So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified.

{Akers Follett SSL Study Group:474} Praise God!

I have two things to praise God for:   As some of you know, I have been going downhill rapidly the past 5 weeks.  My stomach so big I thought it would burst.  It got to the point that I could do very little around the house.  Dennis has been pushing me to get someone to see that I do the juicing, etc., and I finally agreed to look for someone.  I called Earnest Clark who is in charge of the visitation group at the church.  He had the name of a woman who had called him several months ago.  Christine Payne was sent to me by God, I am sure.  She is not only taking good care of me, but is willing to help me with some of my housework.  And, she is a nurse!  Used to nurse up at Wildwood.  She is a little younger than me, and I loved her immediately.   Yesterday she took me to Memorial where my doctor had ordered the draining of the extra liquid that was making my stomach swell.  They removed 53 liters of liquid from my abdomen.  A liter is a litter more than a quart.  I felt so much better afterwards that I almost sang to the nurses and technicions.  There is a temporary pain where they put a catheter, but it is already better this morning.  The catheter is there to drain off new liquid so I won't have to go through the other procedure again.   I am supposed to rest at home today and tomorrow, so I won't see you at Sabbath School.  But, praise God, I should be able to come after that.   Carol Pettibone

The First Fearful Experience

Read Genesis 3:6–10. It is difficult to relate to Adam and Eve’s first encounter with fear, because none of us can remember the first time we experienced this emotion. Developmental psychologists have confirmed that infants from early life face definite fears, mostly of going hungry and of sharp noises. Growing children and adolescents go through a variety of fears, as well: fear of animals, of darkness, of being alone; fear of school-related situations, separation from parents, fear of not growing up, or of being rejected by peers. Adults also are subject to common apprehensions associated with their particular life circumstances: fear of not finding a suitable life partner, of not finding the right job, of terrorist attacks, of contracting a chronic or fatal disease, of being assaulted, of dying, etc.

Ellen G. White says that after Adam ate the forbidden fruit, “the thought of his sin filled him with terror” and that the mild temperature of Eden chilled the guilty couple. They were left with “a sense of sin, a dread of the future, a nakedness of soul.”—Patriarchs and Prophets, p. 57.

Consider the following sample of promises against fear and anxiety. Identify the distinctive component of each of them.

• Ps. 23:4
  

---

• Prov. 1:33

• Hag. 2:5
  

---

• 1 Pet. 3:14

• 1 John 4:18, 19

Fear and anxiety are very common. They also are frequent, destructive, and painful. Common anxiety symptoms include apprehension, worry, insomnia, jitters, tension, headaches, fatigue, dizziness, palpitations, breathlessness, sweating, difficulty in concentrating, and hypervigilance. Anxiety also may come with panic attacks. God is interested in freeing us from such undesirable experiences and invites us to trust in Him.

What things make you especially afraid, and why? How rational is your fear? What practical steps can you take either to remove the thing that makes you afraid or to alleviate the fear itself?

E. G. White Notes for the Adult Bible Study Guide

Sunday, January 2: The First Fearful Experience

When Adam and Eve realized how exalted and sacred was the law of God, the transgression of which made so costly a sacrifice necessary to save them and their posterity from utter ruin, they pleaded to die themselves, or to let them and their posterity endure the penalty of their transgression, rather than that the beloved Son of God should make this great sacrifice. The anguish of Adam was increased. He saw that his sins were of so great magnitude as to involve fearful consequences. And must it be that heaven’s honored Commander, who had walked with him and talked with him while in his holy innocence, whom angels honored and worshiped, must be brought down from His exalted position to die because of his transgression? {LHU 23.5}

After Adam had sinned, a feeling of terror seized him. A constant dread was upon him; shame and remorse tortured his soul. In this state of mind he wished to be as far removed as possible from the presence of God, whom he had so loved to meet in his Eden home. But the Lord followed this conscience-stricken man, and while he condemned the sin of which Adam had been guilty, gave him words of gracious promise. In pronouncing the curse upon the deceiver, God had said: “I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” {ST December 23, 1886 par. 4}
