Section 2—Literature in Service [A portion of this matter was published first in 1908.]“The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.” Psalm 68:11.Our PublicationsThe great and wonderful work of the last gospel message is to be carried on now as it has never been before. The world is to receive the light of truth through an evangelizing ministry of the word in our books and periodicals. Our publications are to show that the end of all things is at hand. I am bidden to say to our publishing houses: “Lift up the standard; lift it up higher. Proclaim the third angel’s message, that it may be heard by all the world. Let it be seen that ‘here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.’ Revelation 14:12. Let our literature give the message as a witness to all the world.” {9T 61.1}

(61) [Det sidste evangeliske budskabs store vidunderlige værk skal nu udføres, som det aldrig er blevet før. Verden skal modtage lyset fra sandheden gennem den evangeliserende tjeneste, ordet i vore bøger og blade udfører. Vore skrifter skal vise, at alle tings ende er nær. Det er blevet mig pålagt at sige til vore forlag: "Løft banneret! Løft det højere op! Forkynd den tredje engels budskab, så det kan blive hørt overalt i verden. Det må kunne ses, at det er »de hellige der holder fast ved Guds bud og troen på Jesus.« Åb. 14,12. Lad vor litteratur bringe budskabet som et vidnesbyrd for hele verden.”
