SECTION 19 OF 85

Chapter 16

1-3. See EGW on 2 Timothy 3:14, 15.

14 (2 Corinthians 8:12). Light for Those Who Are Willing—God’s Spirit can only enlighten the understanding of those who are willing to be enlightened. We read that God opened the ears of Lydia, so that she attended to the message spoken by Paul. To declare the whole counsel of God and all that was essential for Lydia to receive—this was the part Paul was to act in her conversion; and then the God of all grace exercised His power, leading the soul in the right way. God and the human agent cooperated, and the work was wholly successful (Letter 150, 1900).
