1 Samuel 24:1–22, having Saul’s life in his very grip, David spares him, because Saul, for all his evil, still is the Lord’s anointed; 1 Corinthians 1:26–2:16, the Holy Spirit: the active ingredient in the word of God, the only thing that can overcome the resistance to faith of a natural person, that we might believe in Christ, and have life!
