Hello brethren and sisters! Our upcoming Sabbath school lessons for the second half of 2022 are now available! You are once again invited to print your own for your respective localities. The subject that will direct these six last months is: Lessons on the Voice From Heaven. Heavily prophetical and spiritual at the same time, these lessons portray to us the intelligent, biblical understanding of that other voice from heaven, spoken of in Revelation chapter 18, verse 4, that movement once described by Uriah Smith as the fifth celestial messenger, along with its extended array of connected ramifications.

Introduction

THE design of our Sabbath school lessons for the next six months is to come to an understanding of the identity of that “another voice from heaven” in Revelation eighteen, verse four. The three angels’ messages of Revelation fourteen and that other angel of Revelation eighteen are to be heard upon earth. How are they heard, and how is that other voice from heaven heard on earth—this will be our study.

In this first section, a voice from heaven will be examined as revealed at Christ’s baptism and transfiguration. We will study closely how that voice may be heard by every true follower of Jesus as a witness upon earth. We will clearly learn that voice to be none other than that of the Holy Spirit. As we proceed through this section, we will enter into an in-depth study of the Holy Spirit, as we are admonished to do by the Spirit of Prophecy in the following words:

“Wherever the need of the Holy Spirit is a matter little thought of, there is seen spiritual drought, spiritual darkness, spiritual declension and death. Whenever minor matters occupy the attention, the divine power which is necessary for the growth and prosperity of the church, and which would bring all other blessings in its train, is lacking, though offered in infinite plenitude.

“Since this is the means by which we are to receive power, why do we not hunger and thirst for the gift of the Spirit? Why do we not talk of it, pray for it, and preach concerning it?” —The Acts of the Apostles, p. 50.

Let us indeed enter into an in-depth engagement with the Holy Spirit during this lesson study, and thus be led into the second section and truly comprehend how the voice of the Holy Spirit from heaven can be heard on earth via the channel of God’s true people.
