Jeroboam's Golden Calves
1 Kings 12:25-13:10
January 19, 2020
Introduction:
I. Jeroboam's dilemma. 1 Kings 12:12-27.
II. Jeroboam institutes false worship. 1 Kings 12:28-33.
III. A prophecy and a sign. 1 Kings 13:1-5.
IV. A refusal to break bread. 1 Kings 13:6-10.
Questions for reflection:
- What is wrong with Jeroboam's pragmatic rationale for establishing new worship
centers with golden calves? - How might churches make similar kinds of mistakes based on a pragnatic impulse?
- Underneath Jeroboam's pragmatism is a loss of confidence in the Word of God.
Are there ways in which your decisions or behavior show a loss of confidence in
God's word?
