"You are now sowing seed in the great field of life, and that which you now sow you will one day reap. Every thought of your mind, every emotion of your soul, every word of your tongue, every act you perform, is seed that will bear fruit for good or evil. The reaping time is not far distant. All our works are passing in review before God. All our actions and the motives which prompted them are to be open for the inspection of angels and of God. 4T 63.1"
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
EGW directly references the concept of sowing and reaping, which is the central theme of Galatians 6:7. The connection is clear and intentional.
"As far as possible, you should come into harmony with your brethren and sisters. You should surrender yourselves to God and cease to manifest sternness and a disposition to find fault. You should yield your own spirit and take in its place the spirit of the dear Saviour. Reach up and grasp His hand, that the touch may electrify you and charge you with the sweet properties of His own matchless character. You may open your hearts to His love, and let His power transform you and His grace be your strength. Then will you have a powerful influence for good. Your moral strength will be equal to the closest test of character. Your integrity will be pure and sanctified. Then will your light break forth as the morning. 4T 63.2"
"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:"
EGW's call to take on the spirit of the Saviour directly reflects the principle of Philippians 2:5, which encourages believers to have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.
"You both need to come more into sympathy with other minds. Christ is our example; He identified Himself with suffering humanity; He made the necessities of others a consideration of His own. When His brethren suffered, He suffered with them. Any slight or neglect of His disciples is the same as if done to Christ Himself. Thus He says: “I was an hungered, and ye gave Me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me no drink.” 4T 63.3"
"For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:"
EGW directly quotes Matthew 25:42, making the connection undeniable.
"Dear brother and sister, you should seek for more harmonious characters. The absence of one essential qualification may render the rest almost inefficient. The principles you profess should be carried into every thought, word, and act. Self should be crucified and the entire being made subordinate to the Lord. 4T 63.4"
"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."
Both passages emphasize the need to crucify self and live for Christ. EGW's statement about self being crucified echoes the sentiment expressed in Galatians 2:20.
