"“These things have I spoken unto you,” said Christ, “that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” John 15:11 . MH 504.1"
"These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full."
Ellen White directly references John 15:11 in this passage.
"cheered by the thought that He would not have all this travail for nought. By giving His life for the life of men, He would restore in humanity the image of God. He would lift us up from the dust, reshape the character after the pattern of His own character, and make it beautiful with His own glory. MH 504.2"
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."
The EGW passage speaks of Christ restoring the image of God in humanity, reshaping character after His own pattern. This directly relates to Genesis 1:27, which states that man was initially created in God's image. The EGW passage elaborates on the restoration of that image through Christ's sacrifice. The connection is valid and meaningful.
"Christ saw of the travail of His soul and was satisfied. He viewed the expanse of eternity and saw the happiness of those who through His humiliation should receive pardon and everlasting life. He was wounded for their transgressions, bruised for their iniquities. The chastisement of their peace was upon Him, and with His stripes they were healed. He heard the shout of the redeemed. He heard the ransomed ones singing the song of Moses and the Lamb. Although the baptism of blood must first be received, although the sins of the world were to weigh upon His innocent soul, although the shadow of an unspeakable woe was upon Him; yet for the joy that was set before Him He chose to endure the cross and despised the shame. MH 504.3"
"But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."
The EGW passage directly quotes Isaiah 53:5, making it a clear and undeniable explicit allusion.
"This joy all His followers are to share. However great and glorious hereafter, our reward is not all to be reserved for the time of final deliverance. Even here we are by faith to enter into the Saviour's joy. Like Moses, we are to endure as seeing the Invisible. MH 504.4"
"By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible."
The EGW passage directly alludes to Hebrews 11:27, specifically mentioning Moses enduring as seeing the invisible.
"Now the church is militant. Now we are confronted with a world in darkness, almost wholly given over to idolatry. But the day is coming when the battle will have been fought, the victory won. The will of God is to be done on earth as it is done in heaven. The nations of the saved will know no other law than the law of heaven. All will be a happy, united family, clothed with the garments of praise and thanksgiving—the robe of Christ's righteousness. All nature, in its surpassing loveliness, will offer to God a tribute of praise and adoration. The world will be bathed in the light of heaven. The light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold greater than it is now. The years will move on in gladness. Over the scene the morning stars will sing together, the sons of God will shout for joy, while God and Christ will unite in proclaiming, “There shall be no more sin, neither shall there be any more death.” MH 504.5"
"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."
The EGW passage directly references the concept of God's will being done on earth as it is in heaven, which is the core message of Matthew 6:10.
"After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;"
Both passages describe a multitude from all nations clothed in white robes, standing before God. While not a direct quote, the thematic overlap is significant.
