Unity of Effort . Some have advanced the thought that as we near the close of time, every child of God will act independently of any religious organization. But I have been instructed by the Lord that in this work there is no such thing as every man’s being independent. The stars of heaven are all under law, each influencing the other to do the will of God, yielding their common obedience to the law that controls their action. And in order that the Lord’s work may advance healthfully and solidly, His people must draw together. {TM 489.3}

Bestræbelserne samles
Nogle har fremført den tanke at vi er nær tidens ende, ethvert Guds barn vil handle uafhængig af nogen religiøs organisation. Men jeg er blevet belært om af Herren at der i dette arbejde ikke er noget så slemt som et menneskes selvstændighed. Himlens stjerner er alle under lov, enhver påvirker de andre til at gøre Guds vilje og bøjer deres almindelige lydighed til den lov der styrer deres handlinger. Og for at Herrens arbejde kan fremmes sundt og pålideligt, må han samle sit folk.
