Current Adult Sabbath School Lesson:
Haverhill Sabbath School Class
Sabbath school classes are the heartbeat of our church community. Each week we spend time learning from Scripture and from each other. The adult Sabbath School class is led by Dr. Ken McNulty using PowerPoint presentations to help students understand the information of the lesson and help focus discussion that will apply important biblical truths from the lesson to our lives.
Our Sabbath school fellowship begins at 11:00 a.m. Children’s classes begin immediately while adult Sabbath school opens with a short program in the sanctuary which can consist of singing, inspirational thoughts, mission stories, and special features. After the opening program, the adult class is taught in the sanctuary beginning at about 11:15 am.
The adult Sabbath School lessons are prepared by the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, usually by one of the scholars or theologians of the church. These lessons are published in the Adult Sabbath School Bible Study Guide which is published quarterly and provided free to each student. To study online, click the link in the previous sentence.
This quarter our Study Guide is entitled “The Gift of Prophecy.” In writing his second epistle, the apostle Peter penned these words: “We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” (2 Peter 1:19-21 KJV) God used human agents inspired by the Holy Spirit to communicate to our fallen race the truth about God and His plans for our redemption. The essence of His self-revelation, His declarations of right and wrong, His acts in the history of the affairs of men, His plan for the defeat of sin, His offer for forgiveness and eternal life in Christ, His will for our lives, is captured in the 66 books of the Bible that He inspired men to write. Join us this quarter as we study the gift of prophecy, how it differed in Old and New Testament times, and how prophecy should be regarded today.
