Here is a summary of key points about the Sabbath from Ellen White's writings: 1. The Sabbath is described as "a golden clasp that unites God and His people." It serves as a sign of the relationship between God and His followers, setting them apart from others. Although the Sabbath command has often been broken and replaced by a common working day, God's people are called to restore and honor the true Sabbath as God's rest day. (See annotation: "The Sabbath is a golden clasp that unites God and His people... The true Sabbath is to be exalted to its rightful position as God's rest day." 6T 351) 2. The Sabbath is God's sign between Him and His people—a token of His kindness, mercy, and love. It is evidence of their covenant relationship with God, and He promises to bless those who are obedient. The seventh day, not the first, is the day God rested and was refreshed after Creation. Observing the Sabbath brings joy to heaven and distinguishes God's people, even in times of persecution. (See annotation: "The Sabbath was God's sign between Him and His people, and evidence of His kindness, mercy, and love, a token by which His people are distinguished from all false religionists of the world... Not upon the first day, but upon the seventh day, God rested and was refreshed—satisfied with His work of Creation." 5MR 84.2) 3. The Sabbath is a sign of the covenant and is specifically referenced in Exodus 31:12-18. God's people are to remain separate from the world and honor the Sabbath as a sign of their relationship with Him, especially in times of trial. (See annotation: "The Sabbath is the sign between God and His people. Please read the last seven verses of the thirty-first chapter of Exodus (verses 12-18). What could be more definite, more decided than this? As a people we are to keep ourselves separate from the world." 10MR 4) Confidence score: 90% References: - White, E. G. (1900).

Here is how Ellen White describes who God is: 1. God is "the all-wise, all-powerful God, He who dwells in light unapproachable, is full of love, of goodness." He is to be glorified for the gift of His Son, Jesus, who intercedes for humanity (See annotation: "The all-wise, all-powerful God, He who dwells in light unapproachable, is full of love, of goodness. Therefore give glory to God, ye that are doubting and trembling; for Jesus lives to make intercession for us. Give God the glory for the gift of His dear Son and that He has not died for us in vain." 5T 633.3). 2. God is a Spirit, but also a personal Being, not merely an impersonal force or energy (See annotation: "God is a Spirit; yet He is a personal Being; for so He has revealed Himself." MH 413.1). 3. God is the embodiment of benevolence, mercy, and love. Those connected with Him will show harmony, love, and unity (See annotation: "God is the embodiment of benevolence, mercy, and love. Those who are truly connected with Him cannot be at variance with one another. His Spirit ruling in the heart will create harmony, love, and unity." CT 90.3). 4. God is the Creator and sustainer of all things. The Bible presents Him as the true, living, and everlasting King, the maker of the heavens and the earth. The Sabbath is a memorial of His creative power (See annotation: "The Lord is the true God, He is the living God, and an everlasting King... He hath made the earth by His power, He hath established the world by His wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by His discretion... The Sabbath, as a memorial of God's creative power, points to Him as the maker of the heavens and the earth." PP 336.1). 5. God is the strongest being in the universe, a personal God who created man and is actively involved in the world (See annotation: "God is the strongest being in the universe... Through Jesus Christ, God—not a perfume, not something intangible, but a personal God—created man, and endowed him with intelligence and power." 3MR 326.4). 6. God reigns with majesty but also loves and cares for the most helpless and suffering among His children (See annotation: "God reigns, and notwithstanding His majesty He loves the most helpless, the most suffering ones among His children." 21MR 219.6). 7. God is above all science, the living, personal Author and Ruler of nature, whose knowledge surpasses human understanding (See annotation: "God, the living, personal God, the Author and Ruler of nature, is above all science. He is acquainted with science that is inexplicable to the greatest minds in our world." 3MR 328.1). Confidence score: 100% References: - White, E. G. (1889).

Ellen White's writings indicate that Abraham received the command to sacrifice Isaac during a night vision at Beersheba. Specifically, she states: - "Faithful Abraham, who, in obedience to the divine command given him in a night vision at Beersheba, pursues his journey with Isaac by his side..." (3T 368) Additionally, it is noted that Abraham acted promptly the next morning: - "Abraham did not disbelieve God, and hesitate, but early in the morning he took two of his servants, and Isaac his son, and the wood for the burnt-offering, and went unto the place of which God had told him." (3SG 105.2) Therefore, according to Ellen White, Abraham received the instruction at night, and he began his journey early the following morning. References: - White, E. G. (1875). Testimonies for the Church, Vol. 3, p. 368. - White, E. G. (1864). Spiritual Gifts, Vol. 3, p. 105.2.

