Forsaking God:
1.
How is man seen to be forsaking God?
1 Samuel 8:8
As they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt
until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you.
2 How man forsakes God?
1 By forsaking the law of God:
Psalms 89:30
“If his sons forsake my law and do not follow my statutes,
2. By failure to walk in the law of the
Lord:
2 Kings 10:31
Yet Jehu was not careful to keep the law of the LORD, the God
of Israel, with all his heart. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam,
which he had caused Israel to commit.
3.
By casting away God’s law:
Isaiah 5:24
Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass
sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away
like dust; for they have rejected the law of the LORD Almighty and spurned the
word of the Holy One of Israel.
4. By despising the law of the Lord:
Amos 2:4
This is what the LORD says: “For three sins of Judah, even
for four, I will not turn back my wrath. Because they have rejected the law of
the LORD and have not kept his decrees, because they have been led astray by
false gods, the gods their ancestors followed,
5. By forgetting the law of the Lord:
Proverbs 3:1
My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in
your heart,
6. By not fearing the law of the Lord
Jeremiah 44:10
To this day they have not humbled themselves or shown
reverence, nor have they followed my law and the decrees I set before you and
your fathers.
