Based on our best data from the White Estate, Ellen G. White did write about the "amalgamation of man and beast" in her early works, specifically in "Spiritual Gifts" (3SG 64.1, 75.2) and "Spirit of Prophecy" (1SP 69.1, 78.2). She stated that before the flood, there was a "base crime of amalgamation of man and beast which defaced the image of God, and caused confusion everywhere," and that "since the flood there has been amalgamation of man and beast, as may be seen in the almost endless varieties of species of animals, and in certain races of men." However, the White Estate recognizes that these statements have generated significant discussion and controversy, especially regarding their meaning and implications. The official position is that Ellen White did not provide detailed explanations of what she meant by "amalgamation," and the White Estate cautions against speculative or dogmatic interpretations. They emphasize the importance of understanding the historical context and language usage of the 19th century, and recommend consulting their official statements and FAQs for further clarification.

Ellen G. White clearly identifies the Sabbath as the "seal" of God in several of her writings. Here are key points and direct annotated references from her books: 1. The Sabbath as the Seal of God's Law: - "The Sabbath is the sign of God; it is the seal of his law. ... The sign or seal of God is his Sabbath, and the seal or mark of the beast is in direct opposition to it; it is a counterfeit Sabbath on the 'day of the sun.'" (4SP 505.3) - "The seal of God's law is found in the fourth commandment. This only, of all the ten, brings to view both the name and the title of the Lawgiver. It declares Him to be the Creator of the heavens and the earth, and thus shows His claim to reverence and worship above all others." (GC 452.1; GC88 451.3) 2. The Sabbath as a Sign: - "The sign, or seal, of God is revealed in the observance of the seventh-day Sabbath, the Lord's memorial of creation." (8T 117.3) - "In Exodus 31:17 and Ezekiel 20:12, 20, the Sabbath of the Lord is called a sign. It is a memorial of the Creator's work, and so a sign of his power and Godhead." (4SP 504.5; GC88 690.4) 3. The Sabbath in the Final Conflict: - "The Sabbath question is to be the issue in the great final conflict in which all the world will act a part. ... But God has set His seal upon His royal requirement. Each sabbath institution bears the name of its author, an ineffaceable mark that shows the authority of each." (6T 352.1) 4. The Sabbath and Loyalty: - "The keeping of the true Sabbath, in obedience to God's law, is an evidence of loyalty to the Creator. ... the other, choosing the token of allegiance to divine authority, receive the seal of God." (GC88 605.2) 5. The Sabbath as a Sign of Sanctification: - "The Sabbath given to the world as the sign of God as the Creator is also the sign of Him as the Sanctifier. ... To those who keep holy the Sabbath day it is the sign of sanctification." (6T 350.1) In summary, Ellen G. White consistently teaches that the Sabbath is the seal of God, representing His authority as Creator and Lawgiver, and is a sign of sanctification and loyalty to Him. This concept is central to her understanding of end-time events and the distinction between the followers of God and those who accept the "mark of the beast." Academic references: - White, E. G.
