Gene presented The Gospel According to Moses at the first annual Shenandoah Valley Bible Conference held April 21-23, 2017 in Winchester, Virginia.
This series is intended to demonstrate that the Gospel message, focusing on the Person and work of Jesus Christ, is the central message of the entire Bible. The coming of the Messiah and His saving work of redemption is presented throughout the Old Testament through direct prophetic statements, as well as using types and shadows. New Testament authors repeatedly refer to Old Testament expectations of the coming of the Savior—the Lord Jesus Christ.

Elijah #5

Practical sanctification (1Th 5:12-25). God is preparing us for something greater. Israel was worshipping many gods. Elijah summoned all the people to Mount Carmel. Though Ahab accused him, Elijah pinpointed the trouble of Israel to be Ahab (1Ki 18:16-20). Evil leadership of Ahab was worse than the string of kings before (1Ki 16:33). The word used for "evil" is akar meaning there are harmful social implications to the actions taken. Confession is necessary, but we also have to deal with consequences (Heb 12:15, Pro 11:17, Prov 11:29, Pro 15:27). Trouble are brought on yourself -- (Jos 7:25, 1Ch 2:7, Pro 15:6, Exo 20:5). The consequence of Ahab was felt 150 years later (Mic 6:16). Restatement of the ten commandments (Deu 5:6-21) which is the preamble to the law of Moses. The first five commands are God-ward and second five relate to those around us. Ahab violated all the commands. God's favor cannot be restored until the source of error removed (Pro 28:13). God wants us to be set aside for His purpose (1Th 4:3).

Elijah's life shows us the keys to spiritual power: the power of God's Word faith prayer revival and failure.
