Welcome to the Paul Tripp podcast, where pastor and best-selling author Paul David Tripp

connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life. In a fallen world, things are not always what

they seem. Such is the case in 2 Samuel 6, when the Lord kills Uza 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 how His holiness is our only hope.

Now here's Paul with today's sermon.

It's so easy to bring God in the court of your judgment. It's so easy to bring God in the court of your judgment.

It's so easy to judge him as perhaps being unfaithful, unloving, unkind, having turned his back on his promises to you.

Think about this with me for a moment.

When is the last time God left you confused?

Some of you are smiling.

Must be recent.

Be honest this evening.

When is the last time you are mad at God?

When is the last time in your mind as you tried to hold on to your faith, you were thinking, what in the world

is going on? Could this be the God I've placed my hope in? Could this be the God I've placed my hope in?

Could this be the God that I have placed my trust in? This doesn't seem like the God I know. wins is the last time you brought god into the temporary court of your own judgment

i'd like you to turn in your bibles the pew or church bible Church Bible, and to 2nd Samuel chapter 6.
