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.

Scripture: 1 Kings 19:1-18

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!

RIP Tim Keller. I will forever be grateful for your sermons.

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

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.

I love Keller. He shows me the true Jesus. I’m always brought near to heaven when I listen to him.

[mirijeon]

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.

Tim Keller you were amazing how blessed you are now your reward is in heaven

[alexandraruedaa]

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 ❤

[devondeswardt]

What an incredible sermon! The depth of his understanding is unsurpassed

[jayjaehwakim]

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.

You gave it your all Pastor Keller! Keep resting in heaven!

I am speechless- the Word of God preached in power and wisdom 🙏

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.

[dalepilgrim]

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

[loganbaumstark]

Can’t wait for his sermons to be published in writing!

[pialakin]

Moving and so real to life service, he can talk straight to your heart. We can still thank you pastor Kelly for your sermons and they serve us well.
