Elijah Initiative (I)
‘More than a historic past investigation, a call to the future now.’
The book of Malachi is the last book in the Old Testament. The last two verses of this last book prior to the New Testament talks about a past prophet Elijah who was no longer living on earth but may return: “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.” How is that possible that Elijah would return if he was already dead or had ascended to heaven? Why write that? We know Elijah was referenced earlier in the Old Testament book of Chronicles (which was written decades before Malachi after he disappeared), so was it prophesied about someone rising from the grave into the future? Was he the designated messiah to come that was speculated about within Jewish belief groups? Well, regarding this; the Pharisees, the Sadducees, the Jews, even Jesus had to take time to explore and address this same prophetic concept.
Jesus brought this up on several occasions by saying ‘to those with ears willing to hear, John the Baptist is Elijah,’ not to mention also explaining this concept further through himself, when implying he could be the son of David even if born centuries after him. What does this mean?
It means not everything in life is an exact literal interpretation or we close ourselves off to additional meanings and requirements. John the Baptist was alive, Elijah wasn’t, yet John was in the prophetic role of the Elijah call not as a reincarnate but a completely separate individual. The prophetic word requires an interpretation to take on a call for the sake of God’s will to be carried out each age. Paul said, ‘who’s the debater of this age,’ who’s appointed to step up into a role to get something done?
Sometimes we don’t understand slang, sometimes we don’t understand a joke or what the other person is trying to get through to you. The bible also requires we see the meaning behind the material, even if it challenges us to put together words and expressions hard to contextualize and generalize into instruction. Both phrases and words can have duel meanings, sometimes we have to dig deeper and not be complacent, especially given we are called to try harder than the people that were unwilling to learn parables. Some of the rhetoric within the bible requires additional effort, to see that belief is a free gift of better ongoing living and this additional component implies we are to value the meaning of life and acknowledge that God revealed enough things for us to balance the knowledge and lives we are living. There are more complex elements revealed to us, such as a predestination control element of God over us in our lives, a conversation that is often difficult for people to accept or biblically review but nothing is that simple is it? It’s not all easy, but when passages at times reference and use symbolic words, we are supposed to see and acknowledge different angles and paraphrases and see cycles.
While the prophetic word of the gospel is designated to be a useful tool for teaching, reproof, training in righteousness, and a source of historic reminder of mankind’s various states of progression control and development, we need to also acknowledge that requirements can always be alive into future prophecy objective tasks to carry out. John said, ‘I’m the one in the wilderness out to make straight the paths of the Lord,’ and it was written about me in Isaiah – here I’ll point to an exact verse that was about me before I was born. Jesus had to reference himself as the Christ as well at times, especially after he was resurrected when he ‘told them about all the scriptures written beforehand about himself.’ The living word of God needs to not just be a dead practice to this extra effort or call, or the scrutiny of this lack could hurt the integrity of the belief in this day and age after many years have passed with less urgency. At times in the Old Testament God no longer was pleased in His believers, saying ‘I no longer take pleasure in your assemblies and your burnt offerings and ways are just carrying out ‘doctrines of men,’’ implying we can’t just settle on current ways.
Everything that is founded from the sacred ancient gospel, that has passed on influentially through the generations up to this point, requires an ongoing comprehension component. All material takes time to soak in, many verses are not discerned unanimously immediately, and different styles take time and effort to learn - we are supposed to acknowledge everything within it. This includes the call of prophet still part of prophetic cycle, even out to this age as something we can’t dismiss (even if Revelations says no more words will ever be added to the book).
But prophecy is all fulfilled and past gone behind us already correct? If Elijah already came as a spiritual being example similar to John with John now a separate person become designated as the modern-day person excepting a further biblical role to carryout, this is all surely fulfilled and irrelevant to us right? We know the role was designated to John the cousin of Jesus with some additional magnification. His dad, prior to John’s birth, spoke with an angel of the Lord before the pregnancy and was muted to even question this belief to be fulfilled in their time, that his son was to be a messenger for the Lord. The Elijah initiative may be a real tangible thing in the time before the end, yet again. Let’s first look at some connecting verses, that don’t allow us to disbelieve this notion, that we will eventually connect to the Revelation prophets.
