    Note to Instructor

    1. The purpose of each class;a. Freshman classis designed for those who need to gain a

    foundation of fundamental Seventh-day Adventist doctrines. For

    those who need it or may wish to take it as a refresher course.

    b. Intermediate class for those who need to learn the Davidian

    doctrines and how to present them.

    c. Senior class for those who already know the message, but who need

    special Instructions for fieldwork, ect. It is also for those who require

    help only in organizing and giving studies and who are assigned to

    intermediate class for a few weeks to learn this phase after which they

    will be transferred to the senior class. For this reason the senior

    class will start at a later date than March. 9

    2. It is important that each student keep his notebook up to date. The

    instructor is to check on this daily when the roll call is taken.

    3. Class periods are for students' recitation and the teacher's

    constructive criticism and are not to be taken up in lecturing to the

    students; studying is to be done outside of class. Students are not to be

    told ahead who is to recite at the next class period.

    4. The instructor is to correct the students on the following:

    a. Formb. Continuity

    c. Clarity

    d. Keeping on the subject

    e. Delivery

    f. Tact

    5. Except as indicated in no. 6, the material in the Davidian

    but are unnecessary. (A list of the Spirit of Prophecy books most

    quoted is present Truth Literature is giving in Part 3. If the present

    truth student becomes volumes he will be well armed.)

    6. Following is a list of chapters from the Bible Reading to be covered

    in the Freshman Class. The students are to study and be prepared for

    either oral or written quizzes in class an theinstructor shall choose. In

    assigning the material listed blow it may not be necessary to take upevery topic or question in the chapters listed, at least not in class, but

    only as much as will assure a through understanding of the subject

    under discussion. Those Seventh-day Adventist doctrines which have

    been especially amplified by present truth, and which are therefore

    included in the Intermediate class, have been omitted from the

    Freshman Class. (However, when such subjects are studied in the

    Intermediate Class, if a student is not familiar with Seventh-day

    Adventist teaching of them, he might profitably study them from Bible

    readings in connection with present truth, so that he might know

    wherein the Davidian message differs from Seventh-day Adventistteachings as well as to acquire a foundation in fundamental

    Seventh-day Adventist doctrines. The Instructor should be prepare to

    point out to the students what is erroneous and why.)

    Freshman Class:

    7. Keep on the Subject.

    It is impossible to divorce some present Truth subject from others and

    therefore there is much overlapping of material. In studying one

    particular subject it is often necessary to refer to another; however,when such is the case, it is important to stick with what the text

    material says on the subject being studied. The related doctrines will

    each be studied in detail in the turn.

    Example:

    Subject: Religion

    Text Material: Timely Greetings, Vol. 2 #34

    (In the studying this article it would be easy to get into a discussion of

    the Kingdom but that is not the subject being studied.)

    --Educational Director

    iii

    a. With the common people He wee over gentle and pa-tient; He never condemned them, but kindly painted out the way of

    salvation.

    b. It was another story with the Scribes and rulers; they were notignorant of the Saviours work and mission and their questions were

    for the most part merely traps. With them Christ was plain and even

    cutting at times. Rather than answering their trap questions He firstgave them a question to answer. His ministers are to do likewise.

    If you perceive that one is asking you a trapquestion, before youanswer his question, first give him a question on some point that is

    irrefutable.

    Dont be discourteous, but neither let them make you appear foolish.

    In dealing with those who are opposed, and especially

    the ministers, hold them to one point; dont let themjump around. Familiarize yourself with a few pertinent

    references and if they cant see light in one or at the

    most two, dont waste your time with them.

    Examples: Jer. 30:13 (or one of many other definite

    and specific references on the Kingdom)

    Isa. 66:1521

    CONTROVERSIAL PASSAGES

    1. Early Writings, p. 36Four winds will held until Jesus' work is done in the sanctuary, and

    then come the 7 last plagues.

    2. Early Writings, pp. 15, 16During the 7th plague, or when the day and hour of Christ's coming is

    announced. Sister White seems to state the living saints will number

    144.000. (These people around here think that the nations will be

    killed during the Loud Cry and the time of Trouble, leaving only the

    144,000. These are the nations converted to the truth by the 144,000,

    but slain to rise later at Christ's coming.)

    3. Great Controversy, p. 649Applies Revelation 7:13, 14 to the 144,000

    4. Great Controversy, p. 637

    Places the resurrection of Daniel 12:2 in the 7'h plague.

    5. Early Writings, p. 36, 37Places the time of Jacob's Trouble during the pouring out of the 7'h last

    plague.

    6. Great Controversy, p. 613Time of Trouble takes place after the close of probation.

    (But see Early Writings, p. 85)

    7. Great Controversy, p. 656, Testimonies, Vol. 5, pp. 207, 208Apply Ezekiel 9 to the "general destruction of the wicked."

    Therefore Ezekiel 9 is after the close of probation.
