9: Jerusalem Controversies – Singing with Inspiration
It is wonderful to travel through John Mark’s life and see the beautiful story climax with
Christ The Lord Is Risen Today – Hymn 166, therefore
Go, Preach My Gospel – Hymn 378. These two hymns give us a purpose all during this quarter to hasten the coming of our
Lord Jesus. May you enjoy these hymns for your theme hymn from which to choose.
“The Triumphal Entry” has many aspects sung in
Hymn 372 – How Beauteous Are Their Feet, especially where Verse 5 states that “Jerusalem breaks forth in songs”.
Monday, Jesus teaches us about forgiveness and what happens to the fig tree. We may raise our voices in
Hymn 414 – Fruitful Trees, The Spirit’s Sowing which captivates these teachings, and finalises this teaching with
Hymn 299 – Forgive Our Sins As We Forgive.
As we go about our daily duties, where “actions speak louder than words”, we are labouring in His vineyard just as we find in Verse 4 of
Hymn 253 – There’s No Other Name Like Jesus.
Our “Earthly Duties” (Wednesday) study, gives us the courage to know we are to
Work, For The Night Is Coming – Hymn 375.
“The Greatest Commandment,” teaching tells us to “love God with all your heart”. With our actions then speaking louder than our words, the lyrics of
O Brother, Be Faithful – Hymn 602 will stand out. Ellen White says this again on Friday – “They say, but do not”. Like the scribe at the end of Thursday’s study, we are to “recognize who Jesus” is and “follow Him” –
Hymn 623 – I Will Follow Thee.
Please continue to search the scriptures this week to be blessed and to bless many others.
