Pastor John,
I have been listening to an Old Testament teaching CD this morning. You were describing how Eli knew it wasn’t right for his sons to use the ark the way they did, but he wouldn’t stop them. He just couldn’t tell his children no. He was afraid of his own children’s displeasure, pouting, and anger. So he let them go to hell. That’s some kinda love, isn’t it?
Then you went on to tell how Eli honored his sons above God because he let them take the chiefest of the offerings, which was the fat that belonged only to God. This is on cd 5 of the Old Testament CD #2032.
