Victory at Rabbah. Defeat in Jerusalem July 5, 2026

Living in the midst of a period of multiple victories in battle and accumulation of enormous wealth and treasure, we learn how easy it is to be tempted and quickly fall into serious sin. Although the events recorded in 2 Samuel happened a very long time ago, the principles contained within the biblical account hold true today. Where did King David go wrong? How did such a strong believer fall when tempted? What lessons can we learn from this sad section of Holy Scripture that will help us not to make the same mistakes today? Rev. Andrew D. Redman leads us carefully through the text, highlighting the important principles for our edification and instruction in our modern world today.
