This week as we continue our sermon series looking at the book of Malachi we turn our attention to chapter two verses 1 – 9 and the importance of teachers in our lives. We unpack the role that priests (teachers of God’s Word) had, to be an example for the sake of those that follow them.
In light of the New Testament and in today’s world, we as Christians, are God’s chosen people, a royal priesthood – therefore we are all teachers of God’s Word and our words and our actions teach those that look up to us more than we could possibly imagine.
Paul reminds Titus in the New Testament the importance of this when he says; “in everything set them an example by doing what is good.” Titus 2:7 (NIV)
Today at 6pm (NZ Time) we are hosting ‘Church Online’ as a facebook live video event via our Wellington City Corps and Wellington Citadel Band pages. (Link below also).
Our weekly Sunday meetings feature both the Wellington Citadel Band and the Wellington City Worship Team.
As we look at the many lessons that we can learn from the book of Malachi I hope and pray that we will take on board the many aspects of our faith that God would have us adopt – so that we can endeavour to live God-honouring lives in our day and age.
Especially if we are to be examples of what it means to live out our Christian lives in such a way that people will be drawn to the ‘life and hope’ that we espouse as we reach out into our local communities and beyond. For God is calling us back to what He intended for us and our lives – To get back to where we once belonged!
May God bless you each as you head into the coming week 🙂
