Session – 113

The First Book Of Samuel

In Session 112, I learned, while in Catholic school, that God is a man who does not lie. 75 years later, and according to 1 Sam 16: 1- 2, I find that wasn’t true!

Chapter 17

And the Truth Shall Set You Free

Last week I wrote in Session 112, ‘The First Book of Samuel is nothing short of an atheist paradise!’ This week I write, ‘The Truth Shall Set You Free!’

First and foremost: There is zero evidence that David, King David, or his family tree ever existed! EVER! The Bible is nothing more than a feel-good mystical tour of wishful thinking (like the faith-based movies). All! Including: the LORD thy God came into existence once man put pen to paper! Before that, it was male dominance of 100s of gods made of stone and wood, who gave one a sense of what one’s knowledge could not grasp! It matters not if it was millions of years ago or ten days ago; Nothing has changed! The light has blinded humanity, and there is no cure or insight!

Note the following mishaps, from First Samuel Chapter 17:

And David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him greatly; and he became his armourbearer. And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; for he hath found favour in my sight (1Sam. 16: 21-22).

And when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said unto Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this youth; etc; (1 Sam. 17: 55).

And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, thou young man? And David answered, I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Beth-lehemite (1Sam. 17:58).

And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth (1Sam. 17:49).

Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith (1Sam. 17:51).

And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem (1 Sam. 17:54).

And David returned from the Slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in hand (1 Sam. 17:57).
