by Ron Graybill | 18 May 2023 | Those who are familiar with Ellen White’s writings and who have spent time identifying sources from which she borrowed, sometimes run across passages which seem so uniquely colorful or eloquent that one suspects she borrowed the wording from some earlier source. By searching “Google Books,” or scanning […]
par Jimmy Trujillo | 2 mai 2023 | Troisième partie Une autre série de raisons m’empêche de distribuer ce livre. Il s’agit de raisons théologiques. Le protestantisme: synonyme de moralité? A de multiples reprises, Ellen White établit un lien entre l’acceptation de la Réforme, qui pour elle équivaut à l’acceptation de la Parole de Dieu, […]
par Jimmy Trujillo | 27 avril 2023 | Deuxième partie Encore plus importante que les autres, une raison qui motive ma décision est l’affirmation de l’intention de l’autrice. Elle écrit: Grâce à l’illumination du Saint Esprit, les scènes du conflit séculaire entre le bien et le mal m’ont été présentées.[1] Il s’agit du conflit entre […]
par Jimmy Trujillo | 20 avril 2023 | Première partie Interprétation prophétique et histoire: une histoire d’amour? Dans le premier article, je signalais que le livre contenait un nombre important d’erreurs historiques. (Erreurs «par répétition»; erreurs «par sélection de la portion d’histoire retenue»; erreurs «par exagération»). J’ai donné quelques exemples de ces erreurs. Certains parmi nous […]

by Loren Seibold | 30 March 2023 | For a long time I’ve been noticing what I call “folk theologies”—notions that are commonly assumed among believers, though no one can show any evidence for them. These are simplistic concepts that come about for reasons that have little to do with the Bible, but take up […]
SILVER SPRING, Maryland —— General Conference (GC) senior leadership rushed into an emergency meeting this morning after a researcher at the White Estate forwarded a memo claiming “irrefutable evidence Ellen White (EGW) thought Doritos were way better than Fritos in haystacks.” GC leaders are struggling with how to frame the new evidence given the fact […]
SILVER SPRING, Maryland — Today, over 120 years after sending Ellen G. White to Australia, the General Conference (GC) has issued a formal statement apologizing for “what was unequivocally a low move.” White was sent as a missionary to Australia after she clashed with GC leaders in the early 1890s while advocating for a number […]
by Stephen Ferguson | 27 January 2023 | I was conversing with some ex-Adventist the other day when I came across a claim that Seventh-day Adventist pioneer and prophetess Ellen White was an alcoholic. It seemed farfetched to me. However, after doing my own research, I was able to find Mrs. White’s own words on […]
19 January 2023 | In our family album there’s a picture of the groundbreaking ceremony for my childhood church. I’m three years old in that photograph, dressed in a navy 1960s swing coat, with a prim hat and curled hair. My grandfather is holding the shovel while I, the youngest member of our congregation, press […]
by Jim Walters | 7 January 2023 | Ellen White was born into a devout shouting Methodist family, and coped with poor health and limited education. Nevertheless, Ellen rose to become a canonized authority in world Adventism, and that 22-million-member church now holds her writings—in practice, if not in doctrine—equal to the Bible. Consider two […]
By Loren Seibold | 29 July 2018 | Recently a friend in the General Conference building said to me (she had a smile on her face, but she was serious) “I like Adventist Today, but there’s one thing I’m having a hard time forgiving you for.” “What’s that?” I asked. “That article with a ‘proposed […]
