“We have nothing to fear for the future,
except as we shall forget
the way the Lord has led us,
and His teaching in our past history.”

IN THE GRIP OF FAITH
“Messages of every order and kind have been urged upon Seventh-day Adventists, to take the place of the truth which, point by point, has been sought out by prayerful study, and testified to by the miracle-working power of the Lord. But the waymarks which have made us what we are, are to be preserved, and they will be preserved, as God has signified through His word and the testimony of His Spirit. He calls upon us to hold firmly, with the grip of faith, to the fundamental principles that are based upon unquestionable authority.” —Special Testimonies, Series B, No. 2, p. 59 (1904)

PRIORITY
"I feel my spirit stirred within me. I feel to the depth of my being that the truth must be borne to other countries and nations and to all classes. Let the missionaries of the cross proclaim that there is one God, and one Mediator between God and man, who is Jesus Christ the Son of the Infinite God. This needs to be proclaimed throughout every church in our land." (Ms40-1891.78; 1888 Materials 886.3)

PERSPECTIVE
"Christ was hid in God, and God was revealed in the character of His Son. To this revelation Jesus desired the minds of the people to be directed." (The Ministry of Healing, 32)

PURPOSE
"The knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ expressed in character is an exaltation above everything else that is esteemed on earth or in heaven. It is the very highest education. It is the key that opens the portals of the heavenly city. This knowledge it is God’s purpose that all who put on Christ shall possess." (The Ministry of Healing, 457)
PRINCIPLES
"I beseech those who are laboring for God not to accept the spurious for the genuine. Let not human reason be placed where divine, sanctifying truth should be. Christ is waiting to kindle faith and love in the hearts of His people. Let not erroneous theories receive countenance from the people who ought to be standing firm on the platform of eternal truth. God calls upon us to hold firmly to the fundamental principles that are based upon unquestionable authority." (8T 298)

. . . Focused Ministry . . .
“The Galatians were given up to the worship of idols... And in the light of the cross many who had never before known of the true God, began to comprehend the greatness of the Father's love. “Thus the Galatians were taught the fundamental truths concerning ‘God the Father’ and ‘our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father.’ ‘By the hearing of faith’ they received the Spirit of God and became ‘the children of God by faith in Christ.’ Galatians 1:3, 4; 3:2, 26.” (AA 207.2-AA 208.1)

. . . Final Movement
"Of all the great religious movements since the days of the apostles, none have been more free from human imperfection and the wiles of Satan than was that of the autumn of 1844. Even now, after the lapse of many years, all who shared in that movement and who have stood firm upon the platform of truth still feel the holy influence of that blessed work and bear witness that it was of God" (GC 401).
