Sanitarium, Napa Co., Cal.,March 4, 1907.
§4
我蒙指示，应该鼓励南方工作，应该帮助在纳什维尔、麦迪逊和亨茨维尔的工作。{SpM 400.4}
§5
I have been instructed that encouragement should be given to the work in the South, and that special help should come to the work in Nashville, Madison, and Huntsville.?{SpM 400.4}
§6
在麦迪逊的学校已有必要以最严格的节俭作工，以便那里开始进行的教育工作能够得到推进。要让我们有钱财的弟兄们记住这所学校和它的需要。{SpM 400.5}
§7
At the school in Madison it has been necessary to work with the strictest economy that the educational work undertaken there might be carried forward. Let our brethren who have means remember this school and its needs.?{SpM 400.5}
§8
马根弟兄和萨瑟兰弟兄在贝林斯普林斯成就了一项善工，他们在那个地方工作时过了自己的力量，危害了他们的健康，甚至他们的生命。他们在麦迪逊的工作中，又在非常辛苦地工作，并且处在许多困难中。这些弟兄不仅需要我们的信任，而且需要我们的帮助，以便将麦迪逊学校安置在它能完成上帝计划的工作的地方。我祈求主圣化我们的人的悟性，使这些人不至于被撇下，去如此作工以致将他们的健康牺牲在他们正设法去做的事上。我祈愿教师和学生们能有智慧和勇气很好地尽他们的本分，且愿他们能特别蒙福，使学校取得成功。{SpM 400.6}
§9
A good work was done by Brethren Magan and Sutherland at Berrien Springs, and in their labors in that place they labored beyond their strength, imperilling their health, and even their lives. In their work at Madison, they are working too hard,?and amid many difficulties. These brethren need not only our confidence, but also our help, that they may place the Madison School where it can accomplish the work that God designs it to do. I pray that the Lord will sanctify the understanding of our people that these men will not be left to so work as to sacrifice their health in what they are trying to do. I pray that teachers and students may have wisdom and courage to act well their part, and that they may be especially blessed in making the school a success.?{SpM 400.6}
§10
若不慷慨地将适合南方工作的资金分给麦迪逊学校，就不可能使这所学校成为应有的样子。我们的弟兄们愿意在基督的灵里尽他们的本分吗？{SpM 401.1}
§11
It is impossible to make the Madison School what it should be unless it is given a liberal share in the means that shall be appropriated for the work in the South. Will our brethren act their part in the Spirit of Christ??{SpM 401.1}
§12
被忽视的南方由于过去的忽视现在应该特别受到优待。应当充分完全地弥补过去的失败以满足这个园地的需要。在南方多年来本应站在有利地位的机构现在应当特别受到优待。亨茨维尔学校必须受到鼓励好扩大它的工作。应当将每一可能的有利条件都给予这些学校，以便它们可以表明能够做什么使大地产出她的宝物。麦迪逊和亨茨维尔学校应当成为他们附近的人的一个实物教训。{SpM 401.2}
§13
The neglected South is to be especially favored now, because of the neglect of the past. The atonement for the failure of the past to meet the needs of this field, should be full and ample. The institutions in the South that for years should have stood on vantage ground are now to be especially favored. The Huntsville school must be encouraged to enlarge its work. Every possible advantage should be given to these schools, that they may show what can be done in making the earth to yield her treasures. The Madison and Huntsville Schools are to be an object lesson to the people in their vicinity.?{SpM 401.2}
§14
我蒙指示看见这些学校有计划受限、优势受限的危险。这是不应当的。应该采取一切可能的措施，鼓励那些需要在这些学校得到指导的学生，以便他们受到适当的指导，可以前去为其他需要接受他们所接受的教育和培训的人做一番工作。园地在每一个方面都在向这种工人能做的工作开放。{SpM 401.3}
§15
I was shown that there is danger of these schools being circumscribed in their plans and limited in their advantages. This should not be. Everything possible should be done to encourage the students who need the class of instruction that can be given at those schools, that they may go forth properly instructed to do a work for others who need the same education and training that they have received. Fields are opening in every side to the work that such laborers could do.?{SpM 401.3}
§16
在亨茨维尔需要有一所疗养院与学校相连。我有兴趣看到在那个学校农场上有一栋大楼为治疗病人装备好了。{SpM 401.4}
§17
At Huntsville a sanitarium is needed in connection with the school. I am interested to see a building on that school farm, equipped for the treatment of the sick.?{SpM 401.4}
§18
难道在麦迪逊和亨茨维尔的学生不能受训去销售《基督比喻实训》和《服务真诠》吗？我们的许多人难道不愿加入到这项工作中来吗？{SpM 401.5}
§19
Can not the students at Madison and Huntsville be trained to sell the books, “Christ’s Object Lessons” and “Ministry of Healing”? And will not many of our people join them in this work??{SpM 401.5}
§20
为了纳什维尔里面和周围的病人，我们应该尽我们所能把它建立在坚实的基础上。这项工作应该以一种简单的方式进行，但要以一种会推荐真理的方式进行。在南方有许多地方向我们的工作开放；但无论如何，要在重要城市开始工作，现在就传递信息。“万军之耶和华如此说：‘过不多时，我必再一次震动天地、沧海，与旱地。我必震动万国；万国所羡慕的必来到，我就使这殿满了荣耀。这是万军之耶和华说的’”（该2:6,7）。{SpM 401.6}
§21
For the sick in and about Nashville, we should do all we can to put it on a solid basis. The work should be conducted in a simple way, but in a way that will recommend the truth. There are many places in the South open to our work; but by all means begin the work in the important cities, and carry the message now. “For thus saith the Lord of hosts, Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; and I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations will come; and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.”?{SpM 401.6}
