What does Ellen White write about...

Adventistische Schriften über: "Ellen White’s statement that any explanation of sin would amount to justifying it and that the origin of sin is an unsolvable mystery"

Answer

Ellen White explains that the origin of sin cannot be explained and that no reason for its existence can be given. She says that to excuse sin would be to defend it; if a cause for it could be shown, it would cease to be sin.

The Origin of Sin Is Unexplainable

»It is impossible to explain the origin of sin or to give a reason for its existence. It is an intruder, for whose presence no reason can be given. It is mysterious, unaccountable; to excuse it is to defend it. Could excuse be found for it, or cause be shown for its existence, it would cease to be sin.«

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.
