Welcome To THE ENQUIRER | Online Bible Study | *LIVE* with Michael E. Jackson || 1 Samuel 2:11-26
In this insightful Bible Study lesson, Pastor Michael E. Jackson contrasted the lives and outcomes of two families found in 1 Samuel 2:11–26: the household of Eli and the household of Elkanah and Hannah. Through this comparison, he demonstrated how obedience, godly parenting, and reverence for God shape the destiny of future generations.
Pastor Jackson highlighted the stark difference between Samuel, who grew in favor with God and man while faithfully serving in the Lord’s house, and Eli’s sons, Hophni and Phinehas, who abused their positions, dishonored God, and led lives marked by disobedience and corruption. While Samuel was being nurtured in a godly environment and responding to God’s calling, Eli’s sons rejected correction and disregarded God’s standards.
The lesson emphasized that spiritual heritage alone is not enough; every person must choose to honor God and walk in obedience. Pastor Jackson also pointed to Hannah’s faithfulness in keeping her vow to God and her commitment to raising Samuel for the Lord’s service as an example of godly influence and dedication.

Children thrive when they are taught to know and honor God.

In Summary:

The lesson challenges believers to build a legacy of faith that will influence future generations for Christ.
