There is no more important question, Agitating the world today than the question of the Sabbath. It is not a mere question of a certain twenty-four hours of the week, but in the question of the Sabbath is involved the worship of the one true God, the power and authority of Christ Jesus our Lord, and our own salvation. The subject cannot.be too thoroughly studied nor too well understood. Other styles of presenting the lesson have suggested themselves, but it is thought best to follow largely the familiar topical lesson of the past. The student cannot be too earnestly urged to do faithful work. in the study of the lessons. It matters not though he may be in a general way familiar with the subject of the Sabbath; he needs to be more than that. He needs to know it in all its various phases, that he may meet the assaults of error. He needs to know Him who is Lord of the Sabbath, and whose power to regenerate and save, the Sabbath commemorates. He needs to know the blessing pronounced upon those, whoever they may be (for God is no respecter of persons), who take hold of God’s covenant and keep the Sabbath from polluting it. Therefore, become familiar with all the lesson texts as early in the week as possible. Talk them over with others, pray over them, meditate upon them, consider what the Lord says, and “the Lord give thee understanding in all things.”
“Our Sabbath-schools are nothing less than Bible societies, and in the sacred work of teaching the truths of God’s Word, they can accomplish far more than they have hitherto accomplished. The Sabbath-school, when rightly managed, possesses marvelous power, and is adapted to doing a great work, but it is not now what it may and should be. The influence growing out of Sabbath-school work should improve and enlarge the church; but in no case should it ever be allowed to divert from the interests of the church. There is a most precious missionary field in the Sabbath-school, and if there are now omens of good, they are only indications and beginnings of what may be done.” TSS 29.1
