This is a time for everyone to come up to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord against the mighty. The forces of the enemy are strengthening, and as a people we are misrepresented. We desire the people to become acquainted with our doctrines and work. We want them to know what we are, and what we believe. We must find our way to their hearts. Let the army of the Lord be on the ground to represent the work and cause of God. Do not plead an excuse. The Lord has need of you. He does not do His work without the co-operation of the human agent. Go to the camp meeting, even though you have to make a sacrifice to do so. Go with a will to work. And make every effort to induce your friends to go, not in your place, but to go with you, to stand on the Lord’s side and obey His commandments. Help those who are interested to attend, if necessary providing them with food and lodging. Angels who are commissioned to minister to those who are heirs of salvation will accompany you. God will do great things for His people. He will bless every effort to honor His cause and advance His work. {6T 40.3}

Dette er en tid, da enhver bør komme Herren til hjælp, komme Herren til hjælp iblandt de vældige. Fjendens styrker forstærkes og som Herrens folk bliver vi fremstillet i et forkert lys. Vi ønsker, at folket skal få kendskab til vore lærdomme og vor virksomhed. Vi ønsker, at de skal vide, hvad vi er og hvad vi tror. Vi må finde vej til deres hjerter. Påberåb jer ingen undskyldning. Herren behøver jer. Han gør ikke sin gerning uden i samarbejde med det menneskelige redskab. Rejs til lejrmødet, selv om I må bringe et offer for at kunne gøre det. Rejs med vilje til at arbejde. Gør enhver anstrengelse for at formå jeres venner til at rejse, ikke i jeres sted, men at følge med jer, for at stå på Herrens side og lyde hans befalinger. Hjælp interesserede til at være med og skaf dem kost og logi, om så er nødvendigt. Engle, der udsendes til hjælp for sådanne, som er frelsens arvinger, vil ledsage jer. Gud vil gøre store ting for sit folk. Han vil velsigne enhver bestræbelse for at ære hans sag og fremme hans værk.
