To labor at considerable expense to bring souls into the truth and then leave them to fashion their own experience according to false ideas they have received and woven into their religious experience, would leave that work far worse than if the truth had never been brought to them. To leave the work incomplete and to ravel out is worse than to wait until there are plans well devised to take care of those who do come into the faith.—Letter 60, 1886. {Ev 84.4}

At arbejde under store omkostninger, for at bruge sjæle til sandheden og så lade dem danne deres egen erfaring efter falske idéer, som de har fået (85) og indvævet i deres religiøse erfaring, vil efterlade arbejdet langt værre end hvis sandheden aldrig var blevet kommet til dem. Det er langt værre at arbejdet efterlades ufuldstændigt og det kommer i urede, end at vente indtil der er veltilrettelagte planer for dem som kommer til troen. - Brev 60, 1886.
