Thursday: Governance of the Church

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 21, 2012 by Sabbath School LessonFebruary 14, 2016avatar

Governance means getting things done. This is true of general social life, and it is also true of church life. Governance also involves organization, which means the organizing of things into a functioning, coherent whole with rules, regulations, and structures designed to facilitate a task at hand. Authority is also critical to governance. At the … Continue reading –>

Wednesday: Unity of the Church

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 20, 2012 by Sabbath School LessonFebruary 14, 2016avatar
Spirit-led Community - image of interlocking hands of various races.

The church-depicted as the “called out” of God, the “people of God,” the “body of Christ” and the “temple of the Holy Spirit” – is fitted for service or mission. Unity is essential to the church because without it the church cannot successfully accomplish its mission. It is no wonder that the issue of unity … Continue reading –>

Tuesday: The Mission of the Church

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 19, 2012 by Sabbath School LessonFebruary 14, 2016avatar

The church as ‘the body of Christ’ means that the church is to do what Christ would do if He were still on the earth ‘bodily’. It is for this reason that the church as an ‘assembly’ has been called out. The church does not simply have a mission; the church is mission. Read Matthew 28:19-20. How does … Continue reading –>

Monday: Nature of the Church: Part 2

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 18, 2012 by Sabbath School LessonFebruary 14, 2016avatar

Besides the word ecclesia itself, the New Testament describes the church with several images that further explain its nature and function. Today we will look at just two crucial concepts regarding the church: the church as the people of God and the church as the body of Christ. 1. The “people of God” as a concept is applied … Continue reading –>

Sunday: Nature of the Church: Part 1

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 17, 2012 by Sabbath School LessonFebruary 14, 2016avatar
Hands surrounding a Puzzle Globe

When we speak about the nature of something, we are usually interested in its origins, function, and purpose. Besides providing several images to depict the church, the Bible uses a particular word in reference to it, ecclesia, which means “called out” or “called forth.” In secular Greek life the word was used primarily to describe a group … Continue reading –>

Thursday: Praying Always

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 14, 2012 by Sabbath School LessonFebruary 14, 2016avatar

Ephesians 6:18 begins with the phrase “praying always,” which suggests that praying is connected with the previous verses. The idea is that the putting on, taking up, and receiving of heaven’s armor all necessitate reliance on God. Hence, “prayer is not another weapon; rather, it is the spirit, the manner, in which the whole armor is … Continue reading –>
