"Dangerous Amusements for the Young The desire for excitement and pleasing entertainment is a temptation and a snare to God's people, and especially to the young. Satan is constantly preparing inducements to attract minds from the solemn work of preparation for scenes just in the future. Through the agency of worldlings he keeps up a continual excitement to induce the unwary to join in worldly pleasures. There are shows, lectures, and an endless variety of entertainments that are calculated to lead to a love of the world; and through this union with the world, faith is weakened. CT 325"
"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him."
EGW's warning against loving the world and its pleasures directly reflects the principle stated in 1 John 2:15.
"Satan is a persevering workman, an artful, deadly foe. Whenever an incautious word is spoken, whether in flattery or to cause the youth to look upon some sin with less abhorrence, he takes advantage of it and nourishes the evil seed, that it may take root and yield a bountiful harvest. He is in every sense of the word a deceiver, a skillful charmer. He has many finely woven nets, which appear innocent, but which are skillfully prepared to entangle the young and unwary. The natural mind leans toward pleasure and self-gratification. It is Satan's policy to fill the mind with a desire for worldly amusement, that there may be no time for the question, How is it with my soul? CT 325.2"
"And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
While not a direct quote, the EGW passage echoes the idea of Satan as a deceiver who presents himself in a seemingly harmless way, which is consistent with the concept of Satan transforming into an angel of light in 2 Corinthians 11:14.
"But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way."
Both passages discuss the sowing of evil seeds, although the EGW passage elaborates on Satan's methods of deception, while the Matthew verse is a parable about the enemy sowing tares. The connection is thematic but not a direct allusion.
