In His discourses Christ did not bring many things before them at once, lest He might confuse their minds. He made every point clear and distinct. He did not disdain the repetition of old and familiar truths in prophecies if they would serve His purpose to inculcate ideas.—Manuscript 25, 1890. {Ev 56.1}

I sine prædikener bragte Kristus ikke ret mange ting frem for dem på en gang, for at han ikke skulle forvirre deres tanker. Han gjorde alle punkter klare og tydelige. Han ringeagtede ikke gengivelsen af gamle og velkendte sandheder i profetierne hvis de tjener hans mål: at indskærpe tanker. - manuskript 25, 1890.
