With God: In History - Samson [16]

With God: In History - Samson [16]

Author: Christ Community, an Evangelical Free Church April 19, 2026 Duration: 32:33

Judges 16:23-31 // Jacob Vangen

In this sermon, we look at the final moments of Samson’s life within the temple of Dagon. We discuss the irony of the Philistines celebrating a victory they credited to a false god, while the true source of Samson’s power prepared for one final display of justice. We analyze the layout of the temple, the significance of the two central pillars, and Samson’s prayer for strength. Through this study, we see how God can use even a flawed and fallen leader to bring about his will, showing that his power is made perfect in weakness and that he remains faithful to his word even when his servants have stumbled.
