*THESE TWO MISTAKES COST JUDAH WHAT HE NEVER EXPECTED.*
>_Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his choices._
_Alfred A. Montapert_
>*While we are free to choose our actions, we are not free to choose the consequences of our actions.*
*Stephen R. Covey*
AND THIS IS WHAT I CALLED
👇🏻
👉🏻 *THE PRICE*
*JUDAH PAID GREATLY & DARELY FOR HIS SIN & MISTAKES* NOT ONLY HIM, BUT HIS CHILDREN..
LET'S GO INTO THE MAIN TOPIC........ THE PRICE.
The first PRICE JUDAH paid was the death of his first son.
>(Gen. 38:6-7) Then Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar. But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD, and the LORD killed him........
*It is not surprising that Judah chose a Canaanite wife for his son Er, since he himself was married to a Canaanite.* We were never told what Er’s wickedness was, but obviously it was evil enough that God brought immediate judgment upon him.
*Note* _Growing up with a father from such a troubled family, with a mother who was a Canaanite & a Cannanite wife did not help Er to live a godly life.
What will happen to you in life either positively or negatively lies on your choice. Who you marry will either make or mare your life.
Let now go to the second PRICE.....
*THE SECOND PRICE*
THE DEATH OF HIS SECOND SON.
GEN. 38: 8-10
>Go in to your brother’s wife and marry her, and raise up an heir to your brother : This was done according to the custom of levirate marriage (later codified into law in
>(Deuteronomy 25:5-10 ). If a man died before providing sons to his wife, it was the duty of his brothers to marry her and to give her sons. The child was considered the son of the brother who died, because the living brother only acted in his place *(Onan knew that the heir would not be his).*
*Onan will have sex with Tamar & emitted on the ground.*
Guys Please come here... let's learn from the life of Onan.
Ladies you too come here.........
*Onan pursued sex as only a pleasurable experience. If he really didn’t want to father a child by Tamar, he should never have had sex with her at all.* *My brother, you've already known that you can't marry that sister, why still lying to her & using her as a sex mate???* You'll pay the PRICE someday, it is not negotiable.....!
*My sister... you know you Don't need this brother... why collecting his money and still promising him you'll marry him.??* You'll pay greatly for it one day if you Don't stop.
Onan paid with his life.
THE PRICE!!!!!! To be continued......!
