In this sermon from our Kingdoms in Crisis series, Brendan explores one of the most dramatic and violent passages in Scripture: the downfall of Ahab’s family and the death of Jezebel (2 Kings 9–10).Why does God’s judgment seem so brutal here? What do we do with stories of violence in the Bible? And how does this connect to the peace, love, and forgiveness revealed in Jesus Christ?Through Jehu’s bloody rise to power, we uncover:The historical and cultural context of violence in the ancient Near EastHow God uses judgment to highlight the seriousness of sinThe progressive revelation that points us from the Old Testament to ChristWhy we must always read Scripture through the lens of Jesus, the Prince of PeaceThis message challenges us to wrestle honestly with hard texts, while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus—the true revelation of God’s heart.📖 Key Scripture: 2 Kings 9–10✝️ Series: Kingdoms in Crisis
