{{/requirement 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;font face=&amp;quot;mono&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|-&lt;br /&gt;
|the sea, and gathered of every ''k'' ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 13:47 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Howbeit, this ''k'' goeth not out but ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 17:21 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|This ''k'' can come forth by nothing ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mk 9:29&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|for he is ''k'' unto the unthankful ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Lk 6:35&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 5543&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In each case, ''k'' is substituted for ''kind'' to make the entries a little shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Now use it!=== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Now that you know how to use a concordance, select two topics and find them in a concordance. Here are some suggestions:&lt;br /&gt;
*Baptism (baptize, baptized)&lt;br /&gt;
*Faith (faithful, belief, believe, believed, believes)&lt;br /&gt;
*Salvation (saved, save, redeem, redeemed, redeems)&lt;br /&gt;
*Obedience (obey, obeys, obeyed, obedient)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Don't be limited by this list though. There are thousands upon thousands of things you might want to research.&lt;br /&gt;

You can read about many of these people on Wikipedia, or in the SDA Encyclopedia (part of the Bible Commentary series- online at https://encyclopedia.adventist.org/). There are many books written by or about missionaries and their experiences. Check your Adventist church or Adventist school library or an Adventist Book Center for books about missions in the stated time period.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--Make a presentation about your favorite missionary.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can use the map created in the previous section as a visual aid for this. Ideally, the presentation should be made to the other members of your Pathfinder club during the club's normal worship/devotional time. If your Explorer group is small, have each individual present a different missionary. If it's large, have them present in teams of two or three.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Have the Pathfinders create a Presentation with the following elements (or something similar):'''&lt;br /&gt;
*Names and Field of service&lt;br /&gt;
*A map of the area they did mission work in (google images)&lt;br /&gt;
*Dates of service&lt;br /&gt;
*Role/jobs&lt;br /&gt;
*Their motivation (why they became a missionary) &lt;br /&gt;
*An interesting “sample story” that you can tell us&lt;br /&gt;
*Photo(s) of the missionary (usually available for this list)&lt;br /&gt;
*Statement whether you believe their mission work was a success (or why you believe it wasn’t)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:21--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Another way to make the presentation is by performing a skit based on factual events during the missionary's service.&lt;br /&gt;

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

22 News of this reached the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23 When he arrived and saw what the grace of God had done, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. 24 He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;

::*1940: 504,752 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1950: 756,812 members &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

===Abuse=== &amp;lt;!--T:50--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Remember that the topic of abuse may hit very close to home for some Pathfinders, and it is important to treat the subject carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Reading=== &amp;lt;!--T:58--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:59--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Talk about what appropriate reading material for a Christian is. Questions to consider...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does the message improve your walk with God? Should everything you read be measured against this test?&lt;br /&gt;
'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
While this sounds like a good test, it is impractical. How does reading your math book or the local newspaper improve your walk with God? This leads to a negative test; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does reading this damage my mind or harm my walk with God?'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
With this test, you can now weed out what is harmful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Should we stick to non-fiction or is there a place for reading fiction or even fantasy?''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are many examples of quality, yet fictional, stories that teach lessons and make for worthwhile reading: &lt;br /&gt;

{{/requirement 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;font face=&amp;quot;mono&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;

! Verse &lt;br /&gt;
! Dict. entry&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|the sea, and gathered of every ''k'' ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 13:47 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Howbeit, this ''k'' goeth not out but ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 17:21 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|This ''k'' can come forth by nothing ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mk 9:29&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|for he is ''k'' unto the unthankful ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Lk 6:35&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 5543&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In each case, ''k'' is substituted for ''kind'' to make the entries a little shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Now use it!=== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Now that you know how to use a concordance, select two topics and find them in a concordance. Here are some suggestions:&lt;br /&gt;
*Baptism (baptize, baptized)&lt;br /&gt;
*Faith (faithful, belief, believe, believed, believes)&lt;br /&gt;
*Salvation (saved, save, redeem, redeemed, redeems)&lt;br /&gt;
*Obedience (obey, obeys, obeyed, obedient)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Don't be limited by this list though. There are thousands upon thousands of things you might want to research.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Key Growth Data (1900–1950)&lt;br /&gt;
::*1900: 75,767 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1910: 104,526 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1920: 185,450 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1930: 314,253 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1940: 504,752 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1950: 756,812 members &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

===Abuse=== &amp;lt;!--T:50--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Remember that the topic of abuse may hit very close to home for some Pathfinders, and it is important to treat the subject carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:59--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does the message improve your walk with God? Should everything you read be measured against this test?&lt;br /&gt;
'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
While this sounds like a good test, it is impractical. How does reading your math book or the local newspaper improve your walk with God? This leads to a negative test; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does reading this damage my mind or harm my walk with God?'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
With this test, you can now weed out what is harmful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Should we stick to non-fiction or is there a place for reading fiction or even fantasy?''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are many examples of quality, yet fictional, stories that teach lessons and make for worthwhile reading: &lt;br /&gt;

{{/requirement 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 13:47 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Howbeit, this ''k'' goeth not out but ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 17:21 &lt;br /&gt;

|-&lt;br /&gt;
|This ''k'' can come forth by nothing ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mk 9:29&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|for he is ''k'' unto the unthankful ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Lk 6:35&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 5543&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In each case, ''k'' is substituted for ''kind'' to make the entries a little shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Now use it!=== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Now that you know how to use a concordance, select two topics and find them in a concordance. Here are some suggestions:&lt;br /&gt;
*Baptism (baptize, baptized)&lt;br /&gt;
*Faith (faithful, belief, believe, believed, believes)&lt;br /&gt;
*Salvation (saved, save, redeem, redeemed, redeems)&lt;br /&gt;
*Obedience (obey, obeys, obeyed, obedient)&lt;br /&gt;

You can use the map created in the previous section as a visual aid for this. Ideally, the presentation should be made to the other members of your Pathfinder club during the club's normal worship/devotional time. If your Explorer group is small, have each individual present a different missionary. If it's large, have them present in teams of two or three.&lt;br /&gt;

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Key Growth Data (1900–1950)&lt;br /&gt;
::*1900: 75,767 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1910: 104,526 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1920: 185,450 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1930: 314,253 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1940: 504,752 members&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

===Abuse=== &amp;lt;!--T:50--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Remember that the topic of abuse may hit very close to home for some Pathfinders, and it is important to treat the subject carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;

:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

There are many examples of quality, yet fictional, stories that teach lessons and make for worthwhile reading: &lt;br /&gt;

{{/requirement 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;font face=&amp;quot;mono&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
!Context || &lt;br /&gt;
! Verse &lt;br /&gt;
! Dict. entry&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|the sea, and gathered of every ''k'' ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 13:47 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Howbeit, this ''k'' goeth not out but ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 17:21 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|This ''k'' can come forth by nothing ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mk 9:29&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|for he is ''k'' unto the unthankful ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Lk 6:35&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 5543&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In each case, ''k'' is substituted for ''kind'' to make the entries a little shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Now use it!=== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Now that you know how to use a concordance, select two topics and find them in a concordance. Here are some suggestions:&lt;br /&gt;
*Baptism (baptize, baptized)&lt;br /&gt;
*Faith (faithful, belief, believe, believed, believes)&lt;br /&gt;
*Salvation (saved, save, redeem, redeemed, redeems)&lt;br /&gt;
*Obedience (obey, obeys, obeyed, obedient)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Don't be limited by this list though. There are thousands upon thousands of things you might want to research.&lt;br /&gt;

You can use the map created in the previous section as a visual aid for this. Ideally, the presentation should be made to the other members of your Pathfinder club during the club's normal worship/devotional time. If your Explorer group is small, have each individual present a different missionary. If it's large, have them present in teams of two or three.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:21--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Another way to make the presentation is by performing a skit based on factual events during the missionary's service.&lt;br /&gt;

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D.

The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Key Growth Data (1900–1950)&lt;br /&gt;
::*1900: 75,767 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1910: 104,526 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1920: 185,450 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1930: 314,253 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1940: 504,752 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1950: 756,812 members &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

===Abuse=== &amp;lt;!--T:50--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Remember that the topic of abuse may hit very close to home for some Pathfinders, and it is important to treat the subject carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does the message improve your walk with God? Should everything you read be measured against this test?&lt;br /&gt;
'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
While this sounds like a good test, it is impractical. How does reading your math book or the local newspaper improve your walk with God? This leads to a negative test; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does reading this damage my mind or harm my walk with God?'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
With this test, you can now weed out what is harmful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Should we stick to non-fiction or is there a place for reading fiction or even fantasy?''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are many examples of quality, yet fictional, stories that teach lessons and make for worthwhile reading: &lt;br /&gt;

{{/requirement 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;font face=&amp;quot;mono&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
!Context || &lt;br /&gt;
! Verse &lt;br /&gt;
! Dict. entry&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|the sea, and gathered of every ''k'' ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 13:47 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Howbeit, this ''k'' goeth not out but ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mt 17:21 &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|This ''k'' can come forth by nothing ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Mk 9:29&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 1085&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|for he is ''k'' unto the unthankful ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Lk 6:35&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 5543&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In each case, ''k'' is substituted for ''kind'' to make the entries a little shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Now use it!=== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Now that you know how to use a concordance, select two topics and find them in a concordance. Here are some suggestions:&lt;br /&gt;
*Baptism (baptize, baptized)&lt;br /&gt;
*Faith (faithful, belief, believe, believed, believes)&lt;br /&gt;
*Salvation (saved, save, redeem, redeemed, redeems)&lt;br /&gt;
*Obedience (obey, obeys, obeyed, obedient)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Don't be limited by this list though. There are thousands upon thousands of things you might want to research.&lt;br /&gt;

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Key Growth Data (1900–1950)&lt;br /&gt;
::*1900: 75,767 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1910: 104,526 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1920: 185,450 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1930: 314,253 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1940: 504,752 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1950: 756,812 members &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

===Abuse=== &amp;lt;!--T:50--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Remember that the topic of abuse may hit very close to home for some Pathfinders, and it is important to treat the subject carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Does reading this damage my mind or harm my walk with God?'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
With this test, you can now weed out what is harmful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Should we stick to non-fiction or is there a place for reading fiction or even fantasy?''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

{{/requirement 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;

|Howbeit, this ''k'' goeth not out but ||&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;

|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| Lk 6:35&lt;br /&gt;
|align=&amp;quot;center&amp;quot;| 5543&lt;br /&gt;

|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In each case, ''k'' is substituted for ''kind'' to make the entries a little shorter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Now use it!=== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Now that you know how to use a concordance, select two topics and find them in a concordance. Here are some suggestions:&lt;br /&gt;
*Baptism (baptize, baptized)&lt;br /&gt;
*Faith (faithful, belief, believe, believed, believes)&lt;br /&gt;
*Salvation (saved, save, redeem, redeemed, redeems)&lt;br /&gt;
*Obedience (obey, obeys, obeyed, obedient)&lt;br /&gt;

You can read about many of these people on Wikipedia, or in the SDA Encyclopedia (part of the Bible Commentary series). There are many books written by or about missionaries and their experiences. Check your Adventist church or Adventist school library or an Adventist Book Center for books about missions in the stated time period.&lt;br /&gt;

You can use the map created in the previous section as a visual aid for this. Ideally, the presentation should be made to the other members of your Pathfinder club during the club's normal worship/devotional time.

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Key Growth Data (1900–1950)&lt;br /&gt;
::*1900: 75,767 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1910: 104,526 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1920: 185,450 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1930: 314,253 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1940: 504,752 members&lt;br /&gt;
::*1950: 756,812 members &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

===Abuse=== &amp;lt;!--T:50--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Remember that the topic of abuse may hit very close to home for some Pathfinders, and it is important to treat the subject carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

'''Does reading this damage my mind or harm my walk with God?'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
With this test, you can now weed out what is harmful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Should we stick to non-fiction or is there a place for reading fiction or even fantasy?''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--Learn how to use a Bible Concordance by selecting two topics and/or words to discover how it is used in the Bible.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Main Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:1--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A concordance is an alphabetic list of words that appear in the Bible, and where in the Bible each word listed can be found. An ''exhaustive'' concordance is an alphabetic list of ''every'' word (including &amp;quot;a&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; etc. that appears in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this, it is easy to figure out the basic use of a concordance. Simply look up the word you are interested in, and then see where it appears in the Bible. Most concordances will also supply a little context - that is, the phrase in which the word appears. This is very useful and will help you find a passage that relates to your research without having to look up the reference in the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dictionary Entries=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some concordances also incorporate an original language dictionary, defining all of the words as they appear in the original manuscripts (in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). Further, each entry in this dictionary is numbered, and the number appears in the main section of the concordance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To understand how useful this is, consider the Greek words ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and ''γενος'' (genos). The first word means, &amp;quot;generous, considerate, or kind&amp;quot; and the second means &amp;quot;type, category, or kind.&amp;quot; Both appear under the word &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; in the concordance but the dictionary number gives some extra valuable information to the Bible student.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If we were interested in the word &amp;quot;kind,&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;generous&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;kind&amp;quot; as in &amp;quot;type&amp;quot; it's easy to tell them apart by looking at the dictionary number. From Strong's we have this:&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

It's easier to find the &amp;quot;generous kind&amp;quot; by looking in the number column than by reading the context of each verse. 5543 is ''χρηστος'' (chrestos) and 1085 is ''γενος'' (genos). We can quickly eliminate the &amp;quot;type kind&amp;quot; from our search and concentrate on the &amp;quot;generous kind.&amp;quot; You can also easily see all the texts that use the same Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic word in the Bible, allowing an easy word study.&lt;br /&gt;

Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

==Compare Acts Church to the Missionary Expansion of the Seventh-day Adventist Church up to 1950== &amp;lt;!--T:37--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:38--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are a number of parallels between the growth of the early Christian Church and the development of the the Seventh-day Adventist Church. These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:39--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. While the Christian Church developed out of the Jewish faith as a logical extension of the older religion, the early Adventists initially came out of various established Christian churches. The Millerites were nearly all Christians already, as the earliest Christians were nearly all Jews (born or converts) already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:40--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. Many of the early Adventist ministers and leaders had served in other Christian churches before becoming Adventist Christians. Acts 6:7 tells us &amp;quot;a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:41--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. Christians worshipped in Jewish synagogues and the temple until they either were forced out by Jews who rejected Jesus or chose to leave because they were unwelcome. Adventists worshiped within existing churches until they were disfellowshipped or otherwise made to feel unwelcome. For example, as a teenager Ellen G Harman (later White), her family and others were disfellowshipped from the Portland (Maine) Methodist Church for believing in the teachings of William Miller prior to 1844. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:42--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. After a period of focus on Jews, the early Christians turned to evangelizing the Gentiles (those without a Jewish belief system). Adventists started within existing Christian groups but quite early on Adventists were sending missionaries to non-Christian lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:43--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. Early Christians struggled with cross cultural issues {{Bible link| Acts 15}} as did Adventists as members joined from around the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:44--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Christians quickly spread out across the known world, deliberately sending missionaries to new regions. Acts mentions believers and churches from modern Spain, Ethiopia, Libya, Italy, Greece, up into Macedonia, Turkey, and even suggests Arabia. Outside the Bible there is a strong tradition that early Christianity spread even further. The disciple Thomas is credited with establishing churches as far away as Southern India. Adventists, from a base in New England, New York and Michigan quickly spread across North America while sending missionaries to the ends of the earth by 1950. Today Adventists can be found in nearly every country and territory in the world, and it is much easier to [http://www.infobarrel.com/Where_Seventh-day_Adventists_Are_Not note the exceptions], mainly very low population places (Falkland Islands, Tokelau), constant war zones (Afghanistan, Somalia) and a handful of places with tight control on religion (Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Bhutan). Even some of the places without an Adventist church have active missionaries working there, so the list continues to shrink. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:45--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Sacrificial giving was reported in Acts and in the Adventist Church. Barnabas sold a field he owned, and other Christians also sold real estate. Adventists followed the example of early Christians in this area too. For example, in 1850 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Edson Hiram Edson] sold his Port Gibson, NY farm to help support the Sabbatarian movement, and sold a second farm two years later in Port Byron, NY so that James White could purchase a printing press in Rochester.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:46--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
8. The experience of Hiram Edson immediately following the Great Disappointment is very similar to the experience of two disciples on their journey to Emmaus as recounted in {{Bible link|Luke 24:13-27}}.&lt;br /&gt;
{{bquote|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:47--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We started, and while passing through a large field I was stopped about midway of the field. Heaven seemed opened to my view, and I saw distinctly and clearly that instead of our High Priest coming out of the Most Holy of the heavenly sanctuary to come to this earth on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the end of the 2300 days, He for the first time entered on that day the second apartment of that sanctuary; and that He had a work to perform in the Most Holy Place before coming to the earth.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book | author = [[w:Francis D. Nichol|F. D. Nichol]] | title = The Midnight Cry | page = 458 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
In both cases, God intervened to directly reveal what really happened when faithful people experienced incredible disappointment after having misinterpreted prophetic events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:48--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced significant, consistent growth between 1900 and 1950, with global membership increasing roughly tenfold during this period. The church grew from approximately 75,767 members at the end of 1900 to 756,812 members by the end of 1950. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

'''Drivers and Context of Growth'''&lt;br /&gt;
'''Rapid Expansion:''' During the first half of the 20th century, the church grew faster than the general population, marking a significant rise in its global footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
'''International Focus:''' The church expanded beyond its North American base, with 1921 marking the year that membership outside of North America exceeded that within.&lt;br /&gt;
'''Missionary Work:''' Between 1901 and 1960, the church sent out 9,150 missionaries, helping to establish a global presence.&lt;br /&gt;
'''Institutional Growth:''' By 1950, the church had built a robust network, including numerous schools and publishing houses that fueled missionary efforts.&lt;br /&gt;
'''Consistency:''' Despite the Great Depression and two World Wars, the church maintained a steady growth rate, often growing between 3% and 7% annually during these decades. &lt;br /&gt;
By 1945, the church had reached a milestone of over 570,000 members, with substantial numbers in South America and the Inter-American division. &lt;br /&gt;

Substance abuse / [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Temperance| temperance]] is a topic well covered within the Pathfinder program, so perhaps fulfilling this requirement should focus on other types of abuse. Adventist Church owned presses have started to put out some good material on dealing with relationship, physical and [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html sexual abuse], subjects too long ignored and suppressed in the the church. &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This inexpensive little 48 page booklet [http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/understanding-sexual-abuse.html Understanding Sexual Abuse] should be a good conversation starter for a sensitive topic.&lt;br /&gt;

===TV and Movies=== &amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:54--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What you fill your mind with is what you will become. Violent content, obscene language, and sexual content are not what a Christian should be watching. Violence and sex are parts of life (the Bible contains much violence for example) but glorifying violence and sex for our own entertainment was not God's plan for us. Pathfinders will quickly agree that violent content should be avoided, but is there a place for violence in film? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A wildly popular, but hugely controversial movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySknA_zoKoQ The Passion of the Christ] by Mel Gibson would be worth talking about. (The link goes to the crucifixion scene - watch it with the group) Much of the dialog in the movie is direct Bible quotations, yet the violence shown in the film is far beyond the typical Hollywood shoot-em-up movie. While The Passion is controversial, it helps viewers understand how great a sacrifice Christ made for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:56--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, how would you tell the story of David and Goliath, Steven's stoning, or the plagues of Egypt without showing violence? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:57--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obscene and sexual content is a much more clear cut no no. There is no reason for a Pathfinder, who is trying to keep a level eye, to watch dirty films or filth on TV.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some Pathfinders may jump to condemning fiction and fantasy works completely. Ellen White condemned fiction many times, but we need to understand how she ''defined'' fiction before we impose our modern understanding of the word on her negative statements. She used the term ''fiction'' to apply to works with the following characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*It is addictive.&lt;br /&gt;
*It may be sentimental, or sensational, erotic, profane, or trashy.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is escapist, causing the reader to revert to a dream world and to be less able to cope with the problems of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It unfits the mind for serious study, and devotional life.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is time consuming and valueless.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 8. Give examples of early modes of transportation and the length of time it took for early missionaries to reach the places they intended to go. What supplies and resources were needed for their trip? What did they bring or not bring? Pretend you were a missionary during the early Adventist missionary period and create a presentation of a missionary location you would travel to, what kind of transportation you would use to get there, a map of the route you would take to travel there, how long it might take, and a packing list of what you would need to take. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Walking, animal transport, boat, and train were the travel methods available to the early Adventist Missionaries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The map can be a modern map (early maps are harder to find), and can use modern roads/tracks since historical records of roads and train routes might be hard to find. Fortunately, most roads (at least in the USA) are on the same location (or close) to ancient native american trails, and most railways are on the same rail beds as the original tracks of the early 1800’s.&lt;br /&gt;

Participate in a debate regarding the advantages and disadvantages of self-supporting versus sponsored missions. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Debate means you will need at least two teams. Each team should choose a side (self-supporting or sponsored) then list the advantages and disadvantages of THAT side. They should write / practice a statement emphasizing the advantages of their chosen side. Using a search engine and online student videos, work to use methods common to student debate clubs&lt;br /&gt;

Format:&lt;br /&gt;
* Opening Arguments&lt;br /&gt;
* Rebuttals&lt;br /&gt;
* Closing Remarks&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Basic debate rules:&lt;br /&gt;
# Teams cannot switch their point of view. Stay focused on defending and articulating the value of your chosen side&lt;br /&gt;
# Make sure all team members are involved in research and debate.&lt;br /&gt;
# Facts stated must have evidence (give examples)&lt;br /&gt;
# You cannot bring up new points in your rebuttal or closing argument&lt;br /&gt;
# work to convince others of your side’s benefits and overall greater “value.”&lt;br /&gt;
# Think carefully through the disadvantages of your view, and work to find solutions that would minimize their negative impact and thus help support your view.&lt;br /&gt;
#  Disagree respectfully.&lt;br /&gt;
# Demonstrate active listening so that you can respond to the concepts and ideas in your rebuttal accurately.&lt;br /&gt;
# Be sure you have done your research well so that you are at your best.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;1. '''Teacher Tips'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Start with an icebreaker: Ask students, “What makes you feel calm and strong inside? What makes you feel upset or worried?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Affirm that mental health ≠ weakness. Just like physical health, mental health needs care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Use Bible connections:'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Philippians 4:6–7 — God gives peace of mind.&lt;br /&gt;
* 1 Kings 19 — Even Elijah, a prophet, struggled with discouragement. God cared for him with rest, food, and reassurance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Reinforce the Adventist holistic view: Physical, mental, spiritual, and social health are all connected. (See Ministry of Healing, &amp;quot;Mind Cure&amp;quot; chp 18 - teacher resource).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keep it open-ended: Let kids share examples of how they stay healthy emotionally (friends, prayer, music, exercise).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. '''Teacher Tips'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Use sensitive language: say “struggles” or “challenges” rather than labeling people.&lt;br /&gt;
* Emphasize hope: With help, prayer, community, and sometimes professional care, people can heal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Give short, clear explanations:'''&lt;br /&gt;
* Anxiety = constant worry or fear.&lt;br /&gt;
* Depression = deep sadness, loss of interest, feeling hopeless.&lt;br /&gt;
* Stress = pressure from school, family, or peers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Loneliness = feeling isolated even around others.&lt;br /&gt;
* Identity struggles = questions about “Who am I?” “Do I belong?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Provide Biblical encouragement:'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Psalm 34:18 — God is close to the brokenhearted.&lt;br /&gt;
* Matthew 11:28 — Jesus invites the weary to rest in Him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Share Ellen White's perspective: She recognized mental struggles, writing that “disease of the mind prevails everywhere” and that “courage, hope, faith, sympathy, and love” bring healing (Ministry of Healing, chp 18, p. 241).&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&amp;lt;!-- 1. Define “hymn” and cite your source. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This requirement should be met by looking up the word &amp;quot;hymn&amp;quot; in a dictionary (whether online or in print), and then noting which dictionary was used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*1.a. a song of praise to God&lt;br /&gt;
*1.b. a metrical composition adapted for singing in a religious service&lt;br /&gt;
*2. a song of praise or joy&lt;br /&gt;
*3. something resembling a hymn” &lt;br /&gt;
The difference between a hymn and a praise song is two-fold: &lt;br /&gt;
1) praise songs are less formal in their &amp;quot;lyric structure,&amp;quot; while hymns will seem more like a poem set to music.  &lt;br /&gt;
2) praise songs are horizontal, talking about the personal experience while hymns are typically vertical, talking about God.  &lt;br /&gt;
The original greek for &amp;quot;hymn&amp;quot; means &amp;quot;praise song (to God)&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 2. Discuss the biblical context of the following texts as each relates to hymns, and the reasons given for singing: --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Read each verse as well as those around it to discover the context. Finding the context means that you try to learn when the passage was written, by whom, and under what circumstances. A Bible Commentary may also be helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 3. Select a verse or short passage from the Bible and set it to a tune. You may set the verse to an existing melody or compose one of your own. Sing your new hymn either acapella or with music. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This activity may be done as a group.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:17--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
When setting a passage of text to music, it is a good idea to start with the meter - that is, count the number of syllables in each phrase. Then divide the passage into segments to create a structure where the numbers repeat (if possible), and where the divisions between segments are in logical places. If you are having difficulty with this, try a different translation of the passage - it will likely have a different meter that may lend itself to this process a bit easier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:18--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A song's meter is usually expressed as a list of numbers. For instance, ''Give Me Oil In My Lamp'' has the meter 10, 8, 10, 9, because there are 10 syllables in the first and third stanzas, 8 in the second, and 9 in the fourth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:19--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have the meter, look in the metrical index of tunes in a hymnal and see if you can find something close to what you came up with. If you find something, you should notice that the tune to that song will work with the passage you are working with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:20--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you are especially creative, you can make your own melody instead of using an existing one. Starting with the meter is still a good idea even in this case, and you may find it effective to come up with a rhythm next, and finally, with the notes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* Scriptural index of worship aids (and Scriptural allusions in hymns and indexed by hymn number): can search for hymns to use by Bible verse&lt;br /&gt;
* Hymns suitable for sentences and responses: hymns that can be used in part in the worship service beyond being sung. i.e. benedictions, call to worship, before offering, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Hymns suitable for young worshipers: a list of hymns for Pathfinders, AY, or Sabbath School&lt;br /&gt;
* Authors, translators, and sources of texts: a way to find a hymn based on the origin of the lyrics.&lt;br /&gt;
* Composers, arrangers and sources of tunes: a way to find a hymn based on the origin of the music (tunes).&lt;br /&gt;
* Alphabetical index of tunes: A way to find a hymn when you already know the name of the hymn tune.&lt;br /&gt;

