Don't Leave God in the Foyer (Malachi 4)

We have a God of preparation and as we look to begin the gospel of John, we are preparing ourselves for the receiving of the Lord Jesus Christ: the Gospel, His life, His ministry, His death and resurrection. God used the prophet Malachi to prepare their hearts to ready them, and even indite them, on the areas where they needed to stop putting Him second, to stop putting Him in the foyer. In this preparation sermon, we explore the life and time of Malachi and how we may not fall into the same trap of apathy and contempt toward God; so that when we witness the ministry of Jesus, we can receive it wholeheartedly; some for the first time, and others a renewal in their walk and faith.
