In this latest episode of "Pondering the Bible," Ken Corkins and Pastor Rocky Ellison delve into chapter one of Malachi, focusing on verses 6-14. The discussion explores God's displeasure with the priests and people of Israel, who have been offering defiled and substandard sacrifices. The episode highlights the significance of offering pure and honorable sacrifices to God and touches on how this Old Testament lesson translates to contemporary Christian practice, particularly in terms of bringing one's best to worship and the Lord's table. Rocky Ellison also shares insights on the role of clergy in guiding their congregations based on biblical standards rather than personal authority. The episode concludes with a discussion about the importance of not bringing a "bad offering" from one's heart.
