Testimonies for the Church Volume 7
Great care should be exercised in selecting the members of the
book committee. The men who are to pass judgment on the books
offered for publication should be few and well chosen. Only such as
have an experimental knowledge of authorship are qualified to act in
this capacity. Only those should be chosen whose hearts are under
the control of the Spirit of God. They should be men of prayer, men
who do not exalt self, but who love and fear God, and respect their
brethren. Only such as, in distrust of self, are led by divine wisdom
are competent to fill this important position.
