A wise and powerful king. A magnificent temple and palace. Moral weakness and spiritual corruption. The splitting of a dynasty. Weak and ineffective rulers. Attempts at reform. National ruin and regret. Foreign invasion. And then?
This story is not the creation of a brilliant writer of contemporary fiction, it is the true record of God's Old Testament people, a record inspired by the Holy Spirit. In 1 and 2 Kings you will learn:
-
how the world can allure us away from heavenly blessings;
-
how God goes to great lengths to redeem His people;
-
that in spite of their disobedience, God keeps His promises through our Savior, Jesus Christ.
