Lesson Of The Hour

Late one afternoon, a king was walking on his roof when he saw a woman bathing. Instead of going out to battle that spring like other kings, David stayed in Jerusalem. On that roof, David looked with lust and commanded his servants to bring Bathsheba to him. Bathsheba later sent word to David that she was pregnant. After David tried to get her husband Uriah to go home to his wife, David ordered his commander Joab to withdraw his men from Uriah in battle for him to die. This one event devastated David’s integrity and character as a faithful man. Likewise, Christians face similar temptations. In Revelation 2, Christ spoke to a church that allowed the influence of sexual immorality to lead them away from Christ. What would God have to learn from the church at Thyatira?Scripture Reading Psalm 52:8-12 (read by Gerrit Dekker)Lesson by Scott ShifferdRecorded April 2, 2017 at the Dean Road church of Christ in Jacksonville, FL
