Judges 19, the depravity of man!

Jdg 19:1, And it came to pass in those days, WHEN THERE WAS NO KING IN ISRAEL, that there was a certain Levite staying in the remote mountains of Ephraim. 

Jdg 19:20, And the old man said, “Peace be with you! However, let all your needs be my responsibility; ONLY DO NOT SPEND THE NIGHT IN THE OPEN SQUARE.” 

On the way back home to Ephraim they looked for shelter in Gibeah, a city of Benjamin!

Jdg 19:22, …SUDDENLY CERTAIN MEN OF THE CITY, PERVERTED MEN, SURROUNDED THE HOUSE AND BEAT ON THE DOOR. They spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, “BRING OUT THE MAN WHO CAME TO YOUR HOUSE, THAT WE MAY KNOW HIM CARNALLY!” 

Jdg 19:24, Look, HERE IS MY VIRGIN DAUGHTER AND THE MAN’S CONCUBINE; LET ME BRING THEM OUT NOW. HUMBLE THEM, and do with them AS YOU PLEASE; but to this man do not do such a vile thing!” 

ISRAEL WAS NOW AS BAD AS SODOM AND GOMORRAH! BECAUSE THEY DID NOT FOLLOW THE LORD! ONE DAY THE RESTRAINER WILL BE REMOVED AND THE WORLD WILL RETURN TO IT’S SADISTIC WAYS!

2Th 2:7, For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.

WITHOUT GOD RESTRAINING THE WORLD IS GOING TO FALL INTO CHAOS! IT’S NEAR AND THE SIGNS OF IT’S COMING ARE NOW VISIBLE! PREPARE FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD!
