Nehemiah Part 41: Getting Back to the Book IV (Neh. 8:13-18)
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025)
In Jeremiah 6:16, God tells His people to “ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein.” But where do we find the “old paths?” Do we go back to the way our parents did it? Do we go back to our grandparents’ day? Or must we go even farther back than that? As we continue today in our study of Nehemiah, we will learn that, until we go all the way back to the word of God, we haven’t gone far enough! When Nehemiah and Ezra brought the people of God together to worship after the completion of the walls, they took them back to the Book of the Law and discovered that they had not been worshiping correctly since the days of Joshua. Join us as we see how important it is to get “back to the Book” in order to worship God correctly.
