    “When the fanaticism came in Maine, it came in a manner similar to this, it was revealed to me that this was one of Satan’s works, to take the mind away from the God of heaven and place it on human inventions.25LtMs, Ms 67, 1911, par. 3

    “They would take some expressions in my testimonies and lose their meaning, while diverting minds from the true subject. It was shown to me that it was a satanic commercialism. They strove to heal the sick by making motions with their hands over them and endeavoring to have the patient see something of their description on the wall. This led to rank fanaticism.25LtMs, Ms 67, 1911, par. 4

    “Everything of this order that will take the mind from God, the author of our salvation, is the work of Satan concealed, to get their mind from God to some human agency; to take the mind away from the solid truth of God to some human invention.25LtMs, Ms 67, 1911, par. 5

    “This is one phase of Satan’s introduction to satanic commercialism. We are not to give a thought to anything of this order, because God has given us enough in His Word, and it is our only safety. All these are things to divert the mind from the commandments of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.25LtMs, Ms 67, 1911, par. 6

    “When all men will humble their hearts before God in simplicity, Christ will reveal Himself to them as their healer.”25LtMs, Ms 67, 1911, par. 7
