Rev. John RohrmanAugust 14, 2022Passage: 2 Chronicles 25:14-28
2 Chronicles 25 says that King Amaziah 'did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, yet not with a whole heart.' After a brief period of faithfulness, he soon turned away to worship other gods, then refused to listen to opportunities to repent. As a result, he was dealt with according to the same law he had acknowledged in his early years: 'each one shall die for his own sin.' Likewise, our obedience and love for God are half-hearted, but if we repent and trust in the death of Christ for our sins, we will not die, but live.
