The Message of Christian Stewardship . Teach Every Convert—Every soul converted is to have the light in regard to the Lord’s requirement for tithes and offerings. All that men enjoy they receive from the Lord’s great farm, and He is pleased to have His heritage enjoy His goods; but He has made a special contract with all who stand under the bloodstained banner of Prince Immanuel, that they may show their dependence and accountability to God, by returning to His treasury a certain portion as His own. This is to be invested in supporting the missionary work which must be done to fulfill the commission given to them by the Son of God just before He left His disciples.—Manuscript 123, 1898. {Ev 249.3}

Budskabet om kristen forvaltning.
Undervis alle nyomvendte. - Enhver omvendt sjæl skal have lyset om Herrens forlangende af tiende og offergaver. Alt hvad mennesker nyder, modtager de fra Herrens store gård, og Han er tilfreds (250) med at Hans arvinger skal nyde Hans goder; men Han har lavet en særlig kontrakt med alle som står under Prins Imannuels blodbestænkte banner, så de kan vise deres afhængighed og ansvarlighed over for Gud, ved at give en vis del af Hans rigdomme tilbage, som Hans eget. Dette skal investeres ved underholdende missionsarbejde, som må gøres for at opfylde det hverv de har fået af Guds Søn lige før han forlod Sine disciple. - manuskript 123, 1898.
