Counsels to Parents, Teachers, and Students
Let those who have been trained for service now take their places
quickly in the Lord’s work. House-to-house laborers are needed.
The Lord calls for decided efforts to be put forth in places where the
people know nothing of Bible truth. Singing and prayer and Bible
readings are needed in the homes of the people. Now, just now, is the
time to obey the commission, “Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you.”
Matthew 28:20
. Those who
do this work must have a ready knowledge of the Scriptures. “It is
written” is to be their weapon of defense. God has given us light on
His word, that we may give this light to our fellow men. The truth
spoken by Christ will reach hearts. A “Thus saith the Lord” will
fall upon the ear with power, and fruit will appear wherever honest
service is done. 1882.
