King Saul
1 Samuel 10:1
1 Then Samuel took a flask of oil and poured it on Saul's head and kissed him, saying, "Has not the Lord anointed you leader over his inheritance?
1 Samuel 16:14
14 Now the Spirit of the Lord had departed from Saul, and an evil [1] spirit from the Lord tormented him.
It is well known that King Saul made some pretty foolish and jealousy-driven decisions in between time.
The circumcision group in Galatians
Galatians 5:4
4You who are trying to be justified by law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.
Luke 8:13--The believers who fell away
13Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away.
1 Timothy 18-20: Hymenaeus and Alexander
18Timothy, my son, I give you this instruction in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by following them you may fight the good fight, 19holding on to faith and a good conscience. Some have rejected these and so have shipwrecked their faith. 20Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.
And ofcourse, my personal favorite Judas Iscariot whom you can read all about by clicking here:
