Spalding and Magan's Unpublished Manuscript Testimonies - Ellen G. White

to uplift and ennoble them?
All people, of whatever nationality, are
amenable to the same law. All will be judged
according to their deeds. All, both white and black,
have the same offer of salvation. God has given to
all the promise of the same heaven on the same
terms. What right have we, then, to pass the
colored people by without doing our best to save
them?
And when God inspires in men and women the
desire to help these poor, neglected, ignorant ones,
to educate them to establish schools, to teach them
to be self-supporting, should we not encourage
these workers? Should we not do all in our power
to help those who work for the people of the South,
both white and black, striving to instruct them, to
lead them to have faith in Jesus?
Seventh-day Adventists have done something
in this field. The work has been carried forward in
hardship and difficulty, against the stress of
poverty.
