NO
CHANGE IN THE MESSAGES—“There
is no change in the messages that God has sent in the past. The work in
the cities is the essential work for this time. When the cities are worked
as God would have them, the result will be the setting in operation of a
mighty movement such as we have not yet witnessed.”—Medical
Ministry, 304.
EVERY
TRUE REFORM HAS ITS PLACE—“Every
true reform has its place in the work of the third angel’s message.
Especially does the temperance reform demand our attention and support.”—Counsels
on Health, 433.
LOOKING
FOR HIS SOON APPEARING—“Sabbathkeepers
who are looking for the soon appearing of their Saviour should be the last
to manifest a lack of interest in this great work of (health) reform. Men
and women must be instructed, and ministers and people should feel that
the burden of the work rests upon them to agitate the subject and urge it
home upon others.”—1 Testimonies, 489.
THE
LONG NEGLECTED WORK—THE LAST CALL TO THE SUPPER—“Again
and again the Lord has pointed out the work which the church in Battle
Creek and those all through America are to do. They are to reach a much
higher standard in spiritual advancement than they have yet reached. They
are to awake out of sleep, and go without the camp, working for souls that
are ready to perish. The medical missionary workers are doing the
long-neglected work which God gave to the church.”—8 Testimonies,
70-71.
THE
ONLY WORK THAT WILL SOON BE DONE—“My
heart is made sad as I look at our churches, which ought to be connected
in heart and soul and practice with the medical missionary work . . I wish
to tell you that soon there will be no work done in ministerial lines but
medical missionary work.”—Counsels on Health, 533.
WHY
IT IS YET IN ITS INFANCY—“Medical
missionary work is yet in its infancy. The meaning of genuine medical
missionary work is known by but few. Why?—Because the Saviour’s plan
of work has not been followed. God’s money has been misapplied.”—A
Call to Medical Evangelism 10.
THE
NEW ELEMENT THAT IS NEEDED—“A
new element needs to be brought into the work. God’s people must receive
the warning, and work for souls right where they are . . As He (Christ)
went from place to place He blessed and comforted the suffering and healed
the sick. This is our work. God would have us relieve the necessities of
the destitute. The reason that the Lord does not manifest His power more
decidedly is because there is so little spirituality among those who claim
to believe the truth.”—Medical Ministry, 319.
THE
WORK TO BE DONE—“There
is a work to be done by our churches that few have any idea of. ‘I was
an hungered,’ Christ says, ‘and ye gave Me meat; I was thirsty, and ye
gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took Me in; naked, and ye clothed
Me; I was sick, and ye visited Me . .
There is a work, as yet untouched, that must be done. The mission
of Christ was to heal the sick, encourage the hopeless, bind up the
brokenhearted. This work of restoration is to be carried on.”—A
Call to Medical Evangelism, 22-23.
MANY
WILL BE WAITING—“I
was shown God’s people waiting for some change to take place,—a
compelling power to take hold of them. But they will be disappointed, for
they are wrong. They must act; they must take hold of the work themselves,
and earnestly cry to God for a true knowledge of themselves. The scenes
which are passing before us are of sufficient magnitude to cause us to
arouse and urge the truth home to the hearts of all who will listen. The
harvest of the earth is nearly ripe.”—1 Testimonies, 261.
SOMEONE
MUST FULFILL THE COMMISSION—“Why
has it not been understood from the Word of God that the work being done
in medical missionary lines is a fulfillment of the Scripture. [So that
servant came and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the
house being angry said to his servant] ‘Go out quickly into the streets
and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and
the halt, and the blind . . The servant said, Lord, it is done as thou
hast commanded, and yet there is room. And the Lord said unto the servant,
Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my
house may be filled.’ This is a work that the churches in every
locality, north and south and east and west, should do. The churches have
been given the opportunity of answering this work. Why have they not done
it? Someone must fulfill the commission.”—Review and Herald, May
25, 1897.
NOW
IS THE TIME FOR IT TO BE DONE—“We
have come to a time when every member of the church should take hold of
medical missionary work. The world is a lazar house filled with victims of
both physical and spiritual disease . . The members of the church are in
need of an awakening, that they may realize their responsibility to impart
these truths.”—7 Testimonies, 62.
