17 Elijah was a person just like us. He prayed that it would not rain. And it did not rain on the land for three and a half years!
18 Then Elijah prayed that it would rain. And the rain came down from the sky, and the land grew crops again.
19 My brothers and sisters, if anyone wanders away from the truth and someone helps that person come back,
20 remember this: Anyone who brings a sinner back from the wrong way will save that person from eternal death and cause many sins to be forgiven.
