Are you contagious?
Leviticus 12-13/1Thessalonians

How to get the most out of Hungry Bible


OT

13:15b because open sores indicate the presence of a contagious skin disease.

NT

4:11-12 This should be your ambition: to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we commanded you before. As a result, people who are not Christians will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others to meet your financial needs.


OT Flash Points

Clean – unclean
Quarantine? Separation because of disease
Why is this logic so illogical to our society?
How can quarantine be construed as an offense, toward anyone?
It can only be based on a rejection of Biblical instruction
Why reject such wisdom?
Contagious? Don’t cover your head – don’t contain the infection of God’s Spirit

Nt Flash Points

Contagious Gospel
Doing the acts of Jesus – begins a new line of history because God blesses


Perspective

Go out of yourself, trusting God entirely
Don’t ask God what He is going to do next.
He won’t tell you
He will only reveal who He is
Continually go out into dependence on God
