This quarter’s theme is “Three Cosmic Messages,” studying Revelation 14.
At the heart of Revelation 14 is the everlasting gospel, the good news of God—the good news about himself as being good, and the good news that this good God saves us. But beyond us and our own preoccupations, the gospel is the good news about the character of God presented through demonstration to the entire on-looking universe.
What is the gospel? In the words of Jesus: “I’ve come to bring you life, life full to overflowing.” John 10:10. This invitation comes from the God of life. But we will only respond if we believe in the good intentions of this Savior God—for otherwise why would we trust him, and why would we want to spend eternity with him? It was to reveal God to us that Jesus came: “Jesus called out, ‘If you trust in me you’re not just trusting in me but also in the one who sent me. When you see me you’re seeing the one who sent me.’” “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.” John 12:44, 45; 14:9.
This good news is the gospel or god-spel, the old Anglo-Saxon term that originally meant the God story. Too much and too often the story is about us. Often we don’t tell the right story. It’s time to give up on ourselves, and come back to God. Give up on what we value the most–all the world-foolishness that has invaded our lives and exchange it for the treasure that doesn’t rust or rot.

Speaking at Sligo Church Sabbath School Teachers’ Meeting:
Some of Dr. Gallagher’s articles and books are available here: articles books
Through a free, conversational study of the Scriptures Dr. Jonathan Gallagher invites you to participate in an exciting analysis and discussion of the Sabbath school lesson in the context of the character of God and in the setting of the Great Controversy
This supportive ministry seeks to make the Sabbath school study a relevant and important part of spiritual life by providing actual class discussions in audio format, accompanied by
study sheets. In this way class members become far more involved in discussing vital spiritual issues,particularly focusing on the nature and character of God in the setting of the Great Controversy. By centering the focus on a ‘free, conversational study of the Scriptures,’ Sabbath School On The Move contributes to both the growth and development of individual members and also a wider and more dynamic involvement in the fundamental message and mission of the church.
Recorded at different locations and also online, Sabbath School On The Move is made available free via the Internet to all, providing a rich resource for those teaching the lesson as well as those wishing to be more deeply informed about the subjects presented by the lesson. It is particularly useful to those who for various reasons are not able to attend Sabbath school in person, and provides a “virtual community” to members who can then experience the sense of belonging and participating in the wider church around the world.
