ANARCHY: Tragic consequences

| March 21, 2025 1:00 AM

The book of Judges in the Old Testament is filled with frightening stories about how Israel descended into anarchy. In that state they were easy prey for their enemies to successfully attack.

The last sentence of the book of Judges gives a reason why this occurred: 

“In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.” Judges 21:25. 

Watching current news on TV gives me reason to believe our streets are in a state of anarchy and if left uncontrolled*, will bring tragic consequences. 

*arrests, deportations, jail time, fines…
