Rejecting God's Choice Is Rejecting God

Exod. 16:8 "...for the Lord hears your *murmurings (grumblings) which you make against Him. And what are we? Your murmurings are not against us but against the Lord."
Num. 16:11 "Therefore you and all your company are gathered together against the Lord. And what is Aaron that you murmur against him?"
1 Sam. 8:7-9 "And the Lord said to Samuel, 'Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them. According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt, even to this day - with which they have forsaken Me and served other gods - so they are doing to you also. Now therefore, heed their voice. However, you shall solemnly forewarn them, and show them the behavior of the king who will reign over them.' "
1 Sam. 10:17-19 "Then Samuel called the people together to the Lord at Mizpah, and said to the children of Israel, 'Thus says the Lord God of Israel: "I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of all kingdoms and from those who oppressed you. But you have today rejected your God, who Himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and you have said to Him, 'No, but set a king over us!'..." ' "
Luke 10:16

"He who hears you hears Me, he who rejects you rejects Me, and he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me."

John 12:48-50

"He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him - the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak."
