Power for Finishing the Work . Why Many Have Failed in Soul Winning—Many present the doctrines and theories of our faith; but their presentation is as salt without savor; for the Holy Spirit is not working through their faithless ministry. They have not opened the heart to receive the grace of Christ; they know not the operation of the Spirit; they are as meal without leaven; for there is no working principle in all their labor, and they fail to win souls to Christ. They do not appropriate the righteousness of Christ; it is a robe unworn by them, a fullness unknown, a fountain untouched.—The Review and Herald, November 29, 1892. {Ev 697.2}

Kraft til at afslutte arbejdet
Hvorfor mange svigter i sjælevinding. — Mange foredrager vor tros teorier og læresætninger; men deres fremstilling er som salt uden kraft, for Helligånden arbejder ikke igennem deres trosfattige tjeneste. De har ikke åbnet hjertet for at tage imod Kristi nåde, de kender ikke Helligåndens virke, de er som smagløse måltider, for der er intet sandt ledemotiv i deres arbejde, det lykkes ikke derved at vinde sjæle for Kristus. De er ikke iklædt Kristi retfærdighed; det er en dragt, de aldrig bar, fuldkommen ukendt for dem, et urørt kildevæld.— The Review and Herald, 29. november, 1892.
