“The Dark Night of the Lord’s Anointed”

1 Samuel 28:15-25 - Jerry Scheumann

As Samuel brings a message of God's judgment upon Saul for his sin, we see 7 sobering characteristics of God's wrath that ought to compel the ungodly to flee to Christ for salvation and for God's people to rejoice all the more at the great salvation we have in Christ Jesus.

“King Saul and the Corrosive Sin of Envy”

1 Samuel 18:6-30 - Jerry Scheumann

In contrast to Jonathan's humility and kindness shown to David, King Saul is filled with envy and makes attempt after attempt to kill him. This is a sobering warning against the sin of envy, and a call to fight it by finding contentment in the gracious favor of God in Christ Jesus.
