Sinning and Repenting
By A.B. Simpson0JDG 2:14A.B. Simpson's sermon 'Sinning and Repenting' explores the cyclical nature of sin and repentance as illustrated in the Book of Judges. He emphasizes how Israel repeatedly turned away from God, leading to their oppression, yet God, in His mercy, raised up judges to deliver them whenever they cried out in repentance.

He highlights the importance of personal dependence on God rather than on human leaders, and the necessity of true-hearted repentance for restoration. Ultimately, the sermon encourages believers to seek a deeper relationship with God to avoid the pitfalls of spiritual declension.
