Are you ready to meet Elijah?

From the beginning when God made Adam and Eve, He was accessible, or near. In the covenants God made with the patriarchs, He promised to be in relationship with them always. Later God commanded the people to build the tabernacle so He could live among them. God made Himself even nearer to people when He became a man, the Lord Jesus Christ, the true tabernacle. Now He is accessible in the most intimate way possible. His Spirit lives in every believer. Whenever you pray, He hears you.

Don’t skip the Kings and Prophets!!! Join us in September for a brand new study, People of the promise: Kingdom Divided. Register today at https://join.bsfinternational.org/!!

BSF’s Editorial Manager Bennett Rolan writes, “A year ago, I could confidently say that I had read the books of Amos and Obadiah. But beyond being checked off my Bible reading plan, I honestly could not tell you the difference between the two. Maybe you can relate? If you have skimmed these passages, like me, you likely missed the nuances that make them so gripping. From action-packed accounts to inspiring poetry, these books are beautifully written.

When we slow down long enough to really read these books – as Bible Study Fellowship will do this year in People of the Promise: Kingdom Divided – we discover that the God of the Old Testament still speaks to His people today.”

For the nation of Israel, it must have felt like everything was falling apart. The people worshipped idols. Their kings rejected God. They experienced conflict, war, famine, and division.
