The Good News of Samson
-We are weak, but God is strong.
-If we put our hope in ourselves or others we become like Samson: weak and enslaved.
-Samson is a reminder that our true strength and hope are found in the Lord.
-Jesus, the ultimate Judge, has now come, and through his life, death, and resurrection he has won the victory for every sinner who, like Samson, finally trusts God’s strength rather than their own.
