Notes
Transcript
In addition, Josiah eradicated the mediums, the spiritists, household idols, images, and all the abhorrent things that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem. He did this in order to carry out the words of the law that were written in the book that the priest Hilkiah found in the Lord’s temple. Before him there was no king like him who turned to the Lord with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength according to all the law of Moses, and no one like him arose after him.
As we are facing the week of See you at the pole where the choice to step out on faith and show other students that you are a follower of Jesus, We are going to Focus on the theme of this year and on what exactly the three R’s are about.

He did this in order to carry out the words of the law that were written in the book that the priest Hilkiah found in the Lord’s temple.
Now this seems pretty simple considering that He was a king and had the ability to cast out whoever he wanted. Understand that they have been live these sinful was for a long time and it was almost second nature when doing it.
