Here are the answers to your CRS questions: 1. State two Saul major punishment. King Saul faced several consequences for his disobedience to God. Two major punishments were: Rejection as King:* God rejected Saul as king and declared that his kingdom would not endure. This meant his dynasty would not continue, and another would be chosen to rule Israel. (1 Samuel 13:13-14, 1 Samuel 15:23) Loss of God's Spirit and Torment by an Evil Spirit:* The Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord tormented him. (1 Samuel 16:14) 2. Relate how Israel asked for a King to rule them. The Israelites asked for a king to rule them during the time of the prophet Samuel. Samuel was old, and his sons, whom he had appointed as judges, were corrupt, taking bribes and perverting justice. The elders of Israel gathered and came to Samuel at Ramah, demanding, "Now appoint a king to lead us, such as all the other nations have." Samuel was displeased by their request, as he saw it as a rejection of God's direct rule over them. He prayed to the Lord. God told Samuel to listen to the people, for they were not rejecting Samuel, but rejecting God as their king. God instructed Samuel to warn them solemnly about the rights and practices of a king who would rule over them, detailing how a king would take their sons for military service, their daughters for various tasks, and their best fields, vineyards, and flocks, and how they would eventually cry out because of the king they had chosen. Despite the warning, the people insisted, "No! We want a king over us. Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles." Samuel then relayed their insistence to the Lord, and the Lord commanded him to give them a king. (1 Samuel 8) 3. Enumerate between healthy and unhealthy friendship.
