Romans: The Gospel According To Paul … Part 10

Published: August 10, 2020
We began this series from the perspective that our time is short and we should make sure we're ordering what's left of it around the Lord's priorities for us.

A Bible Study by Jack Kelley

We continue our study of the Book of Malachi with chapter 3. As we’ll see the Lord isn’t finished with His criticism of Israel’s behavior, and as was the case with the previous chapters some of His complaints about them could just as easily be made about us.
