Aurora, CO (WFN) -- Here's proof that God works in strange and mysterious ways: The messiah is a 7-foot-tall blonde guy who looks amazingly like "Baywatch" star David Hasselhoff.

That's the claim of Dr. Wendy Lockwood, a spiritual medium in Aurora, Colo., who says the messiah is named "Harjas," and recently appeared to her in a vision.

And what a vision he is. Based on her drawings, Harjas is a 7-foot-tall hunky guy who looks a cross between Hasselhoff and "American Idol 1" runner-up Justin Guarini and looks about 25 years old, even though he's actually a ripe old 79.

Currently, Harjas is laying low waiting for the right time to make an appearance.

Still, Lockwood says Harjas is planning to make himself public in the next few years in order to protect the planet from another so-called messiah named "Maitreya," who looks suspiciously like Osama bin Laden.

Lockwood's claims Harjas will be setting up his shop near Denver, Colo., which she claims is the "alter of the world."

But while he will certainly attract attention for his babelicious appearance, don't expect him to take advantage of his good looks.

As Lockwood puts it, "He won't be a celebrity. He refuses to be worshipped."
