Look to God for Help

never had. There is no other way of reaching them but in Christ’s way.
He ever worked to relieve suffering and teach righteousness. Only thus
can sinners be raised from the depths of degradation.

The workers must labor in love, feeding, cleansing, and clothing
those who need their help. In this way these outcasts are prepared to
know that someone cares for their souls. The Lord has shown me that
many of these poor outcasts from society will, through the ministration
of human agencies, co-operate with divine power and seek to restore
the moral image of God in others for whom Christ has paid the price
of His own blood. They will be called the elect of God, precious, and
will stand next to the throne of God.
A Word of Caution
“Then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then
shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of
man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And
He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they

But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what
watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not
have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who then
is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Lord hath made ruler over his
household, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that servant,
whom his Lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Verily I say unto

evil servant shall say in his heart, My Lord delayeth his coming; and
shall begin to smite his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the
drunken; the Lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh
not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, and shall cut him
[75]
asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall
be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Matthew 24:30, 31, 42-51

Brethren, be careful, very careful. There is a work being done by
the medical missionaries which answers to the description given in
Verses 48-51
