Mal_2:4-17

That My covenant might be with Levi.



The minister of Divine truth



I. As he always should be.

1. A man divinely called.

2. A man of profound reverence.

3. A man of moral truthfulness.

4. A man of practical devotion.

5. A man of the highest usefulness.

6. A man of the highest intelligence.



II. As he often is. The false minister is here represented--

1. As swerving from the right.

2. As leading the people astray.

3. As perverting the truth.

4. As becoming contemptible.

Gracious heaven raise up men for our pulpits, so high in culture, so gifted in faculty, so Christly in love, so invincible in duty, so independent in action as shall not only counteract the downward tendency to ruin, but shall attract to it with reverence the intellect of the age. (Homilist.)
