Welcome

Many Sabbath School class teachers either preach a sermon to their class or deliver a monologue on the whole lesson, going through it "day-by-day." The most rewarding sessions involve the members in discussion. These questions here are intended to stimulate the active participation of the members in your class. Of course pertinent information imparted by the teacher is also very valuable, for which there are many resources in print and on the internet. This site seeks to provide a resource for discussions.

If you are a member and not a teacher and your class is boring, try asking questions such as these in your class.

Lesson 4 (Jan 16-22, 2020), The Hard Way

 Prophecy Fulfilled

  1. Why do you think didn't Isaiah say plainly that the two kings would die within two years instead of mentioning a child being old enough to choose between right and wrong?
  2. What kind of diet is curd and honey? What does it say of the conditions?
  3. Is the prophecy of the end of Israel, the northern kingdom, merely predicting the future or is it showing punishment from God?
Foreseen Consequences
  1. Why is it more difficult to trust God than a political power?
  2. Is it always wrong to ally with another nation?
  3. What makes a king trust false gods more than the living God, to the point where he could sacrifice his own son in the fire?
What's in a Name
  1. How important is the meaning of a name when choosing one for a newborn baby?
  2. Why are some children given two names?
  3. Would the prophet really give his sons weird names or were they just for illustration?
Nothing to Fear When We Fear God Himself
  1. What if any any useful purpose does fear have? What happens to be people who have no fear?
  2. What is the difference between "Fear of the Lord," and being afraid of God like Adam in the Garden of Eden?
  3. In what sense does love cast out fear?
Gloom of the Ungrateful Living Dead
  1. How important is it what happens to our dead body, whether buried, or cremated, and where it might be carried out?
  2. Why does the devil usually bring those who surrender to him, to a tragic end? Wouldn't it be better for him to attract people by giving them a happy life and peaceful death?
  3. What are ways in which one can be careless in giving the devil power to take over our lives?
