    A Swift Witness | Malachi 3:5-6

    Everything around us is changing. Our circumstances change. People change. Nations change. We ourselves change. But Scripture points us to one unshakable truth: God does not change. In this expositional sermon from Malachi 3:5–6, Pastor Brandon Scroggins focuses on two eternal realities: judgment is coming, and God is unchanging. Malachi describes the Lord drawing near as a “swift witness” against sin. God’s coming judgment reveals His perfect justice, His hatred of sin, and mankind’s desperate need for forgiveness in Jesus Christ. Yet the same passage also gives extraordinary comfort to God’s people: “For I the LORD do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed.” — Malachi 3:6 The doctrine of God’s immutability means that God does not change in His nature, character, purposes, promises, or covenant faithfulness. His justice does not change—but neither do His mercy, goodness, faithfulness, or promises to His people. In a world of constant change, the Christian’s security is found by tethering ourselves to the One who never changes. Sermon: A Swift Witness Text: Malachi 3:5–6 Preacher: Pastor Brandon Scroggins Church: Reformation Baptist Church  Key themes in this sermon include: the judgment of God, the fear of God, repentance, forgiveness in Christ, the works of the flesh, the fruit of the Spirit, God’s covenant faithfulness, and the doctrine of divine immutability. “And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” — 1 Corinthians 6:11 #Malachi #ImmutabilityOfGod #ReformedBaptist #ExpositoryPreaching #GodDoesNotChange #JudgmentOfGod #1689BaptistConfession #ReformedTheology #ChristianSermon #ReformationBaptistChurch

    A Refiner and a Purifier | Malachi 3:1-6

    What is God really doing when He allows affliction and suffering into our lives? In this expository message from Malachi 3:1-6, Pastor Brandon Scroggins of Reformation Baptist Church continues our verse-by-verse series through Malachi, showing that the God who promises to bring justice is also the God who refines and purifies His people through the fire — sanctifying us right in the middle of our suffering. Picking up from last week's study of Malachi 2:17 ("Where is the God of justice?"), this message unpacks three movements in the text: the coming messenger of God (v.1), the purifying work of God (v.2-3), and the pleasing worship of God (v.4) — closing with seven practical, biblical answers to the question every believer eventually asks: why does God allow bad things to happen to His children?

    The God of Justice | Malachi 2:17

    Why do the wicked prosper? Why does God allow evil and suffering? Where is God when justice seems delayed? In this sermon from Reformation Baptist Church in Wetumpka, Alabama, Pastor Brandon Scroggins preaches from Malachi 2:17, where God’s people ask a question that still confronts us today: “Where is the God of justice?” Malachi exposes three searching questions: Have we wearied God? Why do the wicked prosper? And where is the God of justice? Through Malachi, Habakkuk, Psalm 73, Isaiah, Genesis, Luke, Romans, and 2 Peter, Pastor Brandon examines one of the most difficult questions of the Christian faith—the apparent prosperity of the wicked, the suffering of God’s people, and the seeming delay of divine justice. God’s delayed justice is not evidence of His absence, weakness, or indifference. God is sovereign. God is good. God is patient. And God will judge the world with perfect righteousness in His appointed time. But the doctrine of divine justice should also turn our eyes inward. Before demanding justice against others, we must recognize that we ourselves are sinners deserving judgment. The good news of the gospel is that God’s justice and mercy meet at the cross of Jesus Christ. Christ bore the judgment His people deserved so that sinners who repent and believe may be forgiven. And for every injustice that remains unresolved in this life, Scripture gives the Christian confidence: the Judge of all the earth will do what is just.

    Profaning the Covenant | Malachi 2:10-12

    What happens when God’s covenant people begin to live faithlessly toward God and toward one another? In Malachi 2:10–12, the Lord confronts His people with the seriousness of covenant treachery. Though they share one Father and one Creator, they have dealt faithlessly with one another, profaned what God has made holy, and attempted to maintain outward worship while disregarding covenant faithfulness in their lives. Pastor Brandon Scroggins shows how the problem develops like falling dominoes: doubting the love of God produces corrupted worship, broken relationships, compromised families, and ultimately the loss of God’s blessing. Yet the passage also points us toward the faithfulness of God and our need for the grace found in Jesus Christ and the New Covenant. This sermon examines three movements in Malachi’s warning: 1. Betraying God’s People Because believers have one Father and belong to one covenant family, our personal faithfulness has consequences for the whole body. Christianity is not merely an individual relationship with God—we are members of one another. 2. Profaning God’s Holiness Judah’s intermarriage with those devoted to false gods demonstrated a deeper spiritual betrayal. Scripture warns believers against covenant unions that compromise loyalty to Christ and reminds us that the church is now the temple of the living God. 3. Severing God’s Blessing Malachi closes this section with a severe warning against outward worship coupled with inward rebellion. God will not be mocked by religious appearances while His covenant is knowingly despised. The call is to remember whose we are. God has been faithful to His people, and those who belong to Christ are called to walk in covenant faithfulness toward Him, toward the church, and within the family. 📖 Primary Text: Malachi 2:10–12 🎙️ Pastor: Brandon Scroggins ⛪ Reformation Baptist Church
