Lesson 9: August 24-30

‘He shall  … bring all things to your remembrance’

 

5. Before Jesus went back to heaven, where did Jesus command His disciples to go? Mark 16:15.

NOTE: ‘When Jesus ascended to heaven, He committed His work on earth to those who had received the light of the gospel. They were to carry the work forward to completion. He has provided no other agency for the promulgation of His truth. “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” “And, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” This solemn commission reaches us in this age. God leaves with His church the responsibility of receiving or rejecting it.’ Christian Service, page 23.

 

6. For what purpose were they to travel? And what help was promised them? Matthew 28:19-20. John 14:26.

NOTE: ‘Dear brethren, pray as you never before prayed for beams from the Sun of Righteousness to shine upon the Word, that you may be able to understand its true meaning. Jesus pleaded that His disciples might be sanctified through the truth, the Word of God. Then how earnestly should we pray that He who “searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God,” He whose office [work] it is to bring all things to the remembrance of God’s people, and to guide them into all truth, may be with us in the investigation of His Holy Word.’ A Call to Stand Apart, page 70.

‘The disciples were to bear witness to the life and work of Christ. Through their word, He was to speak to all the people on the face of the earth. But in the humiliation and death of Christ, they were to suffer great trial and disappointment that, after this experience, their word might be accurate, Jesus promised that the Comforter should “bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”’ Desire of Ages, page 670.
