To those who are desirous of becoming efficient laborers in the cause of God I would say, If you are putting an undue amount of labor on the brain, thinking you will lose ground unless you study all the time, you should at once change your views and your course. Unless greater care is exercised in this respect, there are many who will go down to the grave prematurely. {CT 296.3}

Dem som ønsker at blive effektive medarbejdere i Guds sag, vil jeg sige: Hvis I pålægger hjernen en upassende mængde arbejde, tror at I vil miste grundlaget medmindre I studerer hele tiden, bør I straks ændre jeres synspunkt og jeres adfærd. Hvis der ikke udvises stor omhu i denne henseende, er der mange som vil gå for tidligt i graven.
