Sinning Under the Rod
2 Chronicles 28:22-23
And in the time of his distress did he trespass yet more against the LORD: this is that king Ahaz.…


I. AHAZ WAS THE SON OF A PIOUS KING OF JUDAH.

II. FOR HIS WICKEDNESS GOD VISITED HIM WITH A SERIES OF SAD CALAMITIES.

III. We see here THE GUILT AND DANGER OF HARDENING OURSELVES UNDER GOD'S AFFLICTING HAND.

IV. THOSE WHO RECEIVE AFFLICTIONS MAY GROW MORE REBELLIOUS UNDER THEM.

V. THE GUILT OF ANY APPROACH TO SUCH A CONDITION MAY BE EASILY SEEN.

VI. IT BECOMES US TO INQUIRE, WHAT HAVE BEEN THE EFFECTS OF GOD'S CHASTENINGS UPON OURSELVES?

(W. H. Lewis, D.D.)
