What does the Bible say about the messenger of the covenant?

Answered in 5 sources

The messenger of the covenant refers to Christ, who brings the promises of God and fulfills the covenant established for His people.

The messenger of the covenant, as described in Malachi 3:1, is identified as Jesus Christ, who comes to fulfill the promises of God. He is the one who purifies and prepares His people to offer acceptable worship to the Lord. This concept is essential because it illustrates that Christ is both the messenger and the fulfillment of the covenant, intricately involved in the salvation and reconciliation of His people with God. His coming was anticipated as a momentous event and symbolizes God’s engagement with humanity through the covenant established before all time.
