The Holiness Of God

It was to be the most joyous day of David’s new reign. The ark was coming home. It was an amazing celebration with singing, dancing and instruments, but suddenly, the party stops. The party stops because a man is lying dead. Nothing like a dead body to ruin the fun. Why is he dead? He reached out to prevent the Ark from falling to the ground and God struck him dead. The party stops, King David is angry and the ark is set to the side. This is one of the most difficult and often misinterpreted texts in the book of Samuel. But make no mistake, there is an incredibly significant truth that God must teach David. Beyond this, there is a very practical and significant truth that God desires to teach us. I pray that you will make plans to join us this weekend as we learn more about the holiness of God and what God requires of those who desire to worship Him.
