abstract | - Eliyahu (Luthori: Elijah) is the central figure in Hosianism and a major prophet in Ahmadism. Most Hosian denominations consider him to be the Spirit of God and the Savior of mankind, and that he is currently in Hiding, to return at the end of Terra. Originally the High Priest of the Yeudish Church, Eliyahu was overthrown and exiled, and came to lead a small community of followers that was to become the Hosian Church. Yeudism rejects the belief that Eliyahu was the Biblical Spirit of God, and considers him a heretical High Priest. In Ahmadism, Eliyahu is considered one of God's (Akim's) important prophets and a bringer of scripture, but not the Spirit of God, nor presently in Hiding.
