Faith in the Face of Apostasy (Gospel According To The Old Testament Series)

An excellent expostion from the GOSPEL ACCORDING TO THE OLD TESTAMENT series.  
  
Raymond Dillard's multi-faceted work on Elijah and Elisha draws out the essentially Christ-centred messages contained in these stories. He intends to nourish reader's faith and encourage worship and his book can be used in personal devotions, as a small-group study text, or as help for sermon preparation. Faith in the Face of Apostasy will help readers understand the stories in 1 and 2 Kings as part of the over-arching story of God that culminates in the life of Jesus.  
  
"One of the most urgent needs of the church is to grasp how the many parts of the Bible fit together to make one 'story-line' that culminates in Jesus-Christ. This series of books goes a long way to meeting that need. Written at a thoughtful but popular level, it deserves wide circulation." - D A Carson.

Written for laypeople, study groups, and pastors, this study of the lives of Elijah and Elisha shows how the Old Testament accounts direct us to faith in Christ today.Read less
