Elijah: The God Time - Paperback

by Rhodan Durrkey (Author)

This is a book based on events that occurred in the Bible. The writer weaves a story around these events as to what could have possibly happened. The writer not only writes of the battles but also the feelings and emotions that occupy the hearts of men of war. The writer gives an account of the miracles that took place and how they happened and why. The writer tries to show a God that was very active in protecting his chosen ones from the false god Baal. The writer also shows that God is seeking a relationship with people of the ninth century. God also demonstrates his power and concern for justice. The heart of the story is about a prophet that is seventy-five years of age and lives over 140 years. This is the story of him, Elijah, the devoted prophet of God or Yahweh. Yahweh was known as God from the time of Moses. A very sacred time to this day is called Passover. The writer tries to reveal the relationship between Yahweh and Elijah and how significant it was. God does not send chariots and horses of fire for the prophets that served him. In all the history of the Bible, this had only happened once. The writer tries to connect the events to the people who lived in the ninth century. Ahab and Jezebel are key participants in this book because, without them, there would have been no God time. The promotion of Baal was a factor in the worship of Israel and Samaria. The writer encourages the reader to remember this book is a story about the ninth century and the people who found themselves living in God time.
