Lesson 7: Motivated by Hope

This week on Hope Sabbath School, as we continue our series Prophets of God, we'll explore Revelation and Inspiration. We'll discover how God reveals Himself through nature, through the special messages He gave to His prophets, and most clearly through Jesus Christ. Join us as we explore how God speaks to us and what His revelation means for our lives today on Hope Sabbath School.

"This week on Hope Sabbath School, **New Testament Prophets**. Who was the greatest New Testament prophet? Jesus, of course. But God also called others to share His prophetic message and strengthen the early Christian church as believers grew in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Join us as we explore the role of New Testament prophets this week on Hope Sabbath School."

"This week on Hope Sabbath School, *Old Testament Prophets*. Before the coming of Jesus, God called prophets to point His people to the promised Messiah. They were ordinary men and women—not perfect people—but God entrusted them with a perfect message. Join us as we discover what we can learn from the Old Testament prophets and the message God has for our lives today on Hope Sabbath School."

Should a belief about the future transform the way we treat people today? Historians Dr. Kevin Burton and Philip Warfield explore how Christians who expected Christ's soon return became leaders in the abolitionist movement, championing equality and opposing slavery because they believed every person was precious to God.
