There is nothing too precious for us to give to Jesus. If we return to Him the talents of means which He has entrusted to our keeping, He will give more into our hands. Every effort we make for Christ will be rewarded by Him, and every duty we perform in His name will minister to our own happiness. God surrendered His dearly beloved Son to the agonies of the crucifixion, that all who believe on Him might become one through the name of Jesus. When Christ made so great a sacrifice to save men and bring them into unity with one another, even as He was united with the Father, what sacrifice is too great for His followers to make in order to preserve that unity? {4T 19.1}

Intet er for dyrebart for os at give til Jesus. Dersom vi giver ham de pengetalenter tilbage, som han har betroet i vor varetægt, vil han give os mere i hænde. Enhver bestræbelse, vi gør for Kristus, vil blive belønnet af ham og enhver pligt, vi udfører i hans navn, vil tjene til vor egen lykke. Gud overgav sin højt elskede søn til korsfæstelsens kvaler, for at alle, som tror på ham, kunne blive et i Jesu navn. Når Kristus bragte så stort et offer for at frelse menneskene og forene dem med hverandre, ligesom han var forenet med Faderen, hvilket offer er så for stort for hans efterfølgere at bringe for at kunne bevare denne enhed?
