·        He fought a one man battle with the massive strength that God had given him.

·        However, he was weak in other ways and cared more about himself than about God.

·        Samson was a judge. Judge ruled over tribal districts.

·        The Spirit of the Lord made Samson strongest man alive.

·        With just his bare hands, Samson killed a lion.

·        Samson used the jaw bone of a donkey to destroy 1,000 Philistine soldiers.

·        That made the Philistine very angry.
