Following our 3-part "parenthetical" on idolatry, we return to our primary series on the Hebrew word, malaki (in distinction from the book that bears this name).

In episode 1 we encountered the very first instance of Malaki, My Angel, in the Bible. It was on Mount Sinai after God had delivered the law, proclaimed and ratified the covenant with Israel. He then promised to send His Angel with them to the promised land, where He would drive out the inhabitants before them if they would simply listen to His voice and obey. It was clear that this angel is the preincarnate Lord Jesus, and that this was his formal introduction to the people.

In episode 2 we approached the second appearance of Malaki in scripture, and in this episode we confront it. Like so much of the history of God's chosen people, it is a tragic story of failure with hope attached to it. The failure to listen to and obey the Word of God has the inevitable consequences of separation from God.

We explore that theme in this episode.

The Bible is every Christian's primary source material. Like the Bereans, we must make it our priority, our authority, our delight in learning from God directly from His own voice. And this includes podcasts, like ours. If we can help you know God and His word, fantastic! It is our job to work ourselves out of a job!

"Return to ME and I will return to you, says the LORD of hosts." Malachi 3:7.

We really want YOU to study God's word, to listen to His voice and obey.

Either God is God, or ... He is not

With our Transcendent GOD – Being, Truth and Value – there can be NO COMPROMISE

We are the "neo-Fundies," unashamed and proudly proclaiming God's Word as Truth, Life and Light!

'For we are not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes'
