  • We Have a Problem. Listen to This: “Jacob I Loved, but Esau I Hated” – Malachi 1:2-3
    Mystery and Majesty The Mystery and Majesty of Election Romans 9:6-13 We have a problem. Listen to this: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated” – Malachi 1:2-3. The prophet Malachi placed those words in the mouth of God. The Apostle Paul quoted them approvingly in making an important point (Romans 9:13). Is that hate speech? I see no hope for this sermon unless I redirect the emotions aroused by those three words in the mouth of God: “Esau I hated.” To do this I need to talk about the past, but are impatient with the past. We feel superior to the past. Our impatient snobbery makes it hard to hear the wisdom our ancestors offer. Don’t be impatient. Don’t be a snob. Let me help. Here’s how. Did you see the TV commercial about a teenage boy, who had just had a fender- bender with his dad’s expensive car? He said to his friend, who was riding with him, “My dad’s going to kill me.” How many times have you heard someone say that? “If I don’t remember our anniversary, my wife’s going to kill me.” How many times have you said that? “If I don’t get that report on my boss’s desk by Monday, she’s going to kill me.” Really? Do that teenage boy, that husband, and that employee stand in danger of deadly force being used against them? Of course not! It’s a habit of speech, and no one takes it literally.

  • HOUSE Groups: Discussion Questions: Malachi 4:1-6 (Key
    HOUSE Groups: Discussion Questions: Malachi 4:1-6 (Key Verse) Malachi 4:2 NKJV - 2 But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise With healing in His wings; (Malachi 4:1): 1 "For behold, the day is coming, Burning like an oven, And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day which is coming shall burn them up," Says the LORD of hosts, "That will leave them neither root nor branch. READ: Proverbs 6:16-19 Question: God tells His people that He will judge the proud. Why is pride such a dangerous sin, and how is it that pride often goes hand- in-hand with wickedness? Question: As a Christian, how does the knowledge of God’s impending judgment upon the wicked impact your life, and affect your view of those that are without Christ? Question: Before the Great Day of God’s Judgment, how does the Lord work in giving every last person an opportunity to repent of their sin? (Malachi 4:2-3): 2 But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise With healing in His wings; And you shall go out And grow fat like stall-fed calves. 3 You shall trample the wicked, For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet On the day that I do [this]," Says the LORD of hosts. Question: In a world that dishonors God, how would you define fearing the name of the Lord? Question: What are some examples of the type of healing that is needed in the world today, and what type of healing can the people of God look forward to receiving? Question: In light of the wicked’s current prosperity, how does this passage contrast the longevity of the righteous with the brevity of the wicked? Question: We end verse 3 with the Lord saying, “On the day that I do this…” Why is it important to for us to personally realize that all the work that takes place is the Lord’s work, and how does knowing that allow us to rest in His timing for everything?

  • The Promise of the Arrival of Elijah in Malachi and the Gospels
    Grace Theological Journal 3.2 (1982) 221-33. [Copyright © 1982 Grace Theological Seminary; cited with permission; digitally prepared for use at Gordon and Grace Colleges and elsewhere] THE PROMISE OF THE ARRIVAL OF ELIJAH IN MALACHI AND THE GOSPELS WALTER C. KAISER, JR. Was John the Baptist the fulfillment of Malachi’s prediction about Elijah the prophet who was to come before that great day of the Lord comes? The hermeneutical solution to this question is offered in a generic fulfillment. or what the older theologians called the novissma. Therefore, Elijah has come "in the spirit and power" witnessed in John the Baptist and will yet come in the future. Generic prophecy has three foci: (1) the revelatory word, (2) all intervening historical events which perpetuate that word, and (3) the generic wholeness (one sense or meaning) in which the final or ultimate fulfillment participates in all the earnests that occupied the interim between the original revelatory word and this climactic realization. * * * THE NT's interest in the prophet Elijah may be easily assessed from the fact that he is the most frequently mentioned OT figure in the NT after Moses (80 times), Abraham (73), and David (59); Elijah's name appears 29 or 30 times.1 Even more significant, however, are the six major and explicit references to Elijah in the Synoptic Gospels. There, some of Jesus' contemporaries identified our Lord--in the second of three opinions-- as Elijah (Mark 6:14-16; Luke 9:7-9). Jesus' disciples were also aware of this popular confusion, for they too repeated it (Matt 16:13-20; Mark 8:27-30; Luke 9:18-21).