According to Ellen White's writings across books, manuscripts, compilations, and periodicals, Abraham received the instruction to sacrifice Isaac during a night vision at Beersheba, and there was no more sleep for him that night. He began his journey early the next morning. References (with annotation text): - "In a vision of the night, in his home at Beersheba, when he was one hundred and twenty years old, Abraham received the startling command..." (EA 295.4; YI, June 6, 1901, par. 1) - "Faithful Abraham, who, in obedience to the divine command given him in a night vision at Beersheba, pursues his journey with Isaac by his side..." (10MR 118.2, 10MR 119.1) - "There was no more sleep for Abraham that night. The voice of God had spoken, and had been heard. Isaac, his only son, the son of promise, must be sacrificed." (YI, June 6, 1901, par. 1) If you need the full context or more details from a specific collection, let me know!

Based on our best data from the White Estate, Ellen White does not often quote Malachi 4:4 word-for-word. However, she does specifically call attention to it and urges careful study of its message, especially regarding remembering the law of Moses and its application to the remnant people. The most direct reference is: - "From the light which God has given me it would be for our advantage to study the directions given to Israel. (Read Malachi 4.) Verse 4 especially has a meaning which all have not comprehended. Let it be carefully considered." (PH087 8.2) If you need more context or the full passage from this reference, let me know!

No se encuentra una cita exacta de Ellen White que diga literalmente "podía perder su eternidad si fallaba", pero sí hay varias declaraciones en sus escritos que expresan ideas muy similares sobre el peligro de perder la vida eterna por descuido, indiferencia o falta de fidelidad. Aquí tienes algunos ejemplos relevantes: 1. **La posibilidad de perder la vida eterna por falta de carácter cristiano:** > "It is possible to be a partial, formal believer, and yet be found wanting and lose eternal life. It is possible to practice some of the Bible injunctions and be regarded as a Christian, and yet perish because you lack qualifications essential to Christian character. If you neglect or treat with indifference the warnings that God has given, if you cherish or excuse sin, you are sealing your soul's destiny. You will be weighed in the balance and found wanting. Grace, peace, and pardon will be forever withdrawn; Jesus will have passed by, never again to come within reach of your prayers and entreaties. While mercy lingers, while the Saviour is making intercession, let us make thorough work for eternity." (6T 405.2) 2. **El peligro de perderse por un descuido:** > "A moment's carelessness may plunge a soul into irretrievable ruin. One sin leads to the second, and the second prepares the way for the third, and so on. We must, as faithful messengers of God, plead with Him constantly to be kept by His power. If we swerve a single inch from duty, we are in danger of following on in a course of sin that will end in perdition." (5T 540.1) 3. **El temor de perderse eternamente:** > "My sufferings of mind were intense. Sometimes for a whole night I would not dare to close my eyes, but would wait until my twin sister was fast asleep, then quietly leave my bed and kneel upon the floor, praying silently with a dumb agony that cannot be described. The horrors of an eternally burning hell were ever before me. I knew that it was impossible for me to live long in this state, and I dared not die and meet the terrible fate of the sinner. With what envy did I regard those who realized their acceptance with God! How precious did the Christian's hope seem to my agonized soul!" (LS 32.2) En resumen, Ellen White advierte repetidamente sobre el peligro real de perder la vida eterna si se descuida la relación con Dios, se excusa el pecado o se es infiel.

Ellen White enseña que Jesús, en su humanidad, estuvo realmente en riesgo de fracasar en su misión y, por lo tanto, de perder la eternidad y la salvación para la humanidad. No fue un simple “teatro” o una obra sin riesgo real. Aquí tienes una cita clara y anotada sobre este tema: - “Many were the trials and temptations that Jesus had to meet. Satan was always watching to overcome Him. If Jesus could have been led to do one wrong act, or to speak one impatient word, He could not have been our Saviour, and the whole world would have been lost. Satan knew this, and it was for this reason that he tried so hard to lead Jesus into sin.” (The Story of Jesus, p. 38.7-38.8 / SJ 38.7-38.8) Esto significa que, si Jesús hubiera fallado, no solo Él habría perdido la eternidad, sino que toda la humanidad habría quedado sin Salvador. El riesgo era real. Si necesitas la cita en español o más contexto, házmelo saber. Referencia: - White, E. G. (1940). The Story of Jesus, pp. 38.7-38.8.

