Can You Have God's Gifts Without God's Blessing Series

Contributed by Charles Jones on Sep 3, 2008

Samson demonstrated that it is possible to experience the gifts and power of God without the blessing of God. God gives people abilities to accomplish His purposes, but that in no way guarantees that they will seek to know Him or follow His ways.

When we look in the book of Hebrews Chapter 11 which is called "The Heroes of the Faith" we see where the Bible lists Samson as a hero of the faith the unknown writer of Hebrews say’s in (Heb. 11:32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of ...read more
