True enough.

But when God's "appearance" is just that "still, small Voice," we all are expert at ignoring and rationalizing it away. Indeed, Peter learned from the cock's crow that even when warned by Jesus Himself ahead-of-time, he still was weak.

Neither Solomon nor Peter had the benefit then of the indwelling Holy Spirit. We have that advantage over them.

It was not a "still small voice".

God literally showed up and spoke to him as He did twice before.

Ignoring that takes a massive amount of gall.

Ignoring a priest or prophet, one thing. Ignoring God? Whole other level.

We Have the Advantage-—
Yes!
To trample serpents.
Heal the sick and raise the dead may be above our Pay Grade.
But when it comes to women...
