Christ and Conformity—How wonderful is the work of grace upon the human heart! It gives mental power, wisdom to use the talent of means, not in self-pleasing but through self-denial, to carry forward missionary work. Christ, the Son of God, was a missionary to our world. He says, “Whoso will follow, let him forsake all.”Luke 14:33. You cannot love Him while copying the fashions of the world or enjoying worldly society.—Lt 238, 1907.
