Elijah must come again to restore the Fullness in this last dispensation
Just a few months prior to the revelation to build the Nauvoo temple (Jan. 19, 1841, D&C 124) Joseph had prophesied that Elijah would come again! He referred to a future time saying, “when the priesthood is restored with ALL its authority, power and blessings.” This statement would suggest that it was not ALL, at that time, present in Nauvoo. Also, that there was another dispensation yet to come. Joseph prophesied:
“Elijah was the last prophet that held the keys of this priesthood, and who WILL before the last dispensation, restore the authority and delive[r] the Keys of this priesthood in order that all the ordinances may be attended to in righteousness.” (Words of Joseph Smith, Andrew Ehat, p. 43)