Instead of going back to Chronicles to go over the miracles of Elijah, lets jump up to the New Testament book of James that talks about one of the feats of Elijah. This is what it says, ‘The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. Elijah was man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit.’ This feat of Elijah is a task also referenced in Revelations to be initiated by two prophets. Sure, Malachi fulfillment regarding this is already a satisfied requirement that has been met, both Jesus and John’s testimony made it clear Elijah did return if you are willing to open the material up, but speculation today about this type of scenario needs to not be complacent with unspecific reference, resolve, or side-about explanations. It needs to be addressed as a real-life task with objectives to be done that will help to satisfy and ease the remaining voids left in this long-standing book of the gospel in a far different era and time.
The prophetic cycle to look out for, especially comes from Revelations, which is a vision about various things playing out before the very end. Specifically, there are 3 woes and the end has come. Woe two requires and isn’t completed until two prophets carry out some specific tasks, to measure the church practice, with some similarities to objectives of Elijah who prayed fervently for no rain and it didn’t for 3.5 years until he prayed otherwise. Different times have different transparency, whether isolation and physical captivity they went through during the past, a different general public, to connectivity now-a-days from technology, the prophets back then stood out if the crowds could hold them to the title of prophet. That title is far suppressed to common terms and titles in the church and the feats of Elijah and Elisha and Enoch required a less exposed scenario to all people – in this age, without using connectivity to test the prophecy with many other capable people whether saint or prophet (saint probably doesn’t speak further analogue in a class but an equal believer) is the more probable route (praying with numbers in or not in agreement but a statistic) than times of the past whether surviving in a cave and praying in solitude isolations (the stories of old were more peril - movie like at times - back then that maybe have helped with faith and God intervention who spoke more directly then up through the early Pentecost, unlike now when we are guided by the helper who was sent 40 days after Christ died – a voice of common reason) for things to happen in private. Some of the past prophets were lifted to heaven before death, or walked over puddles, or created food for a widow during a drought, doing literal miracles; but today we have a great numerical cloud of witnesses all able to see each other any place in the world and communicate further, so its possible for a greater amount of people to participate together for the tasks at hand to be carried out and tested.
I’ll underline some of the objectives of the two prophets’ responsibility out of Revelations 11 and how it ties to this construed coded call out to the future call of Elijah meant for prophetic recycle in each age. It says, ‘Rise and measure the temple of God and the altar and those who worship there, but do not measure the court outside the temple; leave that out, for it is given over to the nations, and they will trample the holy city for forty-two months..’ ‘And I will grant authority to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.’ It also says, ‘They have the power to shut the sky, that no rain may fall during the days of their prophesying.’ 1,260 days is the same duration as 3.5 years and 42 months. Besides as mentioned early Elijah praying fervently for 3.5 years of no rainfall, 3.5 is a reoccurring number; Jonah was captured in the belly of a whale for 3.5 days, Jesus wasn’t risen for 3.5 days representing the ‘sign of Jonah’ after he rose from the grave. These two witnesses are also killed and in 3.5 days rise to end the 2nd woe to an abbreviated time left during the 3rd woe tribulation of the earths end. The task of Elijah is part of Revelation direction about the end of times. Don’t worry the designated areas of no rainfall are already severe drought so things may not be as bad as it sounds to cause harm to any area of fruitful land. So, can we confirm the Elijah initiative is a real thing to address in the year 2022? I sure hope we do! Even within the vision we can be guided on the prayers regarding this out of the book of Zechariah, but that’s a bit too much information to dive into right now.
This isn’t a matter to be dismissed, it’s a process systematically intertwined within the gospel. We should remember that in our times we are dealing with the largest associated group practice in the history of existence (Religion: Christianity) that must be solid and true at some level given the mere numbers of participation, that when true, relies on its connected ongoing soundness to be a proven component within the contextual belief that it stands for. The Elijah constituent within the material is and always has been meant to be active within the God ordained outline and agenda, which unfortunately hasn’t always been the case. We must strive to be better, as people earning their eternity, we shouldn’t restrict the material but be cautious and open with its various realities that doesn’t leave much out. Prior to this age when publishing was just getting started back in the bible days after Jesus’s death, literary development was behind the modern future mind during slow or changing times in existence; people often missed additional interpretations as they didn’t see updated translations and or missed many notions of gospel initiative altogether. We’ve made some errors up to this point in teaching perhaps, but Daniel was right prophesying that in the last days understanding would increase, and it seems the practice has become something to recognize as a steadfast block of society for people, giving time, for doing good, giving money to charities and keeping people following the commandments and statues in remembrance of God and the future and the always hastening harvest at hand.
