Love for souls for whom Christ died means crucifixion of self. He who is a child of God should henceforth look upon himself as a link in the chain let down to save the world, one with Christ in His plan of mercy, going forth with Him to seek and save the lost. The Christian is ever to realize that he has consecrated himself to God, and that in character he is to reveal Christ to the world. The self-sacrifice, the sympathy, the love, manifested in the life of Christ are to reappear in the life of the worker for God.

Kærlighed til de sjæle, for hvem Kristus døde, vil sige korsfæstelse af vort eget jeg. Den, som er et Guds barn, burde fra nu af betragte sig selv som et led i den kæde, der er sænket herned for at frelse verden, og være et med Kristus i hans frelsesplan ved at gå ud med ham for at søge og frelse de fortabte. En kristen burde altid gøre sig klart, at han har viet sig selv til Gud, og at han i sin personlighed skal åbenbare Kristus for verden. Selvhengivelsen, medfølelsen og kærligheden, der viste sig i Kristi liv, skal atter åbenbares i Guds tjeneres liv.
