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

    The Road To Ruin

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 1, 2001
    based on 94 ratings
     | 9,455 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

     | 6,454 views

    Now we like times of great victory and accomplishment but they are most likely going to be dangerous if you allow yourself to be filled with pride. God will see to it that his children know they are not self-sufficient.

    The weak strong man. Judges 15:18-20 06/29/05 After Samson had slain 1000 Philistines, he was about to die of thirst. I could certainly see how a man could get thirsty slaying a thousand enemies with his weapon being the jawbone of a donkey. But in this moment of his life of thirst, was probably ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,154 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

    300 foxes on fire became the philistines worst night mare, but what would have happened if the foxes were fireless?

    Foxes in the scripture are often symbols of the destructive nature of the devil, the unregenerate man. When they warned Jesus that Herod would kill him, Jesus said (go and tell that fox, behold I cast out devils, I do cures today and tomorrow and the third day I shall be perfected). Of the foxes ...read more