*1.a. a song of praise to God&lt;br /&gt;
*1.b. a metrical composition adapted for singing in a religious service&lt;br /&gt;
*2. a song of praise or joy&lt;br /&gt;
*3. something resembling a hymn” &lt;br /&gt;
*The difference between a hymn and a praise song is two-fold: &lt;br /&gt;
*1) praise songs are less formal in their &amp;quot;lyric structure,&amp;quot; while hymns will seem more like a poem set to music.  &lt;br /&gt;
*2) praise songs are horizontal, talking about the personal experience while hymns are typically vertical, talking about God.  &lt;br /&gt;
The original greek for &amp;quot;hymn&amp;quot; means &amp;quot;praise song (to God)&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 3. Select a verse or short passage from the Bible and set it to a tune. You may set the verse to an existing melody or compose one of your own. Sing your new hymn either acapella or with music. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This activity may be done as a group.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:17--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
When setting a passage of text to music, it is a good idea to start with the meter - that is, count the number of syllables in each phrase. Then divide the passage into segments to create a structure where the numbers repeat (if possible), and where the divisions between segments are in logical places. If you are having difficulty with this, try a different translation of the passage - it will likely have a different meter that may lend itself to this process a bit easier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:18--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A song's meter is usually expressed as a list of numbers. For instance, ''Give Me Oil In My Lamp'' has the meter 10, 8, 10, 9, because there are 10 syllables in the first and third stanzas, 8 in the second, and 9 in the fourth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:19--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have the meter, look in the metrical index of tunes in a hymnal and see if you can find something close to what you came up with. If you find something, you should notice that the tune to that song will work with the passage you are working with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:20--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you are especially creative, you can make your own melody instead of using an existing one. Starting with the meter is still a good idea even in this case, and you may find it effective to come up with a rhythm next, and finally, with the notes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* Scriptural index of worship aids (and Scriptural allusions in hymns and indexed by hymn number): can search for hymns to use by Bible verse&lt;br /&gt;
* Hymns suitable for sentences and responses: hymns that can be used in part in the worship service beyond being sung. i.e. benedictions, call to worship, before offering, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Hymns suitable for young worshipers: a list of hymns for Pathfinders, AY, or Sabbath School&lt;br /&gt;
* Authors, translators, and sources of texts: a way to find a hymn based on the origin of the lyrics.&lt;br /&gt;
* Composers, arrangers and sources of tunes: a way to find a hymn based on the origin of the music (tunes).&lt;br /&gt;
* Alphabetical index of tunes: A way to find a hymn when you already know the name of the hymn tune.&lt;br /&gt;
* Metrical index of tunes: A way to find hymns with the same meter (would allow the lyrics to be used interchangeably with the tune)&lt;br /&gt;
* Index of titles and first lines: A way to find the location of a hymn when you already know the hymn title or the first line.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 1. Define “hymn” and cite your source. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This requirement should be met by looking up the word &amp;quot;hymn&amp;quot; in a dictionary (whether online or in print), and then noting which dictionary was used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*1.a. a song of praise to God&lt;br /&gt;
*1.b. a metrical composition adapted for singing in a religious service&lt;br /&gt;
*2. a song of praise or joy&lt;br /&gt;
*3. something resembling a hymn” &lt;br /&gt;
the difference between a hymn and a praise song is two-fold: 1&lt;br /&gt;
1) praise songs are less formal in their &amp;quot;lyric structure,&amp;quot; while hymns will seem more like a poem set to music.  &lt;br /&gt;
2) praise songs are horizontal, talking about the personal experience while hymns are typically vertical, talking about God.  &lt;br /&gt;
The original greek for &amp;quot;hymn&amp;quot; means &amp;quot;praise song (to God)&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 2. Discuss the biblical context of the following texts as each relates to hymns, and the reasons given for singing: --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Read each verse as well as those around it to discover the context. Finding the context means that you try to learn when the passage was written, by whom, and under what circumstances. A Bible Commentary may also be helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- 3. Select a verse or short passage from the Bible and set it to a tune. You may set the verse to an existing melody or compose one of your own. Sing your new hymn either acapella or with music. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This activity may be done as a group.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:17--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
When setting a passage of text to music, it is a good idea to start with the meter - that is, count the number of syllables in each phrase. Then divide the passage into segments to create a structure where the numbers repeat (if possible), and where the divisions between segments are in logical places. If you are having difficulty with this, try a different translation of the passage - it will likely have a different meter that may lend itself to this process a bit easier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:18--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A song's meter is usually expressed as a list of numbers. For instance, ''Give Me Oil In My Lamp'' has the meter 10, 8, 10, 9, because there are 10 syllables in the first and third stanzas, 8 in the second, and 9 in the fourth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:19--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have the meter, look in the metrical index of tunes in a hymnal and see if you can find something close to what you came up with. If you find something, you should notice that the tune to that song will work with the passage you are working with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:20--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you are especially creative, you can make your own melody instead of using an existing one. Starting with the meter is still a good idea even in this case, and you may find it effective to come up with a rhythm next, and finally, with the notes.&lt;br /&gt;

* Scriptural index of worship aids (and Scriptural allusions in hymns and indexed by hymn number): can search for hymns to use by Bible verse&lt;br /&gt;
* Hymns suitable for sentences and responses: hymns that can be used in part in the worship service beyond being sung. i.e. benedictions, call to worship, before offering, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Hymns suitable for young worshipers: a list of hymns for Pathfinders, AY, or Sabbath School&lt;br /&gt;
* Authors, translators, and sources of texts: a way to find a hymn based on the origin of the lyrics.&lt;br /&gt;
* Composers, arrangers and sources of tunes: a way to find a hymn based on the origin of the music (tunes).&lt;br /&gt;
* Alphabetical index of tunes: A way to find a hymn when you already know the name of the hymn tune.&lt;br /&gt;
* Metrical index of tunes: A way to find hymns with the same meter (would allow the lyrics to be used interchangeably with the tune)&lt;br /&gt;
* Index of titles and first lines: A way to find the location of a hymn when you already know the hymn title or the first line.&lt;br /&gt;

==1. What is the gustatory system?== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Also known as the sense of taste, is the sensory system that allows us to perceive different flavors from substances like food, drink, and medicine. Molecules that we taste (called tastetants) are sensed by cells in our mouth, which then send information to the brain. These are specialized cells made to only receive taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds (gustatory receptors) send the taste information through neuro pathways to the brain stem. The brain stem sends the information on to the thalamus and the gustatory cortex, which is located in the left side of the cortex. These parts of the brain interpret the taste information and send back data to you for your reaction to the taste you are receiving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2. Define the word ‘taste’.== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste is the perception produced or stimulated when a substance in the mouth reacts chemically with taste receptor cells located on the taste buds in the oral cavity, mostly on the tongue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==3. What are the taste buds?== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds are sensory organs found on your tongue (mostly). Taste buds largely reside on the tongue but also exist in small number on the lining of the throat near the tonsils as well as in the gums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Scientists use to think that different parts of the tongue sensed different tastes, but many now feel that the taste buds on the different parts of the tongue are capable of receiving and processing a variety of taste information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bumpy nature of your tongue comes about because of these bundles of taste pores that are set to receive tastes as they enter your mouth.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Explain how taste is related to our other senses?== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The sense of smell and taste are very closely related because they use the same types of receptors.  If someone doesn't have a sense of smell, it will dull their ability to taste well.  Science says that the receptors assist each other, and the smell of the food you are eating enhances the taste your taste buds are receiving.  When the smell receptors don't work, then less information makes it to the brain to be interpreted as taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Touch:  Your tongue feels the heat or chill of food you eat as well as textures.  these touch sensors affect what you EXPECT to taste and thus can make something &amp;quot;more tasty&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Is our taste preference genetically decided or is it trained? Explain.== &amp;lt;!--T:10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Scientists feel that at least half of food preference is genetic.  Those preferences being genetic often demonstrate themselves in preferences to try or not try new foods.  However, training affects what tastes we will learn to accept as part of our culture, ethnic origins, nutritional choices, or religious health habits.  The Bible makes its calls to healthy living because God made us and knows that we can train our taste buds!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. What are the treatment options for someone who has lost their sense of taste?== &amp;lt;!--T:11--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Many conditions can affect a person's sense of taste:&lt;br /&gt;
* the common cold&lt;br /&gt;
* flu&lt;br /&gt;
* sinus infections&lt;br /&gt;
* throat infections such as STREP throat or pharyngitis&lt;br /&gt;
* salivary gland infections&lt;br /&gt;
* COVID-19&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other things that cause loss of taste:&lt;br /&gt;
* smoking&lt;br /&gt;
* failure to brush your teeth or participate in other oral hygiene&lt;br /&gt;
* medications necessary for other illnesses or treatments&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many conditions only affect a person's sense of taste temporarily. However, especially since COVID-19 lists loss of smell &amp;amp; taste as a primary indicator.  Please see your doctor if you lose a sense of taste and smell.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many times, there are medical treatments to enhance or &amp;quot;cure&amp;quot; a loss of taste.  In many cases, taste returns once you heal from your illness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Quote five Bible texts that refer to our sense of taste.== &amp;lt;!--T:12--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Psalm 34:8 - taste and see that the Lord is good.&lt;br /&gt;
* Psalm 119:103&lt;br /&gt;
* Proverbs 27:7&lt;br /&gt;
* Exodus 16:31 (Numbers 11:7-8) - the taste of manna&lt;br /&gt;
* Genesis 27:24 - Jacob serves soup to Esau&lt;br /&gt;
* John 2:9 - Story of Jesus turning the water to wine&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Perform a blind taste test with a minimum of ten foods.== &amp;lt;!--T:13--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:14--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
METHOD:&lt;br /&gt;
The easiest way is to do this is with a parent, guardian or friend. Have them blindfold you before they prepare the items for tasting to make sure you have no idea what the items are. Of the foods you taste at least 2 should be from each taste sensation category. Taste each item individually. Make sure that your parent, guardian or friend takes notes based on the questions below for each food that you taste. For each item you have 3 guessing attempts.&lt;br /&gt;

==1. What is the gustatory system?== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Also known as the sense of taste, is the sensory system that allows us to perceive different flavors from substances like food, drink, and medicine. Molecules that we taste (called tastetants) are sensed by cells in our mouth, which then send information to the brain. These are specialized cells made to only receive taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds (gustatory receptors) send the taste information through neuro pathways to the brain stem. The brain stem sends the information on to the thalamus and the gustatory cortex, which is located in the left side of the cortex. These parts of the brain interpret the taste information and send back data to you for your reaction to the taste you are receiving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2. Define the word ‘taste’.== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste is the perception produced or stimulated when a substance in the mouth reacts chemically with taste receptor cells located on the taste buds in the oral cavity, mostly on the tongue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==3. What are the taste buds?== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds are sensory organs found on your tongue (mostly). Taste buds largely reside on the tongue but also exist in small number on the lining of the throat near the tonsils as well as in the gums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Scientists use to think that different parts of the tongue sensed different tastes, but many now feel that the taste buds on the different parts of the tongue are capable of receiving and processing a variety of taste information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bumpy nature of your tongue comes about because of these bundles of taste pores that are set to receive tastes as they enter your mouth.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Explain how taste is related to our other senses?== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The sense of smell and taste are very closely related because they use the same types of receptors.  If someone doesn't have a sense of smell, it will dull their ability to taste well.  Science says that the receptors assist each other, and the smell of the food you are eating enhances the taste your taste buds are receiving.  When the smell receptors don't work, then less information makes it to the brain to be interpreted as taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Touch:  Your tongue feels the heat or chill of food you eat as well as textures.  these touch sensors affect what you EXPECT to taste and thus can make something &amp;quot;more tasty&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;

==1. What is the gustatory system?== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Also known as the sense of taste, is the sensory system that allows us to perceive different flavors from substances like food, drink, and medicine. Molecules that we taste (called tastetants) are sensed by cells in our mouth, which then send information to the brain. These are specialized cells made to only receive taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds (gustatory receptors) send the taste information through neuro pathways to the brain stem. The brain stem sends the information on to the thalamus and the gustatory cortex, which is located in the left side of the cortex. These parts of the brain interpret the taste information and send back data to you for your reaction to the taste you are receiving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2. Define the word ‘taste’.== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste is the perception produced or stimulated when a substance in the mouth reacts chemically with taste receptor cells located on the taste buds in the oral cavity, mostly on the tongue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==3. What are the taste buds?== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds are sensory organs found on your tongue (mostly). Taste buds largely reside on the tongue but also exist in small number on the lining of the throat near the tonsils as well as in the gums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Scientists use to think that different parts of the tongue sensed different tastes, but many now feel that the taste buds on the different parts of the tongue are capable of receiving and processing a variety of taste information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bumpy nature of your tongue comes about because of these bundles of taste pores that are set to receive tastes as they enter your mouth.&lt;br /&gt;

==1. What is the gustatory system?== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Also known as the sense of taste, is the sensory system that allows us to perceive different flavors from substances like food, drink, and medicine. Molecules that we taste (called tastetants) are sensed by cells in our mouth, which then send information to the brain. These are specialized cells made to only receive taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds (gustatory receptors) send the taste information through neuro pathways to the brain stem. The brain stem sends the information on to the thalamus and the gustatory cortex, which is located in the left side of the cortex. These parts of the brain interpret the taste information and send back data to you for your reaction to the taste you are receiving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2. Define the word ‘taste’.== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste is the perception produced or stimulated when a substance in the mouth reacts chemically with taste receptor cells located on the taste buds in the oral cavity, mostly on the tongue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==3. What are the taste buds?== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds are sensory organs found on your tongue (mostly). Taste buds largely reside on the tongue but also exist in small number on the lining of the throat near the tonsils as well as in the gums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Scientists use to think that different parts of the tongue sensed different tastes, but many now feel that the taste buds on the different parts of the tongue are capable of receiving and processing a variety of taste information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bumpy nature of your tongue comes about because of these bundles of taste pores that are set to receive tastes as they enter your mouth.&lt;br /&gt;

==1. What is the gustatory system?== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Also know as the sense of taste, is the sensory system that allows us to perceive different flavors from substances like food, drink, and medicine.  Molecules that we taste (called tastetants) are sensed by cells in our mouth, which then send information to the brain.  These are specialized cells made to only receive taste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds (gustatory receptors) send the taste information through neuro pathways to the brain stem.  The brain stem sends the information on to the thalamus and the gustatory cortex, which is located in the left side of the cortex.  These parts of the brain interpret the taste information and send back data to you for your reaction to the taste you are receiving.&lt;br /&gt;
\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2. Define the word ‘taste’.== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste is the perception produced or stimulated when a substance in the mouth reacts chemically with taste receptor cells located on the taste buds in the oral cavity, mostly on the tongue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==3. What are the taste buds?== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Taste buds are sensory organs found on your tongue (mostly).&lt;br /&gt;
Scientists use to think that different parts of the tongue sensed different tastes, but many now feel that the taste buds on the different parts of the tongue are capable of receiving and processing a variety of taste information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bumpy nature of your tongue comes about because of these bundles of taste pores that are set to receive tastes as they enter your mouth.&lt;br /&gt;

