Bible Question:
Was John the Baptist Elijah? It clearly says in this verse that he claims not! But he baptised jesus! |
Bible Answer: Greetings Believer_1! You asked, "Was John the Baptist Elijah? It clearly says in this verse that he claims not! But he baptised jesus!" Please read Matthew 11:14: "And if you are willing to accept it, John himself is Elijah who was to come." Please also read Luke 1:17 and Matthew 17:10-13 which say that John came "in the spirit and power of Elijah" and compare Elijah's revival on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18) with John at the Jordan River (Matt. 3:5-6). After that, read Malachi 4:5-6 and then Matthew 11:14 and 17:12 again. And once you've finished, then read it all over again. Blessings to you, Makarios |
