The Balm of Gilead

In the Bible, sin is often depicted as a plague which has ravished the world. On one occasion, the great prophet cried out: “Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there?” (Jeremiah 8:22). A balm is a fragrant oil used to treat sickness or soothe wounds. Jeremiah was looking for a cure for the nation. He desired his people to be rescued from certain death. Was the request of this man of God ever granted? Was his question ever answered? The venerable evangelist Johnny Elmore gives the Biblical answer in this beautiful sermon.
