*THE INIQUITY OF ELI's HOUSE*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  23 September 2023*


SCRIPTURE: And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering for ever - *1 Samuel 3:14*


The aforementioned Bible Text is one of the heart breaking Verses of the Scripture. 


The Lord said that He has sworn that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering forever.


The anger of God endures but a moment - *Psalms 30:5*


And the Mercy of God endures forever - *1 Chronicles 16:34*


*The implication of the Message to the house of Eli are as follows:*


*(1)* The anger of God upon the house shall be forever - *Psalms 7:11*


*(2)* No one in Eli's lineage will enjoy the Mercy of God.


*(3)* The house is cursed forever - *1 Samuel 2:32*


*(4)* Every blessing of the house will come with sorrow - *1 Samuel 4:21*


*(5)* The Destiny of  everyone in the house will be frustrated - *1 Samuel 2:30*


*(6)* No one in the lineage will end well - *Isaiah 3:11*


*(7)* No one in the lineage of Eli will make Heaven.


*What a great disaster and Judgement for the house of Eli.*


*What caused this fearful Judgement?*


*(1)* The house took the love of God for granted.


The house was chosen to stand before God forever but they violated the Privilege - *1 Samuel 2:28-29*


*(2)* The house honours men more than God - *1 Samuel 3:13*


*(3)* The house was living in sin without repentance - *1 Samuel 3:12, Proverbs 28:13*


*(4)* The house was indifferent to the repeated warnings of the Lord - *1 Samuel 3:18*


*(5)* The house dared God.


Eli said the Lord should do what seemed Good - *1 Samuel 3:18*


He Preferred the Punishment of God to His Mercy.


What a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God - *Hebrews 10:31*


*Prayer:*

Father, Please help me and my house not to follow the way of the house of Eli.
