In no time in your life have you been more critically placed than
you are while prosecuting your medical studies in Ann Arbor. Satan is
watching every avenue whereby he can take advantage to enter with
his specious temptations to spoil the soul. You will meet with infidel
sentiments in very intelligent men who call themselves Christians.
Cling to the wisdom which is revealed to you in the Word of God, for
it will bind you, if you obey its teachings, to the throne of God.
I am fearful now, more than at any other period of time, that
Christians, as individuals, may separate from God because they lose
sight of the Pattern, Jesus Christ, and think it is safe to walk in the
sparks of their own kindling, deceiving the soul with thinking it is the
way of the Lord.—
Letter 17a, 1893
