Fusion: week of 12/28

FAMILY THEME: CORRUPTION

ROTTEN TO THE CORE

1 Kings 16:29-33; 21:1-26

The kings of Israel continue their drift away from God.

1.  Corrupt Influences Can Lead Us Away From God

     (1 Kings 16:29-33)

     Ahab was already rebelling against God when he took

     a pagan wife.

 
2.  Corrupt Leaders Abuse Power and Oppress the Weak

     (1 Kings 21:1-16)

     Jezebel used her influence to have an innocent man

     murdered.

 
3.  Corrupt Actions Cannot be Hidden from God

     (1 Kings 21:17-26)

     It only appeared as though Jezebel and Ahab got away

     with their sin.
