Description

Standing between the end of the Old and the beginning of the New Testaments, Malachi summarizes all that’s gone before and also looks forward to the coming reign of God.

God’s persistence in speaking to an age that persistently contradicts or questions his every word is a clear and timely picture of the sin and grace in close proximity in our own times. God’s people neither serve him enthusiastically nor turn away in blatant disobedience, but this is not neutral territory; it’s a minefield of self-deception.
