Ellen Gould White
What does Ellen White write about...
Ellen Gould White über: "Is wearing a cross necklace compatible with the Christian faith?"
Answer
The provided texts do not explicitly mention wearing a cross necklace or the significance of the cross as a symbol of faith; therefore, they do not give a definitive answer specifically on this issue. They teach in general that simple dress and abstaining from conspicuous jewelry and adornment of every kind are consistent with the faith. According to this general principle, a cross necklace would be jewelry, but the sources do not explain whether it is regarded differently because of its religious significance.
General Principle Regarding Jewelry
»Self-denial in dress is a part of our Christian duty. To dress plainly, and abstain from display of jewelry and ornaments of every kind, is in keeping with our faith.«

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.
