THE ORIGIN STORY OF JESUS
Part 43: The Kings of Israel |
|
King Ahab and Jezebel promoted and trained the
Israelites to love and worship Baal. They failed to realize that God
promotes love and patience, but the flipside is justice and wrath
for those who rebel. Jehu and his soldiers started a purge that saw
thousands executed for idolatry, but he compromised by using
deception to lure the wicked people and slaughter them without
mercy. Lying is never acceptable to God because it is a practice
that stems from father of lies – Lucifer. Maybe this is what led to
his enthrallment with the golden calves set up by King Jeroboam in
Bethel and Dan. Jehu wanted to please the Lord by destroying Baal
worship in Israel, but worshiping a golden calf was just as wicked.
The calves were a hoax and political stunt to keep the people in the
north from traveling to the temple in Jerusalem. He took no heed to
walk in the law of God with all his heart and ended up in hell with
the same people he executed. |
