But when a precise line is laid down which the<br />

workers must follow in their efforts to proclaim the<br />

message, a limit is set to the usefulness of a great<br />

number of workers. I am charged to speak, saying,<br />

God seeth not as man seeth. Those who occupy<br />

responsible positions need to place a lower<br />

estimate upon the value of human wisdom <strong>and</strong> to<br />

esteem more highly the sanctification of the Spirit<br />

revealed in the lowliness <strong>and</strong> gentleness of Christ.<br />

They need to have the Holy Spirit come into their<br />

hearts <strong>and</strong> minds, to control their wills <strong>and</strong> to<br />

sanctify their tongues. When soul <strong>and</strong> mind <strong>and</strong><br />

body are converted to God, our physical strength<br />

<strong>and</strong> our desires will become working agencies for<br />

God. When the converting power of God<br />

transforms the life, we shall be educated by God<br />

himself to speak his words <strong>and</strong> work his works.<br />
