[28] 21 - Kings for Israel

After Israel’s conquest period, the final judge to lead Israel was the prophet Samuel. At that time, the people demanded to have a human king, just like the nations around them. They no longer wanted God as their divine King. Yahweh agreed to this evil request, but under His terms. The human king must be chosen by Him and come under His authority. The king was not to be the ultimate authority. God chose Saul as the first king but his heart was disobedient. He treated himself as the ultimate authority, the very thing God warned kings against. His reign ended in disaster. God rejected him as king and he died a tragic death. Access the notes at: https://interlocked.online/s/21-Kings-for-Israel.pdf
