Lovy EliasGUEST
If you look through the history of prophets biblically, there is something called inquiring of the Lord.
Lovy EliasGUEST
Like an example, if we go to the book of Samuel.
Lovy EliasGUEST

Joshua SelmanHOST
Error in judgment and interpretation.
Joshua SelmanHOST
An example of this one, you find, um, in the life of Samuel and Eliab in 1 Samuel 16:6.
Joshua SelmanHOST
Now remember, Samuel was a notable prophet, the finest of his day, and yet the Bible says that when he was coming to anoint a king out of the sons of Jesse, the Bible says, "When it came to pass," and it came to pass, "when they were come, all of the sons aside from David," the Bible says, "when he looked on Eliab," even with the prophetic advantage, even with the depth and the height of his consecration, the Bible says, "he said, 'Surely the Lord's anointed is before Him.'" It was an error in judgment.
Joshua SelmanHOST
This was not from a fake prophet.
Joshua SelmanHOST

Tim DilenaHOST
New harp or new heart? I found this article revealing about the culture we live in.
Tim DilenaHOST
In a recent World Magazine, the article chronicles the lawsuit of Timothy Dee.
Tim DilenaHOST
This would be amusing if it wasn't true, not just about this family, but about our world.
Tim DilenaHOST
Someone once said, when you blame others, you give up your power to change.
Tim DilenaHOST
1 Samuel 19 occurred over 3,000 years ago, and this story is even more relevant and dangerous than that cable TV situation.
Tim DilenaHOST
It's a story of a king who blames others but never inspects his own soul.
speaker_3NARRATOR
When a judgment was about to descend upon the house of Eli, so terrible that both the ears of everyone that heareth it shall tingle, it was because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.
speaker_3NARRATOR
The prophet Jeremiah invokes the wrath of God upon the families that call not on thy name, and he is commissioned to declare in the name of the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel.
speaker_3NARRATOR
In such words as these, and Scripture is full of them, parents and heads of families have both solemn warning and gracious encouragement.
speaker_3NARRATOR
Blessings are promised and judgments are denounced according to the violation or observance of parental duties and family relationships.

speaker_3NARRATOR
This law was ordained for the human race at the very outset of man's life before the entrance of sin into the world, and it was thus invested with a high moral significance.
speaker_3NARRATOR
It contemplated not only earthly but spiritual blessings.
speaker_3NARRATOR
As expounded by prophets, apostles, and by our Lord himself, it is a type of the divine relationship subsisting between God and the church.

Paul LeBoutillierHOST
And the people of Israel who were present kept the Passover at that time and the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days.
Paul LeBoutillierHOST
Verse 18 is significant because it says this, "No Passover like it had been kept in Israel since the days of Samuel the prophet.
Paul LeBoutillierHOST
None of the kings of Israel had kept such a Passover as was kept by Josiah, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who were present and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Paul LeBoutillierHOST
In the 18th year of the reign of Josiah this Passover was kept." And it says after all this, so after all this...
Tim KochGUEST
So how do we address one another? And so, um, we are, again, the, the people of God are in the place...
Tim KochGUEST
Think of Samuel the prophet.
Tim KochGUEST
Right? The word of the Lord was rare, and none of Samuel's words fell to the ground.
Tim KochGUEST
Well, why is that? It's because he spoke God's word.
Tim KochGUEST
Um, and, uh, and the false prophets spoke words that they were not sent to speak, with the result that their words didn't come true, and so it falls into that.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
The case is there was nothing to tell, for these prophets were a company of musicians and poets, and Saul joined in the concert, and this was called prophesying.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
The account given of this affair in the book called Samuel is that Saul met a company of prophets, a whole company of them, coming down with a psaltery, a tabret, a pipe, and a harp, and that they prophesied, and that he prophesied with them.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
But it appears afterward that Saul prophesied badly.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
That is, he performed his part badly, for it is said that an evil spirit from God.

Steve BrownNARRATOR
The matters contained in that book would have the same authority they now have, had they been written by any other person, or had the work been anonymous, or had the author never been known.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
or the identical certainty of who was the author makes no part of our belief of the matters contained in the book.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
But it is quite otherwise with respect to the books ascribed to Moses, to Joshua, to Samuel, etc.
Steve BrownNARRATOR
Those are books of testimony, and they testify of things naturally incredible, and therefore the whole of our belief as to the authenticity of those books rests, in the first place, upon the certainty that they were written by Moses, Joshua, and Samuel.
annm2705HOST
About being changed, I do want to talk about that because this is something good because a lot of that is bad, but let's talk about something good for a minute.
annm2705HOST
All the way back in the Old Testament, and I forgot who this was talking about, but it's in 1 Samuel 10, verse 6.
annm2705HOST
And this is Samuel and Saul having a conversation.
annm2705HOST
Now Samuel was anointed, and he anointed Saul.
annm2705HOST
Saul was the first king of Israel.
annm2705HOST
And so this is what Samuel told Saul.
annm2705HOST
The spirit of the Lord, YHWH, will come powerfully upon you and you will prophesy with them and you will be changed into a different person.
annm2705HOST
That's what happens when we receive the Holy Spirit.
