First Lesson
Proverbs 6:12-19
12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.
13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth
with his fingers;
14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually;
he soweth discord.
15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall
he be broken without remedy.
16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination
unto him:
17 A
proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift
in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord
among brethren.
1st Lesson Questions:
Proverbs 6:12-19. When was the last time I was like the person(s) in this passage? Why? Why did I change? Have I changed? Which of the seven things am I most susceptible to? (Vs. 17-19) RESOLVE.
Second Lesson
Ephesians 5:1-14
1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given
himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling
savour.
3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let
it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which
are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person,
nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in
the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these
things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the
Lord: walk as children of light:
9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness
and truth;)
10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
11 And
have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but
rather reprove them.
12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are
done of them in secret.
13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the
light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from
the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
2nd Lesson Questions:
Ephesians 5:1-14. Do I have fellowship with the works of darkness (V. 11)? How so? What are they? RESOLVE.
