We've looked in Malachi at the downfall of the spiritual leadership and then the people of Israel. They desecrated God's table; they devalued His Word; and they doubted the worth of serving God. Now we see that they doubted God's justice: why follow the Lord if He's not going to judge those who don't? But God is holy and just, and judgment is coming. Pastor Mat looks at that as we wrap up the last book of the Old Testament and then move over to Revelation to look at the Day of Judgment still to come.
Malachi 3:13-18

Is it a waste of our time to serve the Lord? Many Israelites in the Prophet Malachi's day thought so. Why? Because their spiritual leaders doubted God's love, devalued His Word, deprived His tabernacle, and desecrated his table. This caused many people to fall away. But those who still did fear the Lord encouraged one another in it. And Pastor Mat has that same encouragement for you. Keep following the Lord; you will earn eternal dividends.

Is God okay with sin? That's the question as Pastor Mat continues his study through Malachi. People seem to think they can get away with sin, because they misunderstand God's patience. Our Holy God is NOT okay with sin, but He does love us. So what does He do? Find out in this no-nonsense message through the prophet Malachi.
Malachi 2
January 29, 2023 • Pastor Mathew Nadworny
The Word of the Lord through the prophet Malachi in Chapter Two is directed at a severely wicked priesthood. They are warned that if they refused to take their sin to heart and repent, they would be soundly judged. They devalued God's law and stumbled the people. One way it manifested was in how they treated their marriages. In this powerful message, Pastor Mat points out what happens when God's people resist His truth and His work.
Malachi 1:7-14

Is anything delaying you following Jesus? Or stopping you from giving your time, talent or treasure for His glory?
The prophet Malachi was sent to people who questioned the love of God because the priests were not teaching the Word of God. The spiritual leaders feared men more than the Lord, and Pastor Mat looks at what happened to Israel's relationship with God as a result.
Malachi 1:1-7

God, if you really love me, why are things the way they are? Have you ever asked that question?
In Malachi Chapter One, God's people ask Him questions of this kind over and over. Because the leaders don't trust God, the people don't. Pastor Mat looks at why this happens as he begins the book of Malachi written, not just to correct leaders, but also to encourage all believers.
