MALACHI 3:6-18
6 “I the LORD do not change. So
you, the descendants of Jacob, are
not destroyed. 7 Ever since the time
of your ancestors you have turned
away from my decrees and have not
kept them.

MALACHI 3:6-18
7 Return to me, and I will return to
you,” says the LORD Almighty. “But
you ask, ‘How are we to return?’8 “Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet
you rob me. “But you ask, ‘How are we
robbing you?’ “In tithes and offerings.

MALACHI 3:6-18
9 You are under a curse—your wholenation—because you are robbingme. 10 Bring the whole tithe into thestorehouse, that there may be food inmy house. Test me in this,” saysthe LORD Almighty, “and see if I willnot throw open the floodgates ofheaven

10 and pour out so much blessingthat there will not be room enoughto store it. 11 I will prevent pestsfrom devouring your crops, and thevines in your fields will not droptheir fruit before it is ripe,” saysthe LORD Almighty.

MALACHI 3:6-18
12 “Then all the nations will call youblessed, for yours will be a delightfulland,” says the LORD Almighty. 13 “Youhave spoken arrogantly against me,”says the LORD. “Yet you ask, ‘Whathave we said against you?’

MALACHI 3:6-18
14 “You have said, ‘It is futile to
serve God. What do we gain by
carrying out his requirements and
going about like mourners before
the LORD Almighty?
![Page 8: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
15 But now we call the
arrogant blessed. Certainly
evildoers prosper, and even
when they put God to the test,
they get away with it.’”
![Page 9: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
16 Then those who feared
the LORD talked with each other,
and the LORD listened and
heard.
![Page 10: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
16 A scroll of remembrance was
written in his presence
concerning those who
feared the LORD and honored
his name.
![Page 11: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
17 “On the day when I act,” says
the LORD Almighty, “they will be
my treasured possession. I will
spare them, just as a father has
compassion and spares his son who
serves him.
![Page 12: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
18 And you will again see the
distinction between the
righteous and the wicked,
between those who serve God
and those who do not.
![Page 13: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
EXPLORING ROADS IN THE
BIBLE
![Page 14: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sections of the Bible are like
roads. Some we travel on
frequently, some infrequently,
some, perhaps, never at all.
![Page 15: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
We would like to explore all
the roads in the Bible and go
down to see what God has
said and what God has done
and what that means for us.
![Page 16: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The question that is supposed
here is, will man rob God?
Some of you have never even
thought of this section of the
Bible.
![Page 17: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Maybe some of you even grew up
in church, and you’ve never taken
a look at Malachi 3. Some of you,
however, have heard a lot about
it, lots of sermons on this section
of the Bible.
![Page 18: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
And if you’re very familiar with it
because it was a well-worn path at
your previous church, you may
have come from something called
prosperity theology.
![Page 19: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
It’s real timely because we’re at
that time of year when people are
giving and receiving gifts,
generosity tends to increase.
![Page 20: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
So in the providence of God, it’s
all very, very timely. But before
God talks about wealth, he talks
about worship.
![Page 22: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Before he talks about us, he talks
about himself and what he tells us
is that he is unchanging.
![Page 23: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
This is a bedrock fundamental
teaching of the Bible that God is
unchanging.
![Page 24: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
6 “I the LORD do not change. So
you, the descendants of Jacob,
are not destroyed.
![Page 25: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
MALACHI 3:6-18
7 Ever since the time of your
ancestors you have turned
away from my decrees and have
not kept them.
![Page 26: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The whole book is a series of
arguments that they’re having with
God.
![Page 27: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
They’re actually giving
accusations toward God disguised
as questions for God, and they
are arguing and fighting with him
here.
![Page 28: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The basic idea is this: they
fundamentally disagree with God.
God says do this; they don’t want
to.
![Page 29: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
God says this is right; they say it’s
wrong.
They’re in a position of
disagreeing with God.
![Page 30: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Here’s what God says, “I don’t
change.”
What that means is they need to
change, and we are no different.
![Page 31: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
God says, “I do not “Change.
I’m not moving.”
When we talk of God, we talk of
his attributes.
![Page 32: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Here we see a clear declaration of
his immutability, which means
that God is unchanging.
![Page 33: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
And this is absolutely essential:
God does not change,
We must change.
![Page 34: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
We cannot remain
unchanged and demand that
God change.
![Page 35: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
God has no sin.
![Page 36: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
God makes no
mistakes.
![Page 37: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
God has nothing to
learn.
![Page 38: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
God has no way to
mature.
![Page 39: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
There’s nothing in
God that should
change.
![Page 40: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
There’s everything in
us that must change.
![Page 41: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
And praise God that
he’s unchanging.
![Page 42: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
God is a loving
Father.
![Page 43: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
God is not current;
![Page 44: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
God is eternal.
![Page 45: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
God doesn’t need to
change;
We need to change.
![Page 46: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
God doesn’t change
with the times;
God is working on
change all the time.
![Page 47: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
There’s an analogy in
Scripture that’s
frequently used: it’s of
a potter and clay.
![Page 48: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
God says, “I am the
Potter, you are the clay.”
![Page 49: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
God says, “I shape you. You
don’t shape me. I make you
into what I want. You don’t
make me into what you
want.”
![Page 50: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
HEBREW 13:8

