This video discusses how David avoided violence by following God's words instead of the desires of his sinful, violent followers. It serves as a reminder that God's word is powerful and can awaken the conscience of even the most hardened of people.

00:00:00 In this chapter, Saul is returning from following the Philistines and is told that David is in the wilderness. Saul takes 3,000 chosen men with him and goes to find David and his men. The men of David tell Saul that they will hand David over to him if he enters the cave. David escapes and Saul finds out that David had cut off a corner of Saul's robe. Saul convinces his men not to attack David, and David escapes again. Saul sees victory over the Philistines and concludes that David knows victory only because he has defeated his enemies before.
00:05:00 In this Bible study, Pastor Daniel Batarseh discusses Saul's trial and subsequent success. He reminds us that even when sinners seem to prosper, God is still fair and slow to punish them. Saul's experience reminds us that even in our failures, we can be thankful for God's mercy.
00:10:00 This 1-paragraph summary of 1 Samuel 24 describes how a believer should remain vigilant in times of peace and trouble, always being prepared for the next attack from the enemy.
00:15:00 In this video, Pastor Daniel Batarseh discusses 1 Samuel 24, which tells the story of Saul, who is chasing David, and how David manages to elude him. Saul eventually comes close to David, and David is able to escape by hearing about Saul's approach and hiding in a cave. This time, Saul and David are going to be in the same room, and David is about to face a new kind of temptation.
00:20:00 The video discusses how some followers of Jesus Christ misinterpret God's providence, and how David's men were encouraging David to kill his enemy without justification. Ultimately, this is not right, and we must always ask God for guidance before making decisions.
00:25:00 The video discusses how to interpret Scripture, specifically in regards to the question of whether it was god's will for David to become king. It points out that while it was god's will, it was also sin, and that in order to have a conscience that is at ease, one must have a balanced understanding of Scripture. This video provides an example of how someone may try to justify their immoral behavior by looking for specific passages in the Bible that justify it. The young man in the example attempted to do this by looking at Old Testament passages that justified his actions, but when he tried to do this with New Testament passages, he found that they were also silent about the specifics of his behavior. In the end, this led him to come to terms with his sin and seek forgiveness from God.
00:30:00 Pastor Batarseh explains that Satan knows which people have more influence in people's lives and will attempt to deceive them with false peace offerings. He discusses the example of Jesus' closest friend Peter, who was tempted by Satan to deny Jesus' request to get behind him during his crucifixion. Despite Satan's temptations, Jesus was able to defeat him with Scripture. Therefore, no matter who suggests something contrary to God's word, Scripture always wins.
00:35:00 Pastor Daniel Batarseh discusses the temptations faced by David, including the temptation to take a shortcut in life by marrying someone who is not saved. He encourages believers to resist temptation and follow God's instructions.
00:40:00 This video explores the idea that a sensitive conscience is a great thing, and that it is a restraint put in by God in order to help us live righteous lives. It also discusses the example of David, who did not take vengeance against Saul even though he had the opportunity to do so.
00:45:00 In this Bible study, Pastor Daniel Batarseh discusses how humans have a judicial system and how people can damage their conscience by silencing it. He also discusses how the enemy wants to silence people's consciences in order to allow sin to become more rampant.
00:50:00 The video discusses how a person's conscience can become seared, and how this can lead to them doing sinful things without realizing it. The author suggests that seeking to learn how to listen to and trust one's conscience is key to avoiding sinful behavior.
00:55:00 In this video, Pastor Daniel Batarseh discusses how the Lord's anointed, David, avoided violence by following God's words instead of obeying the desires of his sinful, violent followers.