  • Malachi 3:7-12 Says That Not Tithing Is Robbing God
    Wordofhisgrace.org Bible Q&A Q. You say that Christians don't need to tithe. But Malachi 3:7-12 says that not tithing is robbing God. How do you respond? A. The question is whether this applies to Christians. Malachi 3:7-12 says, Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts. This passage is often used to try to prove that Christians should tithe, that if they don't tithe they are robbing God, and that if they will tithe God will bless them and the nation.

  • Paul's Eucharistic Use of Malachi in 1 Corinthians 10:21
    The Table of the Lord: Paul’s Eucharistic Use of Malachi in 1 Corinthians 10:21 Jon R. Jordan | [email protected] | Faculty, Coram Deo Academy Abstract Paul is alone among New Testament authors in using LXX Malachi’s τραέζης κυρίου (trapeza kyriou, table of the Lord). In bringing his lengthy section on Christian freedom to a close, Paul addresses a specific concern of the Corinthian church: the eating of meat sacrificed to pagan idols. In 1 Cor 10:14–22 we see Paul use τρα$έ&'( )*"ίο* and other Eucharistic language to frame the celebration of the Lord’s Supper as the ideal counter-example to this Corinthian practice. Why, in this setting, would Paul make use of Malachi’s phrase? What does !"#$%&'( )*"ίο* communicate to Paul’s audience that other Eucharistic language can not? This paper will propose that Paul’s use of Malachi’s !"#$έ&'( )*"ίο* (trapez-s kyriou) allows him to speak of the Eucharist in sacrificial terms and provides later Christian writers a New Testament precedent for using Malachi in a Eucharistic sense. It will be argued (1) that Paul certainly has Malachi’s disputation with the Levitical priest in mind when he uses !"#$έ&'( )*"ίο* (trapez-s kyriou) in 1 Cor 10:21, (2) that the context of Malachi’s own use of !"#$έ&'( )*"ίο* (trapez-s kyriou) provides a vision of a future, sacrificial worship of Yahweh by “the nations,” and (3) that Paul intends for these sacrificial overtones to be heard in his use of the Eucharist as a counter-example to the consummation of idol meat.

  • “Good Morning” Malachi 4:2 I Had an Interesting Conversation with a Former Student the Other Night. She Was Having a Hard T
    “GOoD Morning” Malachi 4:2 I had an interesting conversation with a former student the other night. She was having a hard time reconciling how her sister, who has cancer, got dealt that particular lot in life while others are seemingly living as if there is no God, living lengthy lives and prospering while doing so! I felt her pain because I HAVE ASKED GOD THIS SAME QUESTION ! I too have asked God, “Why?” I too have looked at my sick wife and asked God, “Is this really happening?” I too know the pain of facing a situation that you don’t feel like you “deserve ” which is a very difficult pill to swallow! As she poured her heart out to me, I started to pray and ask God for the words to say. I couldn’t just use some trite expression or some church cliché to make her feel better! She needed some consolation. Then God reminded me of how He helped me to get through my tough spots. Page 1 of 12 He said, remind her of the brokenness of the world! Remind her of how things aren’t as they should be because of the sinful condition of the world! Remind her that although I allow pain, I also give strength to the weary! Tell her how I gave you strength when you wanted to quit! Remind her that although the wicked look like they are prospering, to focus on strengthening the personal relationship with Me while not focusing on the wicked! NOTHING NEW This question of the wicked prospering is one that is asked throughout the Bible ! Habakkuk asked it: How long , O LORD, will I call for help, And You will not hear? I cry out to You, "Violence!" Yet You do not save.