yesterday, today and forever,
and it’s a good thing for his
children.”

MALACHI 3:8
8 “Will a mere mortal rob God?
Yet you rob me. “But you ask,
‘How are we robbing you?’
“In tithes and offerings.

Bring the full tithe into the
storehouse, so that there may
be food in my house

Sometimes pastors are
cowards when it comes to
finances because we have fear
of you, more than fear of the
Lord.
![Page 55: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
God doesn’t have that kind of
fear.
God talks of money a lot, money,
wealth, stewardship, investments,
possessions.
![Page 56: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
If you look at Matthew, Mark,
Luke and John, the four Gospels,
25 percent of all Jesus’ instruction
and words are on money, wealth,
possessions, and stewardship.
![Page 57: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
MATTHEW 6:21

there your heart will be also”

Giving is an indicator of your
first love.

If we love God, we will use
money but if we love money,
we will use God to get more
money.
![Page 60: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
The question is, what’s the
goal,
God or greed?
![Page 61: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)

God says something to one
person or one group of people,

everybody gets that.

God does something that
applies to everywhere,
everyone, all the time.

Jesus died on the cross in
your place for your sins.
![Page 68: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
If you turn from sin and trust
in him, all your sin is forgiven
and you’ll be with him
forever.
![Page 69: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)

too.

That’s not just for one person or

dying on the cross for the sin of
the world.

God made the earth.
God gave it to them.
![Page 75: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
God says, “Because you’re not
tithing to me, you’re robbing
from me,” and a tithe literally
means a tenth. Ten percent off
the top, first fruits off the gross
not the net.
![Page 76: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
They don’t see that God is part
owner and that he has every right
to expect a percentage of their
income.
![Page 77: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
“You’re robbing me, and then the
result is you’re cursed.
The reason why things are so hard is
because you’re stealing from me.”
![Page 78: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Make up on all your giving, catch up.
Give what you were supposed to
give, and what will happen is, a
blessing will come down from
heaven.
![Page 79: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
He said that literally it would flood
down from heaven.
That’s the deal.
The big idea here is this: all the
blessings come down from heaven.
![Page 80: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
“Every good and perfect gift comes
from above, from our Heavenly
Father.”
Ultimately all blessing comes down
from God to his people.
![Page 81: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
This all foreshadows the coming of
the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the
greatest blessing of all, and he comes
down from heaven.
![Page 82: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
The gates of heaven open, and down
comes the greatest blessing in the
history of the world, the Lord Jesus
Christ.
![Page 83: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
God becomes a man. That’s what we
celebrate every Christmas season.
The problem is they’re stealing.
The answer is they need to stop
stealing and start giving.
![Page 84: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)

No! It’s a one-time promise with all-
time principles.
This was God’s interaction with his
people, and there’s a promise there
and for us, there are principles there.
![Page 86: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
A promise is “It will come to pass
just like this.”
A principle is, “This is usually how it
works.”
![Page 87: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)

Principles are about wise living,
cause and effect, how things tend
to work according to how God
has wired the world.

