As John the Baptist was his mes- senger, preparing the tray before hint at his coming In Imiailittlqon, so the real Elijah will prepare the way before him at his coming in glory (Matt. 17:11; Mal. 4:5, 0), Meantime all be- lievers should He preparing the way for his coming again by preaching re- pentance and remisslon of. mins In his name In all the world, according to Luke 94:46-48; Acts 1:8.

As to a more full account of John's preaching see Matt, 8:7.10; Luke 3:7-14: lie told theta of some- thing greater than baptism with wa- ter, even it baptism of the lIoly Spirit which Jesus would give them. and lie pointed then onward to the end of the age when the wheat would be gath- ered into the garner, but the chaff burned up with unquenchable fire (latt. 8:11, 12). Tlie future for all will be the Kligdom or the lake of fire, rind even between death stud resurrec- tion it Is conscious happiness or tor- ment (Rev. 20:15; Luke 16 :25). If this wens really believed by all the preachers and teachers, they would surely be more earnest in proclaiming the Gospel of God concerning his Son, the only Saeior of sinners (Acts 4:12).
