"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 |
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) |

| Fulfilled or Fallacy? |
"No Safety in Possessing Flocks or Herds" Wacky as it sounds, Ellen G. White predicted that that it would become
unsafe to possess flocks and herds. Wackier yet are the news stories about kids getting
bird flu from kissing chickens, and prions being found in milk and urine. Who would have dreamed? |

| About Her Visions |
"I Am Quite Certain That She Did Not Breathe" Dr. Merrit G. Kellogg describes how Ellen White while in vision did not breathe.
He cites the evaluation of a Dr. Drummond who was present at a vision that he witnessed.
Also included on this page are the eyewitness accounts of D. H. Lamson, Drusilla Lamson,
David Seeley, and the Fowlers. |

Publishing and Traveling The office of publication
was at Middletown, eight miles from Rocky Hill, and he often
walked this distance and back again, although he was then lame.
When he brought the first number from the printing office, we
all bowed around it, asking the Lord, with humble hearts and
many tears, to let His blessing rest upon . . . . [more] |
