When Jesus used and spoke from the Bible he spoke with authority, not like others who used the Scriptures for their own purposes.

In what way is the Bible authoritative?
What does the phrase "God-breathed" really mean?
Psalm 19v7-11
The psalmist says that the Bible is good for:

Dave Mitchell continues our Holy Spirit series by looking at the gift of prophecy.
(Please note that towards the end of this talk, Dave asked members of the congregation to share any words or pictures they had. Their responses were not caught on a dedicated microphone so are quite hard to hear. We’ve boosted the volume as much as possible, but please do accept our apologies for the limitations.)

Elijah had no way of looking after himself. He was completely dependent on the provision of God and the kindness of a stranger, who would normally be the last person Elijah would look to.
In this talk, Rob Scott-Cook asks what can we learn from who God used and how He acted, as well as Elijah’s obedience to God’s commands?

We see in 1 Kings 18 a major showdown with Elijah and the prophets of Baal and a miraculous encounter with the power of God.