It is typically available as a series, new installments of which can be received automatically through a subscription.&lt;br /&gt;

visual and audio files are the work and thus property of their producers/owners.&lt;br /&gt;
There are three types of licenses in the recording industry&lt;br /&gt;
Copyright - work cannot be used, adapted, copied, or published without the owners permission&lt;br /&gt;
Creative Commons - work may be used without permission but only under certain circumstances.  Creators set the rules for the way the work is used.&lt;br /&gt;
Public Domain - work can be used, adapted, copied, and published completely without restrictions.  No permission is required.  Public domain is often work that has fallen out of copyright and not been renewed.  Classic hymns, such as Amazing Grace are in the public domain.  A good list of classic hymns in the public domain can be found at [http://www.hymnsuntogod.org/Hymns-PD/ZZ-CompletePDHymnList.html]&lt;br /&gt;

visual and audio files are the work and thus property of their producers/owners.&lt;br /&gt;
There are three types of licenses in the recording industry&lt;br /&gt;
Copyright - work cannot be used, adapted, copied, or published without the owners permission&lt;br /&gt;
Creative Commons - work may be used without permission but only under certain circumstances.  Creators set the rules for the way the work is used.&lt;br /&gt;
Public Domain - work can be used, adapted, copied, and published completely without restrictions.  No permission is required.  Public domain is often work that has fallen out of copyright and not been renewed.  Classic hymns, such as Amazing Grace are in the public domain.  A good list of classic hymns in the public domain can be found at [http://www.hymnsuntogod.org/Hymns-PD/ZZ-CompletePDHymnList.html]&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==1. Define the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. &amp;quot;judge&amp;quot; when referring to a person=== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A public official appointed to decide cases in a court of law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. &amp;quot;judge&amp;quot; when referring to an action=== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To form an opinion or conclusion about a matter and render a decision.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2. Read chapter 3 of the book of Judges and then answer the following questions:== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. What were the roles of the judges of Israel?=== &amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The judges of Israel had complex roles, many of their deeds and actions involved military actions against nations oppressing the God’s people. They were also called upon to settle disputes both between persons and between tribes. Finally, they were the personal representatives of God in the Theocratic governing of the children of Israel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. How did the judges of Israel differ from the judges we have today?=== &amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Judges today have a very specific role in deciding issues according to the rule of law, often the Judges of Israel had to improvise when: deciding cases, fighting battles, handing down messages from God, and settling land disputes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==3. Create a table that describes the book of Judges; it should include the following headers (note that not all the entries for each block in the table will be known).== &amp;lt;!--T:8--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===a. The name of each of the twelve judges in the book of Judges===&lt;br /&gt;
===b. The tribe the judge was from===&lt;br /&gt;
===c. The enemy defeated===&lt;br /&gt;
===d. Number of years of oppression by that enemy===&lt;br /&gt;
===e. Number of years of peace after the enemy’s defeat===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==4. Name three other judges listed in other books of the Bible.== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Eli, Samuel as well as Joel and Abiah (the two sons of Samuel) mentioned in 1st Samuel. Amariah and Zebadiah are mentioned in 2nd Chronicles 19:11.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==5. Name the first and last judge of Israel.== &amp;lt;!--T:10--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Generally, Othneil is considered the first judge of Israel; however, a case can be made that this distinction should go to Moses.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:11--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, Samuel is considered the last judge of Israel, because he judged all of Israel and was the human representative of God as Israel was ruled as a theocracy. However, you could say that Amariah and Zebadiah are the last judges in the historical timeline.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==6. In what time period did the judges lead Israel?== &amp;lt;!--T:12--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It is very difficult to nail down exact times during this time-period; however, 1375–1075 B.C. is a good estimate for the book of Judges and Samuel relinquished the political rule of Israel to Saul in 1052 B.C.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. What was the form of government under the rule of the judges?== &amp;lt;!--T:13--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
While the judges were the physical manifestation of leaders; during the period of the Judges, God was leading the children of Israel and thus the form of government was a [[w:Theocracy|Theocracy]]. A theocracy is defined as a system of government in which priests or religious leaders rule in the name of God or a god.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Create a visual demonstration (pictures, collage, digital presentation, demonstration, etc.) or dramatic demonstration (song, poem, dramatic reading, skit, etc.) depicting the deeds of either Samson or Gideon.== &amp;lt;!--T:14--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Please encourage your students to be creative, and if possible encourage them to do something personal that can be saved for remembrance after they complete the honor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Read chapters 4 and 5 of the book of Judges and discuss the following questions with your Pathfinder counselor or church pastor:== &amp;lt;!--T:15--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. What were Deborah’s roles as a leader of the children of Israel?=== &amp;lt;!--T:16--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She was both a prophet and a judge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. What roles have women been biblically called to serve (provide supporting texts)?=== &amp;lt;!--T:17--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone looking for a definitive answer on the role of women in pastoral ministry will be sadly disappointed. On one hand, it is clear that God is not gender biased (Romans 2:11; Acts 10:34, Ephesians 6:9, and 1 Peter 4:10-11). We see at the day of Pentecost that the Holy Spirit filled both genders alike (Acts 2: 1-21). We also see that in the end times God hands down spiritual gifts regardless of gender (Joel 2:28-29). On the other hand, 1 Timothy 2:12 discusses the challenges of placing a woman to teach or have authority over a man and 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 discuss women being silent in the church. Clearly, the book of Judges gives us a powerful example that God did call women to lead His people. Deborah was both a prophet and a judge. The roles of women in ministry is not answered in this document. Each side of this issue has biblical texts to support their personal stance; however, teachers of this honor should be reminded that we must all have a personal ministry to those around us and we should not provide obstacles to the ministry of others regardless of gender.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Why was Barak denied victory over his enemy?=== &amp;lt;!--T:18--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Deborah called Barak to lead, he refused to lead and take the responsibility that she offered and instead wanted to have Deborah to be present to provide the conduit for leadership. Thus, when he refused to accept leadership God sent Deborah the message that Barak would also not receive the credit for what God was about to accomplish. In fact God used two women to defeat the opposing king. One that led the people and the other to kill the king in his sleep by driving a tent stake through his head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Read chapter 14 of the book of Judges and discuss the following questions with your Pathfinder counselor or church pastor:== &amp;lt;!--T:19--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. What are the difficulties associated with a marriage outside of one’s own faith?=== &amp;lt;!--T:20--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There are definite difficulties associated with marriage outside of faith, here are a few: 1) how does one observe the Sabbath as a family, 2) in what faith will the children be raised, 3) how is the family going to pay tithe and to what organization, 4) will each spouse support the religion or lack thereof of their mate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. If one does marry outside of their faith, how can they best maintain their faith?=== &amp;lt;!--T:21--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One of the best suggestions is prayerful consideration and a request for strength to be the best example of a Christian, and a Seventh-day Adventist that you can be for your spouse to see God’s work in your life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Why did God continue to bless Samson with superhuman strength after he turned from God’s ways?=== &amp;lt;!--T:22--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
God continues to bless us, even when we sometimes fall away from Him. God had given Samson strength associated with his vow as a Nazarene. Samson kept the outward signs of his vow, hence God continued to bless him even though he was a sinner and was violating some of the personal portions of his vow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==11. Take turns role playing as a judge on some matter of import (whether real or made up) for your Pathfinder Club / Unit / or your Sabbath School class. In each case, there should be a plaintiff that brings forth a complaint, a defendant that the complaint is made against, and a judge that will provide the final say in the matter. The matter should have some reward or penalty associated with the decision to make rendering a judgement more realistic.== &amp;lt;!--T:23--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Teachers, this is an excellent opportunity to have your class understand the difficulty of judging someone. Please do not divide your teams up by gender and then expect a fair judgment. Rather have random selection of which members of your class will be the plaintiffs and which others will be the defendants. It helps if there is a consequence of significance. For example, the losing side has to do the winning side’s chores on a campout, or the winning side gets double dessert and the losing side gets none. This will provide realism for the plaintiffs and the defendants. You can also create penalties or rewards for the judges to ensure fairness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==12. Read chapter 11 of the book of Judges and discuss the vow of Jephthah with your Pathfinder counselor or church pastor. Does God hold us to our vows when it causes pain to others?== &amp;lt;!--T:24--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It is important for the Pathfinders to be aware that vows taken before God are sacred and holy matters. Ironically, we have no illumination on this passage in the Conflict of the Ages series and Ellen White is surprisingly mute on this topic. Many believe that God will not hold us to vows that cause us to violate one of the Ten Commandments. It is possible that Jephthah’s daughter was not burned to death on an altar, but that rather she was dedicated to God and was unable to live a normal life but died in the service of God a virgin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:25--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There is an example of men taking a harmful vow in Acts 23:12-15. They were unable to keep it, and it can be argued that God did not want them to.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==13. Analyze some of the possible reasons why God called for judges in Israel.== &amp;lt;!--T:26--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==14. What action brought on the end of the period of the judges?== &amp;lt;!--T:27--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:28--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{Bible_verse&lt;br /&gt;

Israel Demands a King&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:29--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 Now it came to pass when Samuel was old that he made his sons judges over Israel. 2 The name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah; they were judges in Beersheba. 3 But his sons did not walk in his ways; they turned aside after dishonest gain, took bribes, and perverted justice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah, 5 and said to him, “Look, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:31--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6 But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” So Samuel prayed to the Lord. 7 And the Lord said to Samuel, “Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them. 8 According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt, even to this day—with which they have forsaken Me and served other gods—so they are doing to you also. 9 Now therefore, heed their voice. However, you shall solemnly forewarn them, and show them the behavior of the king who will reign over them.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:32--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
10 So Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who asked him for a king. 11 And he said, “This will be the behavior of the king who will reign over you: He will take your sons and appoint them for his own chariots and to be his horsemen, and some will run before his chariots. 12 He will appoint captains over his thousands and captains over his fifties, will set some to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and some to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. 13 He will take your daughters to be perfumers, cooks, and bakers  14 And he will take the best of your fields, your vineyards, and your olive groves, and give them to his servants. 15 He will take a tenth of your grain and your vintage, and give it to his officers and servants. 16 And he will take your male servants, your female servants, your finest young men,[a] and your donkeys, and put them to his work. 17 He will take a tenth of your sheep. And you will be his servants. 18 And you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, and the Lord will not hear you in that day.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:33--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, “No, but we will have a king over us, 20 that we also may be like all the nations, and that our king may judge us and go out before us and fight our battles.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:34--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he repeated them in the hearing of the Lord. 22 So the Lord said to Samuel, “Heed their voice, and make them a king.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:35--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
And Samuel said to the men of Israel, “Every man go to his city.”&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==1. Define the following terms by researching them in a reputable Christian literary source and discuss their meaning with your unit, instructor, or a pastor.== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Disciple=== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Disciple''' - Someone who is called by God. “During Jesus' earthly ministry, and during the days of the early church, the term that was used most frequently to designate one of Jesus' followers was &amp;quot;disciple&amp;quot; (mathetes) 262 times.” “Called to a Relationship with God. The roots of biblical discipleship go deep into the fertile soil of God's calling. That calling is expressed in the pattern of divine initiative and human response that constitutes the heart of the biblical concept of covenant, manifested in the recurrent promise, &amp;quot;I will be your God, and you shall be my people.&amp;quot; That call from Yahweh is reiterated in the call of Jesus, when he said, &amp;quot;Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest&amp;quot; ( Matt 11:28 ). God has called his people to represent him on the earth, to be with him in every circumstance of life, to be transformed in personal character to be like him. That calling is at the heart of biblical discipleship, both in the Old and New Testaments.” – Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Apostle=== &amp;lt;!--T:87--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:31--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Apostle''' - Someone who is sent out with a message. Pre-Christian use of the Greek term apostolos as one who is sent or a messenger is rare, more commonly it was referring to an ambassador or emissary. However the post-Christian use of the term is one sent to the churches by an authority with a message. The use of the word as a noun was found seventy-nine times in the New Testament (10 in the gospels, 28 times in Acts, 38 times in the Epistles, and three times in Revelation). Only once (Heb 3:1) is it used to refer directly to Christ. – Paraphrased from Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Missionary=== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Missionary -''' In Biblical literature the terms &amp;quot;apostle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;missionary&amp;quot; are the same greek word, apostolos (apostle).  In the New Testament, Apostles did missionary work.  In an era where most of the known world had never heard of Christianity, it is logical that apostle and missionary would be the same.  &lt;br /&gt;
In more modern times, a missionary is one who is an apostle (person with a message) and disciples (one who closely follows God) who feels a calling to share the message with a people group who has not yet had full exposure (or any exposure at all) to the story of Christianity.  The nation of origin is unimportant, the location of service is what makes a disciple &amp;amp; apostle a missionary.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Missionaries, apostles, and disciples ALL choose a close relationship with Jesus Christ and work to share the story of Jesus and his gift of salvation in an apologetic fashion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note:  This definition is based on the SDA Bible commentary vol 6 &amp;quot;Acts of the Apostles [https://m.egwwritings.org/search?lang=en&amp;amp;query=missionary&amp;amp;suggestion=0]&lt;br /&gt;

==2. For the following questions, provide not only the answer, but also the Bible text(s) where you found the answer(s).== &amp;lt;!--T:88--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''The story line:'''  Paul was blinded during a vision on the road to Damascus.  Paul (Saul) had been a passionate persecutor of the Christians, and was going to Damascus to capture and destroy the Christians who had fled there.  But Jesus saw Saul's potential and called him to a life of mission service as an apostle of Jesus.  After three days of fasting and prayer in the home of Judas of Damascus, Saul/Paul accepted God's call.  Paul explains his calling, in fact gives a whole extensive story line of events that led to his leadership position as an apostle of Jesus, in Galatians 1-2 [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians+1-2&amp;amp;version=NKJV]-- but it was first declared by Jesus Christ in a vision to Paul's healer - Ananias.&lt;br /&gt;

==3. Consider the following questions and share your understanding using any creative medium (an opinion paper, a drawing, a video, a computer post with pictures, a poem, a song, a dramatic performance, etc.).== &amp;lt;!--T:91--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. At what point did Jesus’ twelve disciples transition to apostles?=== &amp;lt;!--T:92--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Can you be an apostle or a missionary without being a disciple?=== &amp;lt;!--T:93--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. What is one similarity between apostles, disciples and missionaries?=== &amp;lt;!--T:94--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. What is a similarity and a difference between an apostle, a missionary, and a prophet?=== &amp;lt;!--T:95--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Similarity''' – Called to spread the gospel of Jesus. They are followers of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Difference''' – The biblical apostles were chosen from the disciples and were commissioned by Jesus. Later apostles were appointed, like Paul, Andronicus, and Junias&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===e. Considering Matthew 28:19-20, can a true disciple follow Christ without filling some apostolic or missionary role?=== &amp;lt;!--T:96--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Read Matthew 4:18-22 and briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium the biblical account of how the first disciples were called to follow Christ. Also demonstrate the significance and impact these callings had on the future of the gospel.=== &amp;lt;!--T:98--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
On the same account, Jesus saw James and John and called out to them. With a similar reaction, they dropped what they were doing to follow the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;

