Malachi • God's Messenger Through the Centuries
Malachi 2:13-16

God told his people that their worship of him was unacceptable because they had divorced their spouses.  In this message we look at this passage and other Scriptures to determine how the Bible views divorce and if there are ever circumstances where it is allowed. We also look at what makes worship acceptable or unacceptable to God.

Malachi • God's Messenger Through the Centuries

Series Description

Malachi is the final book in the Old Testament and was the final prophetic voice of God until John the Baptist came some 400 years later. Malachi’s prophecy was given to the nation of Israel following their return home after a 70 year captivity in Babylon. Hopes for a return to pre-captivity prosperity were not panning out, however, and God sent Malachi to inform the people of his unceasing love for them. But he also pointed out the real source of Israel’s problems and the real solution to the sin that continued to plague them, and it is this message from God that continues to be proclaimed to us down through the centuries.
