Saul probably did quite a bit more than we are told to drive away the Holy Spirit. A suggested clue might be that God “regretted” making Saul king. The only time I personally remember God just flat-out regretting something He had done is in Genesis. God “regretted” the creation He ...
When God gave me my name, he said I am a new creation in Jesus Christ; the old has gone, the new has come (2 Corinthians 5:17). God’s Word is helping me to understand the meaning of my name and the kind of character I should seek. It tells me to surrender myself, to imitat...
