The scriptures outline not only events that must happen before the Second Coming but also the order in which these milestones can be expected to occur. An important forerunner of the restoration is the coming of Elijah/Elias/John the Baptist. In Matthew 11 and 17, Jesus explains who Elias is and that Elias must come first and restore all things. In this presentation, I explain that our concept of the Restoration is out of order and outline the timelines and major figures in the Restoration to demonstrate why Elijah must return before the second coming of Christ.
