info_outlineOne of the most shocking realities of scripture is that at the end of Solomon's life, he turned from God. This sobering study reminds us that "but for the grace of God, there go I…" Let us look over this chapter and be reminded of how it must be God that holds on to us, if we are to persevere.
DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:
1. In verses 1 & 2, what was Solomon doing? According to verse 4, how was this affecting his relationship with the Lord? Why do you think this was so?
2. Verse 5 says that Solomon also went after the false gods Ashtoreth and Milcom (aka Molech). What were these false gods about? Why would they have appealed to Solomon? How do people sometimes today go after “gods of our age” that promise something that we want?
3. How was Solomon’s life characterized in verse 6? How was that evidenced in verse 7?
4. The podcast mentions that the hill that Solomon was doing this on was the Mount of Olives. How does God’s future plans for the Mount of Olives show that God’s holiness is not bound by mankind’s evil?
5. As this chapter unfolds, what judgment does God bring upon Solomon and his kingdom?
6. What did the Lord tell Jeroboam in verse 29? Given that Jeroboam is unrelated to David, what is so startling about these promises?
7. The podcast mentions that there is one key promise that is missing from God’s promises to Jeroboam. What was it? Why is that so critical in understanding the plan of God?
8. The podcast lays out Solomon’s spiritual decline. What were the stages that went into it? How could it have been prevented?
9. Is there any warnings about Solomon that are applicable to your life? What steps should you take to deal with them by God’s grace and the transforming power of His Spirit?
