Conquest, Concubines and David

Two questions answered - why did God command Joshua (and others) to completely destroy the Canaanites, and how does that apply today?

Second question - why did God allow David's concubines to be raped by Absalom? Is it right for others to suffer for someone else's sin?

These are difficult questions, but we need to look at them squarely. When we face them, as tough as they are, we will see the beauty of Jesus and the joy of our redemption.
