Big Questions Part 6: What Does God Think About Sin? (Malachi 3:2-6)

God is committed to transforming us as His holy people. When we encounter His presence, we shouldn't be surprised when we find ourselves feeling undone, powerless in comparison to Him. Like a refining fire, God melts our hearts, purifying us as he reveals sin we didn't even realize we were carrying. He makes us pleasing to Himself, even as the gospel also pierces our hearts, testifying to the sinfulness of sin and setting us free to live differently. Finally, God protects us through His covenant promise made to Abraham and extended to us through Jesus Christ. God loves us too much to leave us in our sin; He is committed to removing it from our lives and separating us from its destructive effects.
