Criticism Spotlight
"Mrs. White's Health Visions: Was it God? Or Dr. Jackson?"   Some claim that Ellen White got her health reform material from Dr. James C. Jackson instead of from vision. We examine the evidence here, and while we had difficulty confirming the claim, we did uncover a case of plagiarism of another sort.

Insightful Info
Zinc Stored in the Brain   Back in 1870, Ellen White wrote of a substance in the brain that was needed to nourish the system. A century later, scientists confirmed that zinc, which the brain contains a lot of, is indeed an important nutrient for humans. They have also confirmed that zinc plays a part in many digestive and metabolic processes. Lucky guess? Coincidence? Inspired? You decide.

Her Beliefs

Quote for Today (How we select)
    "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.

About Her Visions
"None of the Disgusting Grimaces or Contortions Which Usually Attend Spiritualist Mediums"   George Butler adds his testimony, describing the various phenomena that occurred during Ellen White's visions. He adds that, unlike the spiritualist mediums, her demeanor in vision was "calm, dignified, and impressive, her very appearance strikes the beholder with reverence and solemnity."