IT
WILL BE DONE—“We
should feel deeply over these things, for they are true. We should have a
high estimate of truth and of the value of souls. Time is short, and there
is a great work to be done. If you feel no interest in the work that is
going forward, if you will not encourage medical missionary work in the
churches, it will be done without your consent; for it is the work of God,
and it must be done. My brethren and sisters, take your position on the
Lord’s side and be earnest, active, courageous co-workers with Christ,
laboring with Him to seek and save the lost.”—8 Testimonies, 75.
AGENTS
AND INSTITUTIONS WILL BE RAISED UP—“Thus saith the Lord: Buildings will give
character to My work only when those who erect them follow My instruction
in regard to the establishment of institutions. Had those who have managed
and sustained the work in the past always been controlled by pure,
unselfish principles, there never would have been the selfish gathering of
a large share of My means into one or two places. Institutions would have
been established in many localities. The seeds of truth, sown in many more
fields, would have sprung up and borne fruit to My glory. Places that have
been neglected are now to receive attention. My people are to do a sharp,
quick work. Those who with purity of purpose fully consecrate themselves
to Me, body, soul, and spirit shall work in My way and in My name.
Everyone shall stand in his lot, looking to Me, his Guide and Counselor. I
will instruct the ignorant and anoint with heavenly eyesalve the eyes of
many who are now in spiritual darkness. I will raise up agents who will
carry out My will to prepare a people to stand before Me in the time of
the end. In many places that before this ought to have been provided with
sanitariums and schools, I will establish My institutions, and these
institutions will become educational centers for the training of workers.”—Counsels
on Health, 226-227.
A
CHARACTER TO FORM—“Let
no one think that he can do as he pleases in the matter of diet. But
before all who sit at the table with you, let it appear that you follow
principle in the matter of eating—as in all matters—that the glory of
God may be revealed. You cannot afford to do otherwise; for you have a
character to form for the future immortal life.”—Counsels on Diet
and Foods, 34.
CLOSER
AND MORE TRYING—“Said
the angel, ‘Abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul.’
You have stumbled at the health reform. It appears to you to be a needless
appendix to the truth. It is not so; it is a part of the truth. Here is a
work before you which will come closer and be more trying than anything
which has yet been brought to bear upon you. While you hesitate and stand
back, failing to lay hold upon the blessing which it is your privilege to
receive, you suffer loss. You are stumbling over the very blessing which
heaven has placed in your path to make progress less difficult.”—Counsels
on Diet and Foods, 39.
HE
CANNOT SUSTAIN HIS SERVANTS IN SIN—“The
Lord has given His people a message in regard to health reform. This light
has been shining upon their pathway for thirty years; and the Lord cannot
sustain His servants in a course which will counteract it. He is
displeased when His servants act in opposition to the message upon this
point, which He has given them to give to others. Can He be pleased when
half the workers laboring in a place, teach that the principles of health
reform are as closely allied with the third angel’s message as the arm
is to the body, while their co-workers, by their practice, teach
principles that are entirely opposite? This is regarded as a sin in the
sight of God.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 38.
UNFITTED
TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK—“The
misuse of our physical powers shortens the period of time in which our
lives can be used for the glory of God. And it unfits us to accomplish the
work God has given us to do.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 49.
NOT
POSSIBLE TO GLORIFY GOD—“It
is not possible for us to glorify God while living in violation of the
laws of life. The heart cannot possibly maintain consecration to God while
lustful appetite is indulged.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 44.
SANCTIFICATION
AND PERFECTION IMPOSSIBLE—“A
diseased body and disordered intellect, because of continual indulgence in
hurtful lust, make sanctification of the body and spirit impossible. The
apostle understood the importance of the healthful conditions of the body
for the successful perfection of Christian character.”—Counsels on
Diet and Foods, 44.
2 – IT WILL
SHAKE AND PURIFY
THE CHURCH
FOR
OUR SALVATION—THE SALVATION OF THE WORLD—“The
light God has given on health reform is for our salvation and the
salvation of the world. Men and women should be informed in regard to the
human habitation, fitted up by our Creator as His dwelling place, and over
which He desires us to be faithful stewards. ‘For ye are the temple of
the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them;
and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.’ ”—Welfare
Ministry, 130-131.
