7: Foundations for Prophecy — Teaching Plan — 3 Comments

  1. Hello,
    I’m a little frustrated. As a Sabbath School teacher, I was hoping for more depth of understanding Revelation. This is prophecy “lite” not prophecy light, in my opinion. While the OT references are crucial and must be incorporated, it seems like we are scratching the surface of the meat of Revelation. We’re more than half way through and we haven’t talked about the significance of the churches, the seals and trumpets, let alone the mark of the beast. These are questions people have, but we are not addressing them (using the quarterly) in a safe and nurturing environment. Instead we are walking on fluff and topics that could be brought out with just about any other Biblical story.

    Frustrated,
    Theresa Tacconelli

    • Theresa, if you'll look at the title of the quarterly and the introduction, you'll see that this quarter's lessons are not intended to be an in-depth study of Revelation or any other prophecies.

      Instead, the author tries to help us to understand biblical allusions, images and symbols that will prepare us to understand biblical prophecies.

      If you will look at each lesson and figure out how the lesson relates to biblical allusions, prophetic images and symbols, I think you can find it quite rewarding.

  2. I understand your feelings. I'm struggling too, indeed a knew it´ll be allusions, image and symbols I came here cause I have no clue about the specific object of this week class. I love to teach and I know there was a lot of prayer on the part of the writers of this lesson, but suddenly it's not clear to me what the objective is, and yes, I would have liked to go deeper. Greetings, and thank you for these resources.