'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Teachers can '''emphasize''' the &amp;quot;leaving everything&amp;quot; or how these first disciples became major players in the ministry of the church, especially in its starts as show in Acts 1-8 and 12. Peter is a significant leader for decades, giving the key Pentacost sermon among other leadership roles. James was the first disciples to die a martyrs death, while John was the one to live the longest, contributing the Apocalyptic book Revelation (with its message for our present and future).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Read Acts 2 individually or with a group. Briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium what took place at Pentecost and determine how this event impacted the future of the Christian church.=== &amp;lt;!--T:100--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You can use your personal Bible to read this chapter or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The day of Pentecost is recorded as one of the most significant acts of the Bible. The Holy Spirit came upon the disciples, baptizing them with the spirit. They were able to speak in different languages (tongues) that were clearly understood by those who witnessed firsthand the power of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:68--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:69--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The idea that Christianity was a message for &amp;quot;all nations&amp;quot; began at Pentecost, though at first, it was understood to mean that JEWS of any nation had the right to hear and understand and become Christians (at that time practiced as a sect of Judaism). However, as events unfolded (Cornelius, Paul's conversion and mission work to the gentiles) it '''''came to be understood as the opening lines for a global message that could be preached to &amp;quot;every nation, kindred, tongue, and people'''''.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==5. Read Acts 9:1-31. Based on your reading, from each of the three perspectives (Saul, Ananias, and a Christian in Jerusalem), discuss or role-play answers to the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:102--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Could, would, or should Paul be trusted by the early Christian believers after his conversion?=== &amp;lt;!--T:104--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:76--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He was still viewed as a killer of Christians, one that could not be trusted. They looked at him as if he had a plan to kill them by becoming one of them. Barnabas assisted him in integrating into the Christian community in Jerusalem. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=acts+9%3A26-27&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway.com link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:77--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They viewed him in this fashion since he had been their persecutor prior to his conversion. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8%3A1-3&amp;amp;version=NKJV Acts 8:1-3 BibleGateway link]&lt;br /&gt;

===b. Must we go to God to be converted or does He come to us to offer conversion, no matter where we are or what we are doing?=== &amp;lt;!--T:105--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:78--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Many individuals live a life of sin before coming into the church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Read Chapter 2 of the book The Acts of the Apostles by Ellen G. White entitled, “The Training of the Twelve”. Individually or with a group, consider the methods Christ used to train His disciples. Determine if those exact methods would still work today, or would there be modern equivalents that could be used to train people to be disciples of God.== &amp;lt;!--T:106--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

'''Teaching Points:'''&lt;br /&gt;
* He choose those who were not already caught up in their own philosophy.&lt;br /&gt;
* He preached to others in their presence and an example.&lt;br /&gt;
* He walked and talked with each of them.&lt;br /&gt;
* He spoke about Heaven as they listened.&lt;br /&gt;
* He did not give orders or commands, but allowed them to make decisions on their own to follow Him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. With a group, role-play a specific scene from the life of a disciple, an apostle or a missionary of your choice. Briefly explain why you chose this scene and why you think it illustrates their calling from God.== &amp;lt;!--T:107--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. From what you have learned in studying these subjects, is it possible for there to be an Apostle in the Seventh-day Adventist church today? How about during any point during the time period since the mid-1840s?== &amp;lt;!--T:108--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Illustrate through drawings, sketches, or photographs the travels of Paul as he proclaimed the gospel to the world.== &amp;lt;!--T:109--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Be sure to capture some of the cultural icons that Paul was facing while preaching Christianity to the secular gentile world. How do these differ from the secular cultural icons of today?=== &amp;lt;!--T:110--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:79--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Pathfinders are encouraged to explore the options available that would clearly outline Paul’s travels as he ministered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:80--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This can include images from FREE IMAGE websites like [http://www.flickr.com flickr.com] and Google images (tools ==&amp;gt; useage rights ==&amp;gt; labeled for reuse) [https://www.google.com/search?q=paul+apostle+missionary&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;source=lnt&amp;amp;tbs=sur:fc&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ved=0ahUKEwiEpMTk-YLWAhWM5IMKHbypBmEQpwUIHw&amp;amp;biw=1366&amp;amp;bih=589&amp;amp;dpr=1 Sample link for &amp;quot;Paul apostle missionary&amp;quot; images]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:81--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Divide the kids into groups. Have each group research pictures on four of the locations Paul stopped and download, print, or capture one or two images from each of those cities. Attach these images to a centralized map of Paul's missionary journeys.  If done digitally, a Powerpoint set of slides with one page for EACH JOURNEY would be PLENTY to fulfill this requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:82--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Take pictures of the Pathfinders &amp;quot;freeze framing&amp;quot; one scene from four of the cities Paul visited on each journey.  Attach them to a missionary journeys map, either in print or digital form. Costuming would be cool, but &amp;quot;modern interpretations&amp;quot; would also be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. All Biblical scholars agree that there were at least three Pauline missionary journeys as described in the 28 Chapters of Acts. Some Christians hold that there was a fourth and possibly a fifth journey that are alluded to in the lost chapters of Acts (29 &amp;amp; 30). Talk with your pastor and discuss how you should treat these theories and would these additional journeys in any way change or illuminate Paul’s ministry.=== &amp;lt;!--T:111--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Over a two-week process, conduct a daily self-evaluation of the quality of your discipleship for that particular day. Rate based on the statements below on a scale from 1 to 10 where ten means you are very strong in that area and one means you are weak. Contemplate your assessment, set goals for improvement, and ask Jesus to provide you the necessary strength to meet these goals.== &amp;lt;!--T:112--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your desire is to please God in all that you do.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You have a passion to share your faith with others.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You allow the Lord to lead your decision-making process.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You pray every day on a regular basis.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You spend time with the Lord through worship.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your life represents Jesus to those around you.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You reach out to those who are less fortunate than you.===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==11. State the Great Commission, as outlined in Matthew 28:19-20.== &amp;lt;!--T:113--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Great Commission is the concluding statement of Jesus to His disciples and gives a command to His disciples.  &lt;br /&gt;

GO&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
MAKE DISCIPLES&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

*Baptize in the name of the Lord&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Brainstorm a list of New Testament stories that illustrate the different parts of the Great Commission.=== &amp;lt;!--T:117--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:118--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Brainstorm means to let your Pathfinders do most of the thinking with the Pathfinder leader GUIDING the discussion to keep it &amp;quot;within boundaries.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some possibilities include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Philip baptizes the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8)&lt;br /&gt;
*Peter is called, responds to, preaches to, and baptizes Cornelius the Roman centurion (Acts 10)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul travels throughout Asia Minor (Acts 13 to 26 various stories)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul is imprisoned, there is an earthquake, and as a result the jailer is baptized (Acts 16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Evaluate and list ways in which modern Christians in your area can put the Great Commission into practice.=== &amp;lt;!--T:119--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This question is wide open. The important elements are that it means stepping outside our comfort zone and sharing Jesus with people outside of our current faith community. This does NOT mean &amp;quot;give and run&amp;quot; random &amp;quot;booklet evangelism&amp;quot; but rather methods that involve all three portions of the Great Commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. Using what you’ve learned from this honor, brainstorm an idea on how you can help fulfill the Great Commission. Talk with your instructor and/or a pastor about your idea and then put this idea into practice for a period of at least one month. Share with your class, instructor, or your pastor how this activity has changed your relationship with God and whether you have seen any effects on others.=== &amp;lt;!--T:120--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:84--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Idea:'''&lt;br /&gt;
A simple page, sticky notes, or journal entry would suffice. Encourage the Pathfinders to make the goals DOABLE and MEASURABLE and truly OBTAINABLE with the help of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:85--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Examples:'''  &lt;br /&gt;
* I will assist two people that I would normally ignore.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will teach someone younger than me (physically or spiritually less mature) one thing I have come to know about Jesus Christ in a way that helps them hear the message effectively.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will spend three hours serving my public community.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will donate either time or money (specific amounts) to disaster relief in my country/region of origin.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will pray for people I am getting to know who are not currently part of my church.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will help my church with the upcoming evangelistic series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:86--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Make sure the Pathfinders have chosen goals that they can reasonably accomplish and completely accomplish. Check back in a few weeks to encourage and confirm completion of goals.&lt;br /&gt;

==1. Define the following terms by researching them in a reputable Christian literary source and discuss their meaning with your unit, instructor, or a pastor.== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Disciple=== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Disciple''' - Someone who is called by God. “During Jesus' earthly ministry, and during the days of the early church, the term that was used most frequently to designate one of Jesus' followers was &amp;quot;disciple&amp;quot; (mathetes) 262 times.” “Called to a Relationship with God. The roots of biblical discipleship go deep into the fertile soil of God's calling. That calling is expressed in the pattern of divine initiative and human response that constitutes the heart of the biblical concept of covenant, manifested in the recurrent promise, &amp;quot;I will be your God, and you shall be my people.&amp;quot; That call from Yahweh is reiterated in the call of Jesus, when he said, &amp;quot;Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest&amp;quot; ( Matt 11:28 ). God has called his people to represent him on the earth, to be with him in every circumstance of life, to be transformed in personal character to be like him. That calling is at the heart of biblical discipleship, both in the Old and New Testaments.” – Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Apostle=== &amp;lt;!--T:87--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:31--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Apostle''' - Someone who is sent out with a message. Pre-Christian use of the Greek term apostolos as one who is sent or a messenger is rare, more commonly it was referring to an ambassador or emissary. However the post-Christian use of the term is one sent to the churches by an authority with a message. The use of the word as a noun was found seventy-nine times in the New Testament (10 in the gospels, 28 times in Acts, 38 times in the Epistles, and three times in Revelation). Only once (Heb 3:1) is it used to refer directly to Christ. – Paraphrased from Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Missionary=== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Missionary -''' In Biblical literature the terms &amp;quot;apostle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;missionary&amp;quot; are the same greek word, apostolos (apostle).  In the New Testament, Apostles did missionary work.  In an era where most of the known world had never heard of Christianity, it is logical that apostle and missionary would be the same.  &lt;br /&gt;
In more modern times, a missionary is one who is an apostle (person with a message) and disciples (one who closely follows God) who feels a calling to share the message with a people group who has not yet had full exposure (or any exposure at all) to the story of Christianity.  The nation of origin is unimportant, the location of service is what makes a disciple &amp;amp; apostle a missionary.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Missionaries, apostles, and disciples ALL choose a close relationship with Jesus Christ and work to share the story of Jesus and his gift of salvation in an apologetic fashion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''The story line:'''  Paul was blinded during a vision on the road to Damascus.  Paul (Saul) had been a passionate persecutor of the Christians, and was going to Damascus to capture and destroy the Christians who had fled there.  But Jesus saw Saul's potential and called him to a life of mission service as an apostle of Jesus.  After three days of fasting and prayer in the home of Judas of Damascus, Saul/Paul accepted God's call.  Paul explains his calling, in fact gives a whole extensive story line of events that led to his leadership position as an apostle of Jesus, in [[Galatians 1-2|https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians+1-2&amp;amp;version=NKJV]] -- but it was first declared by Jesus Christ in a vision to Paul's healer - Ananias.&lt;br /&gt;

==3. Consider the following questions and share your understanding using any creative medium (an opinion paper, a drawing, a video, a computer post with pictures, a poem, a song, a dramatic performance, etc.).== &amp;lt;!--T:91--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. At what point did Jesus’ twelve disciples transition to apostles?=== &amp;lt;!--T:92--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Can you be an apostle or a missionary without being a disciple?=== &amp;lt;!--T:93--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. What is one similarity between apostles, disciples and missionaries?=== &amp;lt;!--T:94--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. What is a similarity and a difference between an apostle, a missionary, and a prophet?=== &amp;lt;!--T:95--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Similarity''' – Called to spread the gospel of Jesus. They are followers of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Difference''' – The biblical apostles were chosen from the disciples and were commissioned by Jesus. Later apostles were appointed, like Paul, Andronicus, and Junias&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===e. Considering Matthew 28:19-20, can a true disciple follow Christ without filling some apostolic or missionary role?=== &amp;lt;!--T:96--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==4. Do one of the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:9--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Read Matthew 4:18-22 and briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium the biblical account of how the first disciples were called to follow Christ. Also demonstrate the significance and impact these callings had on the future of the gospel.=== &amp;lt;!--T:98--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Jesus called out to Peter and his brother Andrew, two fishermen as they were casting their nets. They immediately left what they were doing without question to follow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
On the same account, Jesus saw James and John and called out to them. With a similar reaction, they dropped what they were doing to follow the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Teachers can '''emphasize''' the &amp;quot;leaving everything&amp;quot; or how these first disciples became major players in the ministry of the church, especially in its starts as show in Acts 1-8 and 12. Peter is a significant leader for decades, giving the key Pentacost sermon among other leadership roles. James was the first disciples to die a martyrs death, while John was the one to live the longest, contributing the Apocalyptic book Revelation (with its message for our present and future).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Read Acts 2 individually or with a group. Briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium what took place at Pentecost and determine how this event impacted the future of the Christian church.=== &amp;lt;!--T:100--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

You can use your personal Bible to read this chapter or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The day of Pentecost is recorded as one of the most significant acts of the Bible. The Holy Spirit came upon the disciples, baptizing them with the spirit. They were able to speak in different languages (tongues) that were clearly understood by those who witnessed firsthand the power of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:68--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:69--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The idea that Christianity was a message for &amp;quot;all nations&amp;quot; began at Pentecost, though at first, it was understood to mean that JEWS of any nation had the right to hear and understand and become Christians (at that time practiced as a sect of Judaism). However, as events unfolded (Cornelius, Paul's conversion and mission work to the gentiles) it '''''came to be understood as the opening lines for a global message that could be preached to &amp;quot;every nation, kindred, tongue, and people'''''.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==5. Read Acts 9:1-31. Based on your reading, from each of the three perspectives (Saul, Ananias, and a Christian in Jerusalem), discuss or role-play answers to the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:102--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Could, would, or should Paul be trusted by the early Christian believers after his conversion?=== &amp;lt;!--T:104--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:76--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He was still viewed as a killer of Christians, one that could not be trusted. They looked at him as if he had a plan to kill them by becoming one of them. Barnabas assisted him in integrating into the Christian community in Jerusalem. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=acts+9%3A26-27&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway.com link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:77--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They viewed him in this fashion since he had been their persecutor prior to his conversion. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8%3A1-3&amp;amp;version=NKJV Acts 8:1-3 BibleGateway link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Must we go to God to be converted or does He come to us to offer conversion, no matter where we are or what we are doing?=== &amp;lt;!--T:105--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:78--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Many individuals live a life of sin before coming into the church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Read Chapter 2 of the book The Acts of the Apostles by Ellen G. White entitled, “The Training of the Twelve”. Individually or with a group, consider the methods Christ used to train His disciples. Determine if those exact methods would still work today, or would there be modern equivalents that could be used to train people to be disciples of God.== &amp;lt;!--T:106--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

