    Samson lost all by compromising his committment to God. Where is his hope? Where is OUR hope?

    And Samson did not know that the LORD had left him. But the Philistines took him, put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. There they bound him with chains of brass, and set him to grinding in the prison house. (Judges 16:20-21) Recall the story of Samson’s downfall. Samson was the original ...read more

    The Road To Ruin

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 1, 2001
    based on 94 ratings
     | 9,388 views

    Samson was on the road to ruin because he fraternized with the enemy, wasted his strength and was deluded by pride.

    The story of Samson begins much like the story of the other judges of Israel. The nation was in misery because of the domination of a rival country that was oppressing them. That nation was the Philistine nation. (Interestingly, the word Philistine is where we get our word “Palestinian,” so this ...read more

    Self-Confidence: The Deceitful Destroyer

    Contributed by Jose Cabajar on Jun 17, 2004
    based on 19 ratings
     | 4,907 views

    Knowing more about Samson’s life offers us a wider scope of understanding regarding the danger of self-confidence and spiritual leniency.

    Self-confidence is a misplaced reliance and it is offensive before the sight of God. Its deceitfulness is being revealed from generation to generation and sorrowfully experienced by its trapped victims. Samson, the strongest man who ever lived, is a warning example for all those who dare to put ...read more

    The Weak Strong Man 10

    Contributed by Melvin Shelton on Jul 20, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,137 views

    It is odd when you get to thinking about the Philistines and Samson. They knew his weakness but did not know what gave him great strength. His weakness of course was women.

    The weak strong man 10. Judges 16:4-21. 07/20/05 These last two studies in the life of Samson are dark scenes and a great warning of the danger in walking after the lust of the flesh. Samson’s disregard of the call of God in his life has led him down the street of dead end and no turning back. ...read more

    What was the source of Samson’s strength? Was it what he told Delilah, or was it something else?

    OPEN: My wife and I have always enjoyed doing jig saw puzzles. We’ll put them out on a folding table and work on it for days, enjoying the experience as we successfully put in piece after piece.

    based on 47 ratings
     | 3,406 views

    Sin has a way of deceiving us, first by blinding us to its dangers, then by binding us in its power, and finally by making us a slave to its impulses.

    SAMSON AND SIN’S TRIPLE-WHAMMY Judges 16:21 "Then the Philistines took him and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. They bound him with bronze fetters, and he became a grinder in the prison." INTRODUCTION: Christians who know that it was sin that nailed their Savior to the cross have no ...read more

    based on 46 ratings
     | 11,628 views

    Spiritually speaking there are some valuables that I want to keep safe in my walk with God. There are some things that I really value about living for the Lord Jesus Christ.

    John chapter 10 is the teaching of Jesus about the sheep finding the true door, following the true shepherd, and avoiding the thief. According to John 10:10 the express purpose of the thief is to steal, kill, and destroy. He comes for no other reason but that of selfish gain. He comes not to ...read more

    based on 25 ratings
     | 6,241 views

    Ordination sermon, involving a play on the names of Samson in the Bible and Sampson, the ordinand, an entertainer, puppeteer, and beauty pageant winner. The whole secret of strength is in using the gifts God has given for ministry and not for one’s self.

    The world didn’t give it, and the world can’t take it away. Isn’t that what we sing. I’m not so sure. What do you think? The world didn’t give it? I agree. That’s true. But the world can’t take it away? I am not at all sure. We are here today because Yolanda Sampson has heard the ...read more

    We may have been saved from evil, but each of us must take care not to fall prey to foolishness.

    FOLLOWING JESUS There have been times in my life that I have made the mistake of doing things my way. I have always known to “wait on the Lord”, but there are times when we all want to do things on our own. No doubt this is one of the biggest mistakes any one of us could ever make.
