Do we need to Love Ourselves Before we can Love Others?

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 5, 2021 by Inge AndersonMay 29, 2024avatar

It was a novel idea, and it did sound logical. But  it  didn’t feel right: “We must love ourselves first, or we cannot love others as Jesus told us to.” The speaker  at our dorm vespers explained that, since Jesus told to love others as we love ourselves, we must first love ourselves. As a … Continue reading –>

Friday: Further Thought ~ Rest in Christ

Sabbath School Net Posted on July 1, 2021 by Sabbath School LessonJune 27, 2021avatar
Spectacles on Bible

Further Thought: “In the estimation of the rabbis it was the sum of religion to be always in a bustle of activity. They depended upon some outward performance to show their superior piety. Thus they separated their souls from God, and built themselves up in self-sufficiency. The same dangers still exist. As activity increases and … Continue reading –>

Thursday: A Restless Wanderer

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 30, 2021 by Sabbath School LessonJune 27, 2021avatar
Restless Wanderer

Read Genesis 4:1-12. What made Cain “a restless wanderer” (Genesis 4:12) on the earth? The biblical text does not explicitly state why God respected Abel and his offering but did not “respect” Cain and his offering ( Genesis 4.4-5). But we know why. “Cain came before God with murmuring and infidelity in his heart in regard to the … Continue reading –>

Wednesday: Rest in the New Testament

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 29, 2021 by Sabbath School LessonJune 27, 2021avatar
Man Splashed with Water

A verbal form for rest often found in the New Testament is anapauo, “rest, relax, refresh.” It is used in one of Jesus’ most famous statements on rest, Matthew 11:28: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (NKJV). It can refer to physical rest (Matthew 26:45). In the … Continue reading –>

Tuesday: Defining Rest in the Old Testament

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 28, 2021 by Sabbath School LessonJune 27, 2021avatar
Taking a Nap While Working

Certainly, we all need rest, which is why it’s a theme found all through the Bible. Though God created us for activity, that activity is to be punctuated by rest. The Hebrew Old Testament, for instance, includes a number of terms denoting rest. The description of God’s resting on the newly created seventh day in  … Continue reading –>

Monday: Running on Empty

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 27, 2021 by Sabbath School LessonJune 27, 2021avatar
Discouraged Man

Lack of sleep and exhaustion due to physical overexertion are real problems. More troubling, however, is when we feel that we are running on “emotional empty.” And, of course, when lack of sleep is added to emotional trials, we can become painfully discouraged. Baruch, Jeremiah’s scribe, must have felt like that often during the last … Continue reading –>

Sunday: Worn and Weary

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 26, 2021 by Sabbath School LessonJune 27, 2021avatar
Woman Resting in the Word

Read Genesis 2:1-3. Why would God create a rest day before anyone was even tired? Even before humanity would dash off on our self-imposed stressful lives, God established a marker, a living way to jog our memory. This day would be a time to stop and deliberately enjoy life; a day to be and not to … Continue reading –>

Rest for the Restless   The flight had been uneventful until the moment the captain announced from the flight deck that the plane would have to cross a major storm. “Please tighten your seat belts. We will be in for quite a ride,” the voice from the cockpit said in ending the announcement. Soon after, … Continue reading –>
