Key Thought: The three angels’ messages are the mission to the world, our identifying statement of faith, and our unique prophetic identity. This is our passion to proclaim the gospel.
April 15, 2023

1. Have a volunteer read Revelation 5:6-8, I Corinthians 15:1-4, Romans 3:24-26.

1. Ask class members to share a short thought on what the most important point is in this passage.
2. What does the seven eyes and seven horns represent on the Lamb?
   (Note: Christ has perfect power and perfect wisdom. Eyes are a symbol of wisdom. Horns are a symbol of power. Seven is the number of completeness or perfection. The seven spirits represent the one perfect Holy Spirit throughout the seven eras of Christian history.)
3. Personal Application: If the odors of incense are the prayers of the saints, how important is it for us to pray earnestly in every situation? Share your thoughts.
4. Case Study: One of your relatives states, “Who is the Lamb and what book did He take from the right hand of God? What were the seven seals He opened from the book? How would you respond to your relative?
   (Note: The seven seals correspond to the seven churches – seven eras of church history from the early church to the end of the Christian era when Jesus comes.)

2. Have a volunteer read Revelation 13:8, I Peter 1:18-20.

1. Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in this text is.
2. Jesus was the Lamb that takes away the sins of the world. Why does it say He was foreordained before the foundation of the world?
   (Note: The plan of salvation had been put in place before mankind was created in case they fell into sin and rebellion)
3. Personal Application: How do people’s choices influence their relationship with Christ and ultimately, their salvation? Share your thoughts.
4. Case Study: One of your friends states, “So we are called the chosen and we are preordained to be saved. Does that mean God chooses who’s saved and who’s lost? Or does it mean Christ died on the cross for everyone, so everyone will be saved? Or is it only those who accept Christ will be saved and everyone else will be lost?” How would you respond to your friend?
   (Note: Can one give the three angels’ messages clearly if they can’t answer this question correctly?)

3. Have a volunteer read Revelation 14:6, Matthew 28:19,20.

1. Ask class members to share a short thought on what the most important point in this text is.
2. What is the extent of these messages? Why is it vital to be missionary minded globally?
3. Personal Application: What does your experience with being a part of something bigger or greater than yourself mean to you? Do you feel the urgency of your part in sharing this gospel with others? Share your thoughts.
4. Case Study: One of your neighbors states: “How is the everlasting gospel going to be preached when many of the countries of the world are anti-Christian – either Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, Shintu, Communist, or Atheist? How cam God’s people share this gospel in antagonistic areas?” How would you respond to your relative?

4. Have a volunteer read Revelation 14:6, Acts 1:8, Matthew 24:14..

1. Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in this text is.
2. Do you believe that if we are willing to go into all the world, that signs and wonders will follow and God will bless their efforts?
3. Personal Application: What role can you play in bringing the three angels’ messages to the entire world? Share your thoughts.
4. Case Study: Think of one person who needs to hear a message from this week’s lesson. Tell the class what you plan to do this week to share with them.
