Invitations Full of Compassion—There was marked authority in His requirements and promises, and His invitations were full of compassion and entreaty. How tenderly He said to the toiling people, “Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”(Matthew 11:28) ∙∙∙ With what power and compassion Jesus cried, “If any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink.”(John 7:37)—The Review and Herald, February 21, 1893.
