The next morning, while at family prayer, I was taken off in vision, and was shown concerning these matters. I saw that my husband must not give up the paper; for such a step was just what Satan was trying to drive him to take, and he was working through agents to do this. I was shown that we must continue to publish, and that the Lord would sustain us; that those who had been guilty of casting upon us such burdens would have to see the extent of their cruel course, and come back confessing their injustice, or the frown of God would be upon them; that it was not against us merely that they had spoken and acted, but against Him who had called us to fill the place He wished us to occupy; and that all their suspicion, jealousy, and secret influence was faithfully chronicled in heaven, and would not be blotted out until everyone who had taken a part in it should see the extent of his wrong course, and retrace every step. {1T 89.2}

Under familiebønnen den næste morgen fik jeg et syn angående disse ting. Jeg så, at min mand ikke måtte opgive bladet; for et sådant skridt (90) var netop, hvad Satan prøvede at få ham til at tage, og han arbejdede gennem sine repræsentanter for at opnå dette. Jeg blev vist, at vi måtte fortsætte med udgivelserne, og at Herren ville opretholde os; at de, som havde været skyldige i at kaste sådanne byrder på os, ville komme til at se omfanget af deres grusomme kurs og komme tilbage bekendende deres uretfærdighed, ellers ville Guds misbilligende blik hvile over dem. Det var ikke bare mod os, at de havde talt og handlet, men mod ham, som havde kaldt os til at udfylde den plads, han ønskede, vi skulle udfylde; og at al deres mistanke, skinsyge og hemmelige indflydelse blev trofast nedtegnet i himmelen og ville ikke blive udslettet, før enhver, som havde taget del i dette, ville se omfanget af sin forkerte kurs og genkalde ethvert skridt.
