What does Ellen White write about...

Adventistische Schriften über: "Can cooking be a good deed? Give me an example."

Answer

Yes, cooking can be considered a good deed because it directly affects the health and well-being of others. Ellen Gould White repeatedly emphasizes that cooking is a valuable science and that preparing healthy food deserves high recognition. An example of such a good deed is teaching others how to prepare healthy meals or serving as a cook to help people.

Cooking as a valuable science

»Cooking may be regarded as less desirable than some other kinds of work, but in reality it is a science that is of greater value than all other sciences. This is how God regards the preparation of healthy food. He highly values those who render faithful service in preparing healthy, appetizing food.«

Teaching cooking as a good service

»Good service can be rendered by teaching people how to prepare healthy meals. This work is as essential as any other.«

Religion in cooking

»There is more religion in a loaf of good bread than many of you think. There is more religion in good cooking than you can imagine.«

Cooking as medical missionary work

»The skillful preparation of food is one of the most essential arts, ranking above music lessons or sewing. The foundation for keeping people healthy is the medical missionary work of good cooking.«

Why I built EGW Vision

Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.

EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.

My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
