The cost of covetousness

2 Sam 12

Essentially, David’s downfall was a result of wanting what was off-limits to him … Bathsheba. He SAW her, wanted her, and TOOK her. Regardless of how he may have tried to justify his actions, it was SIN.

Especially for men, the eye-gate needs rigorous discipline. Job said, “I have made a Covenant with my eyes. Why then should I think (immorally) about a maid.” [Job 31:1]
