The Ark finds a Resting Place
Just how significant is the Ark of the Covenant? Why did the Lord strike Uzzah dead for touching the Ark? Just as "The ends justify the means" mentality is wrong, good intentions do not guarantee good results if we neglect the warnings of God! How is Uzzah's sin like Ananias and Sapphira's sin from the New Testament? How does David do things differently the second time? How does David get away with doing sacrifices when it was the job of the priests to perform the sacrifices?
What principles can we learn from David's dancing before the Ark? W.G. Blaikie says it well, "There are, doubtless, times to be calm, and times to be enthusiastic; but can it be right to give all our coldness to Christ and all our enthusiasm to the world?"
