JEZEBEL'S gods THROUGH THE BIBLE session:1

-

 The god and goddess of Jezebel is a constant mention in the Bible,ever since the people of Israel walked into the land of Canaan. God told them not to follow the ways of the Canaanites, but they disobeyed on this. Constantly they walked away from the God of Israel and worshiped other gods and goddess. The so far archaeological finds to point the religious system of the Canaanites to be brutal in its nature there were evidence of child sacrifice, sexual perversion, prostitution,idol worship of different kinds, lawless leaders as king and queen,flaunting wrong use of authority. so on so forth.


The Canaanites made the Israelite's to walk in their path of unrighteousness by worshiping pagan gods.

After the death of Joshua, people again strayed away from the path of the Lord and followed pagan gods. 

The story of Gideon, the destroyer unfolds: Gideon was visited by an angel of  the Lord giving Gideon his calling as mighty man who is going to save Israel from the hands of the Midianites. He was supposed to destroy the altar of baal and ashtaroth in their village, which he did.The people of the village came against the destoryer of the altar and Gideon's father saved him by telling the people; if baal is god let him fight for himself. This saved Gideon and motivated him to go on war with Midianites. Gideon won the battle and there came release for Israel. But after the death of Gideon, people again followed other gods.    

Judges 2:12-13

and they forsook the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods from among the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed themselves down to them; thus they provoked the Lord to anger. So they forsook the Lord and served Baal and the Ashtaroth.

Judges 3:7

The sons of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, and forgot the Lord their God and served the Baals and the Asheroth.

Judges 6:31-32

But Joash said to all who stood against him, “Will you contend for Baal, or will you deliver him? Whoever will plead for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has torn down his altar.” Therefore on that day he named him Jerubbaal, that is to say, “Let Baal contend against him,” because he had torn down his altar.

Judges 8:33

Then it came about, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the sons of Israel again played the harlot with the Baals, and made Baal-berith their god.

Judges 10:6

Then the sons of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord, served the Baals and the Ashtaroth, the gods of Aram, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the sons of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines; thus they forsook the Lord and did not serve Him.