'''Teaching Points:'''&lt;br /&gt;
* He choose those who were not already caught up in their own philosophy.&lt;br /&gt;
* He preached to others in their presence and an example.&lt;br /&gt;
* He walked and talked with each of them.&lt;br /&gt;
* He spoke about Heaven as they listened.&lt;br /&gt;
* He did not give orders or commands, but allowed them to make decisions on their own to follow Him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. With a group, role-play a specific scene from the life of a disciple, an apostle or a missionary of your choice. Briefly explain why you chose this scene and why you think it illustrates their calling from God.== &amp;lt;!--T:107--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. From what you have learned in studying these subjects, is it possible for there to be an Apostle in the Seventh-day Adventist church today? How about during any point during the time period since the mid-1840s?== &amp;lt;!--T:108--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Illustrate through drawings, sketches, or photographs the travels of Paul as he proclaimed the gospel to the world.== &amp;lt;!--T:109--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Be sure to capture some of the cultural icons that Paul was facing while preaching Christianity to the secular gentile world. How do these differ from the secular cultural icons of today?=== &amp;lt;!--T:110--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:79--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Pathfinders are encouraged to explore the options available that would clearly outline Paul’s travels as he ministered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:80--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This can include images from FREE IMAGE websites like [http://www.flickr.com flickr.com] and Google images (tools ==&amp;gt; useage rights ==&amp;gt; labeled for reuse) [https://www.google.com/search?q=paul+apostle+missionary&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;source=lnt&amp;amp;tbs=sur:fc&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ved=0ahUKEwiEpMTk-YLWAhWM5IMKHbypBmEQpwUIHw&amp;amp;biw=1366&amp;amp;bih=589&amp;amp;dpr=1 Sample link for &amp;quot;Paul apostle missionary&amp;quot; images]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:81--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Divide the kids into groups. Have each group research pictures on four of the locations Paul stopped and download, print, or capture one or two images from each of those cities. Attach these images to a centralized map of Paul's missionary journeys.  If done digitally, a Powerpoint set of slides with one page for EACH JOURNEY would be PLENTY to fulfill this requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:82--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Take pictures of the Pathfinders &amp;quot;freeze framing&amp;quot; one scene from four of the cities Paul visited on each journey.  Attach them to a missionary journeys map, either in print or digital form. Costuming would be cool, but &amp;quot;modern interpretations&amp;quot; would also be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. All Biblical scholars agree that there were at least three Pauline missionary journeys as described in the 28 Chapters of Acts. Some Christians hold that there was a fourth and possibly a fifth journey that are alluded to in the lost chapters of Acts (29 &amp;amp; 30). Talk with your pastor and discuss how you should treat these theories and would these additional journeys in any way change or illuminate Paul’s ministry.=== &amp;lt;!--T:111--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Over a two-week process, conduct a daily self-evaluation of the quality of your discipleship for that particular day. Rate based on the statements below on a scale from 1 to 10 where ten means you are very strong in that area and one means you are weak. Contemplate your assessment, set goals for improvement, and ask Jesus to provide you the necessary strength to meet these goals.== &amp;lt;!--T:112--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your desire is to please God in all that you do.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You have a passion to share your faith with others.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You allow the Lord to lead your decision-making process.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You pray every day on a regular basis.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You spend time with the Lord through worship.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your life represents Jesus to those around you.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You reach out to those who are less fortunate than you.===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==11. State the Great Commission, as outlined in Matthew 28:19-20.== &amp;lt;!--T:113--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

*Philip baptizes the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8)&lt;br /&gt;
*Peter is called, responds to, preaches to, and baptizes Cornelius the Roman centurion (Acts 10)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul travels throughout Asia Minor (Acts 13 to 26 various stories)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul is imprisoned, there is an earthquake, and as a result the jailer is baptized (Acts 16)&lt;br /&gt;

===c. Evaluate and list ways in which modern Christians in your area can put the Great Commission into practice.=== &amp;lt;!--T:119--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This question is wide open. The important elements are that it means stepping outside our comfort zone and sharing Jesus with people outside of our current faith community. This does NOT mean &amp;quot;give and run&amp;quot; random &amp;quot;booklet evangelism&amp;quot; but rather methods that involve all three portions of the Great Commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. Using what you’ve learned from this honor, brainstorm an idea on how you can help fulfill the Great Commission. Talk with your instructor and/or a pastor about your idea and then put this idea into practice for a period of at least one month. Share with your class, instructor, or your pastor how this activity has changed your relationship with God and whether you have seen any effects on others.=== &amp;lt;!--T:120--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:84--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Idea:'''&lt;br /&gt;
A simple page, sticky notes, or journal entry would suffice. Encourage the Pathfinders to make the goals DOABLE and MEASURABLE and truly OBTAINABLE with the help of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:85--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Examples:'''  &lt;br /&gt;
* I will assist two people that I would normally ignore.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will teach someone younger than me (physically or spiritually less mature) one thing I have come to know about Jesus Christ in a way that helps them hear the message effectively.&lt;br /&gt;

==1. Define the following terms by researching them in a reputable Christian literary source and discuss their meaning with your unit, instructor, or a pastor.== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Disciple=== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Disciple''' - Someone who is called by God. “During Jesus' earthly ministry, and during the days of the early church, the term that was used most frequently to designate one of Jesus' followers was &amp;quot;disciple&amp;quot; (mathetes) 262 times.” “Called to a Relationship with God. The roots of biblical discipleship go deep into the fertile soil of God's calling. That calling is expressed in the pattern of divine initiative and human response that constitutes the heart of the biblical concept of covenant, manifested in the recurrent promise, &amp;quot;I will be your God, and you shall be my people.&amp;quot; That call from Yahweh is reiterated in the call of Jesus, when he said, &amp;quot;Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest&amp;quot; ( Matt 11:28 ). God has called his people to represent him on the earth, to be with him in every circumstance of life, to be transformed in personal character to be like him. That calling is at the heart of biblical discipleship, both in the Old and New Testaments.” – Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Apostle=== &amp;lt;!--T:87--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:31--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Apostle''' - Someone who is sent out with a message. Pre-Christian use of the Greek term apostolos as one who is sent or a messenger is rare, more commonly it was referring to an ambassador or emissary. However the post-Christian use of the term is one sent to the churches by an authority with a message. The use of the word as a noun was found seventy-nine times in the New Testament (10 in the gospels, 28 times in Acts, 38 times in the Epistles, and three times in Revelation). Only once (Heb 3:1) is it used to refer directly to Christ. – Paraphrased from Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Missionary=== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Missionary -''' In Biblical literature the terms &amp;quot;apostle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;missionary&amp;quot; are the same greek word, apostolos (apostle).  In the New Testament, Apostles did missionary work.  In an era where most of the known world had never heard of Christianity, it is logical that apostle and missionary would be the same.  &lt;br /&gt;
In more modern times, a missionary is one who is an apostle (person with a message) and disciples (one who closely follows God) who feels a calling to share the message with a people group who has not yet had full exposure (or any exposure at all) to the story of Christianity.  The nation of origin is unimportant, the location of service is what makes a disciple &amp;amp; apostle a missionary.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Missionaries, apostles, and disciples ALL choose a close relationship with Jesus Christ and work to share the story of Jesus and his gift of salvation in an apologetic fashion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note:  This definition is based on the SDA Bible commentary vol 6 &amp;quot;Acts of the Apostles [https://m.egwwritings.org/search?lang=en&amp;amp;query=missionary&amp;amp;suggestion=0]&lt;br /&gt;

==2. For the following questions, provide not only the answer, but also the Bible text(s) where you found the answer(s).== &amp;lt;!--T:88--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Abram (Gen 12:1), Moses (Ex 3:10), Elisha (1 Kings 19:19), there are so many more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Most Christian denominations refer to Saul of Tarsus as the Apostle Paul. How can they be so certain of his calling?=== &amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In Acts 9:15-16 (NKJV) &lt;br /&gt;
{{Bible verse&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''The story line:'''  Paul was blinded during a vision on the road to Damascus.  Paul (Saul) had been a passionate persecutor of the Christians, and was going to Damascus to capture and destroy the Christians who had fled there.  But Jesus saw Saul's potential and called him to a life of mission service as an apostle of Jesus.  After three days of fasting and prayer in the home of Judas of Damascus, Saul/Paul accepted God's call.  Paul explains his calling, in fact gives a whole extensive story line of events that led to his leadership position as an apostle of Jesus, in [[Galatians 1-2 | https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians+1-2&amp;amp;version=NKJV]] -- but it was first declared by Jesus Christ in a vision to Paul's healer - Ananias.&lt;br /&gt;

==3. Consider the following questions and share your understanding using any creative medium (an opinion paper, a drawing, a video, a computer post with pictures, a poem, a song, a dramatic performance, etc.).== &amp;lt;!--T:91--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. At what point did Jesus’ twelve disciples transition to apostles?=== &amp;lt;!--T:92--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Can you be an apostle or a missionary without being a disciple?=== &amp;lt;!--T:93--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. What is one similarity between apostles, disciples and missionaries?=== &amp;lt;!--T:94--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. What is a similarity and a difference between an apostle, a missionary, and a prophet?=== &amp;lt;!--T:95--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Similarity''' – Called to spread the gospel of Jesus. They are followers of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Difference''' – The biblical apostles were chosen from the disciples and were commissioned by Jesus. Later apostles were appointed, like Paul, Andronicus, and Junias&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===e. Considering Matthew 28:19-20, can a true disciple follow Christ without filling some apostolic or missionary role?=== &amp;lt;!--T:96--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Read Matthew 4:18-22 and briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium the biblical account of how the first disciples were called to follow Christ. Also demonstrate the significance and impact these callings had on the future of the gospel.=== &amp;lt;!--T:98--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:99--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{Bible verse&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:63--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Jesus called out to Peter and his brother Andrew, two fishermen as they were casting their nets. They immediately left what they were doing without question to follow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
On the same account, Jesus saw James and John and called out to them. With a similar reaction, they dropped what they were doing to follow the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:65--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Teachers can '''emphasize''' the &amp;quot;leaving everything&amp;quot; or how these first disciples became major players in the ministry of the church, especially in its starts as show in Acts 1-8 and 12. Peter is a significant leader for decades, giving the key Pentacost sermon among other leadership roles. James was the first disciples to die a martyrs death, while John was the one to live the longest, contributing the Apocalyptic book Revelation (with its message for our present and future).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Read Acts 2 individually or with a group. Briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium what took place at Pentecost and determine how this event impacted the future of the Christian church.=== &amp;lt;!--T:100--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:101--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can use your personal Bible to read this chapter or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The day of Pentecost is recorded as one of the most significant acts of the Bible. The Holy Spirit came upon the disciples, baptizing them with the spirit. They were able to speak in different languages (tongues) that were clearly understood by those who witnessed firsthand the power of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:68--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:69--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The idea that Christianity was a message for &amp;quot;all nations&amp;quot; began at Pentecost, though at first, it was understood to mean that JEWS of any nation had the right to hear and understand and become Christians (at that time practiced as a sect of Judaism). However, as events unfolded (Cornelius, Paul's conversion and mission work to the gentiles) it '''''came to be understood as the opening lines for a global message that could be preached to &amp;quot;every nation, kindred, tongue, and people'''''.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==5. Read Acts 9:1-31. Based on your reading, from each of the three perspectives (Saul, Ananias, and a Christian in Jerusalem), discuss or role-play answers to the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:102--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:103--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can use your personal Bible to read these verses or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+9%3A1-31&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Could, would, or should Paul be trusted by the early Christian believers after his conversion?=== &amp;lt;!--T:104--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:76--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He was still viewed as a killer of Christians, one that could not be trusted. They looked at him as if he had a plan to kill them by becoming one of them. Barnabas assisted him in integrating into the Christian community in Jerusalem. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=acts+9%3A26-27&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway.com link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:77--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They viewed him in this fashion since he had been their persecutor prior to his conversion. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8%3A1-3&amp;amp;version=NKJV Acts 8:1-3 BibleGateway link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Must we go to God to be converted or does He come to us to offer conversion, no matter where we are or what we are doing?=== &amp;lt;!--T:105--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:78--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Many individuals live a life of sin before coming into the church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Read Chapter 2 of the book The Acts of the Apostles by Ellen G. White entitled, “The Training of the Twelve”. Individually or with a group, consider the methods Christ used to train His disciples. Determine if those exact methods would still work today, or would there be modern equivalents that could be used to train people to be disciples of God.== &amp;lt;!--T:106--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:70--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can read the chapter on your device (EGW app, app stores) or follow this link for the official [https://text.egwwritings.org/publication.php?pubtype=Book&amp;amp;bookCode=AA&amp;amp;lang=en&amp;amp;collection=2&amp;amp;section=all&amp;amp;pagenumber=17 EGW Estate writings website].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:71--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Points:'''&lt;br /&gt;
* He choose those who were not already caught up in their own philosophy.&lt;br /&gt;
* He preached to others in their presence and an example.&lt;br /&gt;
* He walked and talked with each of them.&lt;br /&gt;
* He spoke about Heaven as they listened.&lt;br /&gt;
* He did not give orders or commands, but allowed them to make decisions on their own to follow Him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. With a group, role-play a specific scene from the life of a disciple, an apostle or a missionary of your choice. Briefly explain why you chose this scene and why you think it illustrates their calling from God.== &amp;lt;!--T:107--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. From what you have learned in studying these subjects, is it possible for there to be an Apostle in the Seventh-day Adventist church today? How about during any point during the time period since the mid-1840s?== &amp;lt;!--T:108--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Illustrate through drawings, sketches, or photographs the travels of Paul as he proclaimed the gospel to the world.== &amp;lt;!--T:109--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Be sure to capture some of the cultural icons that Paul was facing while preaching Christianity to the secular gentile world. How do these differ from the secular cultural icons of today?=== &amp;lt;!--T:110--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:79--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Pathfinders are encouraged to explore the options available that would clearly outline Paul’s travels as he ministered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:80--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This can include images from FREE IMAGE websites like [http://www.flickr.com flickr.com] and Google images (tools ==&amp;gt; useage rights ==&amp;gt; labeled for reuse) [https://www.google.com/search?q=paul+apostle+missionary&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;source=lnt&amp;amp;tbs=sur:fc&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ved=0ahUKEwiEpMTk-YLWAhWM5IMKHbypBmEQpwUIHw&amp;amp;biw=1366&amp;amp;bih=589&amp;amp;dpr=1 Sample link for &amp;quot;Paul apostle missionary&amp;quot; images]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:81--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Divide the kids into groups. Have each group research pictures on four of the locations Paul stopped and download, print, or capture one or two images from each of those cities. Attach these images to a centralized map of Paul's missionary journeys.  If done digitally, a Powerpoint set of slides with one page for EACH JOURNEY would be PLENTY to fulfill this requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:82--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Take pictures of the Pathfinders &amp;quot;freeze framing&amp;quot; one scene from four of the cities Paul visited on each journey.  Attach them to a missionary journeys map, either in print or digital form. Costuming would be cool, but &amp;quot;modern interpretations&amp;quot; would also be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. All Biblical scholars agree that there were at least three Pauline missionary journeys as described in the 28 Chapters of Acts. Some Christians hold that there was a fourth and possibly a fifth journey that are alluded to in the lost chapters of Acts (29 &amp;amp; 30). Talk with your pastor and discuss how you should treat these theories and would these additional journeys in any way change or illuminate Paul’s ministry.=== &amp;lt;!--T:111--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Over a two-week process, conduct a daily self-evaluation of the quality of your discipleship for that particular day. Rate based on the statements below on a scale from 1 to 10 where ten means you are very strong in that area and one means you are weak. Contemplate your assessment, set goals for improvement, and ask Jesus to provide you the necessary strength to meet these goals.== &amp;lt;!--T:112--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your desire is to please God in all that you do.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You have a passion to share your faith with others.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You allow the Lord to lead your decision-making process.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You pray every day on a regular basis.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You spend time with the Lord through worship.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your life represents Jesus to those around you.===&lt;br /&gt;

Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” They immediately left their nets and followed Him. Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.&lt;br /&gt;

===a. List three specific roles this text defines as part of a missionary or apostolic calling.=== &amp;lt;!--T:115--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:116--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The verbs show us the roles we must take in this part of discipleship.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
GO&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
MAKE DISCIPLES&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
BAPTIZE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:58--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Put another way:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:59--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Go forth&lt;br /&gt;
*Teach, educate &lt;br /&gt;
*Baptize in the name of the Lord&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Brainstorm a list of New Testament stories that illustrate the different parts of the Great Commission.=== &amp;lt;!--T:117--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:118--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Brainstorm means to let your Pathfinders do most of the thinking with the Pathfinder leader GUIDING the discussion to keep it &amp;quot;within boundaries.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some possibilities include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Philip baptizes the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8)&lt;br /&gt;
*Peter is called, responds to, preaches to, and baptizes Cornelius the Roman centurion (Acts 10)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul travels throughout Asia Minor (Acts 13 to 26 various stories)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul is imprisoned, there is an earthquake, and as a result the jailer is baptized (Acts 16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Evaluate and list ways in which modern Christians in your area can put the Great Commission into practice.=== &amp;lt;!--T:119--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This question is wide open. The important elements are that it means stepping outside our comfort zone and sharing Jesus with people outside of our current faith community. This does NOT mean &amp;quot;give and run&amp;quot; random &amp;quot;booklet evangelism&amp;quot; but rather methods that involve all three portions of the Great Commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. Using what you’ve learned from this honor, brainstorm an idea on how you can help fulfill the Great Commission. Talk with your instructor and/or a pastor about your idea and then put this idea into practice for a period of at least one month. Share with your class, instructor, or your pastor how this activity has changed your relationship with God and whether you have seen any effects on others.=== &amp;lt;!--T:120--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:84--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Idea:'''&lt;br /&gt;
A simple page, sticky notes, or journal entry would suffice. Encourage the Pathfinders to make the goals DOABLE and MEASURABLE and truly OBTAINABLE with the help of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:85--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Examples:'''  &lt;br /&gt;
* I will assist two people that I would normally ignore.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will teach someone younger than me (physically or spiritually less mature) one thing I have come to know about Jesus Christ in a way that helps them hear the message effectively.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will spend three hours serving my public community.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will donate either time or money (specific amounts) to disaster relief in my country/region of origin.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will pray for people I am getting to know who are not currently part of my church.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will help my church with the upcoming evangelistic series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:86--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Make sure the Pathfinders have chosen goals that they can reasonably accomplish and completely accomplish. Check back in a few weeks to encourage and confirm completion of goals.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==1. Define the following terms by researching them in a reputable Christian literary source and discuss their meaning with your unit, instructor, or a pastor.== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Disciple=== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Disciple''' - Someone who is called by God. “During Jesus' earthly ministry, and during the days of the early church, the term that was used most frequently to designate one of Jesus' followers was &amp;quot;disciple&amp;quot; (mathetes) 262 times.” “Called to a Relationship with God. The roots of biblical discipleship go deep into the fertile soil of God's calling. That calling is expressed in the pattern of divine initiative and human response that constitutes the heart of the biblical concept of covenant, manifested in the recurrent promise, &amp;quot;I will be your God, and you shall be my people.&amp;quot; That call from Yahweh is reiterated in the call of Jesus, when he said, &amp;quot;Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest&amp;quot; ( Matt 11:28 ). God has called his people to represent him on the earth, to be with him in every circumstance of life, to be transformed in personal character to be like him. That calling is at the heart of biblical discipleship, both in the Old and New Testaments.” – Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Apostle=== &amp;lt;!--T:87--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:31--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Apostle''' - Someone who is sent out with a message. Pre-Christian use of the Greek term apostolos as one who is sent or a messenger is rare, more commonly it was referring to an ambassador or emissary. However the post-Christian use of the term is one sent to the churches by an authority with a message. The use of the word as a noun was found seventy-nine times in the New Testament (10 in the gospels, 28 times in Acts, 38 times in the Epistles, and three times in Revelation). Only once (Heb 3:1) is it used to refer directly to Christ. – Paraphrased from Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Missionary=== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Missionary -''' In Biblical literature the terms &amp;quot;apostle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;missionary&amp;quot; are the same greek word, apostolos (apostle).  In the New Testament, Apostles did missionary work.  In an era where most of the known world had never heard of Christianity, it is logical that apostle and missionary would be the same.  &lt;br /&gt;
In more modern times, a missionary is one who is an apostle (person with a message) and disciples (one who closely follows God) who feels a calling to share the message with a people group who has not yet had full exposure (or any exposure at all) to the story of Christianity.  The nation of origin is unimportant, the location of service is what makes a disciple &amp;amp; apostle a missionary.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Missionaries, apostles, and disciples ALL choose a close relationship with Jesus Christ and work to share the story of Jesus and his gift of salvation in an apologetic fashion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note:  This definition is based on the SDA Bible commentary vol 6 &amp;quot;Acts of the Apostles [https://m.egwwritings.org/search?lang=en&amp;amp;query=missionary&amp;amp;suggestion=0]&lt;br /&gt;

==2. For the following questions, provide not only the answer, but also the Bible text(s) where you found the answer(s).== &amp;lt;!--T:88--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Name at least two Old Testament disciples.=== &amp;lt;!--T:6--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:51--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Abram (Gen 12:1), Moses (Ex 3:10), Elisha (1 Kings 19:19), there are so many more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Most Christian denominations refer to Saul of Tarsus as the Apostle Paul. How can they be so certain of his calling?=== &amp;lt;!--T:7--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In Acts 9:15-16 (NKJV) &amp;quot;15 But the Lord said to him, 'Go, for he is a chosen vessel of Mine to bear My name before Gentiles, kings, and the children[c] of Israel. 16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for My name’s sake.'&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline:  Paul was blinded during a vision on the road to Damascus.  Paul (Saul) had been a passionate persecuter of the Christians, and was going to Damascus to capture and destroy the Christians who had fled there.  But Jesus saw Saul's potential and called him to a life of mission service as an apostle of Jesus.  After three days of fasting and prayer in the home of Judas of Damascus, Saul/Paul accepted God's call.  Paul explains his calling, in fact gives a whole extensive storyline of events that led to his leadership position as an apostle of Jesus, in [Galatians 1-2.]https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians+1-2&amp;amp;version=NKJV -- but it was first declared by Jesus Christ in a vision to Paul's healer - Annanias in this passage.&lt;br /&gt;

