Humble yourselves before God, that in His strength you may rise to a
higher standard.—
Manuscript 20, 1905
.
Love of Jesus Moves Hearts—God and His beloved Son must
be presented before the people in the wealth of the love they have
evidenced for man. In order to break down the barriers of prejudice
and impenitence the love of Christ must have a part in every discourse.
Make men to know how much Jesus loves them, and what evidences
He has given them of His love. What love can equal that which God
has manifested for man by the death of Christ on the cross. When the
heart is filled with the love of Jesus, this can be presented to the people
and it will affect hearts.—
