’s devotion to the GOD of Israel and GOD’s WORKS with HIS Prophet.
Many decades ago when I had first come into the knowledge of the CREATOR GOD of Israel and HIS WAYS of Righteousness, I told everyone I knew that Black People are GOD’s Chosen People – the Children of Israel, and that the GOD of Israel is the True GOD. I even went so far as to ask a Christian co-worker if she would agree to the challenge that Elijah had done with the Prophets of the false god, Baal. I admit I was nervous, but I believed in the GOD of Israel and trusted in HIM that HE would not fail me. Whether it was for good reason or not, but the co-worker would not agree to my challenge. But as far as I was concerned, when she rejected my proposal, she hindered my opportunity to EXALT the CREATOR GOD and HIS Holy Name. Surely this should always be the objective of all GOD’s Covenant People, which is to show forth HIS PRAISE.
GOD of Israel made an EVERLASTING COVENANT with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and their SEED. What Christians refuse to accept is that JC was never a consideration in this PROMISE. GOD never surnamed JC as HE had done with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
“The LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.” Genesis 15:1
“And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I AM THE ALMIGHTY GOD; WALK BEFORE ME, AND BE THOU PERFECT. And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, AS FOR ME, BEHOLD, MY COVENANT IS WITH THEE, AND THOU SHALT BE A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. And I WILL ESTABLISH MY COVENANT BETWEEN ME AND THEE AND THY SEED AFTER THEE IN THEIR GENERATIONS FOR AN EVERLASTING COVENANT, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.” Genesis 17:1 – 7 (Gen. 17:19; Gen. 32:28)
“Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, WHICH HE MADE WITH YOU, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee. FOR THE LORD THY GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE, EVEN A JEALOUS GOD. When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke him to anger: I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.” Deuteronomy 4:23 – 26
I cannot stress enough that it was the Powers of Rome who rejected the GOD of Israel and sought another god. Hence, they invented JC, which is very much against GOD’s First Commandment: “Thou shalt have no other gods before ME”. Yet, people disregarded GOD’s ORDER and prefered to choose the god of the White Supremacist Romans. Those who have made this decision to forsake GOD for a mere man that was imagined by men, nonetheless, have been judged, and this toll on all who worship this White blue-eyed man-god has been deadly.
The fact that GOD of Israel did not mention JC by name and did not change his name is a dead giveaway that JC has no connection and never had any connection with the GOD of Israel or with the Children of Israel. And for those who are in the dark, please know that at the time of this birth of JC and “Christian Era”, the “Lost Sheep of the House of Israel” to whom JC said he was sent had long since be exiled from the Land some 400 years before his “Coming”. Hence, there is no reason to believe the “New Testament” writings or anything that gives JC power and that makes him a god. JC should have known that GOD’s Kingdom was NOT nigh especially because not one of GOD’s Prophets provided visions for the writings of the “New Testament”! In other words, there is no “Thus Saith the LORD” in the Christian Testament. One can only guess who wrote this book.
Unfortunately, there are too many testimonials about people who have died waiting on JC, believing that he would heal them and keep them safe, but countless times that failed to happen. Instead, they perished, just as GOD had said would happen to all who worshipped another god. And what’s worse Black People continue to worship JC without getting anything in return. JC is proved to be a farce and a grave disappointment, and yet the people who are afflicted and oppressed the most are the very ones who continue to believe in him.
There is nothing new about my words in this Message. These are the same sentiments the CREATOR GOD used to warn HIS Beloved Covenant People against serving and worshipping all other gods and against rejecting HIS Book of the Law. We are Commanded not to add to GOD’s LAWS of Righteousness (Deut. 12:32), therefore, Christianity and this “New Testament” are forbidden for Israelites.
“Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons; Specially the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I WILL MAKE THEM HEAR MY WORDS, THAT THEY MAY LEARN TO FEAR ME all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.” Deuteronomy 4:9,10
“Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire: Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,” Deuteronomy 4:15,16
“It shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that YE SHALL SURELY PERISH. As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God.” Deuteronomy 8:19,20
“Woe unto him that striveth with his MAKER!” Isaiah 45:9
Where is there any wisdom in defying OUR MAKER – the CREATOR GOD that Commands that we worship ONLY HIM? Where is there any wisdom in ignoring this GOD that has left HIS WORD telling us that we will die if we forsake HIM for another god? Where is there any wisdom in worshipping JC or any reason to believe in him?
