  2. Embracing Loving Service Motivation for Our Zeal (1 Cor. 1:1-3) • Good works indicative of great zeal? • What can make them of no value?

  3. Embracing Loving Service Zeal with Loving Service: Phinehas • Num. 25:1-18 – Zeal in Atonement • How does God describe the actions of Phinehas? • Was there any selfish ambition evident? • Was love for God and his people evident?

  4. Embracing Loving Service Zeal with Loving Service: Phinehas • Joshua 22 – Zeal in Peacemaking • What was the belief about the altar? (vv. 16-20) • What was the truth about the altar? (vv. 26-28) • What was Phinehas’ response upon learning the truth? (v. 31) • Why did Phinehas act as he did?

  5. Embracing Loving Service Zeal with Loving Service: Phinehas • Why did Phinehas have zeal with loving service? • How does God see sin? (Isa. 59:2; Rom. 6:23) • How does God see righteousness? (Jas. 2:23; Job 1:8; Gen. 6:8-9; 2 Pet. 2:5) When we begin to see sin and righteousness as God sees them, it will deepen our love for Him and for others, making our zeal more fruitful.
