When God promises to make a mere servant, Jeroboam, into the king of Israel, what does He expect from him in return?
Solomon Turns His Heart Against God (1 Kings 11:1-43)

Elijah and the Prophets of Baal (1 Kings 16-18)
God Punishes Jeroboam (1 Kings 12:1-33, 14:1-18)
Solomon turns his heart against God (1 Kings 11:1 - 43)
Solomon's prayer in the house for God (1 Kings 8:1-9:9)

Jesus died as a righteous man in the place of sinners (Luke 22: 47–53, 23: 26–49)
Jesus was righteous to the very end. He died as a righteous man in the place of the unrighteous, bearing God’s wrath against sin. God accepted Christ’s perfect sacrifice for sin as sufficient and restored peace between God and man. Now any sinner who trusts in the sinless Savior can be clothed with His righteousness and enter God’s holy presence.
The Son of Man anticipates His death (Luke 22: 7–20, 39–46)
Each year Jesus had watched the Passover lamb be slaughtered; the Passover lamb was pointing to Him. He also taught His disciples that He was the final Passover lamb. Now, the time had come for him to be the final Passover lamb. Going to the cross is a very hard mission for Jesus, will He stay committed to His Father’s work and stayed true to His mission?
