Omri did what was evil in the sight of YHVH, and did more evil than all who were before him.
1 Kings 16:25
Omri is one of the few Israelite kings recorded in foreign histories, being recognized in the annals of the Hittites as a great leader and economist. Yet God dismisses him as just another evildoer. His greatest crime? He trusted in horses, chariots, and gold rather than in YHVH.
What brings the greatest joy to a pastor’s heart? Dr. David Jones shares that with us in this conclusion to our conversation. After three decades of ministry and many years as pastor of Ruach Ministries International, David has some understanding of that question. Knowledge of the Word of God is a big part of it, but, as he explains, knowledge means little if it’s not paired with love and humility.
The theme of David’s interview carries over into the midrash he brings with Barry Phillips which they call, “Unity and Community,” and which Teshuva and Mason Clover present in their musical offerings.

I hope you read this whole comic and go and read all the verses listed and read the surrounding stuff, too. Paul is quoting the Law heavily in this chapter. You have to take Paul out of context of the rest of Scripture, and ignore what he is quoting, to come to the conclusion that his point is that the Law has ended, no longer to be followed.
If keeping everything I am pointing out here in context, verse 10:4 is actually telling us that Christ is who we are aiming to live like, He is our goal. Isn't that what we have been taught all our lives in church?
