 1.  Unfaithful in our fellowship with others.

 We are called to love one another because we share:

  • The same faith

 2.  Unfaithful to our Father in heaven.

 The Israelites unfaithfulness was evident when:

  • The people's choice in marriage allowed for idolatry

 God's anger towards inter-marriage

  • Had nothing to do with race
  • It was all about religion

 3.  Unfaithful to our families.

God declares that he is the sole:

  • Authority in marriage
  • Administrator in marriage

 God's plan to prevent broken marriage is seen in his:

  • Attitude towards divorce
  • Admonition to pursue faithfulness with your spouse

Malachi's message today has practical application for the
