Malachi 4:

5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the

coming of the great and dreadful day of the
LORD:
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the
children, and the heart of the children to their
fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a
curse.
1 King 17:
1. And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of
Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel
liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor
rain these years, but according to my word.
Mathew 17:10

10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then

say the scribes that Elias must first come?

11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias

truly shall first come, and restore all things.

14 This prophet, Elijah, we know very little about

him. But we know that he was God's servant, and
the servant of God for that hour.
15 And God has used His Spirit that was upon Elijah,
already three times, and promises twice more; five
times, for grace. He used It upon Elijah; It came on
Elisha in a double portion; was on John the Baptist;
and supposed to come just to issue in the Gentile
Bride; and come with Moses to take the Jews
home. That's right. Five times that God promises to
use the Spirit of Elijah, and already done it three
times.

119 Notice, first, Elijah was a man who loved the
wilderness. See? And John was a man in the
wilderness.
120 And Elijah was a man that condemned that
organizational system, in that day, with all he had.
So did John, "You generation of snakes. Who has
warned you to flee from the wrath? Don't you
begin to say, 'I have this, that, or the other.' God is
able of these stones to rise children to Abraham."
See the two natures?
121 And look at Elijah, he condemned all them
painted-faced Jezebels of his day, them immoral
women. What did John do? The same thing, to
Herodias. Both of them, was a cause of their death.

122 Look at Elijah, after he had done that great
work, he'd get moody, laid out there and
prayed for God to take him. John did the same,
even laid there and sent his disciples over, said,
"Go ask Him. Is He the One or do we look for
another?" Jesus knew that.
123 He was Elijah. That had to be his nature. He
was identified exactly as Elijah was. He was in
the spirit of Elijah.
124 Is to come five times, that spirit is, to be used:
Elijah, Elisha, John, Malachi 4, and then for the
Jews. The last days, we're in tonight, the spirit
of Elijah. Notice now.
 An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages - Chapter
Nine - The Laodicean Church Age
Before the coming of our Lord, Elijah must come back
for a work of restoration in the church. This is what
Malachi 4:5 says, "Behold I will send you Elijah the
prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful
day of the Lord; and he shall turn the heart of the
fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to
their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a
curse." There is absolutely no doubt that Elijah must
return before the coming of Jesus. He has a specific
work to accomplish. That work is the part of Malachi
4:6 that says "he will turn the hearts of the children to
their fathers". The reason that we know this is his
specific work to do at that time is because he has
already accomplished the part that says "he shall turn
the hearts of the fathers to the children," when the
Elijah ministry was here in John the Baptist.
cont...
Luke 1:17, "And he shall go before Him in the
Spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the
fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the
wisdom of the Just, to make ready a people
prepared for the Lord." In the ministry of John the
"hearts of the fathers were turned to the children".
We know that because Jesus said so. But it does not
say that the hearts of the children were turned to
the fathers. That is yet to take place. The hearts of
the last day children will be turned back to the
Pentecostal fathers. John got the fathers ready for
Jesus to welcome the children into the fold. Now
this prophet upon whom the Spirit of Elijah falls
will prepare the children to welcome back Jesus.

243 So now we are invited into Him, to be partakers of all
that He is. We're invited into Him, which is hid to
unbelievers, by the veil of human flesh. See? They
know that Glory, they read of It, It's in the Word here,
"the Glory of God" and things like that, it's just a word
to them. To us, it's a manifestation! See? It is no more a
word; it's a reality! Amen!

244 God said, "Let there be light," that was the word. But
now there is light. It ain't the word; it's the light. See
what I mean?

245 Now it isn't just a written Word to us, it's a reality. We

are in Him. Now we're enjoying. Now we behold Him.
Now we see Him, the Word, manifesting Himself. It's
hid, out there, because (why?) It's veiled in human
flesh. See?
