Christ in Judges | The Former Prophets E2 | Benjamin Shanks

About this episode

Benjamin Shanks explores how Jesus helps break the cycle of sin as depicted in the Book of Judges.

“In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit.” With those words the dark and violent Book of Judges comes to a close. In Judges, Israel are stuck in the Cycle of Sin (Sin - Oppression - Repentance - Deliverance - Peace) with no way to get out. In this message, Benjamin Shanks explores how Jesus gets us out of the cycle of sin. To break the cycle of sin, we need: 1 — A COMMUNITY AROUND US; 2 — A SAVIOUR AMONG US; 3 — A KING ABOVE US. ===================== EPISODE PAGE https://northernlife.org.au/resources/sermons/xins-judges ===================== ABOUT NORTHERNLIFE We're a church on a mission to love God, love others, and make disciples. 🌏 Website: https://northernlife.org.au 📸 Instagram: ⁠https://instagram.com/northernlifebaptistchurch⁠ 📘 Facebook: ⁠https://facebook.com/northernlifebaptistchurch⁠ 📹 YouTube: ⁠https://youtube.com/@NorthernLifeBaptistChurch⁠
