In these thoroughly converted souls the world has a witness to the sanctifying power of truth upon the human character. Through them Christ makes known to the world His character and will. In the lives of God’s children is revealed the blessedness of serving the Lord, and the opposite is seen in those who do not keep His commandments. The line of demarcation is distinct. All who obey God’s commandments are kept by His mighty power amid the corrupting influence of the transgressors of His law. From the lowliest subject to the highest in positions of trust, they are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation.—Manuscript 56, 1900. {Ev 316.1}

(316) Hos disse helt omvendte sjæle har verden et vidne om sandhedens helliggørende kraft over menneskets karakter. Gennem dem gør Kristus sin karakter og vilje kendt for verden. I Guds børns liv åbenbares velsignelserne ved at tjene Herren, og det modsatte ses hos dem som ikke holder Hans bud. Grænselinierne er klare. Alle som adlyder Guds bud vedholdes af Hans mægtige kraft, midt iblandt den fordærvende indflydelse fra dem, der overtræder Hans lov. Fra den laveste undersåt til dem i mest betroede stillinger, skal de vedholdes af Guds kraft i troen på at blive frelst. - manuskript 56, 1900.
