The Davidian Youth Society

"We have an army of youth today who can do much if they are properly directed and encouraged." -- General Conference Bulletin, Vol. (Jan. 29, 30, 1893). {WHR: 50.4}

"With such an army of workers as our youth, rightly trained might furnish, how soon the message of a crucified, risen, and soon-coming Saviour might be carried to the whole world!" -- Education, p. 271. {WHR: 50.5}

"Young men shoul

d search the Scriptures for themselves. They are not to feel that it is sufficient for those older in experience to find out the truth, that the younger ones can accept it from them as authority. The Jews perished as a nation because they were drawn from the truth of the Bible by their rulers, priests, and elders. Had they heeded the lessons of Jesus, and searched the Scriptures for themselves, they would not have perished. {WHR: 50.6}

"Young men in our ranks are watching to see in what spirit the ministers come to the investigation of the Scriptures; whether they have a teachable spirit, and are humble enough to accept evidence, and receive light from the messengers whom God chooses to send " -- Testimonies To Ministers, p. 109. {WHR: 51.1}
