Official Website Of The Church Of Christ With The Elijah Message
We are the Church of Christ with The Elijah Message and we proclaim the Midnight Cry spoken of in Matthew
chapter 25. Our Church has been established of God to proclaim the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and
to warn the world that the second coming of Christ is near at hand. We are a world Church with local churches
throughout the United States, Europe, Africa, India, and the Philippines. We claim the same Holy Priesthood
Authority as the old Jerusalem Church of the new testament. We proclaim to the world that the promised Elias
has come as the Lord has promised according to Malachi 3:1.
We find the following In Malachi 3:1-4:
He has come as Christ said he would, "Elias shall truly first come, and restore all things" (Matt. 17:11).
"Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secrets unto his servants the prophets."
(Amos 3:7).
"And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto
them that dwell on earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people." (Rev. 14:6).
"And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done." (Rev. 22:6).
The Lord has spoken and revealed His purpose by the mouth of His servant John "The Baptist" (Resurrected).
He is the promised Elias that has come as Christ said he would. John "The Baptist" (Resurrected) has come!!
He has brought 155 messages from the Lord God. These messages are contained in a book "The Word of The
Lord (brought to Mankind by an Angel)". Request your FREE copy today.

Message 155
The Messenger of the Lord, the Elijah, appeared in my home on August 14th, 2025 at 11:55am. He greeted me as he came up the steps to my living room and handed me a tablet from among things I had scattered upon my sofa and told me that God had heard the needs and prayer of many and has once again spoken to give solace and understanding unto the Church and ministry. I had been praying deeply for a way to help our sister Neva with the loss of her husband in the Philippines. For many days I had been grieving, along with most of the Church. When he finished giving me the Message we spoke for a short time as Brothers and his counsel gave me much peace. He was with me for slightly over and hour. The following is the Message.
-- Norman D. Lyles
1) Behold, leave thy sorrow and take the Message the Lord has sent unto thee. I am the Elijah, messenger of the highest, resurrected to finish my work for which I was born. I bring unto all a Message from the throne of God.
2) Hear what the Lord will speak: “I speak peace unto the people of the covenant. Who will hear and who will rejoice in the Will and Plan of the Lord? Mercy and truth are met together, righteousness has looked down from heaven and the Lord shall give that which is good. Know that the Lord saveth His anointed.”
3) In His mercy He has called Bishop Norris Purifoy home. Norris Purifoy is among the anointed of the Lord, and His reward is sure; he has run his race with dignity and honor. The way of God is perfect.
4) The work of Apostle Robert Beck and Bishop Norris Purifoy has been noted and is pleasing unto the Lord. Let those in the Philippines demonstrate honor and respect unto the Brothers who have given so much of themselves to heal the work in the Philippines; by following through with the teachings of the brothers and laboring in unity among themselves.
5) Let those who will and have chosen to walk in the Lord, take heart for the Lord thy God has prepared a place for thee. Remain steadfast and true unto the statutes of thy Lord.
6) Unto those who’s labor has brought forth fruit in Alabama and Mississippi; know ye the Lord is well pleased and shall write of thy efforts and work in heaven.
7) The Lord has opened the gates of Canada unto His Word, yet ye must move with haste. Why linger at the gate? What more must be said?
8) The Lord has placed two of His Apostles in the field, because He knows the needs of the people. Let not their hands be slack; for now the harvest is prepared.
9) The Lord knoweth His directions to Apostle Fredrick Mikangi. He will not caution him again. Nothing is impossible when the Lord has commanded it to be so.
10) Let Jacob Staley take up his calling as a Bishop and his brothers labor in unity and with one mind, one purpose, and let none be above another, meeting monthly to fulfill thy calling.
11) The Lord is well pleased with the work of handmaiden Barbra Hamilton. Let those who labor in her area, know the Lord will bless that area soon with another local in America.
12) The Work of Apostle George Madambe is pleasing in the sight of the Lord; let him be uplifted and encouraged.
13) The hearts of the humble will hear the call of the Lord. If the children of the Lord take heed to their way, to walk before Christ in truth with all their heart and all their soul; the Lord thy God will anoint thee with power from on high. Now is the hour, now is time to stand steadfast in the Lord and His Word.
14) With Christ is wisdom and strength; in Christ is counsel and understanding; therefore, wash yourself in repentance, seeking to have Him draw near unto thee. Ye who seek guidance to plan that which you’ve been commanded to do; come forward unto the Lord, and put away the planning and ideas of man and open thy heart and ear unto the Lord. So, it shall be unto all who have been told to carry His Gospel unto the nations.
15) Have ye heard the secrets of God? Do ye understand that which we know not? What can you understand of that which is not in us? It is the folly of men who seek their own counsel and do not humble themselves before the Creator of all things. Let the Church, those who are called to lead, put away the plans and ideas of man and instead seek ye the counsel of the Lord Jesus Christ: who has sent His Messenger unto cleanse and purify His ministry. He has placed before you in His Words: in the Record of Nephites, the Bible, and the Word of the Lord; who speaks yet today, with His guidance and His Will. Follow through with all the Lord has taught and commanded and you shall know the blessings of God.
16) Remember God has chosen men to carry this work forward, keep sacred thy calling. Keep your responsibility unto the flock and remember God is Just.
17) I have come at the Lord’s direction and commandment. I am the Elijah, born for this purpose and shall be with the Lord when He returns in all His glory. I shall come again as the Lord commands. Give praise unto the Lord Jesus Christ for His Mercy and His love. Amen.
