     | 6,318 views

    Here's a king who, because of pride and rebellion, chose to look only to doctors and not to God for his healing. His stance was a result of waning faith, going against his previous experience, and even against his knowledge of God’s character.

But as we know, time does not heal all wounds. Come with me to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. Roman ...read more

    Here, the Scripture portrays an Israelite king substituting true godliness with a cheap imitation in an attempt to fool the people of Israel into believing that the nation still had favor with God. But in reality, Israel was falling apart.
