Advent: Malachi 2:17-3:5 | Week 4 - Alex Wood

Life Church | Salisbury NC Sermons

We will spend this Advent season studying the book of Malachi. Through Malachi, the Lord reproves and pursues his people - calling them to remember his covenant, seek him genuinely, and prepare for his coming. This week we look to Malachi 2:17-3:5.
*Due to an audio issue on Sunday morning, the recording quality is poor on this particular sermon.*
Three questions:

1. Oh God, where is your justice?
2. Oh God, why do we need refining?
3. Oh God, will you answer our cries for justice?

‘What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. This is he of whom it is written, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you." Matthew 11:9-10

"Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, 'Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord." Romans 12:19

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8

Three implications of God's judgment:

1. Forgiveness is possible
2. Justice is Necessary
3. Peace is Attainable
