God’s Providence Is Seen In The Lives Of Folks… Joseph (Gen ) Joseph (Gen ) Young Maid (II Kings 5:1-14) Young Maid (II Kings 5:1-14) Daniel (Daniel 2:47, 6:26-27) Daniel (Daniel 2:47, 6:26-27) God’s Providence Is Seen In Other Ways, Too! Jethro was a Priest (Ex. 2:16, 3:1, 18:1, 12) Pharaoh/Abimelech (Gen. 12:14-20, 20:1-18) “Heathen” nations (Rom. 4:15, 5:13) China … 1500’s in India … Early Americans

God’s Scattering BABEL Genesis 11 God’s intention (Gen. 1:28, 8:16-17, 9:1, 7) These people would have had Noah to talk to (Gen. 9:28) as well as the 3 sons! Due to their sin, God scattered the people! (v. 8-9) We see the rise of nations and languages.

God’s Scattering BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY II Kings (Prophesied: Deut. 4:27, 28:62-64  Neh. 1:8-9) Nebuchadnezzar took these folks away in three campaigns. Some good comes from the captivity: Daniel and three friends (Dan. 1-6) They had the chance to teach others.

THE CHRISTIANS IN ACTS 8 The Christians were forced out of Jerusalem. Philip: Samaria; Eunuch; on to Caesarea. Acts 11:19-26, 28:14-15 Philippians 1:12-13 James 1:1; I Peter 1:1 Is there any wonder we read of Christians in India, China, etc.? Colossians 1:5-6, 23 Rom. 16 I Cor. 16:15 Phil. 4:22;I Pet. 5:13 God’s Scattering

APPLICATIONS FOR US This is God’s way to spread His word… The first 2 “scatterings” were due to sin. Last was due to men’s sinful actions! What about US!?! “The World’s Bible” “The World’s Bible” II Timothy 2:2 II Timothy 2:2 If we are not scattering to teach (Acts 8), God will scatter us (Gen. 11; II Kings 24-25)!

“What Must I Do To Be Saved?” Hear The Gospel (Rom. 10:17) Believe In Christ (Jn. 8:24) Repent Of Sins (Lk.13:3) Confess Christ (Rom. 10:10) Be Baptized (I Pet. 3:21) For The Erring Child: Repent (Acts 8:22), Confess (I Jn. 1:9), Pray (Acts 8:22)
