“Return Unto Me and I Will Return Unto You”
Malachi warns the wicked who continue to blatantly disregard the Lord’s commands and who physically or spiritually stone the prophets, and pleads with them to return unto the Lord. Distance from the Lord and his infinite goodness“ is self-imposed through wickedness, obedience causes the distance to narrow. He stands at the door (see Revelation 3:20), ever ready to enter; he stands ready to welcome us into his tender loving watchcare, but we must come unto him in faith and righteousness.”
