A signpost was erected by God for those journeying through this world. One arm of this signpost pointed out willing obedience to the Creator as the road to felicity and life, while the other arm indicated disobedience as the path to misery and death. The way to happiness was as clearly defined as was the way the city of refuge under the Jewish dispensation. But in an evil hour for our race, the great enemy of all good turned the signpost round, so that ever since multitudes have mistaken the way.

Et vejskilt var sat af Gud for de rejsende igennem denne verden. En pil på dette vejskilt pegede mod villig lydighed til Skaberen, som vejen til lykke og liv, medens den anden pil viste mod ulydighed som stien til elendighed og død. Vejen til lykke var ligeså klart angivet som vejen til tilflugtsbyen under var den jødiske styring. Men på et ondt øjeblik i vort væddeløb, vendte den store fjende mod alt godt vejskiltet om, så at store skarer lige siden har gået den forkerte vej.
