Verses in Question■ The Spirit of the Lord helped Samson here indeed! But I think the Philistine's Delilah has more strength than a Lion! And where was the Spirit when Delilah came to cuddle Samson?
Wait? Where did the anger come from? Did the spirit of the Lord inspire the killing?
■ Samson still had many failings being tempted by a women and ended up committing suicide with his enemies according to the Biblical Narrations! I still can't explain why God helped Samson marry a Philistine wife that won't be loyal to him! And why kill people to satisfy someone's useless riddle? O God! So why do I need this Spirit to understand the Bible? The Spirit of the Lord can still enter someone today and that person will still kill others like Samson!

To understand the story of Samson, one must comprehend the significance of the Nazarite vow he was born into. Samson, like every other Israelite, was required by Law to be holy in his dealings, even though he was vowed to God. That the Spirit of the Lord was on him — bestowing superhuman powers on him it seems — did not indicate that his every action was then sanctioned by God.

1. The Lord said to Moses,
2 “Tell the Israelites this: If there are people, men or women, who want to make a vow dedicating themselves to the Lord as Nazirites for a time, this is what they must do:
3 They must stay away from wine or other strong drink. They must not drink vinegar that is made from wine or from other strong drink. They must not drink grape juice or eat grapes or raisins.
4 During that special time of dedication, they must not eat anything that comes from grapes. They must not even eat the seeds or the skins from grapes.
5 “The whole time of their Nazirite vow they must not cut their hair. They must be holy until this time of special dedication to the Lord is ended. They must let their hair grow long.
6 “If you have taken the Nazirite vow, you must not go near someone who is dying during that special time of dedication. You have given yourself fully to the Lord,
7 so you must not let yourself become unclean like this—even for your own father or mother, brother or sister when they die. This is because you have the hair that you dedicated to God on your head!
8 It is holy because you have given yourself fully to the Lord for the full time of that dedication - Numbers 6 vs 1 - 8

Equally important was what God said He would use Samson for.

1. Again the people started doing what the Lord said was wrong. So the Lord allowed the Philistines to rule over them for 40 years.
2 There was a man named Manoah from the city of Zorah. He was from the tribe of Dan. Manoah had a wife, but she was not able to have any children.
3 The angel of the Lord appeared to Manoah’s wife and said, “You have not been able to have children. But you will become pregnant and have a son.
4 Don’t drink any wine or any other strong drink. Don’t eat any food that is unclean,
5 because you are pregnant, and you will have a son. He will be dedicated to God in a special way. He will be a Nazirite. So you must never cut his hair. He will be God’s special person from before he is born. He will save the Israelites from the power of the Philistines.”
6 Then the woman went to her husband and told him what had happened. She said, “A man of God came to me. He looked like the angel of God. He frightened me. I didn’t ask him where he was from, and he didn’t tell me his name.
7 But he said to me, ‘You are pregnant and will have a son. Don’t drink any wine or other strong drink. Don’t eat any food that is unclean, because the boy will be dedicated to God in a special way. The boy will be God’s special person from before he is born until the day he dies.’”
8 Then Manoah prayed to the Lord. He said, “Lord, I beg you to send the man of God to us again. We want him to teach us what we should do for the boy who will soon be born.” - Judges 13 vs 1 - 8

I think these two passages provide much of the answers you seek to the reason why the Spirit of the Lord which bestowed superpowers on Samson remained with him even though he lived what may be considered a sinful life.

AntiChristian:
■I wonder who creates theories for these Christians. Mere theories without any verse from their God but Paul! Spirit of God is Gentle but enter Samson and he killed Lion with hands and killed thirty people!
That's the spirit of your God! If Boko Haram were to claim the spirit of their God entered them to kill people would you equate them to your Samson? The truth is that you Christians are mostly prejudiced liars for Christ! The Spirit that can't enter Samson to prevent him from being deceived by Delilah! The Spirit that can't stop him from committing Suicide! The Spirit that can only encourage killings!

Not trying to hold brief for the Christians and their special interpretations but the taking of Nazarite vows is restricted to those of the Old Law of Moses. It has nothing to do with Jesus Christ, God's New Law in the Kingdom of God. Even the Holy Spirit of the Old Law of Moses is different and separate from the Holy Spirit of the New Covenant, Jesus Christ. So, the Spirit that descended from God on Samson, the Nazarite, should not in any way be confused with the same Spirit from God that Jesus Christ promised to His followers. None of the Prophets of Old could boast of having the same Spirit as Samson did— they didn't have superpowers like he did—, yet the Spirit of God was also with them all. God is the one who decides these things — what Spirit to give to whom and for what purpose.

The Nazarites were especially vowed to Him separate from the mandate of the Law itself.

AntiChristian:
■ You are right. But he was exactly like Boko Haram but with Yahweh as his Lord!

