The church is God's agency for the proclamation of truth, empowered by Him to do a special work; and if she is loyal to Him, obedient to all His commandments, there will dwell within her the excellency of divine grace. If she will be true to her allegiance, if she will honor the Lord God of Israel, there is no power that can stand against her.

Menigheden er Guds redskab til forkyndelse af sandheden og har af ham fået magt til at udrette en særlig gerning og hvis den er tro mod ham og lydig mod alle hans bud, vil den guddommelige nåde i al sin herlighed tage bolig i den. Hvis den ikke svigter sit kald, hvis den ærer Herren, Israels Gud, vil ingen magt kunne holde stand imod den.
