Infidel AuthorsMany think that in order to obtain an education it is necessary to study the productions of writers who teach infidelity, because their works contain some bright gems of thought. But who was the originator of these gems of thought? It was God, and God alone. He is the source of all light. Why should we wade through the mass of error contained in the works of pagans and infidels, for the sake of a few intellectual truths, when all truth is at our command? {8T 306.1}

Vantro forfattere
(306) Mange tror at det er nødvendigt, for at få en uddannelse, at studere skrifter fra dem som lærer vantro, fordi deres arbejde indeholder nogle klare guldkorn. Men hvem er bag disse guldkorn alene? Det var Gud og Gud alene. Han er al lysets kilde. Hvorfor skulle vi arbejde os møjsommeligt igennem en masse fejl, som er i hedninges og ugudeliges gerninger, for nogle få intellektuelles sandheders skyld, når hele sandheden er til vor rådighed?
