God is so good that he won’t let us get away with anything bad, but he will punish you for every single bad thing you do against his will. [Spirituality & Religion]

When king David slept with another Mans wife, God killed his son! Even though God loved David! There is a consequence for bad behaviors! God is a consuming fire!

Who is David in the bible? Is he a prophet or just a man?

A king of Israel in the Old Testament. He loved God and God loved him!

@TheBlackPowerRanger All prophets are just men..

David was both a prophet and a King..
@Carazaa @Adstar if a prophet is a man that is an example and practices the way of God and teaches others the way, how would such a man commit adultery? That's a grave sin, no? Doesn't that conflict with the criteria for being a prophet in Christianity? 🤔
That the man is honest, righteous, is purified at heart from pure evil, and that if they speak of a prophecy or prediction that it will come to pass?

@TheBlackPowerRanger Hidden a prophet is simply a man who is given a message from God to give to others.. David gave a number of prophecies in the paslms book of the Bible..

Being a prophet does not make one perfect sinless being..

Being a preacher does not make one a perfect sinless being..

If a man gives the message of God that it is wrong to steal and goes out and is tempted and steals something does that make the message that stealing is sin wrong?? Nope.

A drug addict can honestly declare drugs are bad and with passion advise people to avoid doing drugs.. But that drug addicts addiction will drag that person back into doing the drugs that they hate again and again sometimes unto death..

Being a Prophet is all about the accuracy of the message one receives from God and transfers to other human beings..

God works through faulty men.. Moses was a murderer.. David was guilty of adultery and all Christians today have their own faults / issues..

@TheBlackPowerRanger He is just a man but God loved him because he loved God! He was Israel’s King like I said! The Bible tells the truth about mans sin! We all sin! But We have to realize God hates sin and will punish it in this life but not in the next if we love Jesus!

[b]Acts 2: KJV[/b]
29 "Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch [b]David[/b], that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. {30} Therefore [b]being a prophet[/b], and knowing that God had sworn with an oath [b]to him[/b], that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;"
