“Held in the vicelike grip of human weakness, man is unable to lift himself above the low motives and fleshly desires of his unregenerated carnal mind. A power from above and outside of himself must take control. Nearly two thousand years ago God invaded human history in the person of His only begotten Son. In so doing, God not only supplied the perfect example but also made available the power which is needed to lift man from the pit of ruin.”
—Message, December, 1961, “He is Our Peace,”
