THE INCALCULABLE CONSEQUENCES OF A LEADER'S INFLUENCE
I Kings 12:1-3
This passage talked about three persons:
- Solomon
- Rehoboam
- Jeroboam
They were kings and leaders over Israel. The consequences of these people had long lasting effects. These people are:
- Solomon
- His son (Rehoboam)
- His servant (Jeroboam)
The consequent of one life over other people. The ongoing influence of one man over a nation.
Daniel 12:3; 8:10-12
The other side of the coin of Daniel 12:3 is that "They that turn many into unrighteousness shall suffer as fallen stars for ever and ever"
Malachi 2:8,9; Isaiah 9:16; Jeremiah 18:15; 23:14,15; Daniel 12:2

1. REHOBOAM: THE SON AND THE SORROW OF SOLOMON
2. JEROBOAM: THE SERVANT AND THE SCOURGE OF SOLOMON
3. JUDGEMENT: SUFFERING FOR SINNING SON AND SERVANT

1. REHOBOAM: THE SON AND THE SORROW OF SOLOMON
I Kings 11:43; 12:12-17; 14:21-22; 15:1-3,8,9; II Chronicles 15:2; 16:2-4,7-10,13
The kingdom that Solomon gathered broke in the hands of Rehoboam
The trend of kings in Israel after Solomon went from: Rehoboam - > Abijam - > Asa and the rest
II Kings 25:8-10,21
Solomon anticipated that his son will be a sorrow to him. Rehoboam lost every precious treasure that Solomon had made.
Proverbs 17:21,25; 19:13,26; 28:7; Ecclesiastics 2:17-20

2. JEROBOAM: THE SERVANT AND THE SCOURGE OF SOLOMON
I Kings 11:9-11,26-31,33,40; 12:20; Joshua 23:13
Jeroboam, Solomon servant was used as a scourge for Solomon. He too soon forgot and led Israel to sin. I Kings 11:35,37,38; 12:26-30
He couldn't remember that the word of God said thou shalt not worship Idol. It means Solomon didn't give priority to the word of God but was only given to building and executing projects.
I Kings 12:31; 13:33; II Kings 17:6-11,13,14,21-23
Israel under the perpetual evil of Jeroboam continued in sin until there was no remedy. Because of their influence, many suffered then; many are still suffering while many will still suffer

3. JUDGEMENT: SUFFERING FOR SINNING SON AND SERVANT
Amos 3:1,2; Jeremiah 9:25; Numbers 15:30; Hosea 9:9,15,17; Ecclesiastics 12:13,14; I Chronicles 28:9; Psalm 9:16,17; Isaiah 33:13,14; Matthew 11:23,24; Jude 1:7-13;
Here is the warning God is giving us now : Hebrews 10:26-31; 9:27
