Do you know why God once allowed Samuel, who had already died, to actually be summoned up by a witch?
This is not just an ordinary, eerie story, but a judgment in the Bible so chilling it sends a shiver down your spine.
Because Samuel was never an ordinary man. He was one of the most weighty prophets in Israel. From childhood, he heard the voice of God. He spent his whole life proclaiming God's Word and almost none of it ever fell to the ground.
He anointed Saul and he also anointed David. In that generation, he was almost the very mouthpiece of God's will.
But the most unsettling part is not who Samuel was while he was alive. It is that after his death, he appeared again in the night at Endor.
By then, Saul was already nearing his end. The Philistine army was closing in and fear swallowed him like a rising tide. He sought an answer from God, but God no longer responded. No dreams, no prophet, no direction at all.
