1. SEBTS Chapel - Ben F. Philbeck January 22, 1986

Description:
Dr. Ben F. Philbeck was the Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at Southeastern Seminary. The service begins with organ music (0:00-3:12). The congregation sings a hymn (3:13-6:22). There is a Scripture reading from I Samuel 8 and a moment of prayer (6:23-8:30). The choir sings a song of worship (8:31-11:31). Philbeck gives his reasoning for calling a Biblical account a “story” and the impact of a story (11:32-15:52). Philbeck recounts a portion of Israel’s history in which they request a king (15:53-19:15). He speaks of the fear people have of growing old (19:16-22:19). Philbeck says Samuel took personally the Israelite’s request for a king, yet he sought God’s wisdom (22:20-24:21). Philbeck states that many people would rather lose their freedom to have someone else solve problems for them (24:22-28:52). Philbeck encourages the congregation that God will preserve His leadership in our lives (28:53-29:30). Philbeck closes the service in a moment of prayer (29:31-30:21).
