THE TRAGEDY OF APATHY 8. DERISION, DISTINCTION & THE DAY OF THE LORD! (Malachi 3:13-4:6)

1) A REBUKE! (3:13)

• Your words have been hard against Me says the Lord

• The people were cynical – it’s vain to serve God

2) A RECOGNITION! (3:14-16)

• Those who feared the Lord and esteemed His name were His treasured possession

3) A RETURN! (4:1-6)

• The great and awesome Day of the Lord

• A Day of grief and glory

4) A REMINDER! (4:4-6)

• Remember the Law of My servants (Moses & Elijah) historical & prophetic: Matt 11:14, 17:10-13, 2 Pet 3:8-13, Rev 11
