Synopsis

Explore the purpose and power of prophecy across biblical ages.

This six‑discourse work examines how prophets, including a future likeness to Moses, guided God’s people and shaped faith through time.

In these sermons, Thomas Sherlock surveys the biblical promise of a coming prophet, the nature of divine communication, and how ancient expectations were understood within Hebrew and Christian traditions. The discussions stay grounded in the text, tracing how prophecies point toward a greater covenant and how readers should relate to God’s messages today.
  • Clear explanations of key prophecies and their place in scripture
  • Comparison of Moses’s role with later prophetic figures
  • Discussion of how prophecy informs faith, obedience, and worship
  • Concise, accessible arguments suitable for study and reflection
Ideal for readers of historical theology and those seeking a thoughtful, old‑fashioned examination of how prophecy functions in biblical faith.
