Sabbath: The Second Missionary Journey

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 24, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonAugust 30, 2018avatar
Image © Pacific Press from GoodSalt.com

Read for This Week’s Study: Acts 16, Rom. 3:28, Gal. 2:16, Acts 17, 1 Cor. 1:23, Acts 18:1-10. Memory Text: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent. For I am with you, and no one is going to attack and harm you, because I have many people in this city”, (Acts 18:9-10, NIV). Back in Antioch, Paul and … Continue reading –>

Friday: Further Study – The Jerusalem Council

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 23, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonSeptember 10, 2018avatar
Spectacles on Bible

Further Study: “The Jewish converts generally were not inclined to move as rapidly as the providence of God opened the way. From the result of the apostles’ labors among the Gentiles it was evident that the converts among the latter people would far exceed the Jewish converts in number. The Jews feared that if the restrictions … Continue reading –>

Thursday: The Letter from Jerusalem

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 22, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonAugust 27, 2018avatar
Jerusalem Council

Read Acts 15:22-29. What additional measures were taken by the Jerusalem church concerning the council’s decision? The first measure was to write a letter to the Gentile believers in order to inform them of what had been decided. The letter, written in the name of the apostles and elders of Jerusalem, was an official document that … Continue reading –>

Circumcision of the Heart

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 22, 2018 by William EarnhardtSeptember 3, 2018avatar

While I was away on a brief vacation this summer, a friend covering a family Bible study in my place called. Apparently the family was reading through Genesis on their own. After learning what circumcision is, the family’s young daughter asked my friend a question the family could not answer. “God wanted boys to be … Continue reading –>

Wednesday: The Apostolic Decree

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 21, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonSeptember 6, 2018avatar
Council of Jerusalem

Read Acts 15:28-29. What four prohibitions did the council decide to impose on Gentile converts? The main issue for which the council had been convened was satisfactorily resolved. Because salvation is by grace, believing Gentiles were exempted from circumcision when they joined the church. Yet, they should abstain from four things: (1) meat offered in sacrifice … Continue reading –>

8: The Jerusalem Council – Singing with Inspiration

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 20, 2018 by Corinne KnopperAugust 20, 2018avatar

The memory text for this week brings our first hymn to mind:  Hymn 511, “I Know Whom I Have Believed”. With the troubles in the new church in Jerusalem in the study on both Sunday and Monday, the people did not see that: “Jesus Paid It All” – Hymn 184 and that He was our salvation:  … Continue reading –>

Tuesday: The Debate

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 20, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonAugust 30, 2018avatar
Debate

Read Acts 15:7-11. What was Peter’s contribution to the debate in Jerusalem? Luke, of course, does not report all the proceedings of the meeting. It would be interesting to know, for example, the supporting arguments of the Judaizers (Acts 15:5), as well as Paul’s and Barnabas’s responses (Acts 15:12). The fact that we have only Peter’s and James’s … Continue reading –>

8 The Jerusalem Council – Discussion Starters

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 20, 2018 by Joyce GriffithAugust 25, 2018avatar

What group of early Christians arrived on the scene in Antioch and caused immediate problems in the early church? Where did they come from? Were they circumcised or not? Do you think they were just Pharisees who accepted Christ or did they have some other religious background as well? True or false: Paul, being the strong … Continue reading –>

The Jerusalem Council – Teaching Plan

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 20, 2018 by Michael FrackerOctober 6, 2018avatar

Key Thought: We should always strive to keep in step with Christ to fulfill His will. Egos must be put aside for the sake of the Spirit’s saving activity. Lesson 8, August 25, 2018 1. Have a volunteer read Acts 15:1-5. Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in … Continue reading –>

Monday: Circumcision

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 19, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonAugust 26, 2018avatar
The Argument

One of the great issues in this conflict was circumcision. This was not a human institution (contrast Matt. 15:2, Matt. 15:9). Rather, it had been commanded by God Himself as a sign of His covenant with Abraham’s descendants as His chosen people (Gen. 17:9-14). Read Exodus 12:43-49. In addition to born Israelites, who else was supposed to be circumcised? The … Continue reading –>

Sunday: The Point at Issue

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 18, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonAugust 25, 2018avatar
Encouragement

From the beginning, the church at Antioch consisted of both (Hellenistic) Jews and uncircumcised Gentiles (Acts 11:19-21, Gal. 2:11-13) who apparently lived in peaceful fellowship with each other. That fellowship, however, was shattered by the arrival of a group of believers from Jerusalem. Read Acts 15:1-5. What was the problem the church was facing? Traditionally called Judaizers, those individuals … Continue reading –>

Sabbath: The Jerusalem Council

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 17, 2018 by Sabbath School LessonAugust 22, 2018avatar
Jerusalem Council

Read for This Week’s Study: Acts 15; Gal. 2:11-13; Exod. 12:43-49; Rom. 3:30; Lev. 18:30; Rev. 2:14, Rev. 2:20. Memory Text: “We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are“ (Acts 15:11, NIV). After more than two years, Paul and Barnabas returned to Syrian Antioch. Because the whole church there had been involved in … Continue reading –>
