I saw that Sister B had much to grieve over in the course that her husband had pursued toward her; that her life had been very sad, when he was able to make it happy. She seemed to be dispirited and to keenly feel that she was neglected and unloved by her husband. In his absence she at times felt nearly distracted and became jealous and distrustful in regard to him. Satan was present with his temptations, and she looked upon some things in an exaggerated light. All this might have been saved had Brother B preserved his consecration to God. I was carried on still further and saw that he was walking in unbelief and darkness while he was flattering himself that he alone had the true light. The further he separated from God the less love did he have for his brethren and for the truth. {3T 439.1}

Jeg så at søster B havde meget at bedrøves over med hensyn til den måde hun var blevet behandlet af sin mand på; at hendes liv har været meget ulykkeligt, skønt han var i stand til at gøre hende lykkelig. Det er som om hun er forstemt og som om hun føler inderst inde at han forsømmer hende og han ikke elsker hende. Når han er væk føler hun sig nogen gange splittet og bliver skinsyg og mistænker ham. Satan var til stede med hans fristelser og hun så på nogle ting i et stærkt overdrevet lys. Alt dette kunne være sparet hvis bror B havde bevaret sin helligelse til Gud. Jeg blev ført endnu længere frem og så at han vandrede i vantro og mørke medens han bildte sig selv ind at han alene havde det sande lys. Jo mere han blev adskilt fra Gud jo mindre kærlighed havde han for sine brødre og for sandheden.