==3. Consider the following questions and share your understanding using any creative medium (an opinion paper, a drawing, a video, a computer post with pictures, a poem, a song, a dramatic performance, etc.).== &amp;lt;!--T:91--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. At what point did Jesus’ twelve disciples transition to apostles?=== &amp;lt;!--T:92--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Can you be an apostle or a missionary without being a disciple?=== &amp;lt;!--T:93--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. What is one similarity between apostles, disciples and missionaries?=== &amp;lt;!--T:94--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. What is a similarity and a difference between an apostle, a missionary, and a prophet?=== &amp;lt;!--T:95--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:52--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Similarity''' – Called to spread the gospel of Jesus. They are followers of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:53--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Difference''' – The biblical apostles were chosen from the disciples and were commissioned by Jesus. Later apostles were appointed, like Paul, Andronicus, and Junias&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===e. Considering Matthew 28:19-20, can a true disciple follow Christ without filling some apostolic or missionary role?=== &amp;lt;!--T:96--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:64--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:66--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Teachers can '''emphasize''' the &amp;quot;leaving everything&amp;quot; or how these first disciples became major players in the ministry of the church, especially in its starts as show in Acts 1-8 and 12. Peter is a significant leader for decades, giving the key Pentacost sermon among other leadership roles. James was the first disciples to die a martyrs death, while John was the one to live the longest, contributing the Apocalyptic book Revelation (with its message for our present and future).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Read Acts 2 individually or with a group. Briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium what took place at Pentecost and determine how this event impacted the future of the Christian church.=== &amp;lt;!--T:100--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You can use your personal Bible to read this chapter or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The day of Pentecost is recorded as one of the most significant acts of the Bible. The Holy Spirit came upon the disciples, baptizing them with the spirit. They were able to speak in different languages (tongues) that were clearly understood by those who witnessed firsthand the power of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:68--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:69--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The idea that Christianity was a message for &amp;quot;all nations&amp;quot; began at Pentecost, though at first, it was understood to mean that JEWS of any nation had the right to hear and understand and become Christians (at that time practiced as a sect of Judaism). However, as events unfolded (Cornelius, Paul's conversion and mission work to the gentiles) it '''''came to be understood as the opening lines for a global message that could be preached to &amp;quot;every nation, kindred, tongue, and people'''''.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==5. Read Acts 9:1-31. Based on your reading, from each of the three perspectives (Saul, Ananias, and a Christian in Jerusalem), discuss or role-play answers to the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:102--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:103--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Could, would, or should Paul be trusted by the early Christian believers after his conversion?=== &amp;lt;!--T:104--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:76--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He was still viewed as a killer of Christians, one that could not be trusted. They looked at him as if he had a plan to kill them by becoming one of them. Barnabas assisted him in integrating into the Christian community in Jerusalem. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=acts+9%3A26-27&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway.com link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:77--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They viewed him in this fashion since he had been their persecutor prior to his conversion. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8%3A1-3&amp;amp;version=NKJV Acts 8:1-3 BibleGateway link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Must we go to God to be converted or does He come to us to offer conversion, no matter where we are or what we are doing?=== &amp;lt;!--T:105--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:78--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Many individuals live a life of sin before coming into the church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Read Chapter 2 of the book The Acts of the Apostles by Ellen G. White entitled, “The Training of the Twelve”. Individually or with a group, consider the methods Christ used to train His disciples. Determine if those exact methods would still work today, or would there be modern equivalents that could be used to train people to be disciples of God.== &amp;lt;!--T:106--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* He preached to others in their presence and an example.&lt;br /&gt;
* He walked and talked with each of them.&lt;br /&gt;
* He spoke about Heaven as they listened.&lt;br /&gt;
* He did not give orders or commands, but allowed them to make decisions on their own to follow Him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. With a group, role-play a specific scene from the life of a disciple, an apostle or a missionary of your choice. Briefly explain why you chose this scene and why you think it illustrates their calling from God.== &amp;lt;!--T:107--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. From what you have learned in studying these subjects, is it possible for there to be an Apostle in the Seventh-day Adventist church today? How about during any point during the time period since the mid-1840s?== &amp;lt;!--T:108--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Illustrate through drawings, sketches, or photographs the travels of Paul as he proclaimed the gospel to the world.== &amp;lt;!--T:109--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Be sure to capture some of the cultural icons that Paul was facing while preaching Christianity to the secular gentile world. How do these differ from the secular cultural icons of today?=== &amp;lt;!--T:110--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:79--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Pathfinders are encouraged to explore the options available that would clearly outline Paul’s travels as he ministered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:80--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This can include images from FREE IMAGE websites like [http://www.flickr.com flickr.com] and Google images (tools ==&amp;gt; useage rights ==&amp;gt; labeled for reuse) [https://www.google.com/search?q=paul+apostle+missionary&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;source=lnt&amp;amp;tbs=sur:fc&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ved=0ahUKEwiEpMTk-YLWAhWM5IMKHbypBmEQpwUIHw&amp;amp;biw=1366&amp;amp;bih=589&amp;amp;dpr=1 Sample link for &amp;quot;Paul apostle missionary&amp;quot; images]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:81--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Divide the kids into groups. Have each group research pictures on four of the locations Paul stopped and download, print, or capture one or two images from each of those cities. Attach these images to a centralized map of Paul's missionary journeys.  If done digitally, a Powerpoint set of slides with one page for EACH JOURNEY would be PLENTY to fulfill this requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:82--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Take pictures of the Pathfinders &amp;quot;freeze framing&amp;quot; one scene from four of the cities Paul visited on each journey.  Attach them to a missionary journeys map, either in print or digital form. Costuming would be cool, but &amp;quot;modern interpretations&amp;quot; would also be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. All Biblical scholars agree that there were at least three Pauline missionary journeys as described in the 28 Chapters of Acts. Some Christians hold that there was a fourth and possibly a fifth journey that are alluded to in the lost chapters of Acts (29 &amp;amp; 30). Talk with your pastor and discuss how you should treat these theories and would these additional journeys in any way change or illuminate Paul’s ministry.=== &amp;lt;!--T:111--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Over a two-week process, conduct a daily self-evaluation of the quality of your discipleship for that particular day. Rate based on the statements below on a scale from 1 to 10 where ten means you are very strong in that area and one means you are weak. Contemplate your assessment, set goals for improvement, and ask Jesus to provide you the necessary strength to meet these goals.== &amp;lt;!--T:112--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your desire is to please God in all that you do.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You have a passion to share your faith with others.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You allow the Lord to lead your decision-making process.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You pray every day on a regular basis.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You spend time with the Lord through worship.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your life represents Jesus to those around you.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You reach out to those who are less fortunate than you.===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==11. State the Great Commission, as outlined in Matthew 28:19-20.== &amp;lt;!--T:113--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Great Commission is the concluding statement of Jesus to His disciples and gives a command to His disciples.  &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:116--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The verbs show us the roles we must take in this part of discipleship.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
GO&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
MAKE DISCIPLES&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
BAPTIZE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:58--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Put another way:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:59--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Go forth&lt;br /&gt;
*Teach, educate &lt;br /&gt;
*Baptize in the name of the Lord&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Brainstorm a list of New Testament stories that illustrate the different parts of the Great Commission.=== &amp;lt;!--T:117--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:118--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Brainstorm means to let your Pathfinders do most of the thinking with the Pathfinder leader GUIDING the discussion to keep it &amp;quot;within boundaries.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some possibilities include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Philip baptizes the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8)&lt;br /&gt;
*Peter is called, responds to, preaches to, and baptizes Cornelius the Roman centurion (Acts 10)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul travels throughout Asia Minor (Acts 13 to 26 various stories)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul is imprisoned, there is an earthquake, and as a result the jailer is baptized (Acts 16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Evaluate and list ways in which modern Christians in your area can put the Great Commission into practice.=== &amp;lt;!--T:119--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This question is wide open. The important elements are that it means stepping outside our comfort zone and sharing Jesus with people outside of our current faith community. This does NOT mean &amp;quot;give and run&amp;quot; random &amp;quot;booklet evangelism&amp;quot; but rather methods that involve all three portions of the Great Commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. Using what you’ve learned from this honor, brainstorm an idea on how you can help fulfill the Great Commission. Talk with your instructor and/or a pastor about your idea and then put this idea into practice for a period of at least one month. Share with your class, instructor, or your pastor how this activity has changed your relationship with God and whether you have seen any effects on others.=== &amp;lt;!--T:120--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:84--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Idea:'''&lt;br /&gt;
A simple page, sticky notes, or journal entry would suffice. Encourage the Pathfinders to make the goals DOABLE and MEASURABLE and truly OBTAINABLE with the help of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:85--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Examples:'''  &lt;br /&gt;
* I will assist two people that I would normally ignore.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will teach someone younger than me (physically or spiritually less mature) one thing I have come to know about Jesus Christ in a way that helps them hear the message effectively.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will spend three hours serving my public community.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will donate either time or money (specific amounts) to disaster relief in my country/region of origin.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will pray for people I am getting to know who are not currently part of my church.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will help my church with the upcoming evangelistic series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:86--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Make sure the Pathfinders have chosen goals that they can reasonably accomplish and completely accomplish. Check back in a few weeks to encourage and confirm completion of goals.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==1. Define the following terms by researching them in a reputable Christian literary source and discuss their meaning with your unit, instructor, or a pastor.== &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Disciple=== &amp;lt;!--T:4--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:30--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Disciple''' - Someone who is called by God. “During Jesus' earthly ministry, and during the days of the early church, the term that was used most frequently to designate one of Jesus' followers was &amp;quot;disciple&amp;quot; (mathetes) 262 times.” “Called to a Relationship with God. The roots of biblical discipleship go deep into the fertile soil of God's calling. That calling is expressed in the pattern of divine initiative and human response that constitutes the heart of the biblical concept of covenant, manifested in the recurrent promise, &amp;quot;I will be your God, and you shall be my people.&amp;quot; That call from Yahweh is reiterated in the call of Jesus, when he said, &amp;quot;Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest&amp;quot; ( Matt 11:28 ). God has called his people to represent him on the earth, to be with him in every circumstance of life, to be transformed in personal character to be like him. That calling is at the heart of biblical discipleship, both in the Old and New Testaments.” – Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Apostle=== &amp;lt;!--T:87--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:31--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Apostle''' - Someone who is sent out with a message. Pre-Christian use of the Greek term apostolos as one who is sent or a messenger is rare, more commonly it was referring to an ambassador or emissary. However the post-Christian use of the term is one sent to the churches by an authority with a message. The use of the word as a noun was found seventy-nine times in the New Testament (10 in the gospels, 28 times in Acts, 38 times in the Epistles, and three times in Revelation). Only once (Heb 3:1) is it used to refer directly to Christ. – Paraphrased from Baker’s Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Missionary=== &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Missionary -''' In Biblical literature the terms &amp;quot;apostle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;missionary&amp;quot; are the same greek word, apostolos (apostle).  In the New Testament, Apostles did missionary work.  In an era where most of the known world had never heard of Christianity, it is logical that apostle and missionary would be the same.  &lt;br /&gt;
In more modern times, a missionary is one who is an apostle (person with a message) and disciples (one who closely follows God) who feels a calling to share the message with a people group who has not yet had full exposure (or any exposure at all) to the story of Christianity.  The nation of origin is unimportant, the location of service is what makes a disciple &amp;amp; apostle a missionary.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Missionaries, apostles, and disciples ALL choose a close relationship with Jesus Christ and work to share the story of Jesus and his gift of salvation in an apologetic fashion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note:  This definition is based on the SDA Bible commentary vol 6 &amp;quot;Acts of the Apostles [https://m.egwwritings.org/search?lang=en&amp;amp;query=missionary&amp;amp;suggestion=0]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Teachers can '''emphasize''' the &amp;quot;leaving everything&amp;quot; or how these first disciples became major players in the ministry of the church, especially in its starts as show in Acts 1-8 and 12. Peter is a significant leader for decades, giving the key Pentacost sermon among other leadership roles. James was the first disciples to die a martyrs death, while John was the one to live the longest, contributing the Apocalyptic book Revelation (with its message for our present and future).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Read Acts 2 individually or with a group. Briefly describe or demonstrate through a creative medium what took place at Pentecost and determine how this event impacted the future of the Christian church.=== &amp;lt;!--T:100--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:101--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can use your personal Bible to read this chapter or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:67--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The day of Pentecost is recorded as one of the most significant acts of the Bible. The Holy Spirit came upon the disciples, baptizing them with the spirit. They were able to speak in different languages (tongues) that were clearly understood by those who witnessed firsthand the power of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:68--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching point:'''  DEMONSTRATE could mean a &amp;quot;drawing&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;presentation&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;diorama&amp;quot; type of project that not only tells their story way back then, but also the EFFECT that their choice makes on our lives and hearts today.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:69--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The idea that Christianity was a message for &amp;quot;all nations&amp;quot; began at Pentecost, though at first, it was understood to mean that JEWS of any nation had the right to hear and understand and become Christians (at that time practiced as a sect of Judaism). However, as events unfolded (Cornelius, Paul's conversion and mission work to the gentiles) it '''''came to be understood as the opening lines for a global message that could be preached to &amp;quot;every nation, kindred, tongue, and people'''''.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==5. Read Acts 9:1-31. Based on your reading, from each of the three perspectives (Saul, Ananias, and a Christian in Jerusalem), discuss or role-play answers to the following:== &amp;lt;!--T:102--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You can use your personal Bible to read these verses or find it online at [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+9%3A1-31&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Could, would, or should Paul be trusted by the early Christian believers after his conversion?=== &amp;lt;!--T:104--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:76--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He was still viewed as a killer of Christians, one that could not be trusted. They looked at him as if he had a plan to kill them by becoming one of them. Barnabas assisted him in integrating into the Christian community in Jerusalem. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=acts+9%3A26-27&amp;amp;version=NKJV BibleGateway.com link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:77--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They viewed him in this fashion since he had been their persecutor prior to his conversion. [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8%3A1-3&amp;amp;version=NKJV Acts 8:1-3 BibleGateway link]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Must we go to God to be converted or does He come to us to offer conversion, no matter where we are or what we are doing?=== &amp;lt;!--T:105--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:78--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Many individuals live a life of sin before coming into the church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Read Chapter 2 of the book The Acts of the Apostles by Ellen G. White entitled, “The Training of the Twelve”. Individually or with a group, consider the methods Christ used to train His disciples. Determine if those exact methods would still work today, or would there be modern equivalents that could be used to train people to be disciples of God.== &amp;lt;!--T:106--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:71--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Points:'''&lt;br /&gt;
* He choose those who were not already caught up in their own philosophy.&lt;br /&gt;
* He preached to others in their presence and an example.&lt;br /&gt;
* He walked and talked with each of them.&lt;br /&gt;
* He spoke about Heaven as they listened.&lt;br /&gt;
* He did not give orders or commands, but allowed them to make decisions on their own to follow Him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==7. With a group, role-play a specific scene from the life of a disciple, an apostle or a missionary of your choice. Briefly explain why you chose this scene and why you think it illustrates their calling from God.== &amp;lt;!--T:107--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==8. From what you have learned in studying these subjects, is it possible for there to be an Apostle in the Seventh-day Adventist church today? How about during any point during the time period since the mid-1840s?== &amp;lt;!--T:108--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Illustrate through drawings, sketches, or photographs the travels of Paul as he proclaimed the gospel to the world.== &amp;lt;!--T:109--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===a. Be sure to capture some of the cultural icons that Paul was facing while preaching Christianity to the secular gentile world. How do these differ from the secular cultural icons of today?=== &amp;lt;!--T:110--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:79--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Pathfinders are encouraged to explore the options available that would clearly outline Paul’s travels as he ministered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:80--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This can include images from FREE IMAGE websites like [http://www.flickr.com flickr.com] and Google images (tools ==&amp;gt; useage rights ==&amp;gt; labeled for reuse) [https://www.google.com/search?q=paul+apostle+missionary&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;source=lnt&amp;amp;tbs=sur:fc&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ved=0ahUKEwiEpMTk-YLWAhWM5IMKHbypBmEQpwUIHw&amp;amp;biw=1366&amp;amp;bih=589&amp;amp;dpr=1 Sample link for &amp;quot;Paul apostle missionary&amp;quot; images]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:81--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Divide the kids into groups. Have each group research pictures on four of the locations Paul stopped and download, print, or capture one or two images from each of those cities. Attach these images to a centralized map of Paul's missionary journeys.  If done digitally, a Powerpoint set of slides with one page for EACH JOURNEY would be PLENTY to fulfill this requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:82--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching idea:''' Take pictures of the Pathfinders &amp;quot;freeze framing&amp;quot; one scene from four of the cities Paul visited on each journey.  Attach them to a missionary journeys map, either in print or digital form. Costuming would be cool, but &amp;quot;modern interpretations&amp;quot; would also be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. All Biblical scholars agree that there were at least three Pauline missionary journeys as described in the 28 Chapters of Acts. Some Christians hold that there was a fourth and possibly a fifth journey that are alluded to in the lost chapters of Acts (29 &amp;amp; 30). Talk with your pastor and discuss how you should treat these theories and would these additional journeys in any way change or illuminate Paul’s ministry.=== &amp;lt;!--T:111--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==10. Over a two-week process, conduct a daily self-evaluation of the quality of your discipleship for that particular day. Rate based on the statements below on a scale from 1 to 10 where ten means you are very strong in that area and one means you are weak. Contemplate your assessment, set goals for improvement, and ask Jesus to provide you the necessary strength to meet these goals.== &amp;lt;!--T:112--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your desire is to please God in all that you do.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You have a passion to share your faith with others.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You allow the Lord to lead your decision-making process.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You pray every day on a regular basis.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You spend time with the Lord through worship.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● Your life represents Jesus to those around you.===&lt;br /&gt;
=== ● You reach out to those who are less fortunate than you.===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==11. State the Great Commission, as outlined in Matthew 28:19-20.== &amp;lt;!--T:113--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:55--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Great Commission is the concluding statement of Jesus to His disciples and gives a command to His disciples.  &lt;br /&gt;
BibleGateway.com has over 200 versions and thus a variety of ways to read this text.  &lt;br /&gt;
The link shares three common versions - NKJV (Pathfinder Bible), NIV (normal read for many people in North America), and CSB (a new version copyrighted 2017)&lt;br /&gt;

Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” They immediately left their nets and followed Him. Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===a. List three specific roles this text defines as part of a missionary or apostolic calling.=== &amp;lt;!--T:115--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:116--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The verbs show us the roles we must take in this part of discipleship.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
GO&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
MAKE DISCIPLES&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
BAPTIZE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:58--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Put another way:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:59--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Go forth&lt;br /&gt;
*Teach, educate &lt;br /&gt;
*Baptize in the name of the Lord&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===b. Brainstorm a list of New Testament stories that illustrate the different parts of the Great Commission.=== &amp;lt;!--T:117--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:118--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Brainstorm means to let your Pathfinders do most of the thinking with the Pathfinder leader GUIDING the discussion to keep it &amp;quot;within boundaries.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:60--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some possibilities include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:61--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Philip baptizes the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8)&lt;br /&gt;
*Peter is called, responds to, preaches to, and baptizes Cornelius the Roman centurion (Acts 10)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul travels throughout Asia Minor (Acts 13 to 26 various stories)&lt;br /&gt;
*Paul is imprisoned, there is an earthquake, and as a result the jailer is baptized (Acts 16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===c. Evaluate and list ways in which modern Christians in your area can put the Great Commission into practice.=== &amp;lt;!--T:119--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:62--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This question is wide open. The important elements are that it means stepping outside our comfort zone and sharing Jesus with people outside of our current faith community. This does NOT mean &amp;quot;give and run&amp;quot; random &amp;quot;booklet evangelism&amp;quot; but rather methods that involve all three portions of the Great Commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===d. Using what you’ve learned from this honor, brainstorm an idea on how you can help fulfill the Great Commission. Talk with your instructor and/or a pastor about your idea and then put this idea into practice for a period of at least one month. Share with your class, instructor, or your pastor how this activity has changed your relationship with God and whether you have seen any effects on others.=== &amp;lt;!--T:120--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:84--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Teaching Idea:'''&lt;br /&gt;
A simple page, sticky notes, or journal entry would suffice. Encourage the Pathfinders to make the goals DOABLE and MEASURABLE and truly OBTAINABLE with the help of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:85--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Examples:'''  &lt;br /&gt;
* I will assist two people that I would normally ignore.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will teach someone younger than me (physically or spiritually less mature) one thing I have come to know about Jesus Christ in a way that helps them hear the message effectively.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will spend three hours serving my public community.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will donate either time or money (specific amounts) to disaster relief in my country/region of origin.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will pray for people I am getting to know who are not currently part of my church.&lt;br /&gt;
* I will help my church with the upcoming evangelistic series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--T:86--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Make sure the Pathfinders have chosen goals that they can reasonably accomplish and completely accomplish. Check back in a few weeks to encourage and confirm completion of goals.&lt;br /&gt;
