The Promise of Samson

When we think of Samson, first and foremost, we need to think of him as one set apart unto the Lord. Samson’s renowned strength can only be secondary to the call of holiness upon his life. In this lesson, Dr. Godfrey creates a character sketch of Samson’s parents upon their receiving the promise of his birth and outlines the express instruction they received to consecrate him to the Lord.
