The David Spoon Experience Part 2 4-19-22
Welcome to the 90-minute show of The David Spoon Experience.
1) Rehoboam had an excellent opportunity to be an excellent king. He was Solomon’s son. He “could have” benefitted dramatically from observing his father’s victories and failures. But, of course, instead of seeking God (duh), he chose to use the counselors for making his decisions solely. Does this sound familiar? And even though he had wise counsel right next to him, he opted to go with his buddies. Here’s the catch. God was preparing to judge Israel for their sins. Part of that judgment was their separation. NOTHING was going to stop God.
2) Have you ever had significant victories in your spiritual walk? Substantial accomplishments and milestones are to be cherished and appreciated. And our enemy is aware of every spiritual success we have because it damages his kingdom. He is not all-knowing, but he knows when he takes a hit. So, what does an enemy do when you gain territory? He tries to bring you down a bit. Either through fear or some other point of weakness. He is going to lose. But he is not going to go so quietly.
3) I stand by the three primary approaches to the end times. I believe that all three schools of thought are brilliant in their own right. I am a Manifold Millennialist. Please don’t bother trying to track it down. It’s an emerging theology. Regardless of your eschaton, all Christians have a general pathway. Let’s follow that. It’s the commands from Jesus.