TO
LESSEN SUFFERING AND PURIFY HIS PEOPLE—“We have been given the work of advancing
health reform. The Lord desires His people to be in harmony with one
another. As you must know, we shall not leave the position in which, for
the last thirty-five years, the Lord has been bidding us stand. Beware how
you place yourself in opposition to the work of health reform. It will go
forward; for it is the Lord’s means of lessening the suffering in our
world and of purifying His people.”—Medical Ministry, 279.
TO
LESSEN SUFFERING AND PURIFY HIS CHURCH—“The work of health reform is the
Lord’s means for lessening suffering in our world and for purifying His
church. Teach the people that they can act as God’s helping hand by
cooperating with the Master Worker in restoring physical and spiritual
health.”—9 Testimonies, 112-113.
BACKSLIDING
HAS BROUGHT GREAT LACK—“The
failure to follow sound principles has marred the history of God’s
people. There has been a continual backsliding in health reform; and, as a
result, God is dishonored by a great lack of spirituality. Barriers have
been erected which would never have been seen had God’s people walked in
the light.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 33.
REGAINING
EDEN—“As
our first parents lost Eden through the indulgence of appetite, our only
hope of regaining Eden is through the firm denial of appetite and
passion.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 59.
IF
THEY HAD CONQUERED ON THIS POINT—“The
controlling power of appetite will prove the ruin of thousands, when, if
they had conquered on this point, they would have had moral power to gain
the victory over every other temptation of Satan. But those who are slaves
to appetite will fail in perfecting Christian character. The continual
transgression of man for six thousand years has brought sickness, pain,
and death as its fruits. And as we near the close of time, Satan’s
temptation to indulge appetite will be more powerful and more difficult to
overcome.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 59.
IT
IS IMPOSSIBLE—“It
is impossible for those who give the reins to appetite to attain to
Christian perfection.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 236.
IN
ORDER TO BE FITTED FOR TRANSLATION—“In
order to be fitted for translation, the people of God must know
themselves. They must understand in regard to their own physical frames,
that they may be able with the psalmist to exclaim, ‘I will praise Thee,
for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.’ They should ever have the
appetite in subjection to the moral and intellectual organs. The body
should be servant to the mind, and not the mind to the body.”—Counsels
on Diet and Foods, 33.
FITTED
FOR IMMORTALITY—“Men,
then, can make their bodies unholy by sinful indulgences. If unholy, they
are unfitted to be spiritual worshipers, and are not worthy of heaven. If
man will cherish the light that God in mercy gives him upon health reform,
he may be sanctified through the truth, and fitted for immortality.”—Counsels
on Diet and Foods, 70.
CLEANSING—A
FITNESS TO ENGAGE IN THE LOUD CRY—“God requires His people to cleanse
themselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting
holiness in the fear of the Lord . . I was shown that if God’s people
make no efforts on their part, but wait for the refreshing to come upon
them and remove their wrongs and correct their errors; if they depend upon
that to cleanse them from filthiness of the flesh and spirit, and fit them
to engage in the loud cry of the third angel, they will be found wanting.
The refreshing or power of God comes only on those who have prepared
themselves for it by doing the work which God bids them, namely, cleansing
themselves from all filthiness of the flesh and
spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”—Counsels
on Diet and Foods, 33.
PREPARATION
FOR THE LOUD CRY—“I
was shown that the work of health reform has scarcely been entered upon
yet. While some feel deeply, and act out their faith in the work, others
remain indifferent and have scarcely taken the first step in reform. There
seems to be in them a heart of unbelief; and as this reform restricts the
lustful appetite, many shrink back. They have other gods before the Lord.
Their taste, their appetite, is their god . . [God’s people] They have a
work to do for themselves which they should not leave for God to do for
them. He has left this work for them to do. It is an individual work; one
cannot do it for another.”—Counsels on Health, 453.
