Those who will carry out in their lives the instruction given to the church through the apostle Peter will receive power from above. We are to live upon the plan of addition, giving all diligence to make our calling and election sure. We are to represent Christ in all that we say and do. We are to live His life. The principles by which He was guided are to shape our course of action toward those with whom we are associated. {9T 186.5}

De, der vil føre den undervisning ud i livet, (187) som er givet menigheden ved apostlen Peter, vil modtage kraft fra det høje. Vi skal leve efter additionsplanen og sætte al vor flid ind på at gøre vor kaldelse og udvælgelse sikker. Vi skal repræsentere Kristus i alt, hvad vi siger og gør. Vi skal leve hans liv. De principper, han blev ledet af, skal forme for handlinger overfor dem, vi omgås.
