yemi solar: John the baptist was only a 'type' of elijah. The scripture you quoted actually means 'one with the spirit or anointing of elijah' this simply means the aunction on the two men were alike in a lot of ways.

However, they are two different human beings. I believe whem we get to heaven we will see the two of them.

Another analogy can be found in the two witnesses mentioned inthe book of revelation. The two of them are called 'moses and elijah' of course we know from the story of the rich man and lazarus that the dead cannot preach to the living. So theologians believe they are two human beings with the annointing of moses and elijah respectively.

Thirdly, on the mountain of transfiguration, there was moses and elijah, moses representing the law and elijah representing the prophets. These two are a type of the two major way though which God has spoken to mankind. So they are two different poeple.

thanks for your explanation

was it that prophet Elijah was taken away by God (he did not experience death but was taken by chariot of fire) to be later sent back by God as John the baptist to prepare the way for our lord Jesus christ. According to prophecies by prophet malachi in malachi 4:5,6
5 Behold i will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great dreadful day of the lord.
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I should come and smite the earth with a curse.
According to Jesus christ also after being to the mount of transfiguration with Peter,James and John in matthew 17:10-13
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, why then say the scribes that Elijah must first come?
11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elijah truly shall first come, and restore all things
12 But I say unto you, that Elijah is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the son of man suffer of them.
13 Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the baptist.
Which means Elijah was sent back to the world to prepare the way for Our Lord Jesus Christ. And was beheaded by king herod which means only Enoch did not experience death in the scriptures.
I need mature comments to shed more light. Thank u.

pls if there is no hell of eternal or evalasting purnishment then frosbel and co should explain these verses of the scriptures because it seems u guys are even teaching God the way he should hav written the scriptures matthew 25:30,41,46. Matt 24:51. Mark 9:43-48. Pls hell is real. Beware of false prophets. Frosbel nor his league of decievers wil stand for you on the jugdement day, you hav the scriptures read and pray to God to reveal the word to you in his light nd not man made interpretation

frosbel:

A Pharisee is one who burdens others with manmade tradition while adhereing to a different policy.

A Pharisee by inference is a hypocrite , outside they appear holy and clean but inwardly they are full of corruption and wickedness.

hmm all pharisees are not hypocrites but they r those that know d law like having phd in theology. Paul d apostle was a pharisee, ezra was a scribe in israel nd they obeyed God but false prophet like frosbel is the real furstrated hypocrites

Ajibel: Some christians sef ehn. Where in d Bible did they specify which kinda song to sing

colosians 3:16

shdemidemi:

Anyone who teaches the gospel according to the scriptures is not false. You can list all the 'big' pastors you know, as long as their teachings and practices are not inline with the gospel, they are false.

its nw glaring dat u nd frosbel nd gflourish nd d likes r just jehovah witness nd u r ashame to identify with ur denomination. Smh...

let me clear u guys doubt, ignorance and misleading press report av made most of u here to say wrong tinz nd incuring the wrath of God on urselves. Those who av made this thread ur job to accuse and criticize from a negative perspective because of ur hatred 4 deeper life. From authoritative source in newyork usa where john lives, d WEDDING did NOT take place in DEEPER LIFE CHURCH. The bride is not a member of the church. And moreso d dad past. Kumuyi cannot force his son of over 27yrs to marry in d church. Pls al of u speaking against the pastor should ask 4 forgiveness.

Will you guys stop peedling this nonsense?. . .How can you not use logic to understand god?. . .The same god in the bible said that "come let us reason together". . How can you reason with an entity whose ways and thoughts are different from yours?. . .You guys aleays run to this nonsense god ways are not ours mantra when you are in a fix and you want to explain absurdity away. . .Why read the bible at all if god ways are not yours and yoiu can't use reason or logic to undertand god. .No wonder you guys keep selling all your possessions and giving your hard earned money to the fraudulent pastors. . .

am not pastor frickd, am a scripture based believer and i know the God am serving with ful assurance. Maybe u dont realy know the God u r serving and you are just one of those guys dat just say there is God and u want to proove it by ur perishable logical reasonin. God wil open ur heart to see God the way he is through his word in Jesus name

read kjv 1john 5:7, john1:1-10.
U cannot use logic to evaluate the one who created u. Frosbel wake up b4 its too late. Gods way is higher than ur ways and also his thought higher than ur thoughts. Allow the spirit of God to guide and stop being wise in your own ways which is foolishnes in Gods sight.

frosbel:

Tell us why NOT ONE PERSON who died in scripture came back with these visions and dreams , tell us why Paul had a vision of paradise but was not permitted to say what he saw, finally tell us why there is not ONE recorded incident in the early church ( Acts of the apostles ) , where these visions occurred.

You have to be careful what you believe and preach , God is not into the business of confusion, if it is not in scripture bin it, it is false.

I believe and i have my convictions of God. Jesus told us about hell when he narated the experience of the richman and lazarus(luke16:20-31)remember its not a parable likewise john the beloved in revelation gave the records shown unto him at the island of patmos where he was banished Revelation 20:12-15. God is not mocked and hell awaits all that forsake Jesus christ on earth here. John 3:18

it is true nairalanders hell is real likewise heaven. This lady, Linda neva had a dream but she actually gave up the ghost and these mysteries was revealed unto her. You cannot use logic neither human wisdom to prove things of God 1corinthians 1:27, 2:13,14. God is calling everyone today to repentance and to continuously look unto Jesus, the only saviour. The day you use your perishable human wisdom to analyse God logically, then he seizes to be God because he created you. All you need now is to ask God to forgive you and cleanse you with the blood of Jesus, then continue depending on Jesus and not pastors by reading the bible and praying for the holy spirit to direct you. God bless you
