Leviticus 9
- On the 8th day Moses told Aaron to sacrifice a bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.
- Why did they have to do this again?
- They told the people to take a goat for a isn offering and a year old calf and a lamb for a burnt offering and an ox and a ram as a peace offering and a grain offering with oil.
- Did each person have to bring these things or was this for everyone together?
- Doing this would cause the glory of the Lord to be with them.
- Aaron first offered the calf and sprinkled it, burned part of it as God had previously required.
- Aaron did the same with the burnt offering.
- He sacrificed the goat and the grain offering.
- Then he killed the ox and the ram.
- Aaron lifted his hands and blessed the people.
- Aaron and Moses went into the tent of meeting and came out blessing the people again.
- The glory of the Lord appeared to all of the people.
- Fire came out from the Lord and consumed the offering.
- The people shouted and fell of their faces.
Proverbs 25
- Why did Hezekiah's men copy these Proverbs?
- God conceals thing but kings try to figure things out.
- Do not exalt yourself, but let others praise you.
- Try to solve problems with the person instead of going to court.
- A ruler/boss is persuaded by patience.
- Do not eat too much and get sick
- Don't over visit your neighbor or he may hate you
- Is singing when you're sad good or not?
- How is heaping burning coals on your neighbor's head kind like feeding him?
- It is not good to seek you own glory.
- A man without self control is not a good thing.
Acts 7
- Stephen spoke to the crowd.
- Stephen started by retelling the promises God made to Abraham and giving him a son and giving his people land after 400 years of exile.
- Stephen then turns their attention to Jacob and the story of Joseph who was lifted up by Pharaoh in Egypt.
- The new Pharaoh didn't know Joseph and oppressed the Israelites until Moses birth.
- At 40 years of age Moses killed and Egyptian who was mistreating a Jewish slave. He fled to Midian.
- Moses stayed in Midian another 40 years until an angel spoke to him from the burning bush.

- Stephen looked into heaven and said he saw the Son of God seated at His right hand, and they rushed upon him.
- They stoned Stephen to death, but as he was dying he asked God not to hold this sin against them.
- Saul (later Paul) was there watching this take place.
- Stephen was the first new Christian killed for his faith.
1 Thessalonians 2
- Paul says he was mistreated in Philippi when he visited.
- Why doesn't Paul mention this in Philippians?
- Paul says he didn't make demands of them but treated them gently like his own children.
- Paul did not burden them with anything but taught them to walk in a manner worthy of their calling by God.
- Paul is constantly grateful for the way they received the gospel.
- Why does Paul speak so harshly against the Jews instead of praying for their salvation?
- What does Paul mean when he says God's wrath has come upon them at last?
- Paul says that Satan hindered him from returning to Thessalonica.
- Paul call the Thessalonians his glory and joy.
