Lesson 18

The career of Elijah is one of the most dramatic and significant among the prophets in Scripture. His life is characterized by miracles, wonders, memorable showdowns with the enemy, and deep attachment to the God he served. He was sent by God to northern Israel during the dark days of the wicked King Ahab and Queen Jezebel. His message of truth, and call to worship the true God alone, would be a message repeated for ages to come. When sin and idolatry abound in any land, the message of Elijah needs to be heard in every generation. In this lecture, Dr. Sproul discusses the remarkable life and ministry of Elijah.
