404the <strong>TRUTH</strong>, the whole <strong>TRUTH</strong>, and nothing but the <strong>TRUTH</strong>And in Revelation 3 when Jesus says to our church, “be zealous and repent” it is agood question to ask, “repent of what sins?” This is why the Testimonies were given.So when we read in the Bible of men calling others to repent, we understand that thecall to repentance involved instruction on how to live. Both Paul and John the Baptistmentioned “works meet for repentance.” Ac 26:20; Lu 3:8.So I was very interested at the added word (capitalization in the original) “just” givento persons commissioned to share the spirit’s messages. <strong>The</strong>re is just somethingstrange about adding the word “just” in a place where it doesn’t belong, in a placewhere it changes a summary into a contradiction.He goes quickly to Brother and Sister M, places His hands on theirhead and says, “Go and JUST tell them to REPENT.”Elijah’s Message<strong>The</strong> angel also refers to the Elijah message. What is most interesting about this is thatthe angel speaks in Greek. Ernie, presumably not knowing Greek, asks the angel tospell the word. <strong>The</strong> angel spells, in English characters, a transliteration of a Greekword.I don’t mean to be too technical, but something is really wrong here. Greek has anumber of characters that do not have a one-for-one correspondence to Englishcharacters. So when I want to type in Greek I have to adjust my thinking. Sometimes“j” and “h” and “q” and “v” are redefined (Greek doesn’t have those characters, anddifferent Greek fonts use different keys for the unparallel characters) to representother sounds.<strong>The</strong> angel says that Ernie and the faithful are, together “Hliva.”Now you can search all day with the best resources you can find in your Biblereference works and you will never find this word. But do not worry. <strong>The</strong>re is ahyperlink on the website to another site that has this very word for Elijah.Here is the problem. <strong>The</strong> “H” is a capital vowel with the sound of a long “A” and the“v” is a substitute character that, when typed in Greek, looks like an “s.” And for thatmatter, it is “s” – sigma. And the “va” is a typo 4 on the website – it should be “av.” 5How would an accurate transliteration of the Greek be spelled in English characters?Not “Hliva” but “Aye-lee-as” or “Elias” as it is found in scripture.Would an angel copy a font goof from a Greek website when spelling to a prophet aGreek word?<strong>The</strong> HeraldAnother writer has observed the anomaly of the angel visitor being called “theHerald.” As this point doesn’t strike me with the force it does him, I will not spendmuch time on it. But his point is that angels, throughout scripture, are without titles.4 I can’t really say this. Probably, more accurately, the website has vowel markings andfailed to supply a font that would read the characters, so the result is neither Greek norEnglish.5 Elias, in Greek, usually appears in the accusative, sounding more like Elian.