THE
LAST GREAT TEST—“The
truth for this time, the third angel’s message, is to be proclaimed with
a loud voice . . as we approach the great final test. This test must come
to the churches in connection with true medical missionary work, a work
that has the Great Physician to dictate and preside in all that it
comprehends.”—10 Manuscript Releases, 314 (August 13, 1900).
THE
VERY LAST DECEPTION OF SATAN—“As
the end draws near and the work of giving the last warning to the world
extends, it becomes more important for those who accept present truth to
have a clear understanding of the nature and influence of the Testimonies,
which God in His providence has linked with the work of the third
angel’s message from its very rise.”—5 Testimonies, 654.
“If you lose
confidence in the testimonies you will drift away from Bible truth . . As
you now hold the testimonies, should one be given crossing your track,
correcting your errors, would you feel at perfect liberty to accept or
reject any part, or the whole? That which you will be least inclined to
receive is the very part most needed.”—5 Testimonies, 98.
“Satan is . .
constantly pressing in the spurious—to lead away from the truth. The
very last deception of Satan will be to make of none effect the testimony
of the Spirit of God. ‘Where there is no vision, the people perish’ (Prov.
29:18). Satan will work ingeniously, in different ways and through
different agencies, to unsettle the confidence of God’s remnant people
in the true testimony.”—2 Selected Messages, 78.
OPEN
TO WORLD, SHUT TO THOSE WHO WOULD NOT ENTER—“Oh, that the people might know the time
of their visitation! There are many who have not yet heard the testing
truth for this time. There are many with whom the Spirit of God is
striving. The time of God’s destructive judgments is the time of mercy
for those who have had no opportunity to learn what is truth. Tenderly
will the Lord look upon them. His heart of mercy is touched; His hand is
still stretched out to save, while the door is closed to those who would
not enter.”—9 Testimonies, 97.
THE
DOOR WILL BE SHUT—“Brethren,
be careful, very careful. There is a work being done by the medical
missionaries which answers to the description given in Matthew 24:48-51.
The Lord is working to reach the most depraved. Many will know what it
means to be drawn to Christ, but will not have moral courage to war
against appetite and passion. But the workers must not be discouraged at
this; for it is written, ‘In the latter times some shall depart from the
faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils.’ 1
Timothy 4:1.
“Is it only
those rescued from the lowest depths that backslide? There are those in
the ministry who have had light and a knowledge of the truth, who will not
be overcomers. They do not restrict their appetites and passions, or deny
themselves for Christ’s sake. Many poor outcasts, even publicans and
sinners, will grasp the hope set before them in the gospel, and will go
into the kingdom of heaven before the ones who have had great
opportunities and great light, but who have walked in darkness. In the
last great day, many will say: ‘Lord, Lord, open unto us.’ But the
door will be shut, and their knock will be in vain.”—8 Testimonies,
75.
BOUND
UP WITH THE LAW AND SABBATH—“Genuine
medical missionary work is bound up inseparably with the keeping of
God’s commandments, of which the Sabbath is especially mentioned, since
it is the great memorial of God’s creative work. Its observance is bound
up with the work of restoring the moral image of God in man. This is the
ministry which God’s people are to carry forward at this time. This
ministry, rightly performed, will bring rich blessings to the
church.”—6 Testimonies, 266.
THE
SIGN OF THOSE WHO LOVE GOD AND OBEY HIS LAW—“True
sympathy between man and his fellowman is to be the sign distinguishing
those who love and fear God from those who are unmindful of His law. How
great the sympathy that Christ expressed in coming to this world to give
His life a sacrifice for a dying world! His religion led to the doing of
genuine medical missionary work.”—Medical Ministry, 251.
ANSWERING
SATAN’S CHARGES—OUR REPRESENTATION BEFORE THE WORLD—“The
Lord desires, through His people, to answer Satan’s charges by showing
the result of obedience to right principles. He desires our health
institutions to stand as witnesses for truth. They are to give character
to the work which must be carried forward in these last days in restoring
man through a reformation of the habits, appetite, and passions.
Seventh-day Adventists are to be represented to the world by the advance
principles of health reform which God has given us.”—Medical
Ministry, 187 (Manuscript, “God’s Design in Establishing
Sanitariums,” December 22, 1899).
