In a fallen world, things are not always what they seem to be. Such is the case in 2 Samuel 6, when the Lord kills Uzzah for simply touching the Ark of the Covenant in the wrong fashion. We are drawn to question God - "is this really the God I choose to serve?" In today’s episode, we return to Paul’s sermon series from the archives, David: A Matter of the Heart. This week, Paul explains that this story is actually a case study about the holiness of God, and that His holiness is our only hope.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.
