The LORD tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence.
Psalm 11:5
Problem #1: Absence of Godliness (8:33-9:6)
Consequence #1: Discord and Lack of Peace (9:7-29)
Problem #2: Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely (9:30-52)
Consequence #2: You Reap What You Sow—Death (9:53-57)
Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
Galatians 6:7-8
And [one woman] threw an upper millstone on Abimelech’s head and crushed his skull.
Judges 9:53
Which is better for you, that all seventy of the sons of Jerubbaal rule over you, or that [one man] over you?
Judges 9:2
And he went to his father’s house at Ophrah and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, seventy men, on one stone.
Judges 9:5
Ceasing godliness and striving for power will lead to spiritual death.
Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. For as by the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous.
Romans 5:18-19
