"The Sabbath-school affords to parents and children a precious opportunity for the study of God’s Word.
But in order to gain that benefit which they should gain in the Sabbath-school, both parents and children should devote time to the study of the lessons, seeking to obtain a thorough knowledge of the facts presented, and also of the spiritual truths which these facts are designed to teach."...…..Testimonies on Sabbath School Work...Page 10
