Jeroboam

In the book of 1 Kings, chapter 13, we meet a man whom we had previous met: Jeroboam.  He ruled over the rest of Israel that was not under King Solomon's son.

In this chapter, a man of God came to the altar where Jeroboam had been standing by.  The man of God cried out and offered a prophecy, that the altar would be torn down and poured out into ashes.

Then, as Jeroboam told his guards to seize him, Jeroboam's hand dried up and the altar turned to ash, just as the man of God had said.

Jeroboam apologized and offered a meal to the man.  But the man refused, for it was against the will of God.

The man left, and was soon met by an old prophet.  By false means, the prophet offered a meal to the man and he accepted.  God was not pleased by this.  As the man went away, he was attacked and killed by a lion.
