If you had been present when the Samaritans offered to help, how would you have responded? Why did the Jews reject their offer? 2. What tactics did the Samaritans use to oppose God’s people? What turned out to be the most effective tactic they used against God’s people? 3. Why did the people of God stop work and how was it restarted again? In your opinion, do you think the completion of the temple was entirely God’s hand at work or was it also a case of God’s people showing determination and perseverance? 4. Is someone or something discouraging you from doing the will of God? How can the example of today’s sermon give you courage and perseverance? What can other Christians do to help you? 5. In the face of more frequent oppositions to the Christian beliefs and practices, what can you be assured of and still celebrate about? 信息笔记 SERMON NOTES 经文 Scripture Ezra 4:23 24, 5:1 2, 6:13 16 日期 Date 4/9/2022