God gave us the earth.
God made us in his image and

God gave us the Lord Jesus Christ.
God gave us the Holy Spirit.
God gave us forgiveness of sin.
God gave us righteousness.

God gave us eternal life.
God gave us gifts to serve

God’s a giver.
God so loved the world that he gave
his only Son.
God’s generous.

He’s telling the people in
Malachi, “You’re committing
adultery.
You’re getting divorced wrongly.
You’re stealing money.
![Page 94: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
There’s all these troubles and issues.
Bring them to me.
We’re gonna forgive it, sort it out,
and work it out. Bring me the worst.”
![Page 95: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
And then God says, “Tithe, bring me
your best.”
God wants us to bring him our worst,
all of our sin, and our best—our
wealth.
![Page 96: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
What happens is people get more
excited about bringing God their
worst than their best.
![Page 97: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Give Jesus your sin.
And your wealth.
“I don’t know, It’s unclear to me.”
![Page 98: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)

And God gives Jesus, God gives his

Who you are is most clearly seen in
how you spend.
I would encourage you to look at
your budget from this past year and
next year and ask, “What is this as an

James says that faith without works is
dead.
Faith is a devotion to God in here
that results in a changed life out
there.
![Page 104: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
So James says, “You can’t have faith
for God in here and not change life
out there.”
Malachi is kind of like James in that
way. He’s saying, “You say you have
faith, but it doesn’t show up in your
finances.”
![Page 105: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
So faith without giving is dead.
You can’t say you love God in here,
but it doesn’t affect how you spend
out there because out of the overflow
of the heart, the wallet spends.
![Page 106: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)

These people are not changed.
They are arguing and fighting with
God, as some of us are.
And God doesn’t say, “Well, get
your hearts right and when your
hearts are right, then start giving.”
![Page 108: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
God says, “Start giving” because he
knows that, that will help to get the
heart right.
So God says, “Start giving and that
will be the process by which you start
changing.”

2 Corinthians 8 and 9 is the place in
the New Testament that talks about
giving the most clearly and the most
extendedly.

It says that our giving should be, as
believers, cheerful.
“I love the Lord. I’m glad to give,”
It should be sacrificial.
Whatever is sacrificial for you.
![Page 130: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/130.jpg)
It’s regular, and it’s also proportional
so that those who make more give
more, and that those who make less
give less, but all give something.

In FCC majority of us are tithers,
glory to God.
All workers are required to tithes.
That’s why we are blessed.
We are just weak in Missions giving.
![Page 133: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)

In giving it is increased as well
because you to give 10 percent and
cheerfully.
![Page 135: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)
You need to give to the Lord.
And whatever that is, if it’s cheerful,
regular, sacrificial, proportional, then
do that, and don’t rob God.
![Page 136: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
What I want is that make 10% as a
floor and not a ceiling in your giving.
![Page 137: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)
This is a good place to start a life of
generosity, and by God’s grace,
aspire to increase our giving through
the course of our life as we mature in
everything.
![Page 138: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/138.jpg)
You want to grow in Bible
knowledge.
You want to grow in service.
You want to grow in prayer.
You should aspire to grow in giving.
![Page 139: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/139.jpg)
It’s part of your spiritual
development and part of your
spiritual growth.

