J. Sidlow Baxter wrote “Explore the Book” - an exemplary outlined
Commentary on all the books of the Bible. Some of his titles are
excellent. Some 40 years ago I made my own outline of the Bible, not
thinking I would ever edit and send out my outlines with a few of his
titles. Now that I am doing so, and though Dr. Baxter has had his
home-going, I want to give credit where credit is due. A few of the
Titles in Exodus and Leviticus come from this man. You will probably
be able to spot his - from mine.</span></span></font></p>

<font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">These
regulations for Israel are fairly stiff! Where they deal with
morality - we as Gentiles need to walk in them too - such as in 2.,
6. and 7. above. I know our society and culture counts this part of
the Bible as being “politically incorrect”. Our society and
culture is </span></span></font><u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="">wrong</span></font></u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

Bible</span></font></u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
is correct! When the religious leaders of the apostle Peter's day
tried to shut him and his brother apostles up - he said - “Whether
it is right to listen to you - or God- </span></span></font><u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="">you</span></font></u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
