TOWARD GOD LESSON TEXT Malachi 3:7-18. GOLDEN TEXT Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me how herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3:10. Spiritually sick and desperately so was Israel in the days of Mal achi. The nation had been released from captivity in Babylon and had been back in their own land for almost a century. The outburst of religious enthusiasm which charac terized their return had resulted in the rebuilding of the temple (Ezra 1:1-4). In this they were encour aged by Haggai, as we recall from our lesson of last Sunday. They had later been led by Nehemiah in re newed interest In spiritual things and in . the rebuilding of the city wall, but now again they had turned away from God. Malachi came with what one might call God's last word before judgment upon their sins. The lesson centers around tour words. . I. Apostasy, "Ye have turned aside" (v. 7, R, V.). This was God's complaint against His people. In spite of His blessings upon them, they had inter married with the heathen, they had dealt treacherously with their breth , ren, and had neglected to worship God. What was even worse, they felt no conviction about their sin and denied that they owed God any thing, not even the debt of common gratitude. Read the Insolent, self-confident questions and assertions ' of the people in verses 7, 8, ; 13 and 14. Think how perfectly they fit the atti tude of thousands of unbelievers and backslidden Christians in our day. One might almost think that Mal achi were reading the secret thoughts of our own people, and pos sibly of our own hearts. II. Robbery. Illness commonly has Its center of Infection, whether It be physical or spiritual sickness. Malachi struck at a very vital point when he re vealed that the heart of Israel's dif ficulty was dishonesty toward God. . That dishonesty reflected itself in spiritual things, but, since Malachi was talking to an arguing genera tion (just like ours); he gave them a concrete illustration of their deceit they had withheld from God the tithes and offerings. Men who would never cheat the telephone company out of a nickel will rob God consistently Sunday after Sunday by sanctimoniously slipping a thin dime into the collec tion plate. If that is all a man can and should give, God will bless it and multiply it for His glory. But certainly it does not befit one who lives in luxury to give God's work the smallest piece of change which he can decently slip Into the plate. Tithing may be said to be an Old Testament principle. Doubtless It is also true that the principle of New Testament Christianity is that all we have belongs to God, but often the one who hides behind that fact does not give as much as the people of Old Testament times. Is that honest? III. Judgment. God is love, but that does not mean that His patience is without limit nor that He will forever with hold judgment. He says, through Malachi (v. 9), "Ye are cursed with curse." The blessing has been withheld (v. 10). The devourer is In the land (v. 11). He promised them release and blessing if they repented and returned to the right way, which obviously means that their failure to do so would bring judgment We know that Israel despised God's warning and to this day is paying for its sia Will America be wise enough to heed God's call? IV. Blessing. So often the loving God bad to apeak through His prophets of im pending Judgment on sin, but how gracious He is in that He always holds out the promise of blessing for repentance and obedience. Look st the precious promise In verse 10. Thousands of Christians join the writer in saying. "That is true in A. D. 1940 just as it was in 400 D. C" Read verses II and 11 Note that our God is not only a great God. but a good God. Consider the blessings of spiritual fellowship the certainty of victory revealed in verses 18 and 17. One marvels that Israel could resist such a loving plea just as one wonders also why men of our own day of God's grace still resist His gracious invitation. A Helpful Heart It is a fine thing to do kindly, helpful deeds. It is one of the very finest in the world. But there is something finer than the helpful hand; it is the helpful heart : End Is Death There is a way that seemeth right unto a roan, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