This is a prophecy test that is open and good with much more than just Elijah tasks, that will help to skillfully resolve the zeal of church prerogative often questioned, that will defend the total practice and give information that helps to ease and surpass any overwhelmed feelings of this operation being a threat to human treatment or progress in general. This allotted timeframe we are now in, this purpose at hand intended for the time at hand before us, helps us to further reveal things appropriately one way or the other, as testing leads to further progress pass, fail, or no grade. Part of this website is to help viewers soak in some of the initiatives and reasonability of the project. A test can pass or fail, but you can’t skip it to find out. What does the New Testament say regarding this, ‘do not despise prophecies, but test everything; hold fast what is good.’ Christ returns in the prophecy test window and hallelujah its been a long time coming and people suffering will be thankful, it's a pass! If he fails to return in the window, then we established a prophecy and pass it virtually even if it's a fail on the better eternity to immediately come optimism that says a generation should not pass after Jerusalem was surrounded by armies and we witnessed its destruction as foretold (an event to occur that did, prior to end of first earth at the immediate end).
Jesus brought this up on several occasions by saying ‘to those with ears willing to hear, John the Baptist is Elijah,’ not to mention also explaining this concept further through himself, when implying he could be the son of David even if born centuries after him. What does this mean?

What is a prophecy? Can it be defined in a particular way and effort? Does the bible require we further evaluate this right now? (II)
A prophecy is a future thing in the current time to carry out that is directed through biblical interpretation. Is a prophecy needed now though? Why create an additional reality and rationalization regarding this? Aren’t we supposed to die to the additional passions and desires of the world and let our lives be hidden in God with Christ? Is this too much of a thing to highlight, to make more of? Shouldn’t we have gotten the gist from the deeds of Elijah and the other prophets of the past, and our now new age maturity from history served to teach us to now rid ourselves of additional prophet tasks, but to let things finalize as is? Let the field with grass and weeds grow until the angel reapers separate us? Is not the practice already being tended to the degree needed, should we even change anything? Is it contrary to create a further prophetic operation anymore, to go further into interpretations of the word that could promote speculation more than proper stewardship and serving – aren’t we supposed to keep a righteous faith that doesn’t aim to isolate ourselves as ‘ones ascending or descending the Christ,’ but to instead carryout daily sound objectives as ‘we wait eagerly for the revealing of the sons and daughters of God?’ So why do this if things are in place and we can’t know the way the grass and weeds of the field grow until the very end that we don’t know the exact day and hour of? Because some passages need to be addressed (Skip to Olive Tree Analogy) for purposes of action that, if left unaddressed would otherwise feel neglected, given we are people aware of decisions pushed on us throughout the gospel, as people of resolve willing to serve. If belief is supposed to be the truest decision starting point of our existence and greater survival, then we shouldn’t take this lightly and let it pass without effort. From then to now, righteous people aren’t always saved as the criteria – which branch are you?
Hype? The gospel isn’t hype right? Or is it? (III)
Is the gospel a book of hype that expands directions more than our common reality decision making? Learn parables it says, learn symbolism, learn the extra belief component that involves sometimes tricky prophetic interpretations. How pinpoint is it really? Why is Jerusalem in Revelations ‘symbolically’ called ‘Sodom and Egypt,’ but Paul could correlate ‘present day Jerusalem’ in an ‘allegorical’ example of Hagar and Mount Sinai?’ Didn’t Jesus have to re-explain he meant ‘no I’m speaking of my body as the temple?’ It’s not too far-fetched for us to actualize a symbolic Jerusalem Zion holy place temple in the modern electronic age, that includes all denominations of believers across the world, as a word not just used to reference a literal area, but the home base reference dialect of categorized people that may not all live there.
With it tricky at times to understand, could it be hype how it gives examples and stresses heaven as the winning side victory, but the reality is it isn’t that different on the separation of the two worlds? Is it overblown, where it may harshly be read and interpreted that for not believing you will burn all eternity in the Lake of Fire but we come to find out the difference of heaven and hell is 24 ounces less of liquid a day as hells torment is really just overblown like the rest of the literature, not to mention sins and pleasure restrictions themselves are overblown as well? A gospel antagonist claiming it hype would say they don’t feel guilt for various sins in a cruel world with too much and too little time all bunched into the equation, I don’t need the extra self-control embrace as a holy teaching in my life!
