Jonathan was gently asking his father, King Saul, what is David's sin that he should be put to death. Nothing. Earlier the scriptures say and the Lord left him (Saul). However, Saul becomes jealous of highly favored David. His son Jonathan acts as a mediator between his father and David, reminding him of David defeating the Philistines, and his innocence and duties he has preformed for the king. And Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan. Saul swore, As the Lord lives, he shall not be put to death. And Jonathan called, David and Jonathan reported to him all these things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before. Here I was rejoicing because Christ is my mediator on my behalf. I choose sin but Jesus Christ has purchased my soul for eternal salvation and I can enter my LORD's presence! Christ has reconciled the judgement I deserve and I come unashamed, washed clean before my King.
Romans 5:8 and 9
but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.
