- christiansermo... Bad Boys Part 1 - Pastor Walter Pearson. It is a sermon on the immoral behavior of Eli's children who held in contempt temple sacrifices and were punished by God as a result.
Eli was priest and judge in Israel. He held the highest and most responsible positions among the people of God. As a man divinely chosen for the sacred duties of the priesthood and set over the land as the highest judicial authority, he was looked up to as an example, and he wielded a profound influence over the tribes of Israel. But although he had been appointed to govern the people, he did not rule his own household. Eli was an indulgent father. Loving peace and ease, he did not exercise his authority to correct the evil habits and passions of his children. Rather than contend with them or punish them, he would submit to their will and give them their own way. Instead of regarding the education of his sons as one of the most important of his responsibilities, he treated the matter as of little consequence. The priest and judge of Israel had not been left in darkness as to the duty of restraining and governing the children that God had given to his care. But Eli shrank from this duty, because it involved crossing the will of his sons, and would make it necessary to punish and deny them. Without weighing the terrible consequences that would follow his course, he indulged his children in whatever they desired and neglected the work of fitting them for the service of God and the duties of life.
God had said of Abraham, "I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment." Genesis 18:19. But Eli allowed his children to control him. The father became subject to the children. The curse of transgression was apparent in the corruption and evil that marked the course of his sons. They had no proper appreciation of the character of God or of the sacredness of His law. His service was to them a common thing. From childhood they had been accustomed to the sanctuary and its service; but instead of becoming more reverent, they had lost all sense of its holiness and significance. The father had not corrected their want of reverence for his authority, had not checked their disrespect for the solemn services of the sanctuary; and when they reached manhood, they were full of the deadly fruits of skepticism and rebellion.
Though wholly unfit for the office, they were placed as priests in the sanctuary to minister before God. The Lord had given the most specific directions in regard to offering sacrifices; but these wicked men carried their disregard of authority into the service of God, and did not give attention to the law of the offerings, which were to be made in the most solemn manner. The sacrifices, pointing forward to the death of Christ, were designed to preserve in the hearts of the people faith in the Redeemer to come; hence it was of the greatest importance that the Lord's directions concerning them should be strictly heeded. The peace offerings were especially an expression of thanksgiving to God. In these offerings the fat alone was to be burned upon the altar; a certain specified portion was reserved for the priests, but the greater part was returned to the offerer, to be eaten by him and his friends in a sacrificial feast. Thus all hearts were to be directed, in gratitude and faith, to the great Sacrifice that was to take away the sin of the world.
The sons of Eli, instead of realizing the solemnity of this symbolic service, only thought how they could make it a means of self-indulgence. Not content with the part of the peace offerings allotted them, they demanded an additional portion; and the great number of these sacrifices presented at the annual feasts gave the priests an opportunity to enrich themselves at the expense of the people. They not only demanded more than their right, but refused to wait even until the fat had been burned as an offering to God. They persisted in claiming whatever portion pleased them, and, if denied, threatened to take it by violence. EGW

Oohh yes message home! I'm blessed...
I worked at a Seventh-Day Adventist Church, where the Pastor laid with a woman at the gate of the Church at night fornicating. People abhorred giving their tithe there and started to give tithe to me and my team who were Bible Workers. The Pastor told me to RECANT and they fired me on Tuesday morning, on the 6th. I worked there 6 months and they gave me 6 days to leave. It was a modern day 1 Samuel 2.
He’s legit!
He is speaking the truth that's why God dealt with those bad boys.
There was no temple back then, it was the tabernacle. The temple didn't become set up until King Solomon. Also, those women he's talking about were servants who spent their lives working as servants at the entrance of the tabernacle. They weren't "coming to the tabernacle to get holy." Good lesson, appealed to the common sense of people, but this guy seems to be pretty weak on the scripture. I guess that's why he calls himself a "pastor." He might not know any better. There is no pastor in Christ's church. A preacher MAY NOT be in charge of a church. It is forbidden. Also, after hearing more of this guy's lesson, he's now saying that the priests practice of putting the skewer into the meat after it was boiled was condoned by God. THAT WAS NEVER CONDONED BY GOD, THAT WAS A SIN. The priests were doing that in contradiction of the commandment in Leviticus 7 that they were only to get the right thigh and breast. Wow this guy needs to study. I despise lessons that are scripturally incorrect. This is shameful.
Oliver North humm He is right about the temple (1 Samuel 1:9)
Please read 1 Samuel to 5 Samuel
You are the one who is wrong, I guess you are just jealous of the way he preached because you cannot even present it that way. You are the one that should be ashamed of.
You are a piece of self righteous work! The word of God is presented and people are being taught what God expects and YOU turn up like Mr. Know-it-all? You look foolish and you are ignorant of what it entails to become a Seventh-day Adventist Pastor! YOU need to read, get pertinent information and stop drawing from the reservoir of your ignorance! You surely do not know half as much as you think you do! Take your mouth off the Lord’s anointed! How many have you brought to Jesus with all your so called knowledge of what is true and right? How many have you brought to Jesus with your critical, bitter spirit? You need help! Go to God ASAP and pray in repentance like David did!
