♦-1-♦
The greatest General, our Lord Jesus,
Has Ne’er lost a war.
Indeed, He will triumphantly lead us,
If we Him implore.
♦-Refrain-♦
Behold, I’ll send my messenger to you,
He will show all the signposts.
And then I’ll come near you to Judgment,
Saith the Lord of Hosts.
♦-2-♦
The great and dreadful day cometh quickly,
All the wicked burn.
The Sun of Righteousness cometh swiftly.
To claim His firstborn.
♦-3-♦
The Lord sends Elijah, we are bidden,
All things to restore.
He’ll turn the hearts of fathers and children,
Spark the love of yore.
2TG31: 4.1; Series page: 423
Here the Scriptures point out that someone in the spirit and power of Elijah the prophet is first to appear, and will not only prepare the way, but will also restore all things. Plainly, the message of Elijah shall restore all things in the great and dreadful day of the Lord, the day of restitution, the day the Lord comes to His temple, the Church. The spirit of Elijah was a spirit against idolatry, and his power was a power to destroy those who led in idolatry, and to bring about purity.
