Cause and Effect

Judges 2:10-11 NLT
After that generation died, another generation grew up who did not acknowledge the Lord or remember the mighty things he had done for Israel. Then the Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight . . .

God created the law of cause and effect in this creation. Doing evil was the effect, but it wasn't the cause. We don't do evil in a vacuum; we do evil because there is something that happens within us prior to that.

We don't acknowledge the Lord. We don't remember the mighty things He has done (accounted in the Bible).
