Criticism Spotlight |
"Contradiction #23: Deity Did Not Die" A critic thinks that Ellen White contradicted both herself and the Bible
when she wrote, in harmony with most Trinitarians, that Christ's human nature, not His divine
nature, died on Calvary. But we did find it a bit odd that this critic's web site on another page appears to
endorse this very view. |

Insightful Info |
The Jews Expected a Divine Messiah In describing the Apostle Paul's original objection to Christianity, Ellen White wrote that
he just couldn't accept the idea that the Messiah would be a mere man. Could it really be true that
first-century Jews believed that the Messiah wuld be divine? Statements by four different
Bible characters seem to confirm this view. |

"'Come unto Me,' is His invitation.
Whatever your anxieties and trials, spread out your case before
the Lord. Your spirit will be braced for endurance. The way will be
opened for you to disentangle yourself from embarrassment and difficulty.
The weaker and more helpless you know yourself to be, the stronger will
you become in His strength. The heavier your burdens, the more
blessed the rest in casting them upon the Burden Bearer. The rest that
Christ offers depends upon conditions, but these conditions are plainly
specified. They are those with which all can comply. He tells us just how His rest is to be found." | (Desire of Ages 329) |

Fulfilled or Fallacy? |
Slavery Revived at the End of Time It might sound odd, but Ellen G. White predicted that slavery would be revived
again. Could it ever happen? Actually, President George Bush thinks it already has.
He and his State Department are doing what they can to combat a slave trade today that
is larger than it ever was in yesteryear. |

Life Sketch Snippet |
Free at Last I now confided all my sorrows and perplexities
to my mother. She tenderly sympathized with and encouraged me,
advising me to go for counsel to Elder Stockman . . . .
Upon hearing my story, he placed his hand affectionately upon my head, saying with tears
in his eyes: "Ellen, you are only a child. Yours is a most singular experience for one of your
tender age. Jesus must be preparing you for some special work." [more] |
