A Commendation for Soul Winners
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
[135]
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 colaborers with God
see of the travail of their soul for perishing, dying sinners, and are
satisfied. The anxious hours they have spent, the perplexing circum-
stances 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.—
The Review and Herald, October 10, 1907.
Gain That Is Loss
God will surely turn aside any advantage gained by selfish, unjust
dealing. My brother, your senses must be cleansed and sanctified.
We must reach a higher standard. We must watch, we must pray,
always standing ready for action.—
Letter 13, 1902