Maybe subsequently the threats and defined ‘wisdom’ for fear of the Lord isn’t really a straightforward warning or true wisdom to begin with? Should the isolated miracle events within all the years of history up to this point in time also be diminished due to sparse coincidences that happened rarely along the way? Not very many miracles have happened regularly over the course of paperback history, that isn’t the most transparent type of revealing to us. To some it seems to be more of a tool used as a source of control to keep mankind in check, to keep us slightly more involved or entertained or busy thinking with or against each other, more so than as something representing sound bottom-line information. It creates material, viewpoints, wishful optimism - that’s it?!
It’s true we often prefer to generalize it un-specifically in some ways, but isn’t that ok then given everything it entails? We shouldn’t just defend miracles plain as day, or defend each sentence or we’d look off! Why bring up hell, are you going to make someone else mad? Doesn’t it sometimes, by creating additional standards of conduct, teach people to be more at enmity with each other, where believers alike have tendency to despise each other’s decisions and the criteria’s become unpleasant conversations given it says some things are sins for one and not for others, such as judgement between people doing errant behavior similarly (sin pointing), or for creating controversy regarding substances that enter the body and are expelled out of us, or examples when sometimes gospel direction seems wish washy like elder advice until you get 2-3 people to change his opinion or deal with shortened advice off simplistic teachings that leave you in an undesired state of asceticism - not factoring all things you go through.
It doesn’t always seem the most healthy or true decision in life, to be a servant and change life outlooks submissive to Christ, to really think people’s lives become changed with daily conversations with God, that it makes you happy or sad correct in better fashion, and that following its predicate is some gift to be enthralled over. Also why be cornered into the burden of religions association knowing the bible calls you out to be wish washy but the full crowd isn’t always accepting and there’s only so much praying and fasting you can do in a day. Any additional hardships that can stem from others within the crowd seems tough.
How is it real, to live different for a gospel, to take things for more than a grain of salt on some of its implications, if things were written so long ago in ways mentioned already that don't always translate into a truer reality than the world of gravity, science, and rules we see around us everyday? We save money for things in life, for our kids college, but does each thing we don’t buy really count towards our better stance and standing with Christianity?
The antagonist isn’t off or out of their minds to regard portions of gospel direction as over-inflated material; if they were to compare the bible to some standard policy manuals, they would argue that in effect man-made policies are more direct and effective on exact requirements, also better at side stepping unneeded information such as evaluation of additional morality eternal factors, that can hinder living liberties unlike policies more about making money and following procedures others do. Yet a believer can come to see directions to the masses isn’t always simple and it represents treating people good. Sometimes knowing the evils of the world help give comfort to its offer to live instead of perish. The gospel, regardless of our better wishful thinking, makes things life or death requiring us to believe and try. So hype, define hype, do you judge hype always as a prohibited aspect of existence? I like to think it’s sound good advice, that it gave proper direction at the grueling times of humanities development, that it gives hope and leaves nothing impossible, and gives more people viewpoints and ways to live.
It’s good to remember, if we are to live a zillion years in our future spirit bodies, the differences do matter (between two eternal areas of living) and the bible has told us things upfront in a way we should be responsive to, to accept with some urgency. An example why it’s urgency is part of our decision about the future: ‘Better to be thrown into the bottom of the ocean with a millstone tied to your neck, than to teach an innocent someone to sin,’ or ‘better to cut one hand off and enter heaven with one hand than go to hell with both hands.’ Maybe a hype factor within it doesn’t dull it, maybe it opens up more future than anything else out there, we are being conditioned with free decisions before us always ongoing, to be responsive to intricate life decisions as human beings with a conscious, so we must weigh the material and decision and recognize how to fit things into place properly with this all.
Some hype maybe, but a needed hype definitely. Okay Jesus just fed 5,000 from a loaf of bread after speaking to the crowd that followed his every move while healing them physically and spiritually, then later he walked on water and hovered and flew over the water before ascending into the clouds after rising from death, returning to heaven to watch a re-run clip of Moses parting the Red Sea seems as hyped information, thus believing isn't required – but don’t believe and follow its accord and you’re in jail. I guess the Creator does things however He wills, hype or not. Back then Jews were outnumbered or cornered by Egypt or Babylon or Old Testament Jews, but God delivered the people He choose. After Paul’s mystery of the gospel was revealed that all people Jew or Gentile were saved, it seems in the now during this astounding technologically capable world we live in, that doing an Elijah test through our modern day capabilities seems like the normal abnormality to finish things out. We’re not simpletons or barbarian in the ancient days of battle and no reading of the past, we’re now alike and should act alike as 'one' through a final vision effort.