  • Malachi: an Introduction
    Faith Community Church Malachi 1:1-5 Pastor Timothy Juhnke 09/27/09 Malachi: An Introduction Father we are in need, this people, this morning. They are in need of You meeting us. Just like we were in need in the first service. Lord You deserve glory and honor in this service. To I pray that as we open up Your Word, the word that you gave Malachi – that the never changing God, the glory of who You are would rest on these words and on this time. I pray that You would minister Your Word. There are so many different situations, troubles, trials, that are represented here this morning. May You by Your Spirit minister to Your people this morning through Your Word. May You speak to them. May you touch them this morning. May Your Spirit have freedom to work. And we ask these things and expect an answer to these things because of Jesus Christ, who is our Savior, who is our High Priest, who lives forever to make intercession for us. We ask this in His name. Amen. Well we have spent months, year, almost a year and a half in the book of Hebrews. This morning we are starting a new study in a different book, the book of Malachi. If you have your Bibles I’d like you to turn to the book of Malachi. It might be easier to say turn to the gospel of Matthew and then go back one book. We’re not very proficient in the Old Testament, but Malachi is one of the easier ones to find because it is the last book in the Old Testament.

  • Malachi 1:1 1 Malachi 1:8
    Malachi 1:1 1 Malachi 1:8 The Book of Malachi 1 A revelation, Yahweh’s* word to Israel by Malachi. 2 “I have loved you,” says Yahweh. Yet you say, “How have you loved us?” “Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” says Yahweh, “Yet I loved Jacob; 3 but Esau I hated, and made his mountains a desolation, and gave his heritage to the jackals of the wilderness.” 4 Whereas Edom says, “We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places,” Yahweh of Armies says, “They shall build, but I will throw down; and men will call them ‘The Wicked Land,’ even the people against whom Yahweh shows wrath forever.” 5 Your eyes will see, and you will say, “Yahweh is great —even beyond the border of Israel!” 6 “A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If I am a father, then where is my honor? And if I am a master, where is the respect due me?” says Yahweh of Armies to you priests who despise my name. “You say, ‘How have we despised your name?’ 7 You offer polluted bread on my altar. You say, ‘How have we polluted you?’ In that you say, ‘Yahweh’s table is contemptible.’ 8 When you offer the blind for sacrifice, isn’t that evil? And when you offer the lame and sick, isn’t that evil? Present it now to your governor! Will he be pleased with you? Or will he accept your person?” says Yahweh of Armies. * 1:1 “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “LORD” (all caps) in other translations.

Committee Member ______________________________ James H. Nutter, D. A. Honors Director ______________________________ Date TIMES OF MALACHI 3 Abstract Malachi is an Old Testament book addressing Israel’s struggles with discontentment and complacent worship, issues that are strikingly similar to those in the church today. Israel had returned to their sacred land but had left their sacred ways behind. The heart for God had perhaps been left in captivity. Selfishness and disappointment reigned, as the nation felt oddly deflated by God’s lack of a “proper response” to their desires, while they simultaneously flaunted their disobedience to God’s laws. The main sins addressed by Malachi were: the corruption of worship and offerings, the rampant sin of divorce, marriage to foreign women, and the attitude of complacency toward these sins. Half-hearted offerings, self-serving choices, and an absolute denial of their sinful state calls to mind the heart of the modern church today. Malachi delivers a rally cry that rings throughout the ages and should batter the doors of our hearts and churches today, as much as it was intended to in the times of this God-sent messenger.

  • Malachi 4:1–6 Sermon: “Dawning of a New Day”
    Sermon Draft Text: Malachi 4:1–6 Sermon: “Dawning of a New Day” Our text this morning is from Malachi. Malachi’s prophetic career occurred after the people of Israel returned from the exile in Babylon. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah speak of the return and the rebuilding of the temple and the city of Jerusalem. This return and rebuilding and the consequences of turning away from the Lord should have been clear and obvious to the people. Yet God sends Malachi to them because, once again, all is not well. The people are grumbling and complaining, giving God sub-standard sacrifices, and not following the Law of Moses. The more things change the more they stay the same. A new day dawns every morning. The sun comes up whether we like it or not. And honestly, some mornings we like it, and some mornings we don’t. There’s the first day of vacation, and there’s the first day of school. There’s Christmas morning. There’s the morning of your wedding day. The sun comes up, whether we want it to or not. 1 And whether we’re ready for it or not. Whether you’re ready school or work or not. Whether you’re ready to preach or not. The sun comes up, and a new day dawns, ready or not. Malachi told the people of Israel: the sun of righteousness shall arise. And some will want it to, and some will not. Some will be ready, and some will not. For some, that day will be a day of joy, but for others it will be a day of dread.
