Malachi 3:18

A Book Of Remembrance Is Written

¹⁷ “They will be Mine,” says the Lord of hosts, “on that day when I publicly recognize them and openly declare them to be My own possession [that is, My very special treasure]. And I will have compassion on them and spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.” ¹⁸ Then you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between the one who serves God and the one who does not serve Him.
