God takes men as they are, and educates them for His service, if they will yield themselves to Him. The Spirit of God, received into the soul, will quicken all its faculties. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, the mind that is devoted unreservedly to God develops harmoniously, and is strengthened to comprehend and fulfill the requirements of God. The weak, vacillating character becomes changed to one of strength and steadfastness. Continual devotion establishes so close a relation between Jesus and His disciple that the Christian becomes like Him in mind and character. Through a connection with Christ he will have clearer and broader views. His discernment will be more penetrative, his judgment better balanced. He who longs to be of service to Christ is so quickened by the life-giving power of the Sun of Righteousness that he is enabled to bear much fruit to the glory of God.

Gud tager mennesker, som de er, og opdrager dem til sin tjeneste, hvis de vil overgive sig til ham. Når Guds Ånd modtages i sjælen, vil den bringe liv til alle dens evner. Under Helligåndens ledelse udvikler det sind, der uden forbehold har viet sig til Gud, sig harmonisk og bliver styrket til at fatte og udføre Guds krav. Den svage, vaklende sjæl forvandles til at blive stærk og urokkelig. En bestandig hengivelse skaber en så nær forbindelse mellem Jesus og hans discipel, at den kristne kommer til at ligne ham i sind og væsen. Gennem samfund med Kristus vil han få et klarere og videre udsyn. Hans fatteevne vil blive skarpere, hans dømmekraft mere ligevægtig. Den, som længes efter at tjene Kristus, bliver så styrket ved den livgivende kraft fra "Retfærdighedens Sol", at han kan bære megen frugt til Guds ære.
