Thematic Bible: Examples of rebellion against God


Thematic Bible



"Nonetheless they grew disobedient and rebelled against you; they disregarded your law. They killed your prophets who had solemnly admonished them in order to cause them to return to you. They committed atrocious blasphemies.

They do not pray to me, but howl in distress on their beds; They slash themselves for grain and new wine, but turn away from me.

Why do you insist on being battered? Why do you continue to rebel? Your head has a massive wound, your whole body is weak.

The Lord said to Samuel, "Do everything the people request of you. For it is not you that they have rejected, but it is me that they have rejected as their king.

We have rebelled and tried to deceive the Lord; we turned back from following our God. We stir up oppression and rebellion; we tell lies we concocted in our minds.
