"beams of truth, that men might gain a fitness for heaven. “For this cause came I into the world,” He declared, “that I should bear witness unto the truth.” John 18:37 . He came to reveal the character of the Father, that men might be led to worship Him in spirit and in truth. CT 259.1"
"Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice."
EGW directly quotes John 18:37.
"Man's need for a divine teacher was known in heaven. The pity and sympathy of God were aroused in behalf of human beings, fallen and bound to Satan's chariot car; and when the fullness of time was come, He sent forth His Son. The One appointed in the councils of heaven came to this earth as man's instructor. The rich benevolence of God gave Him to our world, and to meet the necessities of human nature He took humanity upon Himself. To the astonishment of the heavenly host the eternal Word came to this world as a helpless babe. Fully prepared, He left the royal courts and mysteriously allied Himself with fallen human beings. “The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.” John 1:14 . CT 259.2"
"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
Ellen White directly references John 1:14 in this passage.
"But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,"
EGW directly quotes John 1:14 and alludes to Galatians 4:4. The passage clearly amplifies the biblical concept of God sending His Son.
"When Christ left His high command, He might have taken upon Him any condition in life that He chose. But greatness and rank were nothing to Him, and He chose the most humble walk of life. No luxury, ease, or self-gratification came into His experience. The truth of heavenly origin was to be His theme; He was to sow the world with truth, and He lived in such a way as to be accessible to all. CT 259.3"
"But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:"
EGW's description of Christ's humility and choosing a humble life directly echoes the sentiment in Philippians 2:7, where Christ is described as making himself of no reputation and taking the form of a servant.