Samson was in no way like Boko Haram at all because the Constitution in the land of Israel at the time sanctioned the killing of enemies of Israel — many of those whom Samson is recorded to have killed. Of course, murder is condemned by the Law of Moses and so he was not absolved of any of the homicides he may have committed. Boko Haram is instead a group of Nigerians living in the country of Nigeria and hence subject to the Constitutional Law in Nigeria are simply murderers/serial killers living in Nigeria who pretend their killings are sanctioned by a foreign idea and deity.

AntiChristian:
■ Of what use is the holy spirit empowering him when he wanted to kill lion and thirty people for betting and stealing their clothes!

Again, I am not trying to hold brief for any of the religious narratives offered so far, but the responsibility lay with Samson as far as what he did with the strength that was given to him. That is what the story of Samson makes clear to anyone reading it without bias, at least.

God promised to use Samson, and the Spirit of God which God placed on him was God keeping His part of the agreement. The Nazarite agreement is detailed in Numbers 6 for all who wish to understand the agreement. And the agreement states that so long as he had the "holy" mane, he was of use to God.

As usual I know u will abandon the debate once U trapped.
U come here with your shallow knowledge of the scriptures but when your brain is formatted, U run away.

Anyway I will summarise.

Samson was supposed to live as a Nazarite. These are people dedicated to God and are under sacred vows. There are strict commandments Nazarites are expected to adhere to so long as they under the vow. If they unintentionally break any of the commandments, Nazarites are expected to undergo purification b4 they can continue their sacred commitment unto God.

In the case of Samson, God promised to make him a leader in Israel who will deliver his people from the hands of the philistine as a fulfilment of his Nazarite covenant. Samson would be able to achieve this by virtue of the spirit of God stirring him to become a mighty man.

God fulfilled his own part of the covenant because he's always faithful even when we are unfaithful. Samson indeed was a mighty man.

2 Timothy 2.13
if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.

But did Samson fulfil his own end of the bargain? Samson ignored the commandments attached to being a Nazarite. For example, nazarites are not to come in contact with dead people and if it happens they are suppose to undergo purification.
Samson killed with reckless abandon, smashing skulls and bones, and leaving multiple dead people in his trail.
Samson was confident he would retain his power so long as the specific ordinance that established his vow with God remain intact- his hair must not be touched. As far as the rest of the Nazarites requirements are concerned - Samson considered them inconsequential.

Samson misused the manifestation of the spirit of Lord in him, the same way Jesus will deny those who have misused the grace of the spirit at work in them on judgement day.

Samson lived a careless life, for man of God to live such careless life...it was only a matter of time he ends up in the belly of the devil.

The holy spirit was misused

What you're saying is that Samson misused the spirit of the Lord. He misused the third part of your God! Am I getting you clearly?
So the Holy Spirit was just in Samson silently and Samson was being empowered by it giving him strength but not accountable for what the Strength/Power it gave?

Your knowledge of the times and season and of biblical exegesis is very poor. Let me answer you.

Every nation needs a paramount ruler. The ruler directs the affairs of the nation, instructs the people, settles dispute, and is usually the commander in charge of the nation's armed forces.

If a nation goes for the offensive or accepts conditions of peace when war is waged against it would usually depend on this paramount ruler. In times past and even now, some call them King. When Israel became a nation, they didn't have one. God is their paramount king, so to speak.

But God is not physically on earth, so he sends his representatives. They were called Judges. One of his representatives was a Nazirite. A special Nazirite at that because he was so from birth. In fact, Samson was an involuntary Nazirite because he didn't choose to be one. God chose him and set him apart. The spirit of God was mightily upon him right from the time an angel announced his birth.

As God's representative, he was supposed to deliver the Israelite from the hands of the Philistines. Like any ruler at loggerheads with rival nation, every occasion he had with the Philistine was supposed to create an opportunity to defeat them - even his desire to court different Philistine women was God at work, creating a good opportunity for Samson to defeat them and liberate the Philistines.

I read your post again and concluded that you're asking so many irrelevant questions.

You said

> But I think the Philistine's Delilah has more strength than a Lion!

Bad syllogism. Samson killed a Lion and Delilah killed Samson then she has more strength than him. Where is your reasoning? Don't you know the difference between deceit and murder? She deceived him. She didn't kill him. He is human after all, with his own inclinations.

You also said

> And where was the Spirit when Delilah came to cuddle Samson?

God's spirit is still with him. God's spirit left him when his hair was cut. In fact, there are times when God's spirit in his servant conceal information from them. God's spirit is not there to instruct Samson on whom to date, what information to share with strangers, what food to eat, what to tell his parents and more. God's spirit is primarily for empowerment - to strengthen him like no other, since warfare are primarily a matter of STRENGTH.

You said

> Wait? Where did the anger come from? Did the spirit of the Lord inspire the killing?

Yes, God's spirit inspired the killings. All other submissions are inconsequential.

"Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
