Perfect Love in the Church, the Aim of Christ—Jesus could have flashed bright beams of light on the darkest mysteries of science, but He would not spare a moment from teaching the knowledge of the science of salvation. His time, His knowledge, His faculties, His life itself, were appreciated only as the means of working out the salvation of the souls of men. O what love, what matchless love! {1MCP 245.3}

Kristi mål er fuldkommen kærlighed i menigheden. - Jesus kunne have glimtet klare lysstråler på videnskabens mørkeste mysterier, men Han vil ikke spare et øjeblik med at undervise i frelsesvidenskabens kundskab. Hans tid, hans kundskab, hans evner, hans eget liv, blev kun påskønnet som middel til at udvirke menneskers frelse. O, hvilken kærlighed, hvilken uforlignelig kærlighed!
