It is easy with all that has happened in the last two weeks to become cynical; cynical about humanity and even cynical about God. The author of Hebrews wrote “Now in putting everything in subjection to Christ, the Father left nothing outside His control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to Him.” Sometimes this disconnect between the reality of Christ’s reign and the appearance of it makes us cynical about God’s promises. The people of Malachi’s day were also cynical. “Where is the God of justice?” they cried. But God patiently deals with critics and cynics. Join Pastor Wheeler as he examines Malachi’s prophecy of the coming of Christ as the only answer for the cynicism of Malachi’s day and of ours.
