David & Absalom




Grace Church Teaching show

Summary: In 2 Samuel 15, the consequences of David’s sin are being revealed in the rebellion of his son, Absalom. Through his own sin, David helped create the moment and opportunity of Absalom’s rebellion. Upon hearing of this rebellion, David flees Jerusalem but shows his trust in the Lord in the face of his consequences. God remains active in sanctifying and correcting David through the consequences of his sin and is faithful in shaping David’s heart towards his Creator.
