scriptural one act- 265 jas 120 27 has been so misunderstood that to many it means the same as sal vation whereas it actually refers to a system of life and doctrine maiaehi the last of the prophets until john the baptist stresses the importance of reality in connection with the things of god a strikin feature f this book is the eightfold controversy of jehovah with his people concerning charges brought against them and their brazen attempts to defend their own lack of faithfulness in each particular notice chapters 12 0 7 211 17 and 3 7 s 10 again and again the people are charged with grave departure in heart from the lord whom they outwardly professed to serve and time and again with xldest effrontery they dared to contradict gods testimony to their unhappy state asking for proofs of their delinquencies and manifesting an utterly calloused conscience it seems incredible that in so short time after the revival nehemiah and ezra the remnant should have lapsed into such a condition but has not the same thing occurred many times during the christian centuries it is so easy tor second or third generation believers to forget gods dealings with their fathers malachis words therefore should speak loudly to us today particularly to those who have to a certain extent inherited a place among any group of christians once distinguished by soundness in the faith and separation from the world we are almost at the end of another dispensation and we may well examine our ways in the light of cods word to his people of old verso by verse mai 11 the burden of the word of the lord to israel by maiaehi thus abruptly the book begins with no information con- erning the prophet himself he is hidden that the lord might be seen and heard xote that though the message is addressed to the rem nant of jtidah god calls them israel though the nation was scattered and divided the lord recognized one people still verse g if i then be a father where is mine honour jehovah was a father to israel they gloried in being recognized as his people yet they failed to give him the reverence due to his name when charged with despising that name they impudently asked wherein have we despised thy name they were so calloused in their con science that gods word did not move them verse 7 ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar and ye say wherein have we polluted thee they had lost all sense of what wa suited for the altar of the lord but again when charged with their offense they flippantly replied in a way that showed they were utterly indifferent to the wrong done to god when people got into a low blackslidden state they do not respond to reproof or correction verse s if ye offer the blind and lame unto thy gover nor will he be pleased with thee they brought to the altar of jehovah decrepit and blemished beasts such as they would not have presumed to oiler to any earthly ruler yet god is the supreme gover nor of the universe verse 9 and now i pray you beseech god the prophet speaks ironically how could they expect god to hear their prayers when thev were behaving so inconsist ently chap 2 13 covering the altar of the lord with tears with weep ing and with crying they made a great pretense of penitence and of grief as they prostrated themselves before the altar but there was no reality they were but adding to their offenses by their vain obla tions verse 14 the lord hath been witness oetween thee and the wife of thy youth against whom thou hast dealt treacherously where the fear of god is not in the heart one soon learn- to think lightly of the most sacred of all contracts so that even the marriage vows are forgotten and looseness is mani fested in every relationship of life is it not so today wherever gods word is despised broken hornet abound with all their attendant evils and the end will be increasing misery and wretchedness chap 3 7 return unto me and i will return unto you saith the ixird this is always the way to lasting blessing god is quick to respond to the penitent soul but israel saw no reason to return so unconscious were they of their true condition before god verse s will a man rob god yet ye have robbed me in tithes and offerings the tenth of all their income belonged to god but this they had fonrouen by uing his tithes for themselves they were guilty of robbing him is not this alsa true of many today surely if thk show mist to ox the greatest show on earth thrilled tickled and amazed kids from six to sixty and over recently at the own ing of its regular seasonal run in new yorks madison square garden true to the traditions of her profession mrs lulu adams billed as the worlds only woman clown appeared in her usual role despite the tragic and sudden death of her husband albertino famous veteran clown on the eve of the shows opening seemingly con cerned only with the crowds laughter she presented a brave- hearted example of the tradi tional the show must go on her husband with whom she had toured the world as a clown team died of a heart attack while making radio broadcast the picture allows mrs adams in her dressing room after the show putting away her props while gazing sadly at a portrait of her late husband a jew under law was obligated to see that the lesson is not lost uion us but that we ever sanctify the lord god in our hearts and honor him in our lives give the tenth to god a christian under grace cannot do less and be guiltless verse ye are cursed with a curse for ye have robbed nie even this whole nation the law pro nounced a curse on all who violated its precepts no such curse is invoked under grace but shall we as christians forget our responsi bilities to give as god has prospered us because we are not under law but under grace verse 10 bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse and prove me now if i will not pour you out a blessing that there shall not be room enough to receive it it was a challenge to test the word of the lord he stoixl ready to bless if they were ready to acknowledge his authority over their lives and their possessions verse 11 i will rebuke the devourer for your sakes when god is duly honored he will see to it that his people do not lose by what they do for or give to him that which would blight and ruin he will deal with in a way to insure blessing verse 12 all nations shall call you blessed for ye shall be a delightsome land unhappily malachis message fell upon deaf ears at least in the main and so the day came when israel lost their land and became wanderers among the nations where instead of being a blessing they have been the means of grief and harm jer 249 the heart ttf the lesson men are prone to think that god is pleased with empty religion forms and ceremonies while the heart is far from him his contro versy with israel was on this very account they pretended to great love and respect for his name and his holy temple but they were living in selfishness and indiffer ence to his revealed will therefore he could not do for them that which his loving heart desired yet he called upon them to repent and to get right with him promising to undertake for them if they but sought his face in sincerity let us faveqf united states existing regulations make it illegal for any canadian resident to retain in his possession more than 10 in united states cash you are required to turn in to your bank for ex change into
