In the Sabbath afternoon section, the author said the following:
This week's lesson also could have been titled "Thoughts, Words, Actions," for it deals with all three. Solomon talks about our thoughts, he talks about our words, and he talks about our actions, though not exactly in that order. Of course, in one sense, if you cover thoughts, words, and actions, there's isn't much left, is there?

The following from Sunday's section may also help answer the question I asked:
Last week we talked a little about how in this life we have to make the choices that will, in the end, determine our eternal destiny. But many times our choices also have much more immediate consequences. How often someone can, in a weak and unguarded moment, make a choice that brings sudden and painful consequences. What makes these events even more tragic is that so often those who make those wrong choices can be "good" people, faithful and honorable souls who, as we all do, slip and fall. In one sense the more honorable, exalted, and esteemed the person is, the more responsibility upon that person to weigh his or her decisions carefully.

This one jumped out at me. Is it true that slipping and falling are inevitable? Do we all do it? Or is it possible to come to the point where we don't?

There is no excuse for any one in taking the position that there is no more truth to be revealed, and that all our expositions of Scripture are without an error. The fact that certain doctrines have been held as truth for many years by our people, is not a proof that our ideas are infallible. Age will not make error into truth, and truth can afford to be fair. No true doctrine will lose anything by close investigation. RH 12/20/1892

This one pops out at me in Sunday's section:
A man works many years for the Lord only to, in a weak moment, make a mistake, perhaps a moral fall, and then-suddenly his ministry is, if not ruined, then certainly damaged.

Those are good questions. Even after the 144,000 have reached that point, they will still be agonizing over whether or not they confessed all their sins to God. That doesnt sound very much like the rest promised by Jesus does it? Mat 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Mat 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. Mat 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Galatians 2
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
It is so hazardous to take here a little and there a little. If you put the right little's together you can make the bible teach anything you wish. //Graham Maxwell
