1. A bat and a ball cost $1.10.
2. The bat costs one dollar more than the

.10 Cents?
Thinking, Fast and Slow
by Daniel Kahneman
• If the bat and ball cost $1.10
• AND we say the ball is .10 cents
• THEN for the bat to be one full dollar
more than the ball it would have to be
$1.10
• BUT if the bat is $1.10 and the ball is .10
cents, then the total is $1.20, NOT $1.10

The correct answer=.05 cents!
The bat is now $1.05…giving a total of
$1.10 for both

Isaiah 54:5 (NIV)

Almighty is his name-- the Holy One of Israel is your

Celebrate God’s Rest With Joy
NOT Syncretism
5:33-39
Romans 15:13 (NIV)
May the God of hope fill you with
all joy and peace as you trust in
him, so that you may overflow
with hope by the power of the
Holy Spirit.
John 1:17
For the law was given through
Moses; grace and truth came
through Jesus Christ.
Romans 3:19-24
Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those
who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced
and the whole world held accountable to God. 20 Therefore
no one will be declared righteous in his sight by
observing the law; rather, through the law we become
conscious of sin. 21 But now a righteousness from God,
apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and
the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness from God comes
through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no
difference, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of
God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace through the
redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Romans 7:4-6
So, my brothers, you also died to the law through the
body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him
who was raised from the dead, in order that we might
bear fruit to God. 5 For when we were controlled by the
sinful nature, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at
work in our bodies, so that we bore fruit for death. 6 But now,
by dying to what once bound us, we have been released
from the law so that we serve in the new way of the
Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
Heb 8:10-13
This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after
that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds
and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they
will be my people. 11 No longer will a man teach his neighbor,
or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' because they
will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.
12 For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their
sins no more.” 13 By calling this covenant "new," he has
made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and
aging will soon disappear.
Celebrate God’s Rest with Freedom
NOT Legalism
6:1-5
Deuteronomy 23:24-25 (NIV)
If you enter your neighbor's vineyard,
you may eat all the grapes you want, but
do not put any in your basket. 25 If you
enter your neighbor's grainfield, you may
pick kernels with your hands, but you
must not put a sickle to his standing
grain.
Matthew 11:28-29
“Come unto me all who are
weary and heavy laden and I
will give you rest…”
