Ellen White’s writings affirm a belief in the unity and distinctness of the Godhead, often referred to as “3 in 1” or the Trinity, though she typically used the term “Godhead.” Here are key points from her books: 1. Unity and Distinctness: - She wrote, “Christ the Word, the Only Begotten of God, was one with the eternal Father,—one in nature, in character, and in purpose,—the only being in all the universe that could enter into all the counsels and purposes of God.” (GC 493.1) - “I and My Father are one,” Christ declared. (MH 419.2; 8T 265.3) 2. Christ’s Divinity and Relationship to the Father: - “Jesus, the outshining of the Father's glory, ‘and the express image of His person’ (Hebrews 1:3), was on earth found in fashion as a man. As a personal Saviour He came to the world. As a personal Saviour He ascended on high. As a personal Saviour He intercedes in the heavenly courts.” (Ed 131.5; 8T 265) 3. The Holy Spirit: - She refers to the “sanctification of his Holy Spirit” as part of the believer’s experience with God (SpTEd 220.1), indicating the Holy Spirit’s personal and divine role. 4. The Godhead as Personal: - “God is a spirit; yet He is a personal being, for man was made in His image. As a personal being, God has revealed Himself in His Son.” (Ed 131.5) 5. The Eternal Nature of Christ: - “with God. John 1:1, 2. Christ, the Word, the only begotten of God, was one with the eternal Father—one in nature, in character, in purpose—the only being that could enter into all the counsels and purposes of God.” (PP 34.1) Summary: Ellen White taught that the Godhead consists of three distinct, co-operating persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—united in nature, character, and purpose. She emphasized the personal nature of each, their unity, and the divinity of Christ and the Holy Spirit, aligning with the concept of “3 in 1.” If you need more specific statements or further clarification, please let me know!
