Minds Not to Be Crowded With Useless Things—Education, as it is conducted in the schools of today [1897], is one-sided, and therefore a mistake. As the purchase of the Son of God, we are His property, and everyone should have an education in the school of Christ. Wise teachers should be chosen for our schools. Teachers have to deal with human minds, and they are responsible to God to impress upon those minds the necessity of knowing Christ as a personal Saviour. But no one can truly educate God’s purchased possession unless he himself has learned in the school of Christ how to teach. {1MCP 52.3}

Sindene må ikke overdynges med unødige ting. - Uddannelse, sådan som den føres i dagens skoler [1897], er ensidig, og derfor en fejltagelse. Som Guds Søns anskaffelse, er vi Hans ejendom, og enhver bør have en uddannelse i Kristi skole. Der bør vælges kloge lærere til vore skoler. Lærere skal arbejde med menneskers sind, og de er ansvarlige over for Gud, at indprente disse sind, med den nødvendige kundskab om Kristus, som en personlig Frelser. Men ingen kan uddanne Guds anskaffede ejendom rigtigt, hvis han selv ikke er blevet undervist i Kristi skole, hvordan man underviser.
