1953 Outline of Davidic-Levidical InstituteBIBLE DOCTRINES COURSE
Davidic-Levitical
Institute Mt. Carmel
Center Waco, Texas 1. The purpose of each class; a. Freshman classis designed for those who need to gain a foundation of fundamental Seventh-day Adventist doctrines. For those who need it or may wish to take it as a refresher course. b. Intermediate class for those who need to learn the Davidian doctrines and how to present them. c. Senior class for those who already know the message, but who need special Instructions for fieldwork, ect. It is also for those who require help only in organizing and giving studies and who are assigned to intermediate class for a few weeks to learn this phase after which they will be transferred to the senior class. For this reason the senior class will start at a later date than March. 9 2. It is important that each student keep his notebook up to date. The instructor is to check on this daily when the roll call is taken. 3. Class periods are for students' recitation and the teacher's constructive criticism and are not to be taken up in lecturing to the students; studying is to be done outside of class. Students are not to be told ahead who is to recite at the next class period. 4. The instructor is to correct the students on the following: a. Form b. Continuity c. Clarity d. Keeping on the subject e. Delivery f. Tact 5. Except as indicated in no. 6, the material in the Davidian publications the message of the hour-is what is to be studied and used. Various supplementary helps may be good but are unnecessary. (A list of the Spirit of Prophecy books most quoted is present Truth Literature is giving in Part 3. If the present truth student becomes volumes he will be well armed.) 6. Following is a list of chapters from the Bible Reading to be covered in the Freshman Class. The students are to study and be prepared for either oral or written quizzes in class an the instructor shall choose. In assigning the material listed blow it may not be necessary to take up every topic or question in the chapters listed, at least not in class, but only as much as will assure a through understanding of the subject under discussion. Those Seventh-day Adventist doctrines which have been especially amplified by present truth, and which are therefore included in the Intermediate class, have been omitted from the Freshman Class. (However, when such subjects are studied in the Intermediate Class, if a student is not familiar with Seventh-day Adventist teaching of them, he might profitably study them from Bible readings in connection with present truth, so that he might know wherein the Davidian message differs from Seventh-day Adventist teachings as well as to acquire a foundation in fundamental Seventh-day Adventist doctrines. The Instructor should be prepare to point out to the students what is erroneous and why.) Freshman Class Text: Bible Readings for the Home: Chapter for the study: The Bible, Its origin, history, and place in the world Part I. The bible: how to study and understand it Part 2. Sin; its origin, results, and remedy Part 3. The way to Christ Part 8. The Law of God Part 9. The Sabbath Part 11. Life only in Christ Part 12. Christian Growth and Experience 7. Keep on the Subject. It is impossible to divorce some present Truth subject from others and therefore there is much overlapping of material. In studying one particular subject it is often necessary to refer to another; however, when such is the case, it is important to stick with what the text material says on the subject being studied. The related doctrines will each be studied in detail in the turn. Example: Subject: Religion Text Material: Timely Greetings, Vol. 2 #34 (In the studying this article it would be easy to get into a discussion of the Kingdom but that is not the subject being studied.) 1953 Outline of Davidic-Levitical InstituteBIBLE DOCTRINES COURSE

5. Meeting Opposition
Follow Christ’s example. Be used a different procedure with the common people than H~ did with the Scribes sin Pharisees.
-28- a. With the common people He wee over gentle and pa- tient; He never condemned them, but kindly painted out the way of salvation.
b. It was another story with the Scribes and rulers; they were not ignorant of the Saviour’s work and mission and their questions were for the most part merely traps. With them Christ was plain and even cutting at times. Rather than answering their “trap” questions He first gave them a question to answer. His ministers are to do likewise.
If you perceive that one is asking you a “trap” question, before you answer his question, first give him a question on some point that is irrefutable.
Don’t be discourteous, but neither let them make you appear foolish.
In dealing with those who are opposed, and especially the ministers, hold them to one point; don’t let them jump around. Familiarize yourself with a few pertinent references and if they can’t see light in one or at the most two, don’t waste your time with them.
Examples: Jer. 30:1—3 (or one of many other definite and specific references on the Kingdom)
Isa. 66:15—21
