Turning GenZers into Radical (OK, Boomer!)
Why Don’t We Invite People Home Anymore?
21 February 2020 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, Back when I was a child, and even after I began raising my family, it was common to bring people home after church for Sabbath dinner. Our church has potluck meals in the fellowship hall once a month, but no one invites anyone home anymore, and when I […] Source: https://atoday.org/why-dont-we-invite-people-home-anymore/
Hide or Seek

Sabbath: From Contamination to Purification

Read for This Week’s Study: Daniel 8:1-27, Dan. 2:38, Gen. 11:4, Leviticus 16:1-34, Dan. 2:38, Heb. 9:23-28.
Memory Text: “And he said to me, ‘For two thousand three hundred days; then the sanctuary shall be cleansed’” (Daniel 8:14, NKJV).
The vision reported in Daniel chapter 8 was given to the prophet in 548/547 B.C., and it provides some significant clarifications about the judgment referred to in Daniel 7. Unlike the visions of Daniel chapters 2 and 7, the vision of Daniel chapter 8 leaves out Babylon and starts with Media-Persia, because at this time Babylon was in decline and the Persians were about to replace Babylon as the next world power. The vision of Daniel chapter 8 parallels that of Daniel chapter 7. The language and the symbols change in Daniel chapter 8 because it brings into sharp focus the purification of the heavenly sanctuary in connection with the heavenly Day of Atonement. Thus the distinctive contribution of Daniel chapter 8 lies in its focus on aspects of the heavenly sanctuary. Whereas Daniel chapter 7 shows the heavenly tribunal and the Son of man receiving the kingdom, Daniel chapter 8 shows the purification of the heavenly sanctuary. So as the parallels between these two chapters indicate, the purification of the heavenly sanctuary depicted in Daniel 8 corresponds to the judgment scene of Daniel chapter 7.
Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, February 29.
Amen!
