Worshipping the Wildcats...might have led to Solomon's downfall!
In 1 Kings 9-11 we read about Solomon's excesses. The wives, horses, gold, precious metals, etc. The Lord warned Solomon about such activity, yet he continued. Check out Duet 17:14-20 for God's warning towards the kings of Israel. This warning was 1,000 years before Solomon! And what did Jesus say in Matt 6:24 (serving 2 masters).
Thankfully, God has preserved the scriptures through man to provide us a tool, a guide to healthy living. We only need follow it. As is noted in 1 Kings 9:4-5, obedience is key.
So was Solomon a failure?
