Chapter 116<br />

Judge Not<br />

St. Helena, Cal., Jan. 12, 1906.<br />

Dear Brethren <strong>and</strong> Sisters in Battle Creek:--<br />

I wish to write you a few lines. I underst<strong>and</strong><br />

how the enemy is working, <strong>and</strong> I wish to say to<br />

every soul, "Judge not, that ye be not judged. For<br />

with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged;<br />

<strong>and</strong> with what measure ye mete, it shall be<br />

measured to you again." There are times when we<br />

have to take a decided st<strong>and</strong>, but, in magnifying the<br />

Lord, be sure that you do not condemn <strong>and</strong> make<br />

charges against others. It would cause all the<br />

powers of hell to rejoice if our people were to<br />

become divided. The way has been preparing for<br />

contention <strong>and</strong> division. Some are in great danger<br />

of drifting into infidelity. Now, let your study be to<br />

save these imperilled souls. I have sorrow, great<br />

sorrow of heart, that they do not underst<strong>and</strong> their<br />

bearings.<br />
