Tomorrow:
- Numbers 4-7 (dry, but adultery test & Nazirite vow are interesting)
- 1 Kings 17-20 (Elijah/Ahab/ Jezebel; Mt. Carmel)
- Psalms 79-82
- Lamentations 3 - Ezekiel 1 (Hear a tune in your head with Lamentations 3:22-24; the book of Ezekiel starts off with a bang!)
- Romans 4-7 (The "desert." Also see 6:3-6 - it's a shame some people use 1 Corinthians 1:17 to preach Paul didn't believe baptism necessary!)

I know I have hit this a couple of times. Baptism. Perhaps the most common and worst false teaching I can think of is that baptism isn't necessary, and that it was Paul who said so.
If I can help arm people with only one thing, it is the ability to take the double-edged sword of the Word to this killer of souls and destroy it... mercilessly.
2 Corinthians 10:5

Difference of opinion on this doctrine has ended the most number of pastor interviews in our church. It is a historically divisive topic that really shouldn't be and I think people tend to over-complicate it. Comparing baptism to patterns in relationships like marriage and adoption seems to help most folks understand the necessity. Charts are not usually helpful.
