But Scripture reveals a fuller picture of what happens when Christ visits His Church. In Malachi 3, His coming is described not merely as comforting, but as a refiner’s fire—one that purifies, confronts, and aligns His people with His holiness. In this teaching, Joseph Mattera unpacks the different ways Jesus “comes” to His Church throughout history—not only to restore, but to refine; not only to encourage, but to expose and cleanse what is out of order. This is not a message of condemnation, but of preparation. If we truly desire His presence, we must understand what we are asking for—and be ready for the transformation that follows. 👉 Listen to gain a deeper, biblical understanding of Christ’s visitation and how to prepare your heart and your church for it.
