Sad to see a man anointed by God and blessed by God, talked to by God twice specifically, warned by God about this matter ended up the way he did. this tells me that christians need to understand why we must be consecrated totally to God. All that Solomon did is compromised by his actions and will lead others to believe that we cannot live all our days in the care of God. Yet i do not live by this betrayal of Solomon because 1 John 4 v 4 states that greater is he that is with in us than he that is in the world. I know that i can live above sin because of what Christ have done and through the indwelling spirit. i know that what Jesus Christ have done is too much to set aside for something that will tarnish my testimony and hurt my God. I know that others have made these comments but when i see that Daniel and Joseph did not have what i have, i am empowered that to be faithful to God, and desire to hear when i stand before Him well done thou good and faithful servant. The remainder of this verse is not important to me because i want to please God. does this mean that i will never sin or have never sin, No, but the word of God says that let not fornication be once mention about us. We have the power to live above sin.
