Malachi 3:13-15

The Message

The Difference Between Serving God and Not Serving Him

¹³ God says, “You have spoken hard, rude words to me.

“You ask, ‘When did we ever do that?’

^14-15 “When you said, ‘It doesn’t pay to serve God. What do we ever get out of it? When we did what he said and went around with long faces, serious about God-of-the-Angel-Armies, what difference did it make? Those who take life into their own hands are the lucky ones. They break all the rules and get ahead anyway. They push God to the limit and get by with it.’”
