What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Is there a Bible verse that goes something like: “You cross sea and land to win a single person for yourselves; yet that person becomes even more a child of evil than you yourselves are”?"
Answer
Yes. The passage you’re looking for is Matthew 23:15; the wording in your question closely matches what Jesus says there. The provided source renders it with the phrase “child of hell.”
Jesus on the scribes and Pharisees
»Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cross sea and land to win a single proselyte; and when he is won, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves.«

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.
