The Lord had shown me the character and final come-out of the party; that His frown was upon those connected with that paper, and His hand was against them, and although they might appear to prosper for a time, and some honest ones be deceived, yet truth would eventually triumph, and every honest soul would break away from the deception which had held them, and come out clear from the influence of these wicked men; as God’s hand was against them, they must go down. {LS 155.2}

Herren havde vist mig karakteren af denne gruppe og deres endelige udfald; at hans misbilligelse var bundet til dette papir og hans hånd var imod dem. Og selv om de kunne vise en vis fremgang og nogle ærlige bliver bedraget, ville sandheden alligevel sejre til sidst og enhver ærlig sjæl vil bryde med det bedrag, som har holdt dem og blive fri af de onde menneskers påvirkning; da Guds hånd var imod dem måtte de gå ned.
