Jesus Christ is removed from the presence of the Godless world

“Therefore Saul removed him from his presence, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people. And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.” 1 Samuel 18:13-14 Saul did not want David around him because David was esteemed among the people above Saul. Saul sent David into dangerous and life-threatening situations as a leader of combat troops. Even then, David behaved wisely among the people.

Today, the government of the beast does not want Christians interacting with their “democratic” society which welcomes the image of the beast to live and speak through them. The image is given life by the thing which forms what we think, feel, and do. Their society is synchronized to the mark of the beast and the followers of Christ do not conform. They intend to harden the human spirit to build a wall against the Spirit of Christ. To do that, they put Christians in situations of friction which constantly embroils them in battles to provoke attitudes and behaviors against the Spirit of Christ. They want to recycle the Spirit of Christ to perform ugly actions against God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. As Christians, we will be coming in and going out among their society and Jesus wants us to behave wisely in the Spirit of Holiness,

Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues. You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

Matthew 10:16-20

“Therefore, when Saul saw that he behaved very wisely, he was afraid of him.” 1 Samuel 18:15 When Jesus Christ was on this earth, the Jewish leaders did everything they could to trick, deceive, and conspire against Him, but Jesus is the power and wisdom of God, 1 Corinthians 1:24. Like Saul, the Jewish leaders became so fearful of Jesus that they conspired to kill Him. “But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.” 1 Samuel 18:16 Jesus is very much loved by the people He is among whom He teaches, heals, and cleanses, 

“Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples), He left Judea and departed again to Galilee.” 1 Samuel 18:1-2 Sometimes, the wisest thing we can do is to separate from those who incite conflict, debate, and strife of every type. Their only mission is to embattle the human spirit which mixes with the Spirit of Christ. They are attacking the Holy Spirit who keeps lawlessness from running rampant, and today that lawlessness is picking up steam around the world,

 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, which the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

2 Thessalonians 2:6-12

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
