But in order to accept the invitation to the gospel feast, they must make their worldly interests subordinate to the one purpose of receiving Christ and His righteousness. God gave all for man, and He asks him to place His service above every earthly and selfish consideration. He cannot accept a divided heart. The heart that is absorbed in earthly affections cannot be given up to God.

Men for at kunne tage imod indbydelsen til evangeliets fest må de lade deres verdslige interesser vige for den ene interesse at modtage Kristus og hans retfærdighed. Gud gav alt for menneskets skyld, og nu beder han mennesket sætte ethvert jordisk og egenkærligt hensyn til side for at kunne tjene ham. Han kan ikke tage imod et delt hjerte. Et hjerte, der er optaget af jordiske interesser kan ikke overgives til Gud.
