"Right Attitude of the Christian The Eternal God has drawn the line of distinction between the saints and the sinners, the converted and the unconverted. The two classes do not blend into each other imperceptibly, like the colors of the rainbow. They are as distinct as midday and midnight. CT 341"
"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?"
The EGW passage directly echoes the principle of separation between believers and unbelievers found in 2 Corinthians 6:14. The imagery of distinct classes is a clear parallel to the biblical call for separation.
"everlasting righteousness. The soul is aglow with these grand and elevating themes. Holiness and truth, grace and righteousness, occupy the thoughts. Self dies, and Christ lives in His servants. In contemplation of the word their hearts burn within them as did the hearts of the two disciples while they went to Emmaus and Christ walked with them by the way and opened to them the scriptures concerning Himself. CT 341.2"
"And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?"
The EGW passage explicitly mentions the story of the disciples on the road to Emmaus and their hearts burning within them as Christ opened the scriptures. This is a direct reference to Luke 24:32.
"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."
The EGW passage speaks of Christ living in His servants and the soul being aglow with righteousness, which aligns with the theme of Galatians 2:20 where Paul describes being crucified with Christ and Christ living in him. The emphasis on Christ's indwelling presence and the transformation of the believer connects the two passages.
