Malachi 3:1-18 // The coming day of the Lord, Christ's second Advent, will be terrible and awe inspiring, as God promises to purify and cleanse the world of unrighteousness like a refining fire or bleaching solution. But for those who turn to God in faith, the day of the Lord will be full of grace, a relief of suffering, a cleansing of sin, and a final positive answer to the question: "has God forgotten us"?
