When Pride Counts: David's Census and a National Consequence
Manage episode 513100325 series 3658524
In this episode Brock Jones examines 2 Samuel 24, exploring how King David's census reflected pride and misplaced trust in military strength rather than in God. He traces the mistake back to disregarding God's command (Exodus 30) and the symbolic half-shekel, showing the spiritual implications for Israel and for us today.
Through David's confession, intercession, and the purchase of the threshing floor for sacrifice, the episode points to true redemption in the person and work of Jesus Christ and warns listeners to rely on God rather than their own power.
