Day 4: Tito

Leviticus 24

This was an interesting chapter in Leviticus. There are several things that stood out.

What does it mean to blaspheme the Name with a curse?

Also, the whole eye for an eye concept is very clear in this chapter. Alot of the things that are mentioned in Leviticus do not apply now a days. But then again, The US still holds the death penalty in many of the states. So, where do we draw the line?

What does the eye for an eye discussion have to do with the blasphemer?

Isaiah 33

Do you think heaven is being described in these past two chapters? "No one living in Zion will say, "I am ill" and the sins of those who dwell there will be forgiven"

Acts 16

Verse 6 and on says that the Holy Spirit kept them from preaching the gospel in Asia and that the spirit of Jesus kept them from founf into Bithynia. What does this say to us?

Verse 6-verse 10 switches from third person to first person...why? I guess Luke was with them by that time?

Paul and Silas' experience in jail was amazing. They had compassion on the soldier and changed his life. It is incredible how they had a choice to run and leave the jail or to stay where they were in danger and impact the smae man that was holding him captive in a sense. It is also awesome how they stood up with boldness. Understanding their place in society as Roman citizens, they used that to their advantage and the advantage of the gospel!
