1st Samuel 4:1-11
Why were the Israelites defeated during their war with the Philistines when the covenant box was with them?Because the trust of the Israelites during their fight with the Philistines was not on the living God who gave them the covenant but on the Ark of covenant , they treated the ark of the Covenant as an amulet.
Let it be a reminder to me that the living God whom we Christians believed is a spirit that does not dwell on things made by human hands.
Outward symbols of faith like the church, temples, worship places, crucifix, scapular, images, can not save me from danger. Its only my faith in the living God thru Jesus Christ his son , that I am secured.
