June 21, read through the Holy Bible in a year in Power-point, with comments.

Today, we read one chapter in the Apostle Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians and three 10 chapters in second Chronicles.

June 21: 1 Corinthians 9, 2 Chronicles 10, 2 Chronicles 11, 2 Chronicles 12 (click on the chapter to begin reading)

1 Corinthians 9. The Apostle Paul showed a pattern of self denial so as to serve all men. He was striving for a crown as he was “running the race”.

2 Chronicles 10. Israel rebelled against Rehoboam, and nothing good came out of that.

2 Chronicles 11. The LORD warned against going to war with Israel, so instead Rehoboam fortified the cities, the priests and Levites left Israel and moved to Judah.  The family tree of Rehoboam is recorded.

2 Chronicles 12. Egypt Attacked Jerusalem and Judah paid the ransom. The reign of Rehoboam ended.
