Teachers who will learn from the Great Teacher will realize the help of God as did Daniel and his fellows. They need to climb heavenward instead of remaining on the plain. Christian experience should be combined with all true education. “Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 2:5. Teachers and students should study this representation and see if they are of that class who, through the abundant grace given, are obtaining the experience that every child of God must have before he can enter the higher grade. In all their instruction teachers should impart light from the throne of God; for education is a work the effect of which will be seen throughout the ceaseless ages of eternity. {6T 153.3}

Lærere, der vil lade sig undervise af den store Lærer, vil (154) erfare Guds hjælp, ligesom Daniel og hans medbrødre gjorde. De behøver at stige opad mod himmelen i stedet for at forblive på sletten. Al sand uddannelse bør forenes med kristelig erfaring. »Og lad jer selv som levende stene opbygge til et åndeligt hus, til et helligt præsteskab, der bringer åndelige ofre, som ved Jesus Kristus er velbehagelige for Gud.« 1.Pet. 2,5. Lærere og elever bør studere denne udtalelse og se, om de tilhører den klasse, som ved den rige nåde, der er givet, tilegner sig den erfaring, ethvert Guds barn må have, inden det kan indtræde i den højere klasse. I al deres undervisning bør lærerne meddele lys fra Guds trone; for uddannelse er en gerning, hvis virkning vil vise sig gennem de endeløse evigheder.
