Sermon Summary - Sunday 26 March 2023

Main Bible passage:  1 Samuel 4:1-11

Israel has failed to keep the covenant God gave to her at Mount Sinai. Yet with corrupt priests overseeing the people, they are utterly ignorant of their sin. This leads them to imagine that the Lord will protect them and that simply by bringing his golden Ark of the Covenant to their battlefield, they will defeat their Philistine enemies. This is abject folly because the presence of the Lord in their camp will actually be disaster for them as he brings down the covenant curses on their heads. It’s not enough to have a form of religion. We need to love the Lord with all that we are and repent of our sins against him.
