My brother always challenged us to be critical thinkers and be ready to give an answer. All praises!! Very rich teaching

15:03 The man clothed with linen who had the writer's inkhorn by his side, mentioned in Ezekiel chapters 9 and 10 is the end-time restoring Elias that Jesus prophesied would restore all things prior to His Second Coming. This same "man clothed with linen" is also mentioned in Daniel 10:5-9 and Daniel 12:5-7. So, both Ezekiel and Daniel were shown the end-time restoring Elias in vision. (Ezekiel also saw the four angelic helpers and two witnesses of Elias, too, who were the six slayers of men that were with the man clothed with linen in Ezekiel chapter 9, whereas Daniel only saw Elias' two witnesses in Daniel 12:5-6). John the beloved apostle of Jesus Christ also saw the end-time restoring Elias in vision: in Revelation 7 (the angel ascending from the east who wrote on people's foreheads) and in Revelation 8 (the eighth angel at the altar who cast fire down, just as the man in linen did in Ezejiel 10.)

John also saw Elias in Revelation chapter 9 (the angelic king Abaddon), chapter 10 (the mighty angel) and chapter 11 (where the mighty angel introduces his two witnesses). Elias performs the restoration/restitution (see Acts 3:19-21) of all things. Every word _and_ work of God requires two or three witnesses. This is according to the law of witnesses. So, as Elias will be performing the "all things" mission, there must be two or three men to be eyewitnesses of all he does, so that they can testify that they saw him do it with their own two eyes and heard with their own two ears. So, Elias does the work, whereas his two witnesses _observe_ him doing it. So, he will appear on the scene with two other men by his side. This is why Daniel saw two men in Daniel 12, and Ezekiel saw them (as two of the six slayers in Ezek. 9) and John saw them in Rev. 11 and Zechariah prophesied of them as two olive branches in Zech. 4. They are called "the sons of oil" in the Hebrew in that Zechariah chapter, indicating that they will likely be Elias' _sons_ .

Jesus said that the reapers during the end times would be _angels_ . These would gather the wheat and bind the tares. Now, the angel in charge of all the other angels that participate in the end-time work will be the restoring Elias. He is said to be both a man and an angel. But which angel? John gives us the answer in Rev. 9 by stating his name: Abaddon/Apollyon. These names mean Destroyer/Destruction. So, then, who is the end-time restoring Elias? _It is the very destroying angel himself._ Now, the angelic king Abaddon is a _divine_ angel, _not_ a demonic angel. He is God the Father's personal angel. He is the angel God sends to deliver a message of _destruction_ . He delivers _the wrath of God_ . Whereas the other angels are _saving angels_ . This is the individual Isaiah spoke of in Is. 28:2, who God calls His "mighty and strong one." This angel's appearance causes destruction and curses to go forth, so Zechariah mentions the candlestick (Elias) in Zech. 4, along with two olive branches (Elias' two witnesses), and then the _very next chapter_ (Zech. 5) speaks of _curses_ going forth. Nevertheless, although the destroyer has been sent before (see 2 Chron. 21:14-30), this time the destroyer (who was made by God _specifically_ to destroy and curse) will be tasked with _restoring_ all things.

After Elias the Destroyer/Restorer appears on the scene with his two witnesses, others also appear on the scene, specifically, four angelic helpers, 144,000 sealed men, the seven angels in heaven who blow the trumpets and pour out the vials of God's wrath and John the apostle of Jesus Christ who will also have a mission. Although only the destroyer is a destroying angel, when other angels or men operate under his authority and direction, _they too become divine destroyers_ . Thus his four angelic helpers _will kill men_ . And his two witnesses _will kill men_ . And the seven angels in heaven will pour out wrath that curses and harms and kills men. These angels and men normally would be seeking to save men, but because they operate under the direction of the destroyer, they gain power and authority to destroy, as well. If Elias will perform the infinite "all things" mission, why will others participate in the end-time work? Because the others will have desires to _save_ as many men as possible, by getting them to repent and exercise faith in Christ, whereas the destroyer will be intent solely on destroying the wicked. So, God binds some helpers to him so as to save as many people as possible before the destroyer completes his salvific/destructive work. (The righteous get saved by his work, whereas the wicked get destroyed by it.) Thus, Isaiah's prophecy in chapter 49 of his book is about the end-time restoring Elias. When it says (in verse 6) that he will be God's "salvation unto the end of the earth," it's referring to him and his "all things" mission, which saves everything that is created and approved by God, but destroys all the rest. His mission is to "establish the earth" (verse 8), etc., which is part of the restoration of all things, both of men, animals, plants, this planet earth, and everything else in existence. The Son of God got to perform the atonement and resurrection, through His infinite suffering and His death and resurrection, whereas Elias gets to perform an infinite amount of restoring _work_ . Both the atoning sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus, _as well as_ the restoration of all things, is necessary for our eternal salvation. The one is performed by the Savior, whereas the other is performed by _the destroyer_ . This is why God here calls him his "salvation unto the ends of the earth," even though He's speaking to the very destroying angel himself! Thus God does the impossible: He takes a being that He created only to destroy and causes him to save everything He wants saved. And the angels He created to help save mankind, He puts under the authority of the destroyer and voila!, they become destroyers, too.
