Samson and His Faith

In many people’s thinking, Samson is inseparably connected to Delilah, and they seem to think that the entirety of his life as recorded in Scripture has to do with his moral weaknesses and sexual lusts. Thus they say that he is the classic case of one who has “charisma without character.”

However, that is an incomplete and inaccurate portrayal of his life. The Scripture’s own commentary on Samson is that he was a man of faith, one of whom “the world was not worthy” (Hebrews 11:38).
