Solomon took many stange wives (700). Because he disobeyed the LORD, his wives got him in trouble.
1 Kings 11:1-13
1. But King Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharoah, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians and Hittites.
4. For it came to pass, that when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
5. For Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the godess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abmomination of the Amonites.
7. Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
Print: Solomon and his women meet the Queen of Sheba, Circa 1890
Molech. the Ammonite/Canaanite fire god was an idol of molten metal. The inside was hollowed out and fire burned beneath until the idol was red hot. At this point, they would throw their babies, one by one, unto the red hot arms and they were burned alive. Loud musical instruments were played to try to drown out the screams of the burning babies. Jews even fell into this abominable practice of infanticide..
Today, aborted babies are usually already dead when they are thrown into incinerators. Their unheard screams are not heard in the woman's womb as they are torn apart and sucked out, burned in the womb with chemicals. In the case of late term abortions, they are birthed up to the head and a sharp, surgical instrument is plunged in the back of the neck. Then they are are burned in the incinerators. ,
Ps 106:34-38 KJV
34. The did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them:
35. But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
36. And they served their idols, which were a snare to them.
37. Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils.
38. And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.
NO OTHER GODS!

Dedication of Solomon's Temple to the LORD God in Jerusalem vs. Woship of a Hindu godess in Nepal.
Why were there over 300,000 animals beheaded in the fenced in field in Nepal unto the one Hindu godess Gadhimai in 2014? See more at TODAY PAGE
Could it be that these devils want to outdo the number of animals that were sacrificed by Solomon when he dedicated the Temple he built to the LORD in Jerusalem?
In 832 BC, 1 Kings 8:62-65 we learn that Solomon approved the sacrifice 22,000 oxen, 120,000 sheep as they celebrated with a Feast/Festival of Dedication of the Temple in Jerusalem that lasted 14 days.
The boy David, slays and beheads Goliath vs. ISIS/ISIL beheading of Christians & others.
David slays and beheads Goliath in 1025 BC. Philistines worshiped the god Dagon, father of Baal.
1 Samuel 17:50, 51. So David prevailed over the Philistine (Goliath) with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine and slew him. 51. Therefore David ran and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out...and cut off his head...
Beginning in 2014, a number of people from various countries were beheaded by ISIS or ISIL, a radical islamist group operating in Iraq and Syria. See in Wikipedia.

Chemosh (subduer), the national deity (god) of the Moabites. Numbers 21:29, Jeremiah 28:7, 13, 46. In Judges 11:24 he also appears as the god of the Ammonites that Solomon introduced. Josiah aboloished the worship of Chemosh at Jerusalem. 1 Kings 11:7, 2 Kings 23:13. Also identified with Baal-Peor, Baalzebub, Mars and Saturn. Smith, W. Smith's Bible Dictionary. Thomas Nelson: Nashville.
The Ammonites and Moabites descended from Lot's two daughters who had an incestuous relation with their father. Their children became the people of Ammon and Moab.
Because these nations were descendants of Lot, God protected them initially; Moses told Joshua not to destroy them. Deut. 2:9, 19.
The Ammonites started to worship Molech and the Moabites started worshipping Chemosh. These gods were very similar and required infant sacrifice and the giving over of children to prostitution which was forbidden by God. (Leviticus 20:5) and denounced later by the prophets (Isaiah 15:1--16:3, Jeremiah 48:1--49:6)
Moab hired Balaam to curse Israel, but God turned the curse into a blessing. (Numbers 22:1--24:25)
Ammon and Moab were exluded from the assembly and Israel was forbidden to make peace with them. (Deuteronomy 23:1-8)
The Ammonites and Moabites continued to plague Israel with their false gods. Solomon even built temples to Molech and Chemosh. (1 KIngs 11:1-8)
King Ahaz and King Manasseh of Judah even sacrificed children to Molech (2 Kings 16:2, 3, 21:6)
Eventually King Josiah rid Israel of all foreign gods. (2 Chronicles 34:7, 2 Kings 23:10)

Barnabas called the god Jupiter and Paul called the god Mercurius.
At Lystra Paul was used by God to bring healing to a man who was impotent (lame) in his feet and had never walked, perceiving that he had faith to be healed. He commanded the man to stand and walk and the man did.
The people saw what happened and said that the gods (Theos) are come down as men among us in the likeness of men.
They named Barnabas, Jupiter and Paul Mercury.
Jupiter was the national god of the Greeks and corresponds to the Roman god Zeus. Mercurius or Hermes who the Romans called Mercury.

1 Samuel 28:7- 21
7. Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and esquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman, that hath a familiar spirit at Endor.
8. And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar spirit, and bring me him up, whom I shall name unto thee.
9. And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that hath familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life to cause me to die?
10. And Saul sware to her by the LORD, saying, as the LORD liveth, there shall be no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
11. Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
12. When the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul saying, Why hast thou deceived me? For thou art Saul.
13. And the king said unto her. Be not afraid, what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods (elohiym) ascending out of the earth.
14. And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and he bowed himself.
15. And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God hast departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do.
16. 16 Then said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?
17 And the LORD hath done to him, as he spake by me: for the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David:
18 Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD, nor executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing unto thee this day.
19 Moreover the LORD will also deliver Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and to morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the LORD also shall deliver the host of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.
20 Then Saul fell straightway all along on the earth, and was sore afraid , because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
21 And the woman came unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled , and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto me.

King Nebuchadnezzar, his tall idol, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego and the
fiery furnace.
Daniel 3:1-30 1 Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. 2 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up . 3 Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up ; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up . 4 Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded , O people, nations, and languages, 5 That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp * , sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up : 6 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. 7 Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp * , sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up . 8 Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near , and accused * the Jews. 9 They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever. 10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp * , sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer * , and all kinds of musick, shall fall down and worship the golden image: 11 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth , that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. 12 There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up . 13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king. 14 Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? 15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp * , sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made ; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands? 16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. 17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. 18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up . 19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake , and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated . 20 And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. 21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen * , and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. 22 Therefore * because the king's commandment was urgent , and the furnace exceeding hot , the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. 23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. 24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied , and rose up in haste , and spake , and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. 25 He answered and said , Lo, I see four men loose , walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. 26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake , and said , Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth , and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire. 27 And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together , saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power , nor was an hair of their head singed , neither were their coats changed , nor the smell of fire had passed on them. 28 Then Nebuchadnezzar spake , and said , Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. 29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss * against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. 30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.
