Spirit and Power of Elias (Luk 1) (Mal 4)
SPIRIT AND POWER OF ELIAS - turning the heart of the fathers to the children
and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just
ELIAS IS ONE - but could it mean TWO?????
(Luk 1:11) And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing
on the right side of the altar of incense.
(Luk 1:12) And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
(Luk 1:13) But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy
prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and
thou shalt call his name John.
(Luk 1:14) And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall
rejoice at his birth.
(Luk 1:15) For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall
drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the
Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
(Luk 1:16) And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the
Lord their God.
(Luk 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.
(Luk 1:18) And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know
this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
(Luk 1:19) And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that
stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to
shew thee these glad tidings.
(Mal 4:5) Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the
coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
(Mal 4:6) 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.
