Greetings Firerob! The reference you are looking for is Mal. 4:5-6: "‘‘See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of the LORD comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse.”" The following New Testament references say that John the Baptist was the fulfillment of this prophecy. 1) Mt. 11:14 - "And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come." 2) Mt. 17:10 - "The disciples asked him, ‘‘Why then do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?” 11 Jesus replied, ‘‘To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things. 12 But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.”" 3) Mark 9:11 - "And they asked him, ‘‘Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?” 12 Jesus replied, ‘‘To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer much and be rejected? 13 But I tell you, Elijah has come, and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”" 4) Luke 1:17 - "And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”" I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
