Revelation u ia Is the passage
of Scripture selected for devotional
reading. Instead Of attempting to re-
view the lessons of the quarter it
would be Of great interest and profit
to enter into detailed study Of this
Scripture. The following outline may
be helpful. |. The New Heaven and
the New Earth wv. l, y; IL. The New
People wv. 3-S); III, The New Jeru-
salem wv. 9-14).
Another way would be to assign the
Golden Texts to different members Of
the class asking them to give the part
Of the particular lesson which illus.
trates the teachings of the text.
Still another way would be to sum-
Marie the different Scripture pass
ages, giving the leading lessons Of
each. The following is given by way
Of suggestion
!. The believers supreme obliga-
ton is to present himself as a living
sacrifice to God The grand reason
Tor so doing Is that he has received
the merces of God. The one so yield
ed will love his fellow believer sin
cerely.
II. The believers body IS Gods
property-the temple of the Holy
Ghost; therefore we are under solemn
obligation to use 1t for His glory.
~. Since God the Father and
Jesus Christ work, 1t Is incumbent
upon all to work, and the man who
will not work should not eat.
~. God hates the greed that moves
men to dishonest methods in order to
get rich. His judgment shall fall upon
such.
v. True education will lead one to
Christ. The one only book which tells
about him Is the Bible. No one can
call himself educated who is ignorant
Of the Bible.
VI. God rested when His work Of
creation was done. On this basis He
has established the law of labor and
rest. The obligation to cease from la
Dor Is that one may remember God.
WI. The church Is an organism as
the human body In order that there
may be real helpful cooperation there
must be membership in that body.
VIII. Jesus should be welcomed as
a guest into every home. He is an ex-
ample Of an obedlent son In the home.
TX. The most important question Is
not "Who is my neighbour" but ITO
whom can l be neighbour" Being
a neighbor Is seeing those about who
need help and rendering such help in
loving sympathy.
X. The Christian Is citizen as well
IA church member. Intelligent Chris
tans will show proper loyalty to the
state.
XII. When Christ shall reign as
King there shall he peace all over the
world between animals AMI men. The
supreme business of the believer In
this dlspensation is to preach the COS
pei to all the world as witness.
XII. Jesus came and preached the
gospel to the poor, but shall come
again to judge the world and reign as
King.
Since the whole Of mans duty Is
summed up by Christ in duty to God
and duty to man Matt 90 :36-40), II
would be profitable TO go through the
quarters lesson and set down the
teachings under
l. Duties to God; II. Duties to Man.
