If the proper instruction were given, if the proper methods were followed, every church member would do his work as a member of the body. He would do Christian missionary work. But the churches are dying, and they want a minister to preach to them. They should be taught to bring a faithful tithe to God, that He may strengthen and bless them. They should be brought into working order, that the breath of God may come to them. They should be taught that unless they can stand alone, without a minister, they need to be converted anew, and baptized anew. They need to be born again. White 1. 88. 8 Materials, p.

Let them make every effort to qualify themselves to help those who know not the truth. God calls for earnest, whole- souled workers. The humble and contrite will learn by personal experience that beside Him there is no savior. REFRESHMENT FOR THE THIRSTY a. What does God promise to do for those who seek to carry out His will wholeheartedly? It is now that we are to expect a refreshing from the presence of the Lord. We should watch for the movings of God. Their present state of weakness will continue until Christ alone shall be exalted; until, with John the Baptist, they shall say from a humble and reverent heart: . Words have been given me to speak to the people of God: . Let humanity stand back, that all may behold Him in whom their hopes of eternal life are centered. It is through these souls that God will reveal that light and power which will lighten the whole earth with His glory. Describe the folly of the world in trusting to their idols. What refreshing news do these idol worshippers need to hear? Isaiah 4. 4: 2. 2; Psalm 1. And He will not permit any soul to be disappointed who is sincere in his longing for something higher and nobler than anything the world can offer. Constantly He is sending His angels to those who, while surrounded by circumstances the most discouraging, pray in faith for some power higher than themselves to take possession of them and bring deliverance and peace. In various ways God will reveal Himself to them and will place them in touch with providences that will establish their confidence in the One who has given Himself a ransom for all, . ENLARGING OUR BORDERS a. What does God want His despised, forsaken remnant to do? Psalm 5: 1. 1; Isaiah 5. Explain the assurance given to those who open their hearts and homes to others. Isaiah 5. 4: 2, 3; Hebrews 1. They must awake, spread their tents, and enlarge their borders. My brethren and sisters, you have been bought with a price, and all that you have and are is to be used to the glory of God and for the good of your fellow men. Christ died on the cross to save the world from perishing in sin. He asks your cooperation in this work. You are to be His helping hand. With earnest, unwearying effort you are to seek to save the lost. Remember that it was your sins that made the cross necessary. When you accepted Christ as your Saviour you pledged yourself to unite with Him in bearing the cross. For life and for death you are bound up with Him, a part of the great plan of redemption. Imbued with the Spirit of the Redeemer, he is ready to deny self, ready to take up the cross, ready to make any sacrifice for the Master. No longer can he be indifferent to the souls perishing around him. He is lifted above self- serving. He has been created anew in Christ, and self- serving has no place in his life. What amazing promises are associated with this type of missionary work? Isaiah 5. 4: 4, 5, 1. The precious things of the hills shall perish; but the soul that lives for God, unmoved by censure, unperverted by applause, shall abide forever with Him. PROMISING PROSPECTS AHEAD a. What does God want us to be to those around us, and what assurances are there for those who undertake this work? Chronicles 1. 6: 9; Isaiah 1. Among all nations, kindreds, and tongues, He sees men and women who are praying for light and knowledge. Their souls are unsatisfied; long have they fed on ashes. The enemy of all righteousness has turned them aside, and they grope as blind men. But they are honest in heart and desire to learn a better way. Although in the depths of heathenism, with no knowledge of the written law of God nor of His Son Jesus, they have revealed in manifold ways the working of a divine power on mind and character. The Holy Spirit is implanting the grace of Christ in the heart of many a noble seeker after truth, quickening his sympathies contrary to his nature, contrary to his former education. A solemn work is to be done in a short space of time. PERSONAL REVIEW QUESTIONS 1. If we are truly converted, what should we be willing to do in our churches? Explain the disadvantage of large congregations. To whom only will light be given, and what will they do with this light? What steps can we take to help those who are blindly groping for light?
