History Through Heaven's Eyes
“And Judah was carried away into exile to Babylon for their unfaithfulness.” (1 Chronicles 9:1)
When man writes the history of why Judah was conquered by Babylon, it includes details like the size of the Babylonian empire, the economic failures of Israel, the failed treaties and alliances, and the poor leadership of the nation of Judah.
When God writes the history, He describes the issue more succinctly. It was unfaithfulness. Human history often details the symptoms but misses the disease. It is our job to learn to diagnose with spiritual eyes. The nation fell because it drifted from God. The rest is just incidentals.
Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
