Instead of toiling to prepare set rules and regulations, you might better be praying and submitting your own will and your ways to Christ. He is not pleased when you make hard the thing He has made easy. He says, “Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.” The Lord Jesus loves His heritage, and if men will not think it their special prerogative to prescribe rules for their fellow laborers, but will bring Christ’s rules into their life and copy His lessons, then each will be an example, and not a judge.—Manuscript 44, 1894. {Ev 117.3}

I stedet for al maset med at sætte regler og regulativer op, skulle I hellere bede og underlægge jeres egen vilje og veje under Kristus. Han er ikke glad for at I gør de ting svære, som han har gjort lette. Han siger: "Tag mit åg på jer og lær af mig, thi jeg er sagtmodig og ydmyg af hjertet; så skal I finde hvile for jeres sjæle. Thi mit åg er gavnligt, og min byrde er let."
