Hard for Youth to Bear Burdens.—The
young can exert a powerful influence if they will
give up their pride and selfishness and devote
themselves to God; but as a general thing they will
not bear burdens for others. They have to be
carried themselves. The time has come when God
requires a change in this respect. He calls upon
young and old to be zealous and repent. If they
continue in their state of lukewarmness, He will
spew them out of His mouth. Says the True
Witness, “I know thy works.” Young man, young
woman, your works are known, whether they be
good or whether they be evil. Are you rich in good
works? Jesus comes to you as a counselor: “I
counsel thee to buy of Me gold tried in the fire, that
thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou
mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy
nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes
with eyesalve, that thou mayest see” (Revelation
3:18).—Testimonies for the Church 1:485 (1867).
