1 | Spirit of Samuel? | Rev 2:15 | retxar | 11413 | ||
Nolan has given a good, thorough answer here. Let me share a few additional thoughts on why I think view #2 (demon impersonation) is correct. 1 Sam 28:6 Saul had already inquired of the LORD, and the LORD did not answer. If God refused to answer thru the Holy Spirit, I don’t think He would answer thru demonic means. 1Sam 28:19. I feel the demon actually gives away its identity when it says “tomorrow you will be with me.” If Saul hooked up the next day with the one speaking, I am sure it was a demon, not Samuel. Deu_13:1-2 says all predictions that come to pass are not always from God. So the fact that the prophecy in 1Sa 28:19 came true, does not prove it was from God. Saul actually died by committing suicide (1Sa 31:4). The prediction of Saul’s death here could have been a seed planted by satan to convince Saul to kill himself. |

2 | Spirit of Samuel? | Rev 2:15 | defender | 46496 | ||
The fact that this may have been of demons makes sense to me given the fact that a witch called upon him. and the reference is that this "spirit"looked like an old man wearing a robe - which is pretty non-descript. Saul may have seen what he wanted to see in this spirit - that is Samuel, (or a demon appearing as Samuel) | ||||||
