The Three Anointings of David

This Discourse first goes through the significance of “anointings” in the scriptures. It also goes into the background of the greatest kings that Israel has ever known: King David. Just as Jesus is the antitype of King David, King Saul is a type of Satan. This discourse will take a closer look into Saul’s background as well as David’s, comparing their experiences with those of Jesus and Lucifer. Just as Saul was the King whom the people chose and who had lost the anointing and favor of God, so Satan was chosen by man when chose to obey him rather than God. Just as Jesus the “Beloved” of God will take possession of his inheritance “the world” in God’s due time, we see this typified by David’s three anointings.
