I just  read from the website "Behold the Beast". WOW!!  I do believe this guy claims to be the Messenger of Malachi 3:1 using numbers [gematria].  Since I'm not into all that math, I won't repeat the numbers.

 

Malachi 3:1 [KJV] "Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts."   

 

This guy is of the Islamic religion and says all religions will be combined into that one. Many are saying there should be only one religion, even Christians.

I [jfh] believe that John the Baptist was the Messenger and Jesus was the Message.

 

Jesus did suddenly come to the temple when he was twelve years of age.

 

Luke 2:42 "when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast."  

 

And he wowed them all with his knowledge of the Scripture. It was prophesied by Malachi and fullfilled by Jesus and told by Luke.

 

John later came out of the wilderness and preached repentance.  After he was decapitated Jesus proceeded with the message and was crucified.  They were the two witnesses that poured out the golden oil [Holy Spirit] of Zachariah's golden candlesticks. John was filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb, and, of course, Jesus was the Holy Spirit.

 

Zech. 4:12 [KJV] "What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?"

 

Well, all my calculations have come and gone.  How 'bout yours?  I'm going to start believing that "no one will know the day or the hour" just like Jesus said.  I'm going to keep watching and keep my "Eyes turned upon Jesus and looking full in his wonderful face" 'til he comes again.  He promised and I believe.

 

May God Bless, jfh
