Spalding and Magan's Unpublished Manuscript Testimonies - Ellen G. White

To every man is given his work. In the
representation of the parable, the householder gave
the talents to his servants "according to their
several ability." All are not in possession of the
same capabilities. Each has a special work to do,
that there may be no schism in the body of Christ.
Each is to take up his special place and turn with
patience the race that is set before him.
We have moral and social obligations to meet.
There is an abundance of work for all to do. Many
are groping in darkness and following the paths of
selfish gratification, while professing the name of
Christ. They have not felt the responsibility
developing upon them to grow up to the full stature
of men and women in Christ Jesus. Such ones need
the help of a kind heart, a helpful hand, to lead
them back into the paths of righteousness. As
Christians we have a special work before us which
if we will do in humility of mind, God will honor
with his blessing.
(Signed) Ellen G. White.
