BIBLICAL CASE STUDY - ADULTERY 2: STAY IN THE WILL OF GOD
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Biblical Case Study - Adultery
a) David And Bathsheba
i) 2 Samuel 11-12 tells the story of how the great King David, of whom God called, ‘a man after my own heart’ (Acts 13:22; 1 Samuel 13:14), committed adultery.
b) There are several lessons that should be learned from this story.
2. Stay In The Will Of God
1 Samuel 11:1
“In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to battle, David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel. And they ravaged the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.”
a) 2 Samuel Verse 1 says that it was, “the time when kings go out to battle”. However, where was David? He had stayed behind. He was not where he was supposed to be. Instead of being with his men in battle, as was customary and appropriate, David was indulging in some inappropriate leisure time activity. Many times, we are most vulnerable to temptation when we have strayed out of God’s will.
