David’s Betrayal
Bijan Mirtolooi | June 7, 2015
Overview
Modern people tend to bristle at the Bible’s prognosis that there is something fundamentally wrong with all of us: that unmanageable sin lurks in every human heart and desires our ultimate destruction. The story of David’s sin with Bathsheba and the avalanche of evil that followed illustrate this in the most perplexing way. In the matter of a page turn, David goes from a “man after God’s own heart” to a covetous, adulterous, deceitful, murderer. But God sends a friend in the prophet Nathan, who confronts David with a perfect balance of truth and grace, and brings him to a life-saving repentance. This king received God’s pardon because of the future king who would fully bear David’s guilt and ours.
