Not only is this passage extremely violent and bloody, it is carried out at God’s command. The Bible is clear that God will judge evil, but is He just in doing so? The cross is the place where His love and justice meet (also violent and bloody), where God took injustice upon Himself so that we could receive salvation.

Finishing Strong
August 27, 2023 • Pastor Chris Ross • 2 Kings 13:14–21
We’ve all been tempted to give up and shrink back in our spiritual life at times. We all experience spiritual apathy. How do we finish strong and give our all to God and the spiritual fight before us? Elisha’s last moments give us both a warning and an example to follow to run our race well and finish strong.
