The Call Of Samuel And The Fall Of Eli Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 20, 2003

The Priesthood has failed so God raises up a prophet to bring his word to his people. God uses the circumstances of Hannah to bring about his plan.

I doubt that Samuel realised just what was in store for him as he began his service of God in the Temple with Eli. No doubt it began as a fairly simple routine of lessons and chores with plenty of time for games. As a young child he would have been looked after by the many people who worked and ...read more

Isaiah's Woes

Contributed by Ian Lyall on Sep 28, 2005

In Isaiah 5, the prophet pronounces God’s coming judgment on a sinful society. Much of what Isaiah taught applies to the West today. We need to pray for forgiveness

We say we want something to cheer us on our way; we want something to lift our spirits. We don’t want all this judgemental ...read more
