1 Samuel 24:2–23 (NEG79)

2 Lorsque Saül fut revenu de la poursuite des Philistins, on vint lui dire: Voici, David est dans le désert d'En-Guédi.

What does 1 Samuel 24 reveal about what God the Son does in my place and on my behalf?

Jesus Christ is the King who always allowed biblical principles rather than circumstances to govern his actions. When he was given the chance for glory without suffering, he remained faithful to God. He did not fall into the trap of the devil. Because he lived the perfect life, he was able to give his life as a ransom for sinners. In doing so, God can show mercy to me, because the penalty of my sin has been paid by his Son Jesus.
