Testimonies for the Church Volume 9
and women in this field feel their deep poverty and their need of
uplifting. And when faithful teachers shall come in to open to them
the Scriptures just as they read, presenting truth in its native purity,
the darkness will disappear. Bright beams of light will shine upon the
soul searching for truth. And with those who have had advantages, a
close and intelligent investigation will take place upon the subjects
of truth revealed in the Scriptures. Many will be taught of God. They
will learn aright from the Great Teacher, and will accept with joy
the truths that will sanctify and uplift. The moral image of God will
be restored in the soul, and many will be eternally saved.
My dear brethren and sisters, Christ is now saying to you: “Lift
up your eyes and look on this Southern field; for it needs workers—
sowers of the seed, and reapers. It needs your means for the mainte-
nance of these workers.” The grace of Christ is unlimited, it is God’s
free gift. Then why should not this neglected people have some hope
and courage and faith brought into their lives? There is sunshine in
the heart for all who will accept Christ.