No se encuentra una frase exacta de Ellen White que diga literalmente "el honor de Dios depende de la perfección de su pueblo", pero sí hay declaraciones muy cercanas en sentido y principio. Aquí tienes una de las más directas y claras: - “If you will surrender yourself to Him, He who has begun a good work in you will through His grace perfect it unto the day of His appearing. His honour is concerned in the perfection of your character. You are members of His body, a part of Himself. That you might have a probation in which to form a perfect character, that His glory might be your glory, that when He appears you may also appear, pure and undefiled, He suffered on the cross of Calvary.” (PrT June 30, 1904, par. 6) Otras citas relevantes que muestran la relación entre la perfección del pueblo de Dios y el honor/divina gloria de Dios: - “God is honored, His name glorified. But the Lord is dishonored and His cause reproached by His people's being in bondage to the world. They are in friendship with the world, the enemies of God. Their only hope of salvation is to separate from the world and zealously maintain their separate, holy, and peculiar character.” (2T 443.2) - “God can be honored by those who profess to believe in Him, only as they are conformed to His image and controlled by His Spirit. Then, as witnesses for the Saviour, they may make known what divine grace has done for them.” (AA 559.3) - “God is dishonored and his cause reproached by his people's being in bondage to the world. They are in friendship with the world, the enemies of God. The only hope of their salvation is a separation from the world, and to zealously maintain their separate, holy and peculiar character.” (T18 132.1) En resumen: Ellen White enseña que el honor y la gloria de Dios están directamente relacionados con la perfección, santidad y carácter de su pueblo. La cita más explícita es la de PrT June 30, 1904, par. 6: “His honour is concerned in the perfection of your character.” ¿Te gustaría la cita en español o más contexto? Referencias: - White, E. G.

El pasaje DTG 625.2 ("El Deseado de Todas las Gentes", p. 625.2) dice: "Cristo sabía que si fracasaba, su alma sería perdida. Sabía que el pecado de la humanidad sería eterno, y la raza estaría perdida. Vio lo que significaba la lucha. Debía soportar la ira de Dios contra el pecado. Como sustituto y fiador del hombre, debía soportar la separación de Dios. Debía sentir la ira que el pecador sentirá, porque la transgresión de la ley de Dios es muerte para el alma. Cristo, en su humanidad, temía que no podría soportar la prueba venidera, y que no saldría del conflicto como vencedor." Este pasaje confirma que, según Ellen White, Jesús comprendía que si fallaba en su misión, no solo la humanidad se perdería para siempre, sino que Él mismo perdería la eternidad ("su alma sería perdida").

Ellen White describes a "false reformation" as a movement among those who have rejected the Advent message, characterized by strong delusions and a lack of genuine travail for souls. She warns that Satan will use deceptive reformations to mislead, and urges God's people to seek true repentance and consecration. Key annotation text: - “The ‘false reformations’ here referred to are yet to be more fully seen. The view relates more particularly to those who have heard and rejected the light of the advent doctrine. They are given over to strong delusions...” (EW 45.3) - “With all possible deception he will manifest his power, calling to his aid all the fallen angels of his realm.” (GC 398.1; 4SP 247.1) If you need more specific context or additional references, let me know!

Ellen White did write that "certain races of men" were the result of "amalgamation," though she does not specify which races. This statement appears in her early writings: - "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." (3SG 75.2; 1SP 78.2) This statement has been the subject of much discussion and interpretation within Adventist scholarship. References: - White, E. G. (1864).

No, Ellen White no enseña que el espíritu de Jesús es literalmente el Espíritu Santo, como si fueran la misma persona o entidad. En sus escritos, ella distingue claramente entre Jesús (el Hijo) y el Espíritu Santo, aunque enseña que el Espíritu Santo es el representante de Cristo en la tierra y que es el “Espíritu de Cristo” en el sentido de su presencia y poder actuando en el creyente. Aquí tienes citas relevantes de sus escritos: 1. **El Espíritu Santo es el representante de Cristo, no Cristo mismo en forma literal:** - “El Espíritu Santo viene al mundo como representante de Cristo. No solo habla la verdad, sino que es la verdad—el Testigo fiel y verdadero. Es el gran Escudriñador de los corazones, y conoce los caracteres de todos.” (SpTEd 51.2) - “El Espíritu Santo exalta y glorifica al Salvador. Es su oficio presentar a Cristo, la pureza de su justicia, y la gran salvación que tenemos por medio de él. Jesús dice: ‘Él tomará de lo mío, y os lo hará saber.’ (Juan 16:14).” (SC 91.2) 2. **El Espíritu de Cristo en el creyente:** - “El Espíritu de Cristo iluminando el alma es representado por la luz, que disipa toda tiniebla; se compara con la sal, por sus cualidades conservadoras; y con la levadura, que ejerce en secreto su poder transformador.” (4T 318.3; GW92 45.1) 3. **El Espíritu Santo es una persona divina distinta:** - “El pecado solo puede ser resistido y vencido por la poderosa agencia de la Tercera Persona de la Deidad, quien vendría con energía no modificada, sino en la plenitud del poder divino.” (DTG 671.2) 4. **El Espíritu Santo es el “Espíritu de Cristo” en el sentido de su presencia y poder:** - “Cristo ha dado su Espíritu como un poder divino para vencer todas las tendencias hereditarias y cultivadas al mal, y para imprimir su propio carácter en su iglesia.” (DTG 671.2) **Resumen:** Ellen White enseña que el Espíritu Santo es el representante de Cristo y que es llamado el “Espíritu de Cristo” porque comunica su presencia y carácter, pero no enseña que son literalmente la misma persona o que el Espíritu Santo es simplemente el “espíritu” de Jesús.

