"The Passion of the Christ" With all the publicity about Mel Gibson's new movie, it's interesting to note
a few things Ellen White had to say about contemplating the closing scenes of Christ's life.
Perhaps the transforming power she attributes to those scenes is what Mel found so helpful
in his own spiritual life. |

| Her Beliefs |
Hell & Eternal Torment Ellen White most certainly believed in hell, but she also firmly believed in
John 3:16. For this reason and others, her understanding of hell was more like that of Isaac
Watts and seventeenth-century General Baptists than that of John Calvin. See what you
think of her views. |

| "The Elder Brother of our race is by the eternal throne. He looks
upon every soul who is turning his face toward Him as the Saviour.
He knows by experience what are the weaknesses of humanity, what are
our wants, and where lies the strength of our temptations; for He was
in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. He is watching
over you, trembling child of God. Are you tempted? He will deliver.
Are you weak? He will strengthen. Are you ignorant? He will
enlighten. Are you wounded? He will heal." | | (Desire of Ages 329) |

| Fulfilled or Fallacy? |
The National Sunday Law Like most Seventh-day Adventists, Ellen G. White believed that
Sunday worship would one day be enforced by law, while obedience to the fourth commandment
would be prohibited. In this series we look at her prediction, the 1880's, and recent
statements by Pat Robertson, Pope John Paul, and others. |
