"Of every gift that God has bestowed, leading men to unselfish effort, a record is kept in heaven. To trace this in its wide-spreading lines, to look upon those who by our efforts have been uplifted and ennobled, to behold in their history the outworking of true principles—this will be one of the studies and rewards of the heavenly school. Ed 306.1"
"Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name."
The EGW passage speaks of a record being kept in heaven of gifts and efforts, which directly parallels the 'book of remembrance' mentioned in Malachi 3:16. Both passages emphasize God's awareness and recording of righteous deeds.
"soul will find truest and sweetest exercise. The pure communion with holy beings, the harmonious social life with the blessed angels and with the faithful ones of all ages, the sacred fellowship that binds together “the whole family in heaven and earth”—all are among the experiences of the hereafter. Ed 306.2"
"Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,"
EGW directly quotes Ephesians 3:15.