SEALED
WITH THE SEAL OF GOD—“The
fifty-eighth chapter of Isaiah contains present truth for the people of
God. Here we see how medical missionary work and the gospel ministry are
to be bound together as the message is given to the world. Upon those who
keep the Sabbath of the Lord is laid the responsibility of doing a work of
mercy and benevolence. Medical missionary work is to be bound up with the
message, and sealed with the seal of God.”—Welfare Ministry, 121.
3 – IT WILL
SWELL
THE
THIRD ANGEL’S MESSAGE
INTO A LOUD CRY
A
CLEARER PERCEPTION, A WONDERFUL CHANGE—“God calls upon every church member to
dedicate his life unreservedly to the Lord’s service. He calls for
decided reformation. All creation is groaning under the curse. God’s
people should place themselves where they will grow in grace, being
sanctified—body, soul, and spirit—by the truth. When they break away
from all health-destroying indulgences, they will have a clearer
perception of what constitutes true godliness. A wonderful change will be
seen in the religious experience.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 34.
IF
WORKERS HUMBLE THEIR HEARTS—A WONDERFUL REVIVAL WILL COME—“If
the workers will humble their hearts before God, the blessing will come.
They will all the while be receiving fresh, new ideas, and there will be a
wonderful revival of gospel medical missionary work.”—Medical
Ministry, 257.
A
GREAT REFORMATORY MOVEMENT—“In
visions of the night representations passed before me of a great
reformatory movement among God’s people. Many were praising God. The
sick were healed and other miracles were wrought. A spirit of intercession
was seen, even as was manifested before the great day of Pentecost.
Hundreds and thousands were seen visiting families, and opening before
them the Word of God. Hearts were convicted by the power of the Holy
Spirit, and a spirit of genuine conversion was manifest. On every side
doors were thrown open to the proclamation of truth. The world seemed to
be lightened with the heavenly influence. Great blessings were received by
the true and humble people of God. I heard voices of thanksgiving and
praise, and there seemed to be a reformation such as we witnessed in 1844.
Yet some refused to be converted. They were not willing to walk in God’s
way; and when, in order that the work of God might be advanced, calls were
made for freewill offerings, some clung selfishly to their earthly
possessions. These covetous ones became separated from the company of
believers.”—Counsels on Health, 580.
AS
RELIGIOUS AGGRESSION SUBVERTS LIBERTIES—A FIELD OF LABOR—“As
religious aggression subverts the liberties of our nation, those who would
stand for freedom of conscience will be placed in unfavorable positions.
For their own sake, they should, while they have opportunity, become
intelligent in regard to disease, its causes, prevention, and cure. And
those who do this will find a field of labor anywhere. There will be
suffering ones, plenty of them, who will need help, not only among those
of our own faith, but largely among those who know not the truth. The
shortness of time demands an energy that has not been aroused among those
who claim to believe the present truth.”—Counsels on Health, 506.
SOUND
PHILOSOPHY AND GENUINE EXPERIENCE TO STIR THE PUBLIC MIND—“All
are bound by the most sacred obligations to God to heed the sound
philosophy and genuine experience which He is now giving them in reference
to health reform. He designs that the great subject of health reform shall
be agitated, and the public mind deeply stirred to investigate; for it is
impossible for men and women, with all their sinful, health-destroying,
brain-enervating habits, to discern sacred truth, through which they are
to be sanctified, refined, elevated, and made fit for the society of
heavenly angels in the kingdom of glory.”—Counsels on Diet and
Foods, 70.
AGITATION—“The
great subject of reform is to be agitated, and the public mind is to be
stirred. Temperance in all things is to be connected with the message, to
turn the people of God from their idolatry, their gluttony, and their
extravagance in dress and other things.”—Counsels on Diet and
Foods, 71.
AN
ENTERING WEDGE TO THE HEART—“When
properly conducted, the health work is an entering wedge, making a way for
other truths to reach the heart. When the third angel’s message is
received in its fullness, health reform will be given its place in the
councils of the conference, in the work of the church, in the home, at the
table, and in all the household arrangements. Then the right arm will
serve and protect the body.”—Counsels on Diet and Foods, 73.
