Elijah Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Feb 10, 2023

Elijah The Prophet Of Fire Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 11, 2021

Elijah broke into the atmosphere of human history like a comet. We have no story of his birth or background. His coming was as sudden and mysterious as was his going in the flaming chariot.

Elijah was the Luther of the Old Testament. He was God's man of the hour to begin a reformation and lead the children of Israel back to God. For about 50 years devotion to God had been decreasing.
