David was 13 years old when he became King of Israel and he also was a prophet.
Jeremiah was young.
Jesus was super young when He taught the elders and men of the synagogue.
I thank God for my age, and the Lord Jesus Christ blessing me to be a man after His will and heart.
Scripture does not say that David was 13 years old when he became King of Israel.
2 Samuel 5:4 KJV
(4) David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
Very encouraging.
However, it would be greatly appreciated if you would stop adding to God's word (scripture).
You, my friend, are not a David. Your ego is in control of your better judgment. You're not a modern day prophet. Perhaps you ought to try and convince another forum that you are indeed, a prophet? Although, I don't believe you'll be able to fool anybody into following you?
Are you ok.?? Do you have comprehension problems.!
2 Samuel 5:3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David king over Israel.
COG, you think too highly of yourself.
Hey, Tam, he thinks he proved that David was 13 with that verse he used?
Amen!
Sometimes.
Sometimes.
But not with this .....
2 Samuel 5:4 KJV
(4) David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
1 Chronicles 29:26-27 KJV
(26) Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
(27) And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.
There is no place in scripture that says David was 13 years old when he became king.
If you want to teach scripture, then teach what scripture actually says. and stop adding to it.
Tam proved you wrong, COG. At least you could thank her?
I don't think nothing of myself,
Galatians 6:3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
I apologize I read the number wrong, do accept my apology.
Do you THINK you're a member of The Body of Christ?
Those of us whom have read all of scripture can straighten him out.
He's young. And he is on fire for the Lord. Give him some slack.
But make sure to correct him when needed, so he can keep preaching scripture by learning not to add to it.
What scripture says is sufficient and does not need addition.
I agree with you. Some will never come to Spiritual discernment and wisdom. However, while there's life, there's hope.
I respect him for admitting when he was wrong. Some can't do that.
No apology needed.
I encourage you to keep speaking of scripture, but just try not to add to it as if there is some sort of blank in scripture that needs to be filled in by assumptions.
In time your points will be more precise when you weed out the assumptions and just stick to scripture.
We shouldn't assume and try to come up with an additional story just to appease someone's question.
Scripture alone is good enough for you and me, and good enough for everyone else.
Don't alter it.
Well said, Tam.
