The possessor and giver of eternal life, Christ was the only one who could conquer death. He is our Redeemer; and blessed is every physician who is in a true sense of the word a missionary, a savior of souls for whom Christ gave His life. Such a physician learns day by day from the Great Physician how to watch and work for the saving of the souls and bodies of men and women. The Saviour is present in the sickroom, in the operating room; and His power for His name’s glory accomplishes great things. {6T 231.1}

Som den, der besidder og giver evigt liv, var Kristus den eneste, der kunne besejre døden. Han er vor Genløser; og lykkelig er enhver læge, som i ordets rette forstand er en missionær, en redningsmand for sjæle, for hvem Kristus gav sit liv. Dag efter dag vil en sådan læge lære af den Store Læge, hvordan han skal våge og virke for at frelse menneskers sjæle og legemer. Frelseren er til stede i sygeværelset, i operationsstuen; og til hans navns ære udretter hans magt store ting.
