He Drew by Love—Christ drew the hearts of His hearers to Him by the manifestation of His love, and then, little by little, as they were able to bear it, He unfolded to them the great truths of the kingdom. We also must learn to adapt our labors to the condition of the people—to meet men where they are. While the claims of the law of God are to be presented to the world, we should never forget that love, the love of Christ, is the only power that can soften the heart and lead to obedience.—The Review and Herald, November 25, 1890. {Ev 57.3}

Han drog af kærlighed. - Kristus drog sine tilhøreres hjerter til sig, ved hjælp af den kærlighed han udviste, og så kunne de lidt efter lidt bære det. Han opåbnede rigets store sandheder for dem. Vi må også lære at tilpasse vort arbejde til folkets tilstand - møde mennesker hvor de er. Idet kravene fra Guds lov skal overbringes til verden, skal vi ikke glemme at den kærlighed, Kristi kærlighed, er den eneste kraft som kan blødgøre hjertet og føre til lydighed. - Review and Herald, 25.nov. 1890.
