The Bible teaches that God is just and His judgment against unfaithfulness is certain, as seen in the fate of Eli and his sons.
God's judgment against unfaithfulness is an unavoidable principle, as illustrated in the story of Eli and his sons in 1 Samuel. Eli's neglect in correcting his sons' sinful behavior led to severe consequences. God declared that Eli's house would be judged because he honored his sons above Him (1 Samuel 2:29). This reflects the broader biblical principle that God does not condone sin and will hold individuals accountable for their actions. Galatians 6:7 reminds us, 'Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.' Therefore, those who act unfaithfully will face God's just judgment.
