Malachi 3:13-18 |
exposition
Pastor Gary Combs continued the 8-week exposition of Malachi entitled, “Dialogue With God,” with this message from chapter three. In this chapter of Malachi, God told the people of Israel that He heard all of their words and that some had spoken against Him, complaining to one another about Him, while others had rightly feared and esteemed His name before one another. He warns that there is coming a Day when He will separate those who speak against Him from those who fear Him and will only call those who fear Him as His own. Which group do you want to be in? Those who speak against God or for God? The text gives three steps to how we can change our grumbling into gratitude.

Malachi 3:7-15 |
exposition
As we continue our series going verse by verse through the book of Malachi, we learn how God accused the Israelites of robbing him, what that means for us today, and how through Jesus we can respond to God not through the law of tithing, but by willingly giving our whole selves back to God.

Malachi 2:10-16 |
exposition
Pastor Gary Combs continues the sermon series through the book of Malachi entitled: “A Dialogue With God.” This 4th message in the series is taken from Malachi 2:10-16. In this passage, God warned the Israelites that they had been unfaithful in their relationship to Him, to their fellow countrymen and to their spouses. God is a covenant-making and a covenant-keeping God. And He wanted His chosen people to enjoy the life and peace of living in covenant with Him and others. We can heed God’s warning today and live under the New Covenant that enables us to be faithful in all our relationships.
