I read it. I notice how the author glossed over David’s flaws quickly moving on.

God forgave them.

Did you?

Cause it sure doesn’t sound like it.

Love keeps no record of wrongs.

So what would satisfy you? To have Scripture explicitly state that David was damned to hell? Would that make you feel better?

While you’re at it, then Moses needs to join him can Moses was a murder, as was Paul.

I for one, am GRATEFUL for the accounts of the real lives of all the OT saints, warts and all. It’s an encouragement to see God’s mercy and grace poured out on people in spite of their flaws, not withheld because of them.

Don’t forget, Jesus told us that with whatever measure we use, it will be measured back to us.

Do you want God judging you the way you are judging others?
