FAMILY THEME: JEALOUSY

JEALOUSY: THE DANGER ZONE

I Samuel 18:1-21;   19:1-18

Saul was still Israel's king, but he was far from God, as

illustrated in his attitude toward David.

1.  Jealousy Fuels Fear

     (I Samuel 18:1-9)

     Saul's jealousy caused him to have an irrational

     fear of David - the young man who had never

     mistreated or disrespected the King.

 
2.  Jealousy Gives Birth to Hateful Action

     (I Samuel 18:10-21) 

     Saul's jealousy led him to plot against David in

     an effort to kill him.

 
3.  Jealousy is No Match for Love

     (I Samuel 19:1-18)

     Those who loved David did what they could to

     help him escape Saul's assaults.
