This quarter we’re looking at Preparation for the End Time.
While it’s all too easy to get caught up the the imagery–the beasts and the end time scenarios–the key point in our quarter’s study is how God resolves the Great Controversy. The great controversy is all about God and who he is, and our praise and joy comes from finding out God is not the kind of person the Devil has described, but that he is the source of all that is good and true and loving—revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. The issues in the great controversy don’t center on the supremacy of God’s power, but on how he uses it. Lucifer’s rebellion is a grab for power without responsibility. The heart of his rebellion is to believe his way better than God’s. So God is identified as the tyrant and is charged with all kinds of evil. Right becomes wrong, and wrong becomes right in this nightmare scenario that is the negative of God’s good creation.
This quarter we see the ways in which God brings this to an end, demonstrating that he really is trustworthy and true, our loving Lord.

Sabbath School on the Move meetings in progress
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.
