"When
the full measure of Elijah's mission is understood---that
the hearts
of the children will be turned to the fathers, and the fathers to the
children---it applies just as much on this side of
the veil as it does to the other side of the veil (see
Malachi 4:5-6).
If
we neglect our families here in having family home night and we fail in
our responsibility here, how would heaven look if we lost some of those
through our own neglect? Heaven would not be heaven until we have done
everything we can to save those whom the Lord has sent through our
lineage.
So,
the hearts of you fathers and mothers must be turned to your children
right now, if you have the true Spirit of Elijah, and not think that it
applies merely to those who are beyond the veil.
Let
your hearts be turned to your children, and teach your children; but
you must do it when they are young enough to be schooled.
And
if you are neglecting your family home evening, you are neglecting the
beginning of the mission of Elijah just as certainly as if you were
neglecting your research work of genealogy."
