Old Testament

Asa did what was right and good in the sight of the Lord. But...

Can bad kings do good things? Sure, but don't think that changes God's opinion of them. He has a different standard than we do,

Poor Solomon! He had everything. He tried everything. He found no satisfaction in anything.

The kingdom is divided. How sad, yet even that was part of God's plan.

Solomon didn't always use the gifts God gave him to glorify God. How about you?

The temple is completed. Now for some finishing touches and a powerful prayer.

The building of the temple was begun, and what a project it was. And what a privilege it is for us to be His temple.

World view: Vanity of vanities; all is vanity. Biblical view: Keep looking up, your redemption is near.
