Judges 17-18

In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did whatever he wanted (17:6).  The spiral into unbridled lawlessness is shocking.  We can't be too accusatory, though.  Let the Bible be a mirror.  Where would I be if God did not reign me back?

We need Jesus!

  1. You get the feeling the verse could just as easily have said, "In those days there was no king in Israel; (and even if there had been)everyone did whatever he wanted."

    No authority = no accountability.

    Man will not self-govern (or least very well).
