Genesis 27:26-27
26 Finally his father Isaac said to him, “Come closer, son, and kiss me.” 27 As Jacob went up and kissed him, Isaac smelled the fragrance of his clothes. With that, he blessed him, saying, "Ah, the fragrance of my son is like the fragrance of a field that the LORD has blessed!

The Church emphasizes that a person becomes a Christian and first receives the Holy Spirit through faith and Baptism. There are at least four passages in the NT which support this, name 2 of them.

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved; whoever does not believe will be condemned. - John 3:5

Peter (said) to them, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. - Acts 22:16
Now, why delay? Get up and have yourself baptized and your sins washed away, calling upon his name. - Romans 6:3-4
Or are you unaware that we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life. - Galatians 3:27
For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. - Titus 3:5
not because of any righteous deeds we had done but because of his mercy, he saved us through the bath of rebirth and renewal by the holy Spirit, - Hebrews 10:22
let us approach with a sincere heart and in absolute trust, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water. - 1 Peter 3:21
This prefigured baptism, which saves you now. It is not a removal of dirt from the body but an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
Which 4 were you thinking of?

Okay, this is probably really easy, so I’ll make it a two-part question.
The Gospel of John is generally divided into which two “books”?
How many “books” can the Gospel of Matthew be divided into, and why is it that number?

Grace and Glory:
the Gospel of John is generally divided into
Prologue, The Book of Signs. (The Book of Glory?)
The Gospel of Matthew can be divided into 7 books:
1.)The Prologue; The coming of The Savior, 2.) Promulgation of the Reign of God, 3.) Preaching The Word of God, 4.) Mystery of The Reign of God, 5.) The Reign Become Church, 6.) First Steps in Establishing God’s Reign and 7.) The Passion and the Resurrection.
It was divided this way so that it would be meaningful to the Christian Communities of St. Matthews time.

It is the story of Balaam and the donkey. Balaam was hired to go and curse God’s people. God let the donkey talk. Balaam realized what he was doing and went and blessed God’s people instead of cursing them.
But there is no ox in that story.

The ox and the *** are mentioned in Isaiah; both in chapters 1:3 and 32:20.
They are also mentioned in 1 Samuel, Job, Exodus as well as others.
This may not answer the question, but I hope I get credit for doing the research.

The Didache was an instruction Manuel - Covered everything from basic doctrine to practical and ethical questions.
But the writings of the Church Fathers are usually refered to as “Patristic” Writings - “Patristics” are usually divided into Sub-Apostolic Fathers, Ante-Nicene Fathers and Post-Nicene Fathers.
The Sub-Apostolic Fathers (e.g., St. Polycarp of Smyna, Pope St. Clement of Rome, The Didache) are usually dealing with very basic issues and with persecution.
The Ante-Nicene Fathers (e.g., St. Irenaeus, Origen, St. Hippolytus) are usually dealing with more complicated issues and persecution.
The Post-Nicene Fathers (e.g., St. Athanasius of Alexandria, Pope St. Gregory the Great, St Augustine) are usually dealing with heresies, Ecumenical Councils and the Collapse of Secular Society.
The Didache forms a very small part of this huge volume of literature.
I hope this helps ease some of the confusion.

Korah
Korah, son of Izhar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, (and Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, son of Pallu, son of Reuben) took two hundred and fifty Israelites who were leaders in the community, members of the council and men of note. They stood before Moses, and held an assembly against Moses and Aaron, to whom they said, “Enough from you! The whole community, all of them, are holy; the LORD is in their midst. Why then should you set yourselves over the LORD’S congregation?” Numbers 16:1-3 NAB
