FOREWORD
This book is the outgrowth of studies and sermons over a long period of time, under different
titles. In the life and ministry of these two prophets there are so many rich experiences, all
applicable to us today and to the church down thru the centuries; therefore the Title, "PROFIT
FROM THE PROPHETS," seemed appropriate.
Every one of the Prophets has a wealth of teachings beneficial to the Body of Christ. Elijah
was without question among the greatest of God's servants, and his appearance on the Mount
of transfiguration (Luke 9:30 etc.) with Christ and Moses, and the promise of him returning to
earth again "before that great and dreadful day of the Lord," give great prestige to his position
in the plan of God.
Elisha, on the other hand, figured in more miracles over a longer period of time than did Elijah
or any other prophet. His request at the rapture of Elijah "for a double portion of Elijah's spirit"
was answered, at least in part, by him performing "double" the number of miracles Elijah
performed. Elisha was the human factor in 12 recorded miracles while Elijah had only 6 in his
ministry.
So we commend "PROFIT FROM THE PROPHETS" to you, only asking that you use ALL the
"PROFIT" to the GLORY OF OUR MASTER JESUS CHRIST.
