The Still Small Voice - Timothy Keller [Sermon]

Tim Keller sermons via Gospel in Life: The reality of God is far greater than our conceptions of God. In this passage, Elijah, persecuted and feeling hopeless, returns to the mountain where God appeared to Moses and hopes for a similar spectacular revelation of His glory. Yet God confounds and comforts Elijah by appearing as a still small voice. What we learn in this passage is that God shows Elijah who he is. God shows us who he is. Who is the true God? When God comes, he comes in these ways: 1) In tremendous wisdom; 2) In humbling multiplicity; 3) In a word of grace.

This sermon was preached by Rev. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 26, 1999.

Exactly what I’m going through. Some depression but not hopeless depression like before when I was in the world. Just some deep sadness. And I see it, just because my plan is not working doesn’t mean Gods plan is not working. Thank you to the Rock for being my shield amid of all of this. Love you Lord Jesus, my friend!

Just to imagine what it was like when our dear Pastor Tim saw our God right before passing and He told him: you have been so faithful, come now, your purpose is fulfilled. What joy, what peace he must have felt then... Such rich spiritual life he shared with us all. Glory be to God for what He did, does and will do through these messages ❤

How blessed I am to have been present to hear this sermon on the day Pastor Timothy Keller shared it with Redeemer Presbyterian Church when it used to gather on Sundays at Hunter College auditorium. It is just as moving today as it was then.

Thank you for this timeless message. So refreshing and convicting to hear it again. Continue to pray for the complete healing of his cancer that the treatment he's receiving will be very effective and that God's strength proves to be all the more powerful during his weakest moments at times as a patient. Today I'm a better version of myself as a Christian in part because of his sermons.

This is such a blessing to me as all Tim Keller sermons are, I really love and appreciate how He contextualizes the gospel into the culture we live in to make it more applicable. This sermon really hit home for me and I pray it reaches the hands of people all over the world that would really benefit from it. Thank you so much to everyone working behind the scenes to make it possible to share this sermon, it is helping me in more than I can explain to have a deeper understanding of the word of God and how to grow deeper in relationship with God. May God bless all of you abundantly In Jesus Name

[@jayjaehwakim5924]

So when I or we pray for God's manifestation , unless something happens in mystery, God shows who He is through Bible. And I find Keller's repeated , important message while I watch his sermon continuously ,which is that , Jesus got through what we deserved and we won what He deserved. And this happened under God's grace. I think this is Gospel.

Profound Word! There’s so many layers and you masterfully unpacked it. Thank you!

[@hjlydia]

This message touched my heart and gave me a glimmer of hope - which I thought had died in me. That being said, I'm saddened that I haven't found anything similar (in terms of caliber) to this message in the various churches that I've visited or been a member of in the past decade. If I add in the reality that meaningful fellowship (which, for me, could absolutely make up for lackluster messages) has been sorely lacking in the churches that I've attended in the past decade, my unfortunate conclusion and begging question is this: Church? Why bother?!

[@catherinedembek3518]

[@brianchaplin278]

Amazing message

[@livingpicture]

This is a great message! One thing I would point out is that there are several occasions where God calls a wicked ruler (or at least one not sympathetic to the Israelites) to accomplish His purposes. Nimshi is just the "tip of the iceberg," so to speak. As a couple other examples, review prophecies about Pharoah Neco, Nebuchadnezzar, and Cyrus the Mede, and consider the extensive "history" given in Daniel, where the engagements of the king of the north and the king of the south and how they affected Israel are detailed almost down to troop movements! That God calls someone out and tells what they will do, and even says that person is anointed to do so is by no means an endorsement of that person's actions and piety (or lack thereof). You could apply the same to many people today and recognize that there are quite a few more people who are anointed by God for specific purposes today, but clearly have hangups, sometimes are accused of holding non-Christian ideals, and perhaps do indeed hold those ideals, ... yet God is using them! This is not to say the charlatans who pretend to be anointed in order to fleece God's sheep are worthy of our attention. Please don't mistake what I say as an endorsement or even excuse for false teachers.

Спасибо наш брат Тимоти. Благослави Вас Господь. Я слушаю через перевод с титрами, но все понятно. Благослави вас Господь Я столько вас слушала, я правильно поняла вы не практикуете учением Кальвина. Я просто разочарована этим учением Кальвинизма, его огрониченость о спасении грешников и о воли человека. Я верю что у человека есть воля принять и отвергать Господа, и каждый может понять Евангелию и верю , что Господь умер за всех человека, а не для определенных людей.Как вы относитесь к этому учению, или я тоже этим ставлю Господа в закрытое место.Я правильно рассуждаю или что то не так в моем понимании. Просто как я поняла от ваших Слов , что Евангелие доступно к каждому разуму и Бог хочет чтобы все спаслись, и все грешники предопределены ко спасению, но принять спасение в воли человека.

Jesus showed up to me through my baby grandson he couldn't say much but he pointed at my new Cross necklace and said Jesus Jesus then he looked up to the ceiling with has hands up to God saying the ubba the ubba! And another time I saw the sky was full of shining diamonds! But my husband couldn't see it. Yet to me it was sooo sparkly! Praise God. I also get the strong smell for a couple of minutes of roses or lillies or fresh cut flowers. I also get woke up by a really exciting feeling In my belly and feel so happy and peaceful. I love you Jesus so very much! Thank you for calling my name and changing my heart of stone! Amen and Amen X

I was just about this passage with some friends. Our pastor said God doesn't speak in a still small voice, and we were all confused about it. Interested to hear what Keller says

[@estherchan6888]

God is God, He can boom down on us and He can also whisper to us.

[@cl3ar]

26:43 putting God in a box. 28:49 what is the Gospel ？ 29:50 you are more wicked thank you ever dared believe. You are more accepted than you ever dare hope. And only when you push it out to the margins, will you be saved from the over optimism about your own abilities, And the over pessimism about everybody else’s. Elijah was screwed up at that moment ,because he is not looking through the Gospel. He is not understanding, he hasn’t been humbled by the multiplicity of God. He’s out God in a box. 33;45 what will actually penetrate and change peoples hearts? Gods voice, Gods word.

Cathy, please tell me what you think of Tim Keller

[@anonymousmouse505]

I really don't think that saying "the reason your life sucks and your unhappy is because you're doing Christianity wrong and putting god in a box" (like literally all the charismatic crazies who think we can be sinless) is the best idea when dealing with this. I can see why people were wary, he uses modern nuanced verbiage.
