Malachi 3:8-9

Reader! look at those charges spiritually, and then ask, in what doth the robbery of God now consist? Is it not in denying, or disbelieving his covenant relations, and word, and oath, and promises? Is it not in slighting God's dear Son, and setting up idols of self-righteousness in our own hearts? Is it not in thinking light of the Holy Ghost's work in the soul, as the sole means of conversion, and bringing the heart to God? Ponder over these things.
