A Neglected Work—We are to give the message of warning to the world, and how are we doing our work? Are you, brethren, preaching that part of the truth that pleases the people, while other parts of the work are left incomplete? Will it be necessary for someone to follow after you, and urge upon the people the duty of faithfully bringing all the tithes and offerings into the Lord’s treasury? This is the work of the minister, but it has been sadly neglected. The people have robbed God, and the wrong has been suffered because the minister did not want to displease his brethren. God calls these men unfaithful stewards.—The Review and Herald, July 8, 1884. {Ev 252.2}

Et forsømt arbejde. - Vi skal give advarselsbudskabet til verden, og hvordan gør vi vort arbejde? Brødre, forkynder I den del af sandheden der behager folket, medens andre dele af arbejde efterlades ufærdige? Vil det være nødvendigt for nogle at følge efter dig, og tilskynde folk at bringe tiende og offergaver troskyldigt ind i Herrens skatkammer? Dette er prædikantens arbejde, men det er blevet sørgeligt forsømt. Folket har berøvet Gud, og der er sket fejl fordi prædikanten ikke ønskede at gøre sine brødre ubehag. Gud kalder disse mennesker for upålidelige forvaltere. - Review and Herald, 8.juli, 1884.
