Centers of Influence and Training
[The Review and Herald, May 2, 1912.] The
Lord has ordained that sanitariums be established
in many places to stand as memorials for Him. This
is one of His chosen ways of proclaiming the third
angel’s message. By this means the truth will reach
many who, but for these agencies, would never be
lightened by the brightness of the gospel message.
In the presentation of truth some will be attracted
by one phase of the gospel message and some by
another. We are instructed by the Lord to work in
such a way that all classes will be reached. The
message must go to the whole world. Our
sanitarium work is to help make up the number of
God’s people. Through this line of missionary
effort infidels will be converted. By the wonderful
restorations taking place in our sanitariums many
will be led to look to Christ as the healer of soul
and body.
