Malachi 2 · Grade 3
Don't We All Have One Father?
Read the Story
God spoke to the priests. He said a good priest is like Levi long ago. The law of truth was in his mouth. He walked with God in peace and turned many away from sin.
A priest's lips should keep knowledge, because he is the messenger of Yahweh of Armies. But these priests had turned away from the path. They caused many to stumble.
God asked, don't we all have one father? Hasn't one God created us? So why do we deal unfaithfully with each other? God wanted his people to be faithful to him and to one another.
