from 2022-02-13T22:00
SHOW NOTES:
In Podcast Episode 153, “In the Hall of Faith or in a Hall of Shame,” Kim discusses the ending of the life of Israelite King Saul and some lessons which can be learned from his story in a Hall of Shame. May each of us commit to being faithful to the Lord, obey the Lord’s commands, and ask the Lord for guidance.
The primary scripture texts for this episode are 1 Samuel 31 and 1 Chronicles 10 with 1 Chronicles 10:13-14 as the focal verses.
13 So Saul died because he was unfaithful to the Lord. He failed to obey the Lord’s command, and he even consulted a medium 14 instead of asking the Lord for guidance. So the Lord killed him and turned the kingdom over to David son of Jesse.
ADDITIONAL VERSES:
1 Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see. 2 Through their faith, the people in days of old earned a good reputation….39 All these people earned a good reputation because of their faith, yet none of them received all that God had promised. 40 For God had something better in mind for us, so that they would not reach perfection without us. (Hebrews 11:1-2, 39-40)
