The Waters Came Down and the Floods Came Up

Ezra 4:1-24 is our sermon text for this evening. In this passage the author seeks to show us how the the people of Judah remained faithful in the midst of great opposition. The author is centrally focused on helping the reader see the different between the people of Judah, the repentant children of God, and the adversaries of Samaria, a mongrel race who has chosen syncretism over worship of the one true God. Join us as we study these verses to understand the significance of what has taken place and how this informs our own lives today.
