Life or death situation (with Q&A)
from St Helen's Sunday talks podcast · host St Helen's Bishopsgate
Nick Heeley - In 2 Kings 8, we see a final glimpse of the life God offers through Elisha, before the long-delayed judgement on the house of Ahab is finally set in motion. Yet these verses also reveal that Israel has already faced a kind of judgement—divided in two by how people respond to Elisha’s life-giving ministry. The certainty of coming judgement is a warning to those who have not yet turned to Jesus, reminding us that delay does not mean it will not come. At the same time, the passage encourages Christians to persevere in serving the God who faithfully provides for his people.
