I was shown that so far as talk is concerned, A B is qualified to lead the meetings; but when moral fitness is weighed, he is found wanting. His heart is not right with God. When others are placed in a leading position, they have the opposing spirit of himself and his wife to meet. This unsanctified spirit is not manifested openly, but works secretly to hinder, perplex, and discourage those who are trying to do the very best they can. God sees this, and it will in due time receive its just reward. Rule or ruin is the policy of this brother, and his wife is now in no better condition herself. Her senses are perverted. She is not right with God. {4T 333.1}

Jeg fik vist at så vidt det angår tale, er AB kvalificeret til at lede møder; men når den moralske udmærkelse vejes, findes han for let. Hans hjerte er ikke med Gud. Når andre sættes i en ledende stilling, har de den modsatte mening end hvad han selv og hans hustru har. Denne uhelligede ånd udvises ikke åbenlyst, men arbejder i det skjulte for at hindre, forvirre og afskrække dem, som prøver at gøre det allerbedste de kan. Gud ser dette og det vil få en belønning til sin tid. Regler eller fordærv er denne brors politik og hans hustru er for øjeblikket ikke bedre selv. Hendes sanser er forvrængede. Hun har det ikke rigtigt med Gud.