THE
RIGHT HAND TO OPEN DOORS—“Medical
missionary work is the right hand of the gospel. It is necessary to the
advancement of the cause of God . . Every city is to be entered by workers
trained to do medical missionary work. As the right hand of the third
angel’s message, God’s methods of treating disease will open doors for
the entrance of present truth.”—7 Testimonies, 59.
RECEIVED
BY ALL WHO WANT LIGHT—“The
influences that are associated with health reform will commend it to the
judgment of all who want light; and they will advance step by step to
receive the special truths for this time.”—6 Testimonies, 379.
HENCEFORTH—“Henceforth
medical missionary work is to be carried forward with an earnestness with
which it has never yet been carried. This work is the door through which
the truth is to find entrance to the large cities.”—9 Testimonies,
167.
UNTIL
THE WHOLE EARTH IS COVERED—“We
shall see the medical missionary work broadening and deepening at every
point of its progress, because of the inflowing of hundreds and thousands
of streams, until the whole earth is covered as the waters cover the
sea.”—Medical Ministry, 317.
4 – IT WILL
BE THE PRACTICAL BASIS
OF
JUDGMENT
IN THE GREAT DAY
OF GOD
TWO
CLASSES—“ ‘When the Son of Man shall
come in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit
upon the throne of His glory; and before Him shall be gathered all
nations: and He shall separate them one from another.’ Thus Christ on
the Mount of Olives pictured to His disciples the scene of the great
judgment day. And He represented its decision as turning upon one point.
When the nations are gathered before Him, there will be but two classes;
and their eternal destiny will be determined by what they have done or
have neglected to do for Him in the person of the poor and the suffering.
“In that day
Christ does not present before men the great work He has done for them in
giving His life for their redemption. He presents the faithful work they
have done for Him. To those whom He sets upon His right hand He will say,
‘Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you
from the foundation of the world: for I was an hungered, and ye gave Me
meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took
Me in: naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and ye visited Me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto Me.’ ”—Desire of Ages, 637.
TWO
PARTIES—“In the last days there are to
be only two parties, the one on the right hand and the other on the left.
And Christ says unto one, ‘Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the
kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was an
hungered, and ye gave Me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was
a stranger, and ye took Me in: naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and
ye visited Me: I was in prison, and ye came unto Me.’ And they answer,
‘When saw we thus and ministered unto Thee?’ And Christ says,
‘Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren,
ye have done it unto Me.’ But to those on the left, He says, ‘Depart
from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and His
angels’ . .
“Well, now we
want to bring Christ into our everyday life. Those who had not fed the
hungry, or clothed the naked, or visited the sick were not conscious of
it, and why? Because they had educated and trained themselves in the
school of self-indulgence, and the result was they lost heaven and the
eternity of bliss which they might have had, had they devoted their powers
to God.”—Medical Ministry, 133-134.
PRAISE
AND THANKSGIVING, FOR SOULS HAVE BEEN SAVED—“There
will be a blessed commendation, a holy benediction, on the faithful
winners of souls. They will join the rejoicing ones in heaven, who shout
the harvest home. How great will be the joy when the redeemed of the Lord
shall all meet,—gathered into the mansions prepared for them! Oh, what
rejoicing for all who have been impartial, unselfish laborers together
with God in carrying forward His work in the earth! What satisfaction will
every reaper have when the clear, musical voice of Jesus shall be heard,
saying, ‘Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared
for you from the foundation of the world!’ . .
“The Redeemer is glorified
because He has not died in vain. With glad rejoicing hearts, those who
have been co-laborers with God see of the travail of their soul for
perishing, dying sinners, and are satisfied. The anxious hours they have
spent, the perplexing circumstances they have had to meet, the sorrow of
heart because some refused to see and receive the things which make for
their peace, are forgotten. The self-denial they have practiced in order
to support the work is remembered no more. As they look upon the souls
they sought to win to Jesus, and see them saved, eternally
saved,—monuments of God’s mercy and of a Redeemer’s love,—there
ring through the arches of heaven shouts of praise and thanksgiving.”—Medical
Ministry, 134-135.
