Showing results for "Three Kings" in Christianity

“When David was old and well advanced in years, he could not keep warm even when they put covers over him” (1 Kings 1: 1). Old and sick, the consequences of David’s sin continue to dog him. Adonijah, now David’s eldest surviving son, engineers a palace coup to overthrow David. When David learns of the plot, he anoints his son, Solomon, as king (970-930 B.C.). As David’s tenth son, Solomon is nowhere close to being heir to the throne, but David raises him to power to fulfill a promise made to Bathsheba.

Totally exhausted and spent, God assigns Elijah three more tasks to accomplish to complete his job: 1) on the international stage, “anoint Hazael king over Aram [Syria]”; 2) on the domestic stage, “anoint Jehu son of Nimshi king over Israel”; and 3) on the personal front, “anoint Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah to succeed you as prophet” (1 Kings 19: 15-16). Meanwhile, Jehoshaphat, king of Judah (869-848 B.C.), arranges a tentative peace between Israel and Judah.

David forged a united monarchy from a loose confederation of twelve tribes; Solomon overlays that monarchy with a brilliant administrative structure. God grants Solomon his request for “discernment in administering,” and in doing so, Solomon builds a kingdom unlike any that had ever appeared before. Too, Solomon carries out David’s wish to build a temple for the Lord in Jerusalem, a temple worthy of God’s name. Throughout his reign, Solomon lives in wealth and splendor, greater than any other king on earth.

This traditional Christmas carol was written by John Henry Hopkins, an American clergyman. He wrote the carol as part of a production he organised for his students at The General Theological Seminary in New York City, where he held the post of musical director. This recording offers reading of the English-language lyrics followed by magical harp music based on original Christmas carol melody.

Immerse yourself in the timeless wisdom and captivating narratives of the Bible with "Bible 01-03: Genesis, Exodus, and Leviticus." This audiobook brings to life the foundational books of the Old Testament, offering a rich and powerful exploration of creation, the deliverance of the Israelites from slavery, and the laws and rituals that guided their lives. From the epic stories of Adam and Eve, Noah's Ark, and the exodus from Egypt, to the detailed instructions for worship and communal living.

In this audiobook, theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. delves into the historical significance of the offices of prophet, priest, and king. He traces their origins in the Old Testament to their ultimate fulfillment in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Mohler presents a compelling argument: the three offices should not be compartmentalized. They are interconnected and essential for Christian faithfulness in the home, the church, and society. When Jesus Christ returns, the whole world will bow to him as Lord—Prophet, Priest, and King.

The prophetic books of the Old Testament are named for the many prophets chosen by God to warn the Israelite people of their waywardness and urge them to repent and stay faithful to him. The majority of these books were written before the conquest of Jerusalem by the Babylonians, but several of the minor prophets detail the return to Jerusalem from their exile to rebuild the city.
