(June 11, 2025) Dr Jim McClure concludes his Malachi series, one that is so relevant today…
In Parts 1 and 2 we explored the ‘Prevailing Background,’ the ‘People’s Rebuke’ and the ‘Pertinent Questions’ in the book of Malachi. In this final part we shall explore the ‘Prophetic Proclamations’ and ‘Promises concerning the future.’
4. Prophetic Proclamations (Chapter 3:1-6 and 4)
While the first three chapters of Malachi largely addressed the corruption and spiritual emptiness of the Jews in his day and their aggressive unwillingness to acknowledge their failures, a few verses in chapter 3 and the fourth chapter give further insight into God’s redemptive work for humankind.
