"The worth of a soul cannot be fully estimated by finite minds. How gratefully will the ransomed and glorified ones remember those who were instrumental in their salvation! No one will then regret his self- denying efforts and persevering labors, his patience, forbearance, and earnest heart yearnings for souls that might have been lost had he neglected his duty or become weary in well-doing. 5T 620.3"
"For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?"
The EGW passage emphasizes the immense value of a soul and the importance of efforts to save them, which aligns with the principle in Matthew 16:26 that nothing can compensate for the loss of one's soul.
