Children brought away in chains. Houses go up in flames. Women raped. The temple plundered.
And screaming. Constant screaming.
This is the scene towards the end of 2 Kings, when Israel was exiled by their God - the same God who parted the red sea for them, the same God who promised to establish the throne of David forever. The God who brings life is the same God who destroys a whole country. Israel has been taking God for granted, and He has had enough.
This sermon was preached by our pastor-in-training, Jerome Leng, as part of our sermon series on biblical theology, "God's Story".
Please note that all the audio for our sermons is recorded live and only very lightly edited. From time to time
you
will hear the preacher making off-the-sermon comments or silences that come with this context. These include:
the
preacher making a wordless gesture or action to the audience, dropping and picking up something, a blooper that
disrupts the flow of the sermon, and even a power outage! Thank you for understanding. We are working on
uploading
video for all the sermons that work better on video. Keep growing under the Word; may God bless His church.
