The Lord has revealed many things to me, many of which I do not speak of often, but are in reserve for the Glory of God. This particular one I want to share, and even though it may be controversial, I know someone will understand, and learn a Little more about the Lord Jesus Christ.

No person should assume they have come to the knowledge of ALL truth by just one revelation. The Holy Spirit is constantly revealing the mysteries of God, so until we have come into All Truth then we should consider any revelation just a special privilege for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. This is one:

When John came into the world preaching repentance, he was anointed by God, and chosen by God to preach the preparing of the way of the Lord. He was the one spoken about in the scripture when it was written that there will be heard a voice of one crying in the wilderness, PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD!! John was that prophet who the scriptures testified of, that he would come before the Messiah.

Indeed, John the Baptist was Elijah.

You might say, ''He said he was not Elijah,'' which is true, however John was speaking out of a carnal mouth. The testimony of Jesus is greater.

John was full of the Spirit of God from birth and from a young age up to his appearing he lived in the wilderness, and he came before the Messiah, Jesus Christ, to prepare the ground that Jesus would impart into.

Truly, John was Elijah, but the people could not tell. Why is this? It was because they were carnally minded, and for this same reason they killed Jesus Christ.

Elijah came before Jesus Christ, as it was written of him, but the world did not know him, because their deeds were evil, and they killed the very one they held in great esteem out of the scriptures. In the same way Jesus also suffered of them the same way.

Jesus, the Son of God came in carnal flesh, and they thought that he was not from heaven, because they were carnal men, who knew nothing of spiritual matters. So, the very Messiah they proclaimed to wait for, when he came, they did not know the time of their visitation. They killed the very one they held in high esteem out of the scriptures.

Anyone who ever killed the prophets of the Lord were killing his messengers because they did not know God, neither did they serve him as they said they did. Even today his messengers are killed because thy don't know him as they say they do, and they praise scripture more than Jesus Christ, which testifies of Jesus.

In the same way, the message of the gospel is STILL a mystery to many professing Christians. And for the same reason, the servants of the Lord are still killed, and will be killed till the Messiah returns in Glory. Anyone that can hear this should be hearing it!! May Jesus bless you.
