What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Hat Satan einen Thron?"
Answer
Yes, in the provided scriptures, Satan is attributed with a throne, which is, however, described as usurped and godless. Ellen White refers to a vast system of false religion as a monument to his endeavors to set himself on the throne to rule the earth according to his will. Jesus Christ found this throne erected where God's throne should have stood. Satan was not able to drive God from His throne, but he has planted his own throne between man and God.
