THE ORIGIN STORY OF JESUS
Part 34: A New King |
|
Jesus gave Saul a chance to redeem himself, but he
was driven by fear and unbelief and missed the mark. The Godhead was
not sentimental and had no qualms about relegating the first king of
Israel to the trash heap of history. Saul led a miserable existence
as he watched a lowly shepherd boy rise in fame after defeating the
Philistine giant Goliath in battle. Saul initially liked David, but
he obsessively grew to hate the young man whom the people adored.
When Saul found out the priests at Nob had unwittingly helped David
escape his wrath, he sealed his fate by having them and their
families murdered. Saul started as a king appointed by God and ended
his life as a murderer and liar, rejected by God because of
disobedience. He did not have to fall short; it was a conscious
decision to fail! David did not escape unscathed either as Lucifer
also attacked him with a spirit of fear, opening the door to lying,
murder, and adultery. |
