"Point after point Paul lingered over, in order that those who should read his epistle might fully comprehend the wonderful condescension of the Saviour in their behalf. Presenting Christ as He was when equal with God and with Him receiving the homage of the angels, the apostle traced His course until He had reached the lowest depths of humiliation. Paul was convinced that if they could be brought to comprehend the amazing sacrifice made by the Majesty of heaven, all selfishness would be banished from their lives. He showed how the Son of God had laid aside His glory, voluntarily subjecting Himself to the conditions of human nature, and then had humbled Himself as a servant, becoming obedient unto death, “even the death of the cross” ( Philippians 2:8 ), that He might lift fallen man from degradation to hope and joy and heaven. AA 333.1"
"And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."
Ellen White directly references Philippians 2:8 in this passage.
"threatened only misery and despair, in the light reflected from the cross reveals the writing of God: Live, sinner, live! ye penitent, believing souls, live! I have paid a ransom. AA 333.2"
"But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."
The EGW passage echoes the sentiment of Isaiah 53:5, focusing on the healing and life offered through Christ's sacrifice, although it's not a direct quote.
"In the contemplation of Christ we linger on the shore of a love that is measureless. We endeavor to tell of this love, and language fails us. We consider His life on earth, His sacrifice for us, His work in heaven as our advocate, and the mansions He is preparing for those who love Him, and we can only exclaim, O the height and depth of the love of Christ! “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.” 1 John 4:10 ; 3:1 . AA 333.3"
"Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins."
Ellen White directly references 1 John 4:10 in this passage.
"And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God."
Both passages discuss the immeasurable love of Christ. The EGW passage even uses the phrase 'height and depth of the love of Christ' which is thematically linked to Ephesians 3:19.
"In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."
The EGW passage references Christ preparing mansions, which is a clear thematic parallel to John 14:2.
