Through the ages that have passed since the days of the apostles, the building of God's temple has never ceased. We may look back through the centuries and see the living stones of which it is composed gleaming like jets of light through the darkness of error and superstition. Throughout eternity these precious jewels will shine with increasing luster, testifying to the power of the truth of God. The flashing light 599 of these polished stones reveals the strong contrast between light and darkness, between the gold of truth and the dross of error.

I alle de tider, der er hengået siden apostlenes dage, er opførelsen af Guds tempel aldrig ophørt. Vi kan se tilbage gennem århundrederne og se de levende stene, som det består af, glimte som lysende stråler gennem vildfarelsens og overtroens mørke. I al evighed vil disse kostbare juveler stråle med stadig større glans og vidne om Guds sandhed. Disse slebne stenes strålende skær åbenbarer den store modsætning mellem lys og mørke, mellem sandhedens guld og vildfarelsens slagger.
