This separate article tackles the misuse of Malachi 3 by Erano.
"There is hope. God will show us the way out of the evil culture such as corruption and injustice that we are now experiencing.
How will God lead mankind out of the sufferings that is being experienced today?
"See, I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the LORD Almighty.
Malachi 3:1 NIV
“the messenger of the covenant”- God will send a messenger of His covenant. God will send a person who will enlighten humanity about His laws that was before given to His prophet Moses. With the enlightenment, they may implement God’s laws correctly and therefore end the evil caused by Jesus when he overturned the laws of God.
“Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking” - This is the real righteous God that the whole world is seeking.
“Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the LORD Almighty.”– “Suddenly” because all this time the whole world was made to believe (by the religions) that God’s message to humanity ended with Jesus; that no other individual will be sent by God anymore. When the revelations are read with an open and careful mind, the elucidation of (the prophet like Moses), Maestro Evangelista in (insert Erano's websites here),they are taken aback when they suddenly realize the truth about God!
The coming of the messenger of the covenant (who will give us true understanding regarding God’s laws), clarifies that God is now showing us the way out of the evil that is happening in our world today."
The messenger appears to the Israelites specifically and will turn people back to the Father in heaven, He has to deal with the Israelites before bringing to world to him. There is NOTHING about Jesus over turning the laws of God in the context at all.
"“Like a refiner's fire or a launderer's soap” – for the first time we will understand why he was also referred to as such, let us read in:
This third I will bring into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold.
They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, 'They are my people,'
and they will say, 'The LORD is our God.' "
Zechariah 13:9 (NIV)
Those who will read and heed the revelations of the "Messenger" will know the True and Great Name of God. They are the ones who will be refined as if with fire. They are also the people who will call on the Name of God and God will acknowledge them as His People.
This has now been fulfilled by Teacher Evangelista in www.thename.ph and www.thenameonline.info.
This is why he is called “Messenger of the covenant” because he will reveal the Name of God that was not fully known even during the time of Moses. Any covenant or Law without the name of the one who made it is not binding and has no effect. Since he will reveal the Name of God, he is fully establishing the covenant that God gave through Moses before.
Who is this Messenger of the covenant whom God will also send to reveal His true Name and who will enlighten all of us about the laws and statutes that He gave His prophet Moses?"
The messenger doesn't reveal God's name, the Israelites already knew the name of YHWH, EVEN at Mount Sinai and what Zechariah 13 speaks on is addressed here:

Plus, Erano being prophesied in Deuteronomy 18 has already been refuted so we needn't go over that again, read the following articles and go to the sections on Deuteronomy 18:

Also, The application of Malachi 3 in a Biblical context is essentially this, which I make clear in my article Contra Blumenthal:
"Malachi 3:1-4
"3 “I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come,” says the Lord Almighty.
2 But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap. 3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then the Lord will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness, 4 and the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem will be acceptable to the Lord, as in days gone by, as in former years."
The NT interprets the first verse as a reference to John the Baptist paving the way for Yeshua or Jesus. As for the subject of the Levites being refined, John the Baptist cleanses the Levites by baptising them in the river Jordan, thus getting them ready for the Kingdom of Heaven. The sacrifices of the Levites afterwards are also pleasing to God as a result of this. In the Millennial Reign of Christ when the Temple stands once more in Jerusalem, the offerings given within the context of Malachi will pleasing to the LORD as in the former times of Judah. While the NT makes it clear that the Law is fulfilled in Christ, there isn't anything to suggest that the temple, even temporarily, will not be re-established in the end of days for a holy purpose."
