    THE GENERAL CONFERENCE BULLETIN

    FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1903

    Each day, at 1:30, workers especially interested in the Sabbath-school department gather for informal counsel regarding their work.GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.1

    “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.2

    “Only be thou strong and very courageous that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses My servant commanded thee; turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.3

    Man’s ingenuity, his judgment, his power to execute, all come from God. To God’s service all should be devoted. The principles of the Bible are to control the Lord’s servants. His workers are ever to do justice and judgment, steadfastly keeping the way of the Lord. “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.” Make this the point round which your life centers, and then all things needed will be given you. Put the Redeemer’s interests before your own or those of any other human being. He has bought you, and all your powers belong to Him.—Unpublished Testimony.GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.4

    While the recommendation regarding the support of workers in needy fields was being discussed. Elder A. G. Daniells read the following list of the number of laborers different conferences have been supporting in fields outside of their own conference, during some part, or all of, the period of 1901-1902:—GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.5

    “Ohio, 5; Upper Columbia, 1; Kansas, 1; Michigan, 8; Wisconsin, 2; Western Washington, 1; California, 1 in 1901, and 14 in 1902; Oklahoma, 1; Vermont, 1; South Dakota, 1; Western Oregon, several; Indiana, 1; Nebraska, several; Iowa, 4 in 1901, and 7 in 1902. Fifty-two or more in all, at an expense of $55,409.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.6

    Of the high priest of Israel we read: “And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the Lord continually.” What a beautiful and expressive figure this is of the unchanging love that Christ has for His people! Our great high Priest, of whom Aaron was a type, bears His people upon His heart. His earthly ministers should have this lesson graven upon mind and heart. As they labor in connection with one another, they are to follow the example of Christ, cultivating His tenderness, revealing His kindness, His courtesy, His love.—Unpublished Testimony.GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.7

    “O praise the Lord, all ye nations; praise Him, all ye people. For His merciful kindness is great toward us; and the truth of the Lord endureth forever.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.8

    Unless the soul-temple is daily emptied of self, and prepared for the reception of the Holy Spirit, self will rule the entire being. The words and acts will be tarnished with selfishness. Christ will not appear in the life. There will be seen a self-confidence that is wholly inappropriate.—E. G. W.GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.9

    “And there shall be no more curse; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and His servants shall serve Him. And they shall see His face; and His name shall be in their foreheads.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.10

    “Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the Lord, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord against the mighty.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.11

    “For the kingdom is the Lord’s; and He is the governor among the nations.”GCB April 3, 1903, page 73.12
