Sabbath School Net Posted on January 18, 2019 by Sabbath School LessonJanuary 17, 2019avatar

Inside Story – Joy in the Morning

Gorata Obonetse Image © Pacific Press

By Gorata Obonetse One day, a Seventh-day Adventist literature evangelist showed up at our door in Botswana. My mother was interested and bought three books by Ellen G. White: “Messages to Young People”, “The Desire of Ages”, and a King James Bible with “The Great Controversy.” Soon she started attending an Adventist church and was … Continue reading –>

Friday: Further Thought – Jesus’ Messages to the Seven Churches

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 17, 2019 by Sabbath School LessonJanuary 15, 2019avatar
Spectacles on Bible

Further Thought: Read Ellen G. White, “The Revelation”, pages 578-592, in The Acts of the Apostles. The seven messages to the churches show spiritual decline in the seven churches. The church in Ephesus was still faithful, although it had lost its first love. The churches in Smyrna and Philadelphia were largely faithful. Pergamum and Thyatira compromised more and … Continue reading –>

Thursday: Christians in Laodicea

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 16, 2019 by Sabbath School LessonJanuary 13, 2019avatar
http://www.goodsalt.com/details/lwjas0112.html?r=ssnet

The last church addressed by Jesus was in Laodicea, a wealthy city situated on a major trade road. It was famous for its woolen manufacturing industry, its banks (which held a vast quantity of gold); and a medical school which produced eye salve. The prosperity of Laodicea filled its citizens with self-sufficiency. Around A.D. 60, … Continue reading –>

Why Did John Write About Love so Much?

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 15, 2019 by William EarnhardtJanuary 21, 2019avatar

I find it interesting that when John left the Island of Patmos, many historians agree that he pastored the church of Ephesus. Most scholars agree that John wrote the book of 1 John in Ephesus after he wrote the Revelation on Patmos Island. This intrigues me for a couple of reasons. After seeing the apocalypse, instead … Continue reading –>

Wednesday: Christ’s Message to Philadelphia

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 15, 2019 by Sabbath School LessonJanuary 11, 2019avatar
Jesus of Revelation 1

The sixth church addressed by Jesus was Philadelphia (meaning “brotherly love”). The city was located on an imperial trade road and served as the gateway – an “open door” – to a large, fertile plateau. Excavations indicate that Philadelphia was a center to which people came for health and healing. Shaken by frequent earthquakes, the … Continue reading –>

Christ Is Coming!

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 14, 2019 by Linda MkhwanaziFebruary 13, 2019avatar
Glorious 2nd Advent

Between 2000 & 2019 I have probably heard of six dates where Christ was expected to come. I remember vividly how loud it was after 12 midnight on the first of January 2013. Celebration and relief were in the air and people were screaming, “We made it!” The idea that the world would end in … Continue reading –>

Tuesday: Christ’s Message to Sardis

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 14, 2019 by Sabbath School LessonJanuary 10, 2019avatar
Message to Sardis

Sardis had a glorious history. But by the Roman period, the city had lost its prestige. While the city was still enjoying wealth, its glory was rooted in its past history rather than in present reality. The ancient city had been built on top of a steep hill and was nearly impregnable. Because the citizens … Continue reading –>

3: Jesus’ Messages to the 7 Churches – Discussion Starters Jan 18, 2019

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 14, 2019 by Joyce GriffithJanuary 15, 2019avatar

The Seven Churches  Ephesus was covered in last week’s lesson.  Did Ephesus make a good choice for the first church in this discussion?   If “yes,” why? Smyrna. How was the church in Smyrna affected by the Diocletian persecution? What, if any, were the consequences?  Pergamos. Describe the advice of the “Nicolaitans” and what it … Continue reading –>

Monday: Christ’s Message to Thyatira

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 13, 2019 by Sabbath School LessonJanuary 9, 2019avatar
Message to Thyatira

In comparison with other cities, Thyatira had no political or cultural significance that we know of. Furthermore, the church was obscure. In order to run a business or have a job, people in the Roman Empire had to belong to trade guilds. Thyatira was especially noted for enforcing this requirement. Guild members had to attend … Continue reading –>

3: Jesus’ Messages to the Seven Churches – Singing With Inspiration

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 13, 2019 by Corinne KnopperJanuary 13, 2019avatar

The message to the church in Smyrna was:  “O Worship The Lord” – Hymn 6, and  Hymn 83, “O Worship the King” rather than the emperor. The only solution Jesus can offer to Pergamos is “Repent” in Revelation 2:16 –  Hymn 280, “Come, Ye Sinners”. Thyatira is encouraged to  “Hold Fast Til I Come” – Hymn … Continue reading –>

3: Jesus’ Messages to the Seven Churches – Lesson Outline

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 13, 2019 by Michael FrackerJanuary 13, 2019avatar

Key Thought: The messages to the churches in Asia in John’s day also symbolize the condition of the church in seven eras of church history. Jesus offers hope and explains the needs of each church. January 19, 2019 1. Have a volunteer read Revelation 2:8-11. Ask class members to share a thought on what the … Continue reading –>
