Peter’s Counsel to Parents
A position contrary to the world
There are many here who will need to take their position directly
contrary to the world’s customs and fashions. They may not want
to do this, but this must make no difference. We are to have a large
experience here in a little while, and everything should be brought into
line with right principles. Here are men and women of capability. We
want you to realize your capabilities, and act your part in carrying out
the purposes of God for this place. Here are men who are preparing
to enter on high positions of truth; but they are not ready for these
positions. They need to be reconverted, and to let the blessing of God
come into the life to transform the character. If those who come here
to obtain an education will seek to help in every possible way, God
will multiply blessings to them, and giving them His knowledge and
His grace will make them overcomers through the blood of the Lamb
and the word of their testimony. (
