Malachi 4:5-6 states, "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.” Russell Shelton shows that the fulfillment of this prophecy has always been God's desire and His goal. From the time He instructed Israel to diligently teach the love of God to their children, to the Millennium when He will write His laws in their hearts, He tells us that He will bring about this loving relationship between human families and between humans and their Heavenly Father. Before that day comes, we, as Christians, must now be diligent in teaching and showing God's love to our children and grandchildren.
