More consequences of sin

2 Samuel 12

The consequences of David’s sin are much more than the death of a child. His sin affected his whole family.

Sensual lust was a real problem for David. Sadly, this same problem was passed on to at least one of his children. The lust was so great that his son Amnon raped his daughter Dinah. As a result of the rape Absalom, another son, killed Amnon.

Let us be aware just how serious our undealt with sin can be. Its consequences can be far reaching. It may even affect the most precious things God gives us, our children.
