2Sa 13:6, Then Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “PLEASE LET TAMAR MY SISTER COME AND MAKE A COUPLE OF CAKES FOR ME IN MY SIGHT, THAT I MAY EAT FROM HER HAND.”
Amnon believed he loved his sister Yet, it wasn’t love but lust!
2Sa 13:11, Now when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, “COME, LIE WITH ME, MY SISTER.”
2Sa 13:12-14, …”No, my brother, DO NOT FORCE ME, … DO NOT DO THIS DISGRACEFUL THING! And I, where could I take MY SHAME? And as for you, you would be LIKE ONE OF THE FOOLS in Israel. … HE WOULD NOT HEED HER VOICE; AND BEING STRONGER THAN SHE, HE FORCED HER AND LAY WITH HER.
Lev 18:11, …BEGOTTEN BY YOUR FATHER—SHE IS YOUR SISTER—YOU SHALL NOT UNCOVER HER NAKEDNESS.
2Sa 13:15, THEN AMNON HATED HER EXCEEDINGLY, …”ARISE, BE GONE!”
THE LOVE HE HAD WAS REPLACED BY HATE BECAUSE SHE WAS A CONSTANT REMINDER OF HIS SIN! PEOPLE OFTEN MISTAKE LUST FOR LOVE, BUT THIS IS NOT FROM THE FATHER BUT OF THE WORLD! 1John 2:16.
Rom 8:6, FOR TO BE CARNALLY MINDED IS DEATH, BUT TO BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED IS LIFE AND PEACE.
