Jesus had the stamina of a perfect man to endure the pain an abuse of world’s sin and rebellion. He could see beyond the insults and injustice. His live for us requires a sacrifice and a self denial that requires His life to paid for our wrongs. The examples of Saul and David are those of imperfect men. Saul’s depravity cemented his will to remain in rebellion and denial. David’s sin violated his conscience at times but we are t told all the details of what he was thinking. The Bible understands how bad a rebellious person can get but it shows the invitation we have to surrender to a loving God. We won’t ‘win’ every argument or battle but hopefully we can keep moving toward His invitation of forgiveness and peace.
