The Lesson Of Fear

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022

In Psalm 34 we have an unusual situation. This Psalm took place when David was having to flee from King Saul for his life.

To spare his life, David did an unusual thing, he went unto the land of the Philistines. When he arrived however, the people skeptically received him. The King in Psalm 34 has caused some to believe the Bible contradicts itself. For example: • In 1 Samuel 21 the Bible refers to the King of Gath ...read more

Mourning Lessons

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 11, 2023

It is right to mourn out loud when something that is precious is lost or destroyed.

This is a really depressing passage, isn’t it, especially the first part. You can certainly see why this book of the Bible was called Lamentations.
