What does EGW write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Ellen White: The Holy Spirit as God's Finger"
Answer
In the provided documents, the Holy Spirit is described as the source of the prophetic gift that manifested in the ministry of Ellen G. White. Her writings are regarded as a continual and authoritative source of truth that offers the church guidance and correction, while the Bible remains the standard at all times. By God's power, she was able, under the Spirit's influence, to give testimonies considered of divine origin to lead the church on its heavenly path.
The Prophetic Gift Through the Holy Spirit
One of the gifts of the Holy Spirit is prophecy. This gift is a distinguishing characteristic of the rest of the church and manifested in the ministry of Ellen G. White. As a messenger of the Lord, her writings are a continual and authoritative source of truth that provide the church with comfort, guidance, instruction, and correction. They also make clear that the Bible is the standard by which every doctrine and experience must be examined.
Divine Guidance and Protection of the Church
Hundreds of people saw Ellen White in visions, and many of them published reports about these moving occasions. They could say with Peter: 'We have not followed cleverly devised fables,' but have been 'eyewitnesses' of these things. What courage it gives us to know that God still loves His fighting church on earth and sends it messages of warning and instruction to guide it on its heavenly path!
The Spirit's Working in Inspiration
Ellen White essentially said: 'The exact wording of my testimonies is not given to me by God. Sometimes I receive images without any words. When writing, I must choose the words and expressions myself. The words are mine, not God's.' Because God did not dictate His messages word for word, she felt the need for assistance from other writers to express herself as best as possible.
