Laddar... The Message of Malachi (The Bible Speaks Today) (utgåvan 2013)96 | Ingen/inga | 216,194 |
(5) | Ingen/inga | The book of Malachi fittingly sits in Christian Bibles as the last book of the Old Testament, which it assumes, summarizes and applies. Yet it also looks forward to the New Testament with its promises of the coming reign of God.A striking feature of the book is the way in which every word of God is contradicted or questioned by his people. God's persistence in speaking to them is a clear picture of sin and grace in close proximity. Furthermore, God's people neither served him wholeheartedly nor turned entirely away in blatant disobedience. This was not neutral territory but a dangerous whirlpool of self-deception.Peter Adam's thorough exposition shows how Malachi is God's effective remedy for such a situation. The greatest sin of God's people is the sin against God--the source of all sin against ourselves and others. At the heart of God's people, the church, must lie a deep, overwhelming conviction that God loves them--just as he reminds Israel in his first words to them in this book.… (mer) |

[General Preface] The Bible Speaks Today describes three series of expositions, based on the books of the Old and New Testaments, and on Bible themes that run through the whole of Scripture.  [Author's Preface] I have loved the book of Malachi for many years, and have taught and preached it many times.  [Introduction] The book of Malachi sits aptly in our Bibles as the last book of the Old Testament, for it looks back to the Old Testament and assumes, summarizes an applies its message.  This brief introduction to the book in its first verse tells us four important facts: the book comes from the LORD; it is an oracle in the form of the word; it is addressed Israel; and it comes Malachi.  | |
