People walked away from God with stiffened necks. The idolatrous nation was so wicked they would not repent. In the message we see God had tried so much to reach the nation of Judah but they were stubborn and rebellious and rejected and killed the prophets. Disobedience considered.

Disobedience Positions People For Replacement

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 5, 2025

Consequences Of Disobedience

Contributed by Victor Nazareth on Aug 20, 2002

Based on Saul’s partial obedience in destroying the Amalekites we look at the causes and consequences of disobedience in our own lives. God expects total obedience. Partial obedience is equivalent to disobedience.

The hardening of his heart and his casual attitude to the sin of partial obedience caused him to be rejected as King. He lost his kingdom and eventually lost his life. As we analyze the reasons ...read more

When God Changes His Mind (Jonah 3:1-10) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 8, 2022

The king of Assyria knows that there's a chance that God will change his mind, and not bring about the promised judgment. God prefers to forgive, and bless. For three chapters in a row, God has shown mercy, not judgment.

The book of Jonah began in a surprising way. Yahweh called Yonah to go to Ninevah, and Yonah disobeyed. This is not what prophets do. Prophets obey. But Yonah ran the wrong direction, to the end of the known world, at Tarshish. When that didn't work, he chose death over Yahweh. He refused ...read more
