Chapter 8—Pride and Vain Thoughts - Dear Children P and Q, - You are deceived in regard to yourselves. You are not Christians. To be true Christians is to be Christlike. You are far from the mark in this respect; but I hope that you will not be deceived until it is too late for you to form characters for heaven. {3T 81.2}

Kære børn P og Q: I er bedragede over for jer selv. I er ikke kristne. At være sande kristne vil sige at ligne Kristus. I den henseende er I langt fra dette; men jeg håber at I ikke vil være bedraget til det er for sent. for jer at danne en karakter for himlen.
