John the Baptist and Jesus are both portrayed as messengers sent on assignment by God. John's role was to prepare people for Jesus, while Jesus came as the messenger of the New Covenant. Malachi's prophecy points to both of Christ's comings: His first coming in peace as the Lamb, and His second coming in judgment as the Lion. In that future judgment, He will purify His people and judge evildoers, just as Malachi and Revelation describe. Those who truly fear God show they belong to Him, and their lives will not be marked by the sinful deeds named in these warnings.
