“Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD; he did not keep the word of the LORD and even consulted a medium for guidance,”
~ 1 Chronicles 10:13
Hi James and Ellen,
Do you think that God punishes guys, gals and kids for doing something that He – as God the Spirit, had different guys scribe in what is now the Bible not to do? Do you think that God rewards guys, gals and kids for doing something that He – as God the Spirit, had different guys scribe in what is now the Bible to do? If you think that God punishes guys, gals and kids for doing something that He – as God the Spirit, had different guys scribe in what is now the Bible not to do, how do you think that God punishes guys, gals and kids if they do something that He – as God the Spirit, had different guys scribe in what is now the Bible not to do? If you think that God rewards guys, gals and kids for doing something that that He – as God the Spirit, had different guys scribe in what is now the Bible to do, how do you think that God rewards guys, gals and kids if they do something that He – as God the Spirit, had different guys scribe in what is now the Bible to do? The Chronicler recounts in 1 Chronicles 10 Saul’s last day of life. Saul was God’s specially chosen guys and gals – the Israelite people groups guys and gals, first anointed king. Saul became king by default over the Israelite people groups guys and gals after God’s specially chosen guys and gals would not let up with a misguided aspiration that they should be like their neighboring nations and people groups of guys and gals who had kings reigning over them. Before Saul was positioned as the first anointed king over the Israelite people groups guys and gals, God’s specially chosen guys and gals had survived for 325 years in the land that God gave to them to always to have to live in as their very own land if . . . with a succession of guys and one gal who surfaced as judges within Israelite people groups clans who kept guys from neighboring enemy nations and people groups of guys and gals at bay. Saul was doing his own thing – minding his own business, when Samuel tapped him with God’s specific instructions to do so for Saul to be the first king over the Israelite people groups guys and gals. Your grandpaa believes that God preprogrammed – before He began unfolding His cosmos masterpiece, everything and anything to the absolute minute detail which takes place on planet Earth and throughout the entire universe. After Saul assumed the role as king over the Israel people group guys and gals, Saul would become maniacal at times. Your grandpaa knows that God hardwired Saul to be the way that he was as king over His specially chosen guys and gals but . . . Saul’s legacy as a king would not be a good one. Verse 13 says, “Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD; he did not keep the word of the LORD and even consulted a medium for guidance,”
Do you think that God could have made designing goofs in different souls as He programmed anything and everything in souls in a minute way to unfold nanosecond after nanosecond? Your grandpaa hopes that you will never forget that God’s creation of a universe – which is infinite, is just one scene in a real life drama that awaits the real life final act when fallen angels, demons, Satan’s humanoid minions and every other evil being will be sent to a hellish fire pit to suffer incomprehensible anguishes. Saul may have been one of Satan’s humanoid players who God permitted Satan to employ as one of his gofers to . . . your grandpaa believes that in order for a guy, gal or kid to understand what is good; a guy, gal or kid has to experience in one way or another the ugliness and darkness that God has allowed a fallen angel – Lucifer (Satan), to integrate into His divinely programmed and choreographed plan. Your grandpaa believes that God allowed Saul to become so misguided by Satan’s influencers that when it became obvious to him that he had been defeated by guys from an enemy people group – the Philistine people group, Saul killed himself by falling on his sword. Philistine people group’s guys had already killed Malki-Shua, Abinadab and Jonathan – who were Saul’s kids, during the battle at Mount Gilboa. When Saul took an arrow from a Philistine people group archer, Saul opted for the suicide out. Saul chose immediate death through killing himself instead of waiting for Philistine people group’s guys to do him in. Your grandpaa believes that God had predestined that . . . the punch line of Saul’s death is that he died because of his unfaithfulness to God. God’s indictment of Saul’s failure to always go to Him for help should be a clear warning to every guy, gal and kid everywhere to make absolutely sure at all times that the Omniscient Creator – God the Father, is firmly ensconced in his or her heart.
The Philistine people group guys cut off Saul’s head. The Philistine people group’s guys took Saul’s head and Saul’s armor back to where they lived – where they put Saul’s head in the temple of Dagon and Saul’s armor in the temple of their gods. Your grandpaa thinks that God allowed Satan to set up Saul for failure to teach His specially chosen guys and gals to better appreciate their next king – who would be David. Saul – as king, was just a micro pawn on a borderless playing board that will ultimately involve a future war of principalities. Your grandpaa does not like to think of lives/souls as God’s pawns and Satan’s minions but . . . as much as Saul probably really deserved to die, his kid Jonathan was a good kid – who had befriended David, who really did not deserve to die. The universe that God created is in constant metamorphose heading for the exact moment when God – as God the Son, will return to planet Earth to lead the blitz to eradicate once and fall all what is evil and to rule over only what is good. Your grandpaa believes that God is always in total control of His handiwork and that He will not change anything that He has scripted. Your grandpaa believes that God has him on planet Earth at this time to reflect His glory back to Him.
