"All this He did that He might bring men power by which they might be overcomers. “All power,” He says, “is given unto Me.” Matthew 28:18 . And this He gives to all who will follow Him. They may demonstrate to the world the power that there is in the religion of Christ for the conquest of self. 9T 190.2"
"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth."
Ellen White directly references Matthew 28:18 in this passage.
"“Learn of Me,” Christ says, “and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” Matthew 11:29 . Why do we not learn of the Saviour every day? Why do we not live in constant communion with Him, so that in our connection with one another we can speak and act kindly and courteously? Why do we not honor the Lord by manifesting tenderness and love for one another? If we speak and act in harmony with the principles of heaven, unbelievers will be drawn to Christ by their association with us. 9T 190.3"
"Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls."
Ellen White directly references Matthew 11:29 in this passage.
"Christ came to break down every wall of partition. He came to show that His gift of mercy and love is as unconfined as the air, the light, or the showers of rain that refresh the earth. 9T 190.4"
"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."
Both passages emphasize the breaking down of barriers and the unifying power of Christ, promoting equality and oneness in Him.
"That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust."
Both passages use the imagery of natural elements (sun and rain) to illustrate God's impartial love and mercy, which extends to all people regardless of their righteousness.
