Week 8 | Judgement and Redemption
Judgment is coming for those that do not fear the Lord. But, there is hope for those that follow God because of the redemption we have in Christ. We now look forward to Christ coming in glory, when his people will be saved, judgement will come and all will be restored.
While we wait hopefully on that day, we’re reminded to remain faithful to the Lord in the waiting. Waiting to show ourselves to be God fearers, having reverence and love for Him, and taking His name to the lost in hopes that they avoid the coming judgement.
Malachi is a reminder that those that don’t have faith, those that do not fear God, those that have dead religion will perish like chaff and stubble. For us that fear God, it’s a call to stay the course, to keep the faith, to be refined by fire into the image of Christ.
