I saw that the minds of some of the church have not run in the right channel. There have been some peculiar temperaments that have had their notions by which to measure their brethren. And if any did not exactly agree with them, there was trouble in the camp at once. Some have strained at a gnat and swallowed a camel. {1T 144.4}

Jeg så, at nogles tanker i menigheden ikke har fulgt de rette baner. Der har været nogle; ejendommelige naturer, der har haft deres egne ideer, som de måler deres brødre med; og dersom der var nogen, der ikke var ganske enige med dem, var der straks uro i lejren. Nogle har siet myggen fra og slugt kamelen.
