The Consequences of Sin – 2 Samuel 13 (July 13, 2025)

In this deeply sobering episode, Dave Jenkins walks through 2 Samuel 13:1–39—a tragic chapter that exposes the devastating consequences of lust, silence, and revenge within King David's family. We meet Amnon, who violates Tamar, and Absalom, who takes justice into his own hands. David's failure to act as a father and king sets the stage for greater rebellion. Yet even in the darkness, this passage points us forward to a King who never abuses His power—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. 📖 Full Passage: 2 Samuel 13:1–39 Themes: Lust, injustice, silence, vengeance, grief Biblical Insight: Sin corrupts, but Christ redeems.
