But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

Things That Are So Easy To Do

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Dec 12, 2010

David was a man after God’s own heart yet he sinned on many occasions. His most grievous sin was probably his affair with Bathsheba and the murder of her husband Uriah. David found out just how easy it is to sin and to displease God.

It not only records their good deeds and testimony worthy of our example, but also their failures and sin which were written for our admonition and warning.
