Not Violent or Greedy for Gain (Judges 12)

What happens when we don’t know when to stop fighting? In Judges 12, Jephthah wins a battle against Israel’s enemies, but then turns around and fights against his own people. What began as a fight to rescue God’s people becomes something very different.As we continue into the stories of the minor judges, we see another troubling pattern. Leaders who were supposed to care for God’s people increasingly use their position to build their own wealth, influence, and power.While Judges gives us a picture of what not to do, Titus 1 points us toward something better: people who are humble, self-controlled, loving, and eager to serve others.