GOD’s common denominator is that we worship HIM ALONE and live according to HIS Laws, Statute, and Judgments “for as long as we live”, for this WAY of Life enables us to live according to HIS WAYS of Righteousness that reflect HIS IMAGE. But who is paying attention to the fact that the Rulers of this present White Supremacist World Order changed ALL GOD’s ORDINANCES expressly so that Peoples, Nations, and tongues will be in the DARK and forget the CREATOR, HIS Book of the Law, and HIS Covenant with the Children of Israel!
“The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because THEY HAVE TRANSGRESSED THE LAWS, CHANGED THE ORDINANCE, BROKEN THE EVERLASTING COVENANT.” Isaiah 24:4,5
In that there are 37 million Churches in the World, 34,000+ Christian denominations, and well over 2 billion Christians, one would think that this White-Christian World Order would be perfect and righteous in every respect. However, that is not the case. This World is Hell, and there is no peace anywhere – only despair, misery, corruption, and hypocrisy. And most of all I want people to realize that there is no JC, either, that is available to save Christians out of these troubles.
GOD IS SERIOUS ABOUT WORSHIP OF ONLY HIM AS WE WILL SOON SEE
During these days of GLOOM and DOOM, there is ONLY the CREATOR GOD available to help us. And if anyone believes otherwise, consider HIS WORDS to the Children of Israel after they had turned to other gods for help.
“For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left. And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted, Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.” Deuteronomy 32:36 - 38
THEREFORE, KNOW THAT TRULY THE CREATOR GOD IS “ONE GOD”, AND HE COMMANDS WORSHIP OF HIM ALONE
“Hear, O Israel: The LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.” Deuteronomy 6:4,5
“Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, from the nations and their gods? For thou hast confirmed to thyself thy people Israel to be a people unto thee for ever: and thou, LORD, art become their God.” II Samuel 7:22 - 24
“Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as do thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have builded, is called by thy name.” I Kings 8:43 (Isaiah 56:6-8)
“If thy people…sin against thee, (for there is no man that sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near; Yet if they shall bethink themselves in the land whither they were carried captives, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captives, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness; AND SO RETURN UNTO THEE WITH ALL THEIR HEART, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name: Then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling place, and maintain their cause,” I Kings 8:44,46 - 49
King David, King Solomon, and the Prophet Elijah served GOD’s People, the Children of Israel, well. All of them made every effort to encourage the Children of Israel to know GOD, keep HIS Charge to live and do HIS Book of the Law, and to PRAY ONLY TO HIM. They all knew that the GOD of Israel would only be with them if they were obedient to HIM and would abandon false gods. They also knew that the CREATOR GOD of Israel speaks of HIS Holy Name, and that it has no connection with JC.
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
“The LORD of hosts is with us; THE GOD OF JACOB IS OUR REFUGE. Selah.
“BE STILL, AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD: I will be exalted among the heathen, I WILL BE EXALTED IN THE EARTH.” Psalm 46:1,7,10
This is true, and because these days in which we live are cloudy and dark and filled with trauma, stress, horrific news about covid, death, unemployment, and despair, we need the CREATOR GOD to hear our prayers. Please know that HE will, but we must first have HIM in our hearts and call upon HIM. The CREATOR GOD of Israel does not answer to those who call upon another god. And the Prophet Elijah proves it. If you have not read Elijah’s fearless approach to the 850 idol worshipping prophets of Baal (a false god), then read the following passage and see how GOD of Israel has made him a most outstanding Prophet:
TAKE NOTE THAT WHEN ELIJAH PROVED THAT GOD OF ISRAEL IS THE ONE TRUE GOD TO FOLLOW, HE ALSO PROVED THAT JC IS A FRAUD
NO DOUBT THE GREATEST ACCOUNT OF GOD’s PROPHET ELIJAH:
“Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? IF THE LORD BE GOD, FOLLOW HIM: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.” I Kings 18:21
“Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:
And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.
