Sign #13 - I Will Send My Messengers To Prepare the Way

Before the Lord came in the Meridian of Time, Two Thousand years ago, He sent His Messenger before Him to prepare the way.

This Messenger at that time was John the Baptist.  He taught that the Lord would be coming and told everyone to Repent of their Sins and be baptized.

Before the Second Coming of the Lord, He sent another Messenger to Prepare the Way. 

He Did That.  He sent the Prophet Joseph Smith to RESTORE the Gospel and also to tell the people to Repent and be baptized, like John did. 

The Lord sending Messengers before Him is recorded in:

MALACHI 3: 1-6

1 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.

 

2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:

 

(Read up on what happens in the Refiners Fire and what Fullers' soap does with impurities in Gold and Silver and you will know what is going to happen to the people alive at that time.)

 

3 And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.

 

4 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in former years.

 

5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts.

 

6 For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

 

The fulfilment of these ancient predictions Have Been Completed.

 

The GOSPEL ITSELF is also a Messenger preparing the way before the Face of the Lord.  IT IS NOW HERE!

 

DOCTRINE and COVENANTS 45: 9

 

9 And even so I have sent mine everlasting covenant into the world, (THE RESTORED GOSPEL) to be a light to the world, and to be a standard for my people, and for the Gentiles to seek to it, and to be a messenger before my face to prepare the way before me.
