A Tale of Three Kings

by Gene Edwards

What do I do when the kingdom I’m in is ruled by a spear-wielding king?...Just what does a person do in the middle of a spear-wielding contest?...

The answer is, you get stabbed to death.

...But what is the good in being speared?

You have your eyes on the wrong “King Saul.” As long as you look at your king, you will blame him and him alone for your present hell. But be careful, for God has his eyes fastened on another “King Saul”...One just as bad, or worse. God is looking at the “King Saul” in you...There is only one way to get rid of him. He must be annihilated...David the sheepherder would have grown up to become King Saul the Second, except that God cut away the “Saul” inside David’s heart. That operation, by the way, took years and was a brutalizing experience that almost killed the patient.