And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under.
And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.
And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.
And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.
And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.
And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:
And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.
And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.
And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.
And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.
Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.
Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
AND WHEN ALL THE PEOPLE SAW IT, THEY FELL ON THEIR FACES: AND THEY SAID, THE LORD, HE IS THE GOD; THE LORD, HE IS THE GOD.”
I Kings 18:17,22 – 39

THANK GOD FOR MAKING ELIJAH HIS PROPHET FOR PROVING WE HAVE BUT ONE GOD, AND THANK GOD IT IS THIS PROPHET WHO WILL RETURN AND NOT JC (Malachi 4:5)
“FOR I AM THE LORD THY GOD, THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL, THY SAVIOUR: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
“Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I AM HE: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.” Isaiah 43:3,10,11
“Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I KNOW NOT ANY.” Isaiah 44:8
“For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I AM THE LORD, AND THERE IS NONE ELSE. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I THE LORD DO ALL THESE THINGS. Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.” Isaiah 45:4 – 8
If the CREATOR that has formed this Universe and all things therein said there is no saviour beside HIM, and that HE does not know of another god, then how can people in good conscience worship and believe in JC or any other god? Of greater import, where is it written that the CREATOR GOD nominated JC to be HIS “Son” or even a god? If we cannot find GOD’s WORD initiating JC the “Son of God”, a “Saviour of the World”, and a “Man of Peace”, how can we believe this scam? And how can Christians pray to him and pray in JC’s name when the CREATOR never interacted with him in the presence of the Children of Israel for that purpose?
I will forever highlight the WORKS of OUR GOD of Israel, as it is engrained in my heart and soul to do so. I have every reason to believe in this GOD for HE is the CREATOR that called Abram out of Ur (Ancient Iraq/Sumeria) changed his name to Abraham and made HIMSELF known to him and to his SEED, that Delivered the Israelites out of Egypt, that wandered with HIS Beloved Covenant People 40 years in the Wilderness, that led them into Canaan Land, and that fought the Canaanites in order that HE would keep HIS PROMISE to Abraham that his SEED would inherit the Land of Canaan “forever”. GOD’s presence with HIS People did not end when HE led the Children of Israel into Canaan. The CREATOR that named HIMSELF after HIS Beloved People made a point to live among them and keep them informed via HIS Prophets.
“Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:” Jeremiah 7:25
If we know about how loving and devoted OUR GOD of Israel was and still is to us, why would we turn from HIM to choose a god that has no track record? And why don’t people worship the GOD of Israel when we know that HE is the CREATOR that destroyed and continues to destroy the wicked who will not obey HIM and who will not WALK in HIS WAYS. If JC has a track record, where is it? Be true to yourself; if JC is a “God” and a “Man of Peace”, then why is it there is no peace on Earth?
Let’s stop allowing the White Powers-that-be to continue duping us into believing in the god they fabricated, for worship of him is our demise. Know for your own sakes that if JC were what he is cracked up to be he would be emulating the CREATOR GOD and HIS Servants - the Men of GOD like Moses, Elijah, and King David who commanded of his son Solomon to keep the CHARGE of GOD. For those who are not aware, know that GOD’s CHARE entails EXALTING and WORSHIPPING HIM and LIVING HIS LAWS of Righteousness.
“Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying, I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man; And KEEP THE CHARGE OF THE LORD THY GOD, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself:” I Kings 2:1 - 3
For all the above reasons, let us turn to the CREATOR GOD, the GOD of Abraham, Moses, King David, and Elijah for they proved perfectly that the MOST HIGH is ONE GOD, and that there is NONE ELSE. Therefore, do not allow anyone to deceive you but rather rely on what GOD told Abraham: “I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward”, and rely on the evidence that Elijah used to prove that “THE LORD, HE IS THE GOD; THE LORD, HE IS THE GOD”.
“PUT ME IN REMEMBRANCE:
let us plead together:
declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.”
Isaiah 43:26
“Remember ye the law of Moses my servant,
which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel,
with the statutes and judgments.”
Malachi 4:4
