13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned,[a] but have not love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;[b] 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.Wed- Choir 7pm

YESTERDAY'S BIBLE QUIZ: What was the last plague against Egypt before the exodus?
Every firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the hand mill, even all the firstborn of the cattle. Thanks DON NOLTE!!

5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
and before you were born I consecrated you;
I appointed you a prophet to the nations."
6 Then I said, "Ah, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth." 7 But the Lord said to me,
"Do not say, 'I am only a youth';
for to all to whom I send you, you shall go,
and whatever I command you, you shall speak.
8 Do not be afraid of them,
for I am with you to deliver you,
declares the Lord."
9 Then the Lord put out his hand and touched my mouth. And the Lord said to me,
"Behold, I have put my words in your mouth.
10 See, I have set you this day over nations and over kingdoms,
to pluck up and to break down,
to destroy and to overthrow,
to build and to plant."
17 But you, dress yourself for work;[c] arise, and say to them everything that I command you. Do not be dismayed by them, lest I dismay you before them. 18 And I, behold, I make you this day a fortified city, an iron pillar, and bronze walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests, and the people of the land. 19 They will fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you, declares the Lord, to deliver you."

18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives
and recovering of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty those who are oppressed,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."
20 And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down.And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. 21 And he began to say to them, "Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing." 22 And all spoke well of him and marveled at the gracious words that were coming from his mouth. And they said, "Is not this Joseph's son?" 23 And he said to them, "Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, 'Physician, heal yourself.' What we have heard you did at Capernaum, do here in your hometown as well." 24 And he said, "Truly, I say to you, no prophet is acceptable in his hometown. 25 But in truth, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heavens were shut up three years and six months, and a great famine came over all the land, 26 and Elijah was sent to none of them but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. 27 And there were many lepers[a] in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian." 28 When they heard these things, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath. 29 And they rose up and drove him out of the town and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, so that they could throw him down the cliff. 30 But passing through their midst, he went away.

YESTERDAY'S BIBLE QUIZ: What did Shechem do to Dinah, and what did Dinah's brothers do in revenge?
This answer comes from Denise Schlesselmann all the way in the Czech Republic.
So the answer to the question is that Shechem the Hivite saw Dinah while she was visiting the Hivite women. Dinah is the oft forgoten sibling of Joseph and his brothers. Shechem was the son of the ruler. Shechem decided Dinah was the girl for him but instead of first asking his dad to get the girl for him he "took her and violated her". But then he really fell in love with her and spoke tenderly to her. So now he asked his dad to get Dinah to be his wife. Hamor, Shechem's dad went to Jacob while his sons were there and told him "My son loves your daughter, let's have them get married. Then your sons can marry our daughters. You can live in our land." Shechem chimes in "I will pay any price I just want the girl!" Jacobs sons said "Okay but only if you get circumcised." Hamor and his sons said "Okay." They convinced all the men in the city to be circumcised so that they could marry into Jacob's family and the men could get their property too. 3 days after the circumcision Simeon and Levi went to the city and killed every man. The took Dinah back too. Then they took all their property, wives and children. Jacob was angry because he knew all the people where they lived were angry with Jacob's family. But the brothers said they were only defending their sister. It was after this that God told Jacob to leave and gave him the name of Israel
