When Christ said to the disciples, Go forth in My name to gather into the church all who believe, He plainly set before them the necessity of maintaining simplicity. The less ostentation and show, the greater would be their influence for good. The disciples were to speak with the same simplicity with which Christ had spoken. They were to 29 impress upon their hearers the lessons He had taught them.

Da Kristus sagde til sine disciple: Gå ud i mit navn for at samle alle dem, som tror, ind i menigheden, forelagde han dem nødvendigheden af at bevare enkelheden! Jo mindre ydre pragt og tilskuestillen, jo større ville deres indflydelse være til det gode. Disciplene skulle tale lige så ligefremt, som Kristus havde gjort. De skulle indprente deres tilhørere den samme lære, som han havde lært dem.
