King Jeroboam - Rebellion To The North (1 Kings 12:25-33)
from Merri Creek Anglican · host Merri Creek Anglican
In this sermon, Peter talks about Jeroboam - the first King of the North. Jeroboam started off as a great liberator who provided leadership to the majority 10 tribes (or 11 depending on your maths). However, Jeroboam's desire to rule caused him to lead Israel into apostasy. He became the King of Sin - the worst kind of king - the one that all other bad Israelite kings would be compared to. Instead of being a type of King Jesus (like David and Solomon), Jeroboam is the opposite 'type' of Jesus.
