The Beginning of the End (of the Kingdom of Israel)

Chapter 16 of The Story (2 Kings 17-19; Isaiah 3; 6; 13-14; 49; 53)

KEY TEXT: Isaiah 38:16-17 (NLT)

Lord, your discipline is good, for it leads to life and health. You restore my health and allow me to live! Yes, this anguish was good for me, for you have rescued me from death and forgiven all my sins.

TIMELESS TRUTH: Discipline is a product of both love and justice.
