Cleansing Mercy (2 Kings 5)
In 2 Kings 5, the washing of Naaman is one of the great baptism passages in the Bible. Naaman represents an all-too-familiar pride that must be set aside for him to see his need of God and Elisha’s servant, Gehazi, represents the similarly familiar pride of self-righteousness as he struggles to grasp God’s saving grace. These obstacles to God’s gracious work rear their heads in every generation. This story is a powerful reminder of our need of God’s cleansing mercy—a mercy wonderfully displayed in the waters of baptism.
From Series: "The Gospel According to Elijah and Elisha"
This series will explore the dramatic events that come out of the lives of these two prophets and where they fit in redemptive history and what they mean for our lives.
