We must reveal a sense of a present Saviour, a firm trust that Jesus is at the helm, and that He will see the noble vessel safe into harbor. We are to know that it is impossible to save ourselves or any soul. We have no power to bestow salvation upon the perishing. Jesus, our Redeemer, is the Saviour. We are only His instrumentalities and dependent every moment upon God. We are to magnify His power before His chosen people and before the world for the great salvation which through His atoning sacrifice and His blood He has conferred upon us.—Lt 19a, 1892. {2MCP 492.3}

Vi må åbenbare en fornemmelse af en nærværende Frelser, en fast tillid til at Jesus er ved roret, og at Han vil have det pæne skib sikkert havnen. Vi skal vide at det er umuligt at frelse os selv eller nogen sjæl. Vi har ingen kraft til at give frelsen til den der går fortabt. Jesus, vor Genløser, er Frelseren. Vi er kun Hans redskaber og hvert øjeblik afhængige af Gud. Vi skal ophøje Hans kraft, for Hans udvalgte folk og for verden, for den store frelse som gennem Hans sonoffer og Hans blod har han hvervet os. — Brev 19a, 1892.
