Read 1 Corinthians 7 then answer these questions:
1. What subject is discussed in chap. 7? Why did Paul write about it?
2. Does the Bible describe marriage as good or bad – 7:1? Give book/chapter/verse. (Think: Why does Paul discourage it? Study context, esp. v26.)

4. Special Assignment: List purposes the Bible gives for marriage.
5. What should husband and wife do for one another – 7:3? Explain.
6. What reason is given why husband and wife should give what is due – 7:4? (Think: What does this mean, and what conclusions follow?)
7. Under what conditions may a couple refrain – 7:5? What is the reason for this rule? (Think: Describe practices that violate this rule.)
8. Case Study: Many people live together in “trial marriages” to see if they are compatible. How would this and other passages apply?

God Himself Is Judge “For the World Is Mine, and All Its Fullness.”
=================================================

Does our obedience to God make Him indebted to bless us? If not, can we receive His mercy without obeying? How does God view those who teach but do not obey His word? How important is a good example? How does God view those who defend or justify the sins of others?

Please read Psalms 50,51 and answer the following questions.
1. How is God’s coming described in 50:1-3?
2. Whom does God call together, and for what purpose does He call them – 50:4-8?
3. Application: What reasons does God give why He does not need man’s gifts – 50:9-13? What lessons should we learn?
4. What does God want from His people, and what does He promise them – 50:14,15?
5. Application: What accusations does He make against the people, and what should they not do as a result – 50:16-20? What should we learn about who should teach God’s word? Are people sometimes guilty of the same errors today? Explain.
6. How had the people reacted to God’s past responses – 50:21-23? What does He require them to do now?
7. Application: Describe David’s confession of sin in 51:1-4. What should we learn about what God requires when we sin? (Think: What sin occasioned this request from David?)
8. Case Study: Many people say 51:5 means all people are born totally depraved because they inherit the guilt of Adam’s sin. Use Scripture to respond. See Ezekiel 18:20; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Matthew 18:3; Psalms 106:37,38; etc. How do you explain 51:5?
9. Describe David’s plea for forgiveness according to 51:6-10.

None of Those Who Trust in Wealth Can Redeem His Brother
===============================================

How was the glory of Jerusalem described and why was this important to people of Israel? What is our Jerusalem and temple today, and how should we view it? How do people sometimes over-emphasize wealth? What is wealth unable to accomplish? Where should we place our trust instead of in wealth?

Evolutionist Admits Evolution Has Promoted Immorality
==========================================

“Evolution educators … must confront the ways that evolutionary science has implicitly undergirded and explicitly promoted or has naively inspired so many racist, sexist, and otherwise harmful beliefs and actions. We can no longer arm students with the ideas that have had harmful sociocultural consequences without addressing them explicitly because our failure to do so effectively is the primary reason these horrible consequences exist.” “Without alternative perspectives, who can blame so many folks for out-right avoiding evolutionary thinking?” So she proposes a public relations makeover of evolution’s “sordid past” and “sordid present” – Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Rhode Island, Holly Dunsworth (via Creation, 41 (2), 2019, page 9 https://creation.com/focus-41-2)
