Want this question answered?
Saul, though a good king to start, eventually turned away from God, and rejected his word(1 Samuel 15:24-28)
He failed in 1 Samuel Chapter 15 to completely slaughter and annihilate the Amalekites as God had ordered him. Therefore, God removed the kingship from King Saul.
They wanted a more visible leader, King Saul.
Samuel ws called when he was a child by God, he is remembered mainly for Anointing king Saul as king, he also told Saul god rejected him as a king. Samuel anointed David as the second king of Israel.
Because Saul was not completely obedient to God. In the battle against Amalek, which God had commanded explicitly, Saul didn't finish the job (1 Samuel ch.15; and see also Exodus ch.17 and Deuteronomy 25:17-19).
David was anointed as king by Samuel at God's command, after Saul was found to be not completely obedient to the command of God (1 Samuel ch.15-16). This was not long after the Israelites had first requested to begin a monarchy (after the era of the Judges).
Saul apparently was afraid of the people When asked why he had not obeyed Jehovah's voice (or as some prefer YAHWEH) (God) , Saul disclaimed guilt and shifted the blame onto the people. Only after Samuel emphasized the serious nature of the sin and said that, because of it, Jehovah (God) was rejecting him as king did Saul acknowledge that his error was the result of his fearing the people According to First Samuel 15:26, Saul's punishment for not killing all the Amalekites was the loss of Samuel's support and more importantly, God would take the kingdom of Israel from him and give it to another
Saul of the Old Testament did not. Saul (Paul) of the New Testament did not see God but he heard the voice of Jesus while on the road to Damascus.
No it is not likely as Saul backslides from God.
No i think it was David not Saul.
He did not!
Though rejected by God as king over Israel, Saul appeared to be trying to gain HIS good graces. It seemed he wound up in soome sort of religious fervor, much as one sees in some charismatic churchs today.
