John The Baptist was the messenger. Next question.

Wrong messenger. This is pre second coming, not pre first coming. Read the stuff between what I bolded.

Though you do bring up an intersting side note. John the Baptist appeared to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdry along the bank of the Susquehanna River, near Harmony, Pennsylvania, May 15, 1829, (HC 1: 39–42.)

These are Johns words:

"Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah I confer the priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; and this shall never be taken again from the earth, until the sons of Levi do offer again an offering unto the Lord in righteousness."

Now, compare that with Malachi 3:3
