GOLDEN TEXT-BIjold, to obey is bet ter than sacrifice.-I Samuel 15:22. Jonathan's victory (ch. 14) brough with it a sinning on the part of th hungry, harassed Israelites in tha they ate of the spoils "with the blood' (14:31, 32; Lev. 3:17, 7:26). In thf emergency Saul erected "the 'first al tar that lie built unto the Lord" (cl 14:35), a rather dilatory act on th part of a God-anointed king. Saul hat resorted to the subterfuge of com manding the people "to roll a grea stone," i.e., cut the throats of the ani mals of which they had eaten tha1 they might bleed, and thus be an evi dence that the animals had died be fore being eaten. This the people did fearing Saul, but having no scruplei in transgressing God's commands These same people rescued Jonathat from the foolish vow of Saul, for 11 was his faith and valor that had chief ly brought about the victory. I. God's Sorrow, vv. 10-12. Samue had first revealed God's purpose it making Saul king, and likewise firs declared God's purpose to dispose o Saul (v. 10). Saul's actions (vv. 1-9 had stamped him as being no longe worthy of God's confidence. -Th word "repenteth," meaning "to sigh (v. -11), denotes a change of feelin due to Saul's actions and not to an: change in the character, purpose o desires of Good. God was sorry tha Saul had proved himself unworthy A half-way obedience of God's con mand only heightened his guill "Whatever moral difficulti6s seem t lie, for a later age, in Saul's commis sion against Amalek, there were non such for him" (Vaughn). Man's re pentance involves a change of min( and purpose. In Saul's case God re pented, changed the instrument of hii execution, because of the change o circumstances and relation. God ii ever the same; it is man alone whi changes. Saul had given Samue cause for anger (v. 11 R. V.), but h, did the wise thing in taking it to Go, in prayer. Arising early the nex morning Samuel hastened to acquain Saul with Jehovah's message. It I remarkable of how many of the grea men of the Bible it is said that the rose early, Abraham, Gideon, Joshul Job, Jacob, Moses, etc., not to forge our Lord Jesus. II. Samuel's Rebuke, vv. 13-19. 1 must have been a striking scene whe the aged Nazarite prophet faced th proud but recreanit king. A guilt conscience is often covered by a grea show or piety (v. 13), but such act cannot stifle the conviction of th heiirt nor deceive the righteous judgi Sin proclaims itself even as Samuel' sharp question brought convictio: from the lips of Saul (v. 14; Prol 28:13). Saul thought to deceive San nel by using a falsehood (v. 15). The only safe course is to confess ou sins (Ps. 32:15; I. John 1:9). There is an interesting suggestion in thi way Saul uses the impersonal "they and "we" in verse 15, as if to la: the guilt of his acts upon others. I Is easy for the sinner to -blame other and seek to minimize his own gull (Rem. 14:12). Verse 9 clearly ix dicates wihy Saul and the people has spared the best of the cattle. To us a part only for God and the rest fo self In direct disobedience to God' rights or the rights of others 1s t incur his righteous wrath (vv. 22, 23: liI. Saul's Self-Rejection, vv, 20.2: God set Saul aside because he hla rejected the right and chose th wrong. Face to face with .his si Saul could not dodge tile Issue. San uel's "wherefore" (v. 19) must hav aroused Saul's guilty conscience. is a question which should reach ever tempted soul. Samuel characterize Saul's sin as being due to stubborm ness, rebellion, disobedience and a r4 jection of God (v. 19). Again Sat seeks to evade his responlsibility (v' 20, 21). Then Samuel speaks plainl (v. 22) comparing his sin of disobed ence 'with witchcraft, stubbornnesj Iniquity and Idolatry. Plainly he tell Saul, "Because thou hast rejected th wvord of the Lord, he hath also rejec ed thee from being king" (v. 23). Driven thus to a corner Saul mad a confession of his guilt (v. 24) bu spoiled it all by acknowledging tha he had greater fear of the people tha of God. This is Easter Sunday, our reproac has been removed, not at Gilgal bu on Calvary. The unchanging Go hates sin, which is unchangeable, ha condlemnedl It on the Cross that th guilty sinner may live. The persistence of sin, the ur changeableness of God and his ur yielding hatred of sin are met by th culmination of Easter for, "Bly th obedience of one shall many be mad righteous" (Rlom. 5:19). The whole root of Saul's troubi was his attitude towards the word c God. Every man's destiny hinge upon what lie does with the Ivin Incarnate Word. The r'esurrectionl of Jesus Is th seal of his authority, the evidence c his power and our eternal salvatlo) depends upon01 what we do with hin: John 3:16; 18:36.
