"I thought of our Saviour, who labored so untiringly for the good of others. “My Father worketh hitherto, and I work” ( John 5:17 ), He declared. The sanctification that He taught was shown by deeds of kindness and mercy, and the love that leads men and women to regard others better than themselves. LS 80.2"
"But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work."
Ellen White directly references John 5:17 in this passage.
"In speaking of faith, one of them said, “All that we have to do is to believe, and whatever we ask of God will be given us.” LS 80.3"
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:"
The EGW passage quotes someone saying that believing is all that is needed to receive whatever is asked of God. This directly relates to the principle found in Matthew 7:7, which encourages asking, seeking, and knocking with the promise of receiving.
"Elder White suggested that there were conditions attached to this promise. “‘If ye abide in Me,’ Christ said, ‘and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.’ John 15:7 . Your theory of faith,” he continued, “must have a foundation.” LS 80.4"
"If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you."
Ellen White directly references John 15:7 in this passage.
