094 Judges 19 – 21; Mark 12
You thought the horses head in the bed of his owner was bad in The Godfather and then you read the Bible. He cut this woman up in twelve pieces and shipped her out to the twelve tribes asking for justice. Justice finally came as the Israelites gathered before God asking for direction. The justice that God brought had to do with the tribe of Benjamin and them getting wiped out. The heartache is that it is the people of God killing off the people of God. This is supposed to be a nation that reflects the character and mission of God. They are killing each other. Insane! No leadership. No awareness of sin. It is nasty. The church is the body of Christ. We must be careful how we treat each other for the world is watching.
Find the main thing and then keep the main thing, the main thing. The most important commandment is to love God and to love others as we love ourselves. If you lose your way today, remember the main thing. It is simple but profound.
