The Time of the End

  • SIGNED Hardcover
  • New York: Vantage Press, 1983
By Elijah the Prophet
New York: Vantage Press, 1983. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition inscribed by author. Very scarce. Elijah the Prophet is a mysterious figure who, according to the biographical information on the book jacket, was the director of the Church of Jesus, Inc. An internet search yields no information either about Elijah the Prophet or the Church of Jesus, Inc. The book jacket claims that "The prophet has traveled to the Middle east and spoken around the world via his ham radio station WA2NKY. He was also an independent candidate for the office of president of the United States in 1980." Again, the internet did not provide evidence of this campaign. The book's contents deal with the end of time as envisioned in the Book of Revelations, and how to prepare for it. This is a very interesting historical artifact for the student of unusual religions, or for a former member of the Church of Jesus, Inc.
