To day we had our last Adult Bible Class for the year. For the month of December all of us will be busy with Christmas activities - celebrations, parties, kettling etc. We shall recommence classes in January.
This morning, we had a review of the first 16 chapters of Judges. Time was given for questions and sharing among the group.
Compromise is one of the main themes of Judges. God set them a standard, but they failed to seek His help and guidance in living to God's Kingdom values. They left themselves open to influences from the people of the land - chiefly idolatry and immorality. They went to the land and fought the Canaanites, but in the end they were like the Canaanites. Sad story.
God used the oppressors to punish His people. They had to accept painful consequences.
