2 Kings 17

We're getting back to our study in Second Kings seventeen with our teacher, Pastor Bill Luebkemann. Second Kings takes us through some tumultuous times in the nation of Israel. In our message today, we'll see more of the events that took place during the reign of King Ahaz and King Hosea. Here's Pastor Bill with the details… To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1698/29?v=20251111

2 Kings 17

Welcome to Hope From the Word. Our teacher is Pastor Bill Luebkemann, and he is the senior pastor at Calvary Chapel of Marlton, where our broadcast originates. Currently, Pastor Bill is leading us chapter by chapter through the Old Testament book of Second Kings. Today we begin a two-part look at chapter seventeen, so turn there if you would. As we'll soon see Israel is about to do exactly what God told them not to do. They were worshipping other gods, and this idol worship provoked the Lord to anger. Through it all God continues to warn them to turn from their ways, and come back to Him. I think as you study along with us, you'll be struck by the amazing parallels with what's going on in our own country.

2 Kings 16

If you make experience the basis for truth, then God's word is no longer the basis. You can't have it both ways. Jesus said God's word is true! Keep that in mind and join us for Hope From The Word with Bill Luebkemann. Bill is the pastor of Calvary Chapel of Marlton. We continue in Second Kings with the story of perhaps the most wicked king in the history of Judah. Today we enter the days of the divided kingdom, and things are getting progressively worse. King Ahaz brought the nation to a whole new low! Before we pick up in our study in Second Kings chapter sixteen and verse seven, Pastor Bill will turn to Isaiah chapter seven for God's message to King Ahaz.

2 Kings 16

It's been said that the greatest sin is the corruption of the highest good. The nation of Judah in the days of King Ahaz was guilty of great sin. They were God's people called to worship Him, yet they turned to idols. But before we condemn Judah of old, we must examine our hearts. We'll be given that opportunity as we explore their history on today's Hope From The Word. Instead of asking how low can we go, or how far can we stray, we should be encouraged to draw near and stay close to the Lord! For encouragement to that end, let's join Pastor Bill Luebkemann in Second Kings chapter sixteen. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1698/29?v=20251111

2 Kings 14:11-15:38

There's much more to be said about this issue of why God allows evil and what his purposes are; and we will explore that issue, among other things, on today's Hope From The Word. Bill Luebkemann is our teacher and the pastor of Calvary Chapel of Marlton. We understand that for anyone to be in a truly loving relationship with God, there must be choice; a choice that we are responsible for. But to have choice, well that opens the door for people to choose evil. We see this played out in history as well as in our present day. Let's see how to make the right choice, a good and godly choice.
