So it will be found in the judgment. God’s reproof has been plainly uttered against men and women who have sinned by corrupting their bodies and defiling their souls by licentiousness. They have the warnings to others placed in similar circumstances, who have been overcome by the tempter, and they know that the displeasure of God rested upon them. They have the example of Joseph and Daniel, who feared God. Joseph, when tempted, looked up to heaven, and realized that God’s eye was upon him, and he exclaimed, “How can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” He also urged his duty to his master, who trusted him so fully, as a reason against it. {TM 437.2}

Således vil det blive ved dommen. Guds irettesættelse har tydeligt været udtalt mod mænd og kvinder som har syndet ved at fordærve deres legemer og besmitte deres sjæle ved tøjlesløshed. Advarslerne til andre har de i en ligenende skæbne, som de har overvundet ved fristeren, og de ved at Guds mishag hviler over dem. De har Josefs og Daniels eksempel, som frygtede Gud. Da Joesf var fristet så han op til himlen og erkendte at Guds øjne var over ham, og han udbrød, »Hvor skulle jeg da kunne øve denne store misgerning og synde mod Gud?« Han bad også indtrængende for sin pligt mod hans mester, som gav ham så meget tillid, til gængæld.
