Narrative:  Elijah the Prophet






                                     - This is Elias -
                            Matt 11:02-19 • Luke 07:19-35 • John 05:32-47




             Now  when John  had  heard  in  the prison  the works  of  Christ,  he calling  unto  him two  of  his
       disciples sent two of his disciples, to Jesus, saying,
             “Art thou he that should come? Or look we for another?”
             When the men were come unto him, they said,

             “John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, ‘Art thou he that should come? Or do we look for
       another?”
             And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and
       unto many that were blind he gave sight. Then Jesus answering said unto them,
             “Go  your  way,  shew  and  tell John  again those things which  ye  do  hear  and  see:  The  blind

       receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised
       up,  and  the  poor  have  the  gospel  preached  to  them.  And  blessed  is  he,  whosoever  shall  not  be
       offended in me.”
             And  when  the  messengers  of  John  were  departed,  he  began  to  speak  unto  the  multitudes

       concerning John,
             “There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth
       of me is true. What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind? But what
       went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled,
       that wear soft clothing and live delicately, are in kings’ courts. Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness

       unto the truth. But I receive not testimony from man: But these things I say, that ye might be saved. He
