    Ellen White's Dream of April 1, 1874

    Cornell and Canright, who were studying plans for an evangelistic thrust with the California tent, were inclined to work the smaller towns.2BIO 408.3

    On the night of April 1 a dream was given to Ellen White. She wrote:2BIO 408.4

    I was given an impressive dream, in which was represented the instrumentality of the press in the work of giving the third angel's message to the world.2BIO 408.5

    I dreamed that several of the brethren in California were in council, considering the best plan for labor during the coming season. Some thought it wise to shun the large cities, and work in smaller places. My husband was earnestly urging that broader plans be laid, and more extended efforts be made, which would better compare with the character of our message.2BIO 408.6

    Then a young man whom I had frequently seen in my dreams came into the council. He listened with deep interest to the words that were spoken, and then, speaking with deliberation and authoritative confidence, said:2BIO 408.7

    “The cities and villages constitute a part of the Lord's vineyard. They must hear the messages of warning.... You are entertaining too limited ideas of the work for this time. You are trying to plan the work so that you can embrace it in your arms. You must take broader views. Your light must not be put under a bushel or under a bed, but on a candlestick, that it may give light to all that are in the house. Your house is the world.—Life Sketches of Ellen G. White, 208, 209.2BIO 408.8
