 "Contradiction #15: Jesus Christ Not Truly God" Ellen White stands accused of contradicting the Bible when she wrote that
Jesus was "not the Lord God Almighty." The puzzling thing about this one, though, is
that our critic forgot to quote the last half of the sentence. That omitted half changes the meaning
of the sentence into something few Christians find heretical. |

| Her Beliefs |
Eschatology: The Millennium Ellen White's eschatology was most definitely pre-millennial. She believed in a
millennium composed of a literal 1000 years, immediately preceded by a literal second coming
of Christ. However, her view of what takes place during the millennium was somewhat
different from that of many evangelicals. See if you think her views were biblical or not. |

| "There are conscientious souls that trust
partly to God and partly to themselves. They do not look to
God, to be kept by His power, but depend upon watchfulness
against temptation and the performance of certain duties for
acceptance with Him. There are no victories in this kind of
faith. Such persons toil to no purpose; their souls are in
continual bondage, and they find no rest until their burdens are
laid at the feet of Jesus." | | (Faith and Works 38) |
