If it was right for brethren to take stock in our publishing house when our work was small and our influence narrow, is it not of more consequence today when a much larger work is going forward and a corresponding increase of means is needed? The evidences of our position have been increasing with every year. We have been receiving fresh assurance that we have the truth as revealed in the word of God, that in accepting the third angel’s message we have not given heed to fables, but to the “sure word of prophecy.” We are now living in the full blaze of the light of Bible truth. {4T 592.2}

Det var rigtigt at vore brødre tog aktier i vort forlag, da vort arbejde var lille og vor indflydelse snæver; men er det så ikke af større betydning i dag, når et meget større værk rykker frem og der er et tilsvarende større behov for midler? Beviserne for vor stilling er blevet større for hvert år. Vi har fået en ny forsikring om, at vi har sandheden som åbenbaret i Guds ord og når vi antager den tredje engels budskab, har vi ikke agtet os på fablerne, men på det "sikre profetiens ord". Vi lever nu i bibelsandhedens fulde flammelys.
