Samson: The Weakest Strongman (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 18, 2022

Yes, Samson was the strongest man in the world. But there was a glaring character flaw. No one could defeat Samson matching strength to strength. They did not have to match his strength because all they needed to do was to exploit his inner weakness.

Ask any Sunday School child who is the strongest man in the Bible. There will be no hesitation. It is Samson. The winner of any modern-day strongman competition would not be able to stand against Samson. He was the GOAT, the greatest of all time. He tore a lion apart with his bare hands. There ...read more
