The Gift of prophecy: Sabbath School 4th Quarter 2026

 


Sabbath School 4th Quarter - 2026

The Gift of Prophecy

God created us with the ability to hear and understand language, and He also desires to communicate with us. After sin separated humanity from Him, God continued to speak through prophets, ultimately pointing us to Jesus and the hope of salvation.

Prophecy is a gift of the Holy Spirit that reveals God’s truth, guides His people, encourages the church, supports its mission, and calls sinners to repentance. As we study this gift, including the prophetic ministry of Ellen G. White, the central message is simple: God has spoken, and we should listen. Weekly commentaries also will appear below.

False Teachers Identified

Image
  Sabbath School First and Second Corinthians  Dealing With False Teachers Lesson 12 - Tuesday Guarding the Heart Against False Teaching Paul's words in 2 Corinthians 11:1–15 reveal a serious problem in the church at Corinth. False teachers had entered the church and were trying to turn the believers away from the truth Paul had taught them. They presented themselves as impressive spiritual leaders, but their message was not centered on the true Christ. Paul says, “For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:2, NKJV). Paul viewed the believers as people who belonged to Jesus. His concern was not about protecting his personal reputation. He was concerned that the Corinthians would lose their simple and sincere devotion to Christ. Then Paul makes an important comparison. He says, “But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is i...

Spiritual War

Image
Sabbath School First and Second Corinthians  Dealing With False Teachers Lesson 12 - Sunday Gentle, Yet Bold for Christ Paul’s relationship with the believers in Corinth was complicated. He loved them, but he also knew that some serious problems had entered the church. False teachers were questioning Paul’s authority, criticizing his ministry, and trying to turn the believers away from the truth about Christ. What makes 2 Corinthians 10:1–11 especially interesting is that Paul’s critics apparently considered his meekness to be weakness. They saw his gentle approach as evidence that he lacked courage. But Paul was about to make something very clear: meekness is not weakness. Paul writes, “Now I, Paul, myself am pleading with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:1, NKJV). Notice that he does not begin with insults, anger, or threats. He appeals to them through the character of Christ. Yet just a few verses later, we see how courageous he really is. Paul spe...

Sufferings for the Sake of the Gospel

Image
  Sabbath School First and Second Corinthians  Dealing With False Teachers Lesson 12 - Wednesday When Following Jesus Gets Difficult Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians 11:22–28 give us a remarkable picture of what it sometimes cost him to preach the gospel. He reminds the Corinthians that he was a Hebrew, an Israelite, and a descendant of Abraham. But instead of using those credentials to boast about himself, Paul points to something very different—his suffering. He had been beaten, imprisoned, shipwrecked, threatened, hungry, thirsty, cold, and in danger from many different people. He had experienced sleepless nights and difficult journeys. But perhaps one of his greatest burdens was not physical at all. Paul says that besides all these things, he carried the daily concern of the churches. Why does Paul mention all of this? He is making an important point. The false teachers were trying to prove their authority through their accomplishments, status, and impressive claims. Paul ...
