Lesson 74

Solomon Backslides

1 Kings 11

Solomon disobeys God, he marries women from the nations around, even though God had forbidden him to do so.

Disobedience has consequences.

Solomon is drawn away from the Lord, the many wives aren’t drawn to the Lord, he worships idols.

The kingdom will be taken from his son and given to another except for one tribe.

Memory Verse

Proverbs 3:1-2

My son, do not forget my law, but let your heart keep my commands;
For length of days and long life and peace they will add to you.
