  7. CONSTANT, SELF-DENYING BENEVOLENCE IS GOD'S REMEDY FOR THE CANKERING SINS OF SELFISHNESS AND COVETOUSNESS. GOD HAS ARRANGED SYSTEMATIC BENEVOLENCE TO SUSTAIN HIS CAUSE AND RELIEVE THE NECESSITIES OF THE SUFFERING AND NEEDY. HE HAS ORDAINED THAT GIVING SHOULD BECOME A HABIT, THAT IT MAY COUNTERACT THE DANGEROUS AND DECEITFUL SIN OF COVETOUSNESS. Continual giving starves covetousness to death. SYSTEMATIC BENEVOLENCE IS DESIGNED IN THE ORDER OF GOD TO TEAR AWAY TREASURES FROM THE COVETOUS AS FAST AS THEY ARE GAINED AND TO CONSECRATE THEM TO THE LORD, TO WHOM THEY BELONG. (Testimonies for the Church, VOL. 3, P. 548)

  8. LIKE OUR SAVIOUR, WE ARE IN THIS WORLD TO DO SERVICE FOR GOD. WE ARE HERE TO BECOME LIKE GOD IN CHARACTER, AND BY A LIFE OF SERVICE TO REVEAL HIM TO THE WORLD. IN ORDER TO BE CO-WORKERS WITH GOD, IN ORDER TO BECOME LIKE HIM AND TO REVEAL HIS CHARACTER, WE MUST KNOW HIM ARIGHT. WE MUST KNOW HIM AS HE REVEALS HIMSELF.(The Ministry of Healing, P. 409)

  9. THE CROSS WAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE POWER OF ROME. IT WAS THE INSTRUMENT OF THE MOST CRUEL AND HUMILIATING FORM OF DEATH. THE LOWEST CRIMINALS WERE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE CROSS TO THE PLACE OF EXECUTION; AND OFTEN AS IT WAS ABOUT TO BE LAID UPON THEIR SHOULDERS, THEY RESISTED WITH DESPERATE VIOLENCE, UNTIL THEY WERE OVERPOWERED, AND THE INSTRUMENT OF TORTURE WAS BOUND UPON THEM. BUT JESUS BADE HIS FOLLOWERS TAKE UP THE CROSS AND BEAR IT AFTER HIM. TO THE DISCIPLES HIS WORDS, THOUGH DIMLY COMPREHENDED, POINTED TO THEIR SUBMISSION TO THE MOST BITTER HUMILIATION,--SUBMISSION EVEN UNTO DEATH FOR THE SAKE OF CHRIST.

  10. NO MORE COMPLETE SELF-SURRENDER COULD THE SAVIOUR’S WORDS HAVE PICTURED. BUT ALL THIS HE HAD ACCEPTED FOR THEM. JESUS DID NOT COUNT HEAVEN A PLACE TO BE DESIRED WHILE WE WERE LOST. HE LEFT THE HEAVENLY COURTS FOR A LIFE OF REPROACH AND INSULT, AND A DEATH OF SHAME. HE WHO WAS RICH IN HEAVEN’S PRICELESS TREASURE, BECAME POOR, THAT THROUGH HIS POVERTY WE MIGHT BE RICH. WE ARE TO FOLLOW IN THE PATH HE TROD. (The Desire of Ages, PP. 416, 417)

  12. THIS MESSAGE HAS LOST NONE OF ITS FORCE. IT IS JUST AS FRESH IN ITS IMPORTANCE AS GOD'S GIFTS ARE FRESH AND CONTINUAL. THERE IS NO DIFFICULTY IN UNDERSTANDING OUR DUTY IN THE LIGHT OF THIS MESSAGE, GIVEN THROUGH GOD'S HOLY PROPHET. WE ARE NOT LEFT TO STUMBLE ALONG IN DARKNESS AND DISOBEDIENCE. THE TRUTH IS PLAINLY STATED, AND IT CAN BE CLEARLY UNDERSTOOD BY ALL WHO WISH TO BE HONEST IN THE SIGHT OF GOD. A TITHE OF ALL OUR INCOME IS THE LORD'S. HE LAYS HIS HAND UPON THAT PORTION WHICH HE HAS SPECIFIED THAT WE SHALL RETURN TO HIM, AND SAYS, I ALLOW YOU TO USE MY BOUNTIES AFTER YOU HAVE LAID ASIDE THE TENTH, AND HAVE COME BEFORE ME WITH GIFTS AND OFFERINGS.

  13. THE LORD CALLS FOR HIS TITHE TO BE GIVEN IN TO HIS TREASURY. STRICTLY, HONESTLY, AND FAITHFULLY, LET THIS PORTION BE RETURNED TO HIM. BESIDES THIS, HE CALLS FOR YOUR GIFTS AND OFFERINGS. NO ONE IS COMPELLED TO PRESENT HIS TITHE OR HIS GIFTS AND OFFERINGS TO THE LORD. (Counsels on Stewardship, P. 82)
