John the Baptist turns the hearts of fathers to their children

Published on Prophets

John the Baptist turned many people to repentance. For fathers, that repentance meant turning their hearts toward their children.

 

 

Malachi 4:6.  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.

Sirach 48:10. Who was recorded for reproofs in their seasons, To pacify anger, before it brake forth into wrath; To turn the heart of the father to the son, And to restore the tribes of Jacob.

Luke 1:17. He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to prepare a people prepared for the Lord.”
