malachi 4 has a 2 fold purpose accrding to what Jesus said. the disciples said, why say the scribes the elijah must 1st come? jesus answered and said, truly elijah shall 1st come and restore all things. but i say elijah has already come and did unto him as it is listed. Then the disciples new He spoke of John the baptist.
John was already dead but Christ spoke that elijah shall 1st come and restore all things. He put it future tense, prophesying that he foreruns the 2nd coming as well as forerunning his 1st coming, which was John the baptist.
while Bro. William Branham was baptizing on the Ohio river in 1933 b4 many witnesses was heard a voice saying as John the baptist foreran my 1st coming so send I you with a message to forerun my 2nd coming. God answered his prayers for healing of the people and performed the sign of the prophet again fulfilling the Lord's words saying the works that I do shall you do also yet greater works shall you do. He fulfilled that scripture.
