Christians who believe the present truth should manifest wisdom and foresight. They should not neglect the disposition of their means, expecting a favorable opportunity to adjust their business during a long illness. They should have their business in such a shape that, were they called at any hour to leave it, and should they have no voice in its arrangement, it might be settled as they would have had it were they alive. Many families have been dishonestly robbed of all their property and have been subjected to poverty because the work that might have been well done in an hour had been neglected. Those who make their wills should not spare pains or expense to obtain legal advice and to have them drawn up in a manner to stand the test. {3T 117.1}

Kristne som tror den nærværende sandhed burde vise visdom og fremsyn. De bør ikke vanrøgte deres midler og vente efter en god anledning til at bringe deres forretninger i orden under en lang sygdom. De bør have deres forretninger i en sådan tilstand at de til enhver tid kan forlade dem og har de ingen indflydelse på dem, må de bringe dem i orden, som de ville da de var involveret i dem. Mange familier er blevet uærligt frarøvet alle deres ejendomme og har været genstand for armod, fordi det arbejde som godt kunne gøres på en time er blevet forsømt. Dem som vil gennemføre deres vilje bør ikke spare på den smerte eller de udgifter der skal til, for at få gode råd og få det til at bestå prøven.
