Saul Syndrome
Saul was the first elected king who did something "foolish".
Of course the real problem was the people who desired a king and disregarded the warnings in 1 Samuel 8.
The same warnings concerning the dainties on the tables of rulers which were a "snare". Those warnings were given by all the prophets, Moses, and David but also by John the Baptist, Jesus concerning the "Fathers" of the earth, the "benefactors" who exercise authority, by Paul the Apostle who quoted David concerning the tables that should have been for your welfare but were a "snare", and of course, Peter and those "covetous practices" that "curse children" and makes men "merchandise", etc.
America is making the same error today because their appetite for the wages of unrighteousness. If the masses are unwilling to learn from history they will repeat the mistakes of it... if they do not repent.
Saul Syndrome
The Saul Syndrome is the "Corrupting" of your leaders with power by being slothful in the way of righteousness.
"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men." —Letter to Bishop Creighton[1] by Lord Acton[2]
From Presidents to pastors, from dictators to doctors if you give men power they will become corrupted by that power but you only give them power because you have already been corrupted with the sin of rejecting God as we see in 1 Samuel 8.
We choose to give power and the responsibility of choice to other men or women to do for us what we should be doing for ourselves.
We do it every day.
Despite the real meaning of Paul in Romans 13 and Samuel's warning in 1 Samuel 8, and the prohibition in Exodus 23:32 to making Contracts Covenants and Constitutions with men and their gods of the world we are constantly giving men power contractually and emotionally, which corrupts them. We give men the right to choose for us, to make laws for us, to rule over us, our minds and our bodies and our children and then we wonder why we are not free?
The Saul Syndrome is what happens to good men who are given more power than they can manage without doing foolishly.[3] What Saul had done which was foolish was forced the people to give him an offering to prepare his troops for an invasion by the Philistines.
He taxed the people rather than allow them to voluntarily support his troops. Saul would be plagued by the power he was given until anything that threatened that power threatened him. He would suffer from depression and eventually took his own life in despair.
The studies and stories of abuse of people by people who are given power over others whether real or imagined demonstrate the evil that is possible if too much power is given to men and women over others. From Cain and Nimrod to Saul or Caesar power has corrupted the leaders of the people but it also corrupts the people themselves.
God does not create nor appoint rulers over the people or their purse. He allows the people to do that to themselves. Those who reject God, often claiming to believe in Him while taking His name in vain, are workers of iniquity when the elect men to rule over their neighbor. The socialist mind set that allows people to take from their neighbor through the agency of the governments they create makes the word of God to not effect are the covetous practices that makes us merchandise and curses our children from generation to generation.
We do that because we are lovers of rewards and benefits of Benefactors who become the Fathers of the people. The rulers of the world are there by our choice which God allows so that they may punish the wicked. The wicked are those who create these rulers instead of striving to seek the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness with due diligence and perseverance.
"For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." (2 Timothy 3:2-5)
The Churches and synagogues of men are instituted by those who often want to imagine they are good god-fearing people. If they really loved God they would not be making covenants and contracts with people to covetously obtain benefits at the expense of their neighbor.
Freedom is for those who accept the responsibility of righteousness and seek to serve the God of creation according to the ways of righteousness. Neither freedom nor liberty is for those who are Slothful in the pursuit of Righteousness.

Even Jesus was tempted with power in Matthew[4]and in Luke [5]
"Oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart." until angry men become perfect savages and everyman a tyrant.
Why are things not as good as they were?
If we "enquire wisely concerning this".
The answer is the corrupting power of the Saul Syndrome when the "foolish" choose to oppress their neighbor through the covetous practices of legal charity.
They have no patience for the fervent charity of "The Way" of righteousness.
But men choose to "Bite one another" with an appetite for the dainties and benefits of rulers who exercise authority until they are all devoured like "merchandise".
See Ecclesiastes_7
King Saul
According to the Hebrew Bible, Saul was the first king of a united Kingdom of Israel and Judah. He would have lived circa 1082 BC–1010 BC, was anointed by the prophet Samuel and reigned from Gibeah.
Born: 1082 BC, Gibeah
Died: 1010 BC, Mount Gilboa, Israel
Parents: Kish
Children: Jonathan, Michal, Ish-bosheth, Merab, Abinadab, Malchishua
The election of a king or ruler who was both Commander in Chief of the Military and the chief executive officer of Israel was covered in 1 Samuel 8. God warned that he would take and take and take and rule over you and when you cried out God would not hear the people because they were rejecting God by this election.
This power granted by the people into the hands of a ruler or executive and legislative group also leads to corruption. This centralization of power leads to tyranny over others and eventual self-destruction through what we might call The Saul Syndrome.

- ↑ Destroyers of liberty
- "That the man who first ruined the Roman people twas he who first gave them treats and gratuities. But this mischief crept secretly and gradually in, and did not openly make it's appearance in Rome for a considerable time." Plutarch's Life of Coriolanus (c. 100 AD.) This would include Julius Caesar and eventually Augustus Caesar which is why Plutarch also reported, “The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” This was a major theme of the Bible:
- There were tables of welfare which were both snares and a traps as David and Paul stated and Peter warned would make us merchandise and curse children. Proverbs 23 told us not to not eat the "dainties" offered at those tables of Rulers and Paul says in 1 Corinthians 10 we cannot eat of those tables and the table of the Lord. We are not to consent to their covetous systems of One purse or Corban which makes the word of God to none effect.
- We know when the masses become accustomed to those benefits of legal charity which are the rewards of unrighteousness provided by benefactors who exercise authority and the Fathers of the earth through the covetous practices that makes men merchandise and curse children as a surety for debt.
