MALACHI 2:17 “You have wearied the Lord with your words. Yet you say ‘How have we wearied Him?’ In that you say, ‘Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and He delight in them,’ or ‘Where is the God of justice?'”
MALACHI 3:13 “‘Your words have been arrogant (strong) against me’,” says the Lord. ‘Yet you say, ‘What have we spoken against Thee?’ You have said, ‘It is vain to sere God; and what profit is it that we have kept His charge, and that we have walked in mourning before the Lord of hosts?’ So now we call the arrogant blessed; not only are the doers of wickedness built up, but they also test God and escape.”
