God gives Moses the final instructions for Pharoah. The firstborn will be killed before Pharoah will relent and let Israel go.  God judges Egypt and fulfills a prophecy He made over 500 years earlier, namely that Israel would come out of Egypt with great wealth.  God repays Israel for years of slavery when Egypt gives Israel great wealth then wishing them to go. This session also gives us a chance to deal with the problem of evil and the question of whether God's actions were moral. 

Pharoah's refusal to submit to the God of Israel has destroyed his land, which is a picture of the destruction in our lives when we will not submit to the Lord. 

• Does God have the power to accomplish His will through the free acts of people?
• Is it fair of God to take the lives of all the firstborn people and animals?
• What is God capable of doing?
• What is the significance of taking of Pharoah's firsborn?