The Bible summarizes that as the
heart, the seat, the sum, the center,
the decision-making headquarters of
your soul.
![Page 142: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/142.jpg)
We may be talking about your
wallet, but ultimately, it’s directed by
your heart, and giving reveals your
heart.
![Page 143: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/143.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
13 “You have spoken
arrogantly against me,” says
the LORD.
“Yet you ask, ‘What have we said
against you?’
![Page 144: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/144.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
14 “You have said, ‘It is futile to
serve God. What do we gain by
carrying out his requirements and
going about like mourners before
the LORD Almighty?
![Page 145: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/145.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
15 But now we call the
arrogant blessed. Certainly
evildoers prosper, and even when
they put God to the test, they get
away with it.’”
![Page 146: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/146.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
16 Then those who feared
the LORD talked with each other,
and the LORD listened and heard.
![Page 147: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/147.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
16 A scroll of remembrance was
written in his presence concerning
those who feared the LORD and
honored his name.
![Page 148: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/148.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
17 “On the day when I act,” says
the LORD Almighty, “they will be
my treasured possession. I will
spare them, just as a father has
compassion and spares his son who
serves him.
![Page 149: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/149.jpg)
MALACHI 3:13-18
18 And you will again see the
distinction between the
righteous and the wicked, between
those who serve God and those who
do not.
![Page 150: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/150.jpg)
Why would we give to the Lord?
What profit do we get?
Why would we serve the Lord?
How does it benefit us?
![Page 151: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/151.jpg)
This is consumerism.
Consumerism is a religion, and it’s
not a new one.
![Page 152: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/152.jpg)
And a consumer knows what they
want, and they look at a religion and
ask if they get what they want without
giving very much.
![Page 153: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/153.jpg)
How many of you have approached
our church, a church in ministry, and
said, “Well, if I give, what do I get?
If I serve, how do they serve me?
Will I receive more than I give, and
if not, what use is it to me?”
![Page 154: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/154.jpg)
God doesn’t think like that.
![Page 155: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/155.jpg)
God doesn’t look at you and say,
“Where’s my profit?”
![Page 156: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/156.jpg)
God doesn’t look at you and say,
“I’ve served you.
![Page 157: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/157.jpg)
When are you going to serve me
back?
![Page 158: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/158.jpg)
When are you going to match my
gift?”
![Page 159: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/159.jpg)
We can’t match his gift.
![Page 160: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/160.jpg)
It’s grace.
It’s unmerited.
It’s undeserved.
It’s inexhaustible.
The ungodly asks, “What’s in it for
me?” And he says the godly ask,
“Why would he choose me as his
treasured possession?”
![Page 161: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/161.jpg)

What is your most treasured
possession?
![Page 163: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/163.jpg)
What is the one thing that if God
took it, you would be arguing and
fighting with him as they are in
Malachi?
![Page 164: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/164.jpg)
You’re like, “God and I would have
a war if he took my spouse, my kid,
my house, my job, my car, my
health. If he took that—my
reputation—we would have a war
because that’s my treasured
possession.”
![Page 165: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/165.jpg)
Here’s what God says, “You’re my
treasured possession.”
You belong to him.
All of you belongs to him, and he
treasures you.
![Page 166: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/166.jpg)
He values you.
He purchased you through the gift of
his own Son, the Lord Jesus Christ,
that you would be his children, his
people.
![Page 167: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/167.jpg)
Well, this changes everything.
If we are his treasured possession,
then he is our treasured possession.
![Page 168: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/168.jpg)
Nothing compares to the Lord.
Nothing is as valuable as the Lord.
Nothing matters as much as the
Lord.
![Page 169: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/169.jpg)
And even if we lose our treasured
possessions, we’ll never lose our
treasured possession.
![Page 170: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/170.jpg)
The world doesn’t understand this
God.
![Page 171: MALACHI #6 - WILL MAN ROB GOD - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021503/587c5a681a28ab633c8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/171.jpg)
I need you to love this God because
he has loved you, and if he’s willing
to make us his treasured
possession—it is only fitting and right
that we would choose him as our
most treasured possession.
