Davidic-Levidical Institute

BIBLE DOCTRINES COURSE

Davidic-Levitical Institute

Mt. Carmel Center

Waco, Texas

 

 

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.  Form

b.  Continuity

c.  Clarity

d.  Keeping on the subject

e.  Delivery

f.  Tact

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

message of the hour-is what is to be studied and used. Various supplementary helps may

be good 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 the

instructor shall choose. In assigning the material listed blow it may not be necessary to take

up every 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 Adventist teachings 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

Text: Bible Readings for the Home:

Chapter for the study:

The Bible, Its origin, history, and place in the world

Part I. The bible: how to study and understand it

Part 2. Sin; its origin, results, and remedy

Part 3. The way to Christ

Part 8. The Law of God

Part 9. The Sabbath

Part 11. Life only in Christ

Part 12. Christian Growth and Experience

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.)

earth today are still standing and that k brings this present world to an

end.

times.

13. The Harvest - Matt. 13

Shows the time when the wheat and tares are to be separated.

14. The Truth and the Host Under Foot - Daniel 8

forces at work in this world since its beginning: that Truth will

triumph.

those who, in their own generations, have rejected present Truth."

and the defeat of her enemy, Satan.

18. The Eleventh Hour Call

To bring out the truth of the 11th  hour call (Matt. 20): that there is an

addition to the Third Angel's Message and that the work will be

finished by the laymen.

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

         5. Meeting Opposition

        

              Follow Christ’s example. Be used a different procedure

              with the common people than H~ did with the Scribes sin

              Pharisees.

        

           -28-

 

            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 not ignorant of the Saviour’s 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 first gave them a question to answer.

                 His ministers are to do likewise.

        

                 If you perceive that one is asking you a “trap”

                 question, before you answer his question, first give

                 him a question on some point that is irrefutable.

        

                 Don’t 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; don’t let them

              jump around. Familiarize yourself with a few pertinent

              references and if they can’t see light in one or at the

              most two, don’t waste your time with them.

        

          Examples:   Jer. 30:1—3 (or one of many other definite

                               and specific references on the

                                      Kingdom)

        

                      Isa. 66:15—21