With it tricky at times to understand, could it be hype how it gives examples and stresses heaven as the winning side victory, but the reality is it isn’t that different on the separation of the two worlds? Is it overblown, where it may harshly be read and interpreted that for not believing you will burn all eternity in the Lake of Fire but we come to find out the difference of heaven and hell is 24 ounces less of liquid a day as hells torment is really just overblown like the rest of the literature, not to mention sins and pleasure restrictions themselves are overblown as well?

It creates material, viewpoints, wishful optimism - that’s it?!
It’s true we often prefer to generalize it un-specifically in some ways, but isn’t that ok then given everything it entails? We shouldn’t just defend miracles plain as day, or defend each sentence or we’d look off! Why bring up hell, are you going to make someone else mad? Doesn’t it sometimes, by creating additional standards of conduct, teach people to be more at enmity with each other, where believers alike have tendency to despise each other’s decisions and the criteria’s become unpleasant conversations given it says some things are sins for one and not for others, such as judgement between people doing errant behavior similarly (sin pointing), or for creating controversy regarding substances that enter the body and are expelled out of us, or examples when sometimes gospel direction seems wish washy like elder advice until you get 2-3 people to change his opinion or deal with shortened advice off simplistic teachings that leave you in an undesired state of asceticism - not factoring all things you go through.
It doesn’t always seem the most healthy or true decision in life, to be a servant and change life outlooks submissive to Christ, to really think people’s lives become changed with daily conversations with God, that it makes you happy or sad correct in better fashion, and that following its predicate is some gift to be enthralled over. Also why be cornered into the burden of religions association knowing the bible calls you out to be wish washy but the full crowd isn’t always accepting and there’s only so much praying and fasting you can do in a day. Any additional hardships that can stem from others within the crowd seems tough.
How is it real, to live different for a gospel, to take things for more than a grain of salt on some of its implications, if things were written so long ago in ways mentioned already that don't always translate into a truer reality than the world of gravity, science, and rules we see around us everyday? We save money for things in life, for our kids college, but does each thing we don’t buy really count towards our better stance and standing with Christianity?
The antagonist isn’t off or out of their minds to regard portions of gospel direction as over-inflated material; if they were to compare the bible to some standard policy manuals, they would argue that in effect man-made policies are more direct and effective on exact requirements, also better at side stepping unneeded information such as evaluation of additional morality eternal factors, that can hinder living liberties unlike policies more about making money and following procedures others do. Yet a believer can come to see directions to the masses isn’t always simple and it represents treating people good. Sometimes knowing the evils of the world help give comfort to its offer to live instead of perish. The gospel, regardless of our better wishful thinking, makes things life or death requiring us to believe and try. So hype, define hype, do you judge hype always as a prohibited aspect of existence? I like to think it’s sound good advice, that it gave proper direction at the grueling times of humanities development, that it gives hope and leaves nothing impossible, and gives more people viewpoints and ways to live.
It’s good to remember, if we are to live a zillion years in our future spirit bodies, the differences do matter (between two eternal areas of living) and the bible has told us things upfront in a way we should be responsive to, to accept with some urgency. An example why it’s urgency is part of our decision about the future: ‘Better to be thrown into the bottom of the ocean with a millstone tied to your neck, than to teach an innocent someone to sin,’ or ‘better to cut one hand off and enter heaven with one hand than go to hell with both hands.’ Maybe a hype factor within it doesn’t dull it, maybe it opens up more future than anything else out there, we are being conditioned with free decisions before us always ongoing, to be responsive to intricate life decisions as human beings with a conscious, so we must weigh the material and decision and recognize how to fit things into place properly with this all.
Some hype maybe, but a needed hype definitely. Okay Jesus just fed 5,000 from a loaf of bread after speaking to the crowd that followed his every move while healing them physically and spiritually, then later he walked on water and hovered and flew over the water before ascending into the clouds after rising from death, returning to heaven to watch a re-run clip of Moses parting the Red Sea seems as hyped information, thus believing isn't required – but don’t believe and follow its accord and you’re in jail. I guess the Creator does things however He wills, hype or not. Back then Jews were outnumbered or cornered by Egypt or Babylon or Old Testament Jews, but God delivered the people He choose. After Paul’s mystery of the gospel was revealed that all people Jew or Gentile were saved, it seems in the now during this astounding technologically capable world we live in, that doing an Elijah test through our modern day capabilities seems like the normal abnormality to finish things out. We’re not simpletons or barbarian in the ancient days of battle and no reading of the past, we’re now alike and should act alike as 'one' through a final vision effort.
