cancerous. In 1976 two scientists established that dormant oncogenes in cells
can cause cancer if they become activated through environmental factors or viruses. |

| 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. |

| "Temptations often appear irresistible
because, through neglect of prayer and the study of the Bible,
the tempted one cannot readily remember God's promises
and meet Satan with the Scripture weapons. But angels are
round about those who are willing to be taught in divine
things; and in the time of great necessity they will bring to
their remembrance the very truths which are needed. Thus
'when the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the
Lord shall lift up a standard against him.' Isaiah 59:19." | | (Great Controversy 600) |

bird flu from kissing chickens, and prions being found in milk and urine. Who would have dreamed? |