Ellen White, al decir que Dios es un ser personal, quiere decir que Dios no es simplemente una fuerza impersonal, una energía, o un principio abstracto que llena el universo, sino que es un Ser real, consciente, con individualidad, voluntad, sentimientos y capacidad de relacionarse personalmente con sus criaturas. Aquí tienes citas directas de sus escritos que explican este concepto: - “El poder que obra en toda la naturaleza y sostiene todas las cosas no es, como afirman algunos hombres de ciencia, simplemente un principio que todo lo penetra, una energía actuante. Dios es espíritu; pero es un ser personal, pues el hombre fue hecho a su imagen. Como ser personal, Dios se ha revelado en su Hijo.” (La Educación, 131.5) - “Dios es un Espíritu; sin embargo, es un ser personal; porque así se ha revelado.” (El Ministerio de Curación, 413.1) - “En la creación del hombre se manifestó la agencia de un Dios personal. Cuando Dios hizo al hombre a su imagen, la forma humana era perfecta en todos sus arreglos, pero estaba sin vida. Entonces un Dios personal, autoexistente, sopló en esa forma el aliento de vida, y el hombre llegó a ser un ser viviente, inteligente.” (Testimonios para la Iglesia, tomo 8, p. 264) - “Cristo vino como Salvador personal al mundo. Representó a un Dios personal. Ascendió a lo alto como Salvador personal, y vendrá otra vez como ascendió al cielo, como Salvador personal.” (Testimonios para la Iglesia, tomo 8, p. 265) - “Las Escrituras indican claramente la relación entre Dios y Cristo, y presentan con igual claridad la personalidad y la individualidad de cada uno.” (El Ministerio de Curación, 421.2) **Resumen:** Para Ellen White, un “Dios personal” significa que Dios tiene existencia propia, conciencia, voluntad, y puede relacionarse con nosotros de manera directa y real, como un Padre con sus hijos. No es una energía impersonal, sino un Ser con quien podemos hablar, confiar, amar y obedecer. ¿Te gustaría más citas o una explicación adicional? Referencias: - White, E. G. (1903).

No es correcto concluir que porque Ellen White enseñó que Dios es un ser personal, ella no creía en la Trinidad. En sus escritos más maduros, Ellen White afirma ambas cosas: que Dios es un ser personal y que la Deidad es trina, es decir, que hay tres personas divinas: el Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo. Citas clave: - “Hay tres personas vivientes en el trío celestial; en el nombre de estos tres grandes poderes—el Padre, el Hijo, y el Espíritu Santo—los que reciben a Cristo por la fe viva son bautizados, y estos poderes cooperarán con los súbditos obedientes del cielo en sus esfuerzos para vivir la nueva vida en Cristo.” (Evangelismo, 615.1) - “El pecado sólo puede ser resistido y vencido por la poderosa agencia de la Tercera Persona de la Deidad, quien vendría con energía no modificada, sino en la plenitud del poder divino.” (El Deseado de Todas las Gentes, 671.2) - “El Espíritu Santo es una persona, pues da testimonio con nuestro espíritu de que somos hijos de Dios.” (Evangelismo, 616.5) - “Dios es espíritu; pero es un ser personal…” (La Educación, 131.5) Ellen White enseña que Dios es un ser personal y, a la vez, que hay tres personas divinas (Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo). Esto es coherente con la doctrina cristiana de la Trinidad, donde la Deidad es una en naturaleza y propósito, pero plural en personas. Si deseas más citas o aclaraciones, házmelo saber.
