梅尔罗斯和洛马林达都是非常美丽的地方。各自都有很好的优势，这两个靠近城市的地方将为真理开辟道路，让许多从未听说过真理的人了解真理。{PC 215.1}

Melrose and Loma Linda are both very beautiful places. Each has excellent advantages, and these two places near cities will open the way for the truth to find access to many people who have never heard it.{PC 215.1}

赫斯格长老夫妇已经开始在圣贝纳迪诺工作，他们正在不遗余力地工作。他们正在尽最大努力。他们认真努力，使工人们都精神抖擞，并有兴趣推销书报，工作确实已经站稳脚跟。一些人已经采取了他们的立场。{PC 215.2}

Elder Haskell and wife have begun work at San Bernardino, and they are sparing no pains. They are doing their best. They labor earnestly to keep the workers all alive and interested to sell the literature, and the work is certainly taking hold. Some souls have already taken their stand.{PC 215.2}

我们深感兴趣，要看到各城开工。我们希望我们在波士顿的工人们会在主里有勇气。主必快来，需要让每一才干都得到善用。{PC 215.3}

我已见过旧金山市，看到了它所呈现的何等毁坏荒凉的景象。我们花了一个半小时驱车穿过废墟。当我们看到如此彻底的破坏时，我们几乎没有意识到，加利福尼亚州最大的城市已经成为废墟。{PC 215.4}

I have seen the city of San Francisco, and what a scene of devastation it presents. We were an hour and a half riding through the ruins. As we looked at such complete destruction, we could hardly realize that the largest city in California was in ruins.{PC 215.4}

我们现在要尽一切可能将真理摆在人们面前。《时兆》的特刊乃是一个媒介，藉以成就许多善事。{PC 215.5}

如果我年轻二十五岁，我肯定会开始在城市里操劳。但我必须用笔来接近他们。{PC 215.6}

If I were twenty-five years younger, I would certainly take up labor in the cities. But I must reach them with the pen.{PC 215.6}

看看旧金山的高楼大厦，其中一些有一面还在，它似乎要说，耶和华的手指一碰触，最昂贵最高的大楼就会成为废墟。这些高楼的一堵高墙在我们正看着它的时候倒塌了。毁灭的完全性无法描述。……{PC 215.7}

Looking at the tall buildings in San Francisco, some of them having one side still standing, it seemed to say, The touch of the Lord’s finger will lay in ruins the most costly and the highest of buildings. One of the standing walls of these high structures came down with a crash as we were looking at it. The completeness of the ruin cannot be described....{PC 215.7}

我们不知道接下来会发生什么以唤醒人们去研究圣经的真理。耶和华的日子会出人意外的来到，就像夜间的贼。如果这些可怕的灾难不能给我们留下深刻的印象，什么才会呢？{PC 215.8}

We know not what may come next to arouse the people to investigate Bible truth. The day of the Lord will come unlooked for, as a thief in the night. If these awful calamities do not make an impression on our minds, what will?{PC 215.8}

“你们也要预备，因为你们想不到的时候，人子就来了”（太24:44）。{PC 215.9}

“Be ye also ready, for in such a day as ye think not, the Son of man cometh.”{PC 215.9}
