MalachiSteve Gregg
In this in-depth exploration of Malachi 1-4, Steve Gregg discusses the reasons why the Israelites were not prospering and were under God's curse, citing their sins, including leaving and divorcing their wives. Gregg also delves into the subject of God's election, using the example of Jacob and Esau to explain that God chose one nation as human instruments on earth to bring forth the Messiah and carry forward the knowledge of God. He interprets various prophesies in Malachi, including the coming of John the Baptist and the judgment that will come upon disobedient people. Overall, Gregg emphasizes the importance of serving God and the reward it brings, even in difficult times.
