What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Prüfe Originalzitate von Ellen G. White über das lammähnliche Tier in Offenbarung 13, religiöse Freiheit, Kirche und Staat, Zwang und Trost durch Christus. Schreibe eine hoffnungsvolle Botschaft, ohne aktuelle politische Behauptungen unbestätigt zu behaupten."
Answer
The provided Ellen G. White quotes address religious freedom, the relationship between church and state, and coercion related to Sunday enforcement, as well as comfort and victory through Christ the Lamb. None of the quotes explicitly mention the "lamb-like beast" from Revelation 13 together with all these points in a single passage. "The Great Controversy" connects state-church coercion, the beast's mark, and the victory of believers through the Lamb. The hopeful message is: remain rooted in Christ, trust His Word, and do not be intimidated—the victory belongs to the One who suffered for us.
Church, State, and Victory Over the Beast (The Great Controversy)
»In the final decision, all Christendom divides into two great classes: those who keep God's commandments and the faith of Jesus, and those who worship the beast and its image and receive its mark. Although church and state unite their power to force "all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and servant" to receive the beast's mark, the people of God will not receive it. The prophet of Patmos sees "those who have won victory over the beast and its image and its mark and the number of its name" standing on the sea of glass, having the harps of God and singing the song of Moses and the Lamb.«
Religious Freedom and Obedience to God (Christian Service)
»Many, even among those who support Sunday enforcement, are blinded to the consequences of this action. They do not see that they are striking directly against religious freedom. ... We are to recognize human government as an institution of divine appointment and teach obedience to it as a holy duty within its legitimate sphere. But when its demands conflict with God's demands, we must obey God rather than men. God's Word must be honored above all human legislation. "Thus saith the Lord" must not be set aside for "Thus saith the church" or "Thus saith the state." The crown of Christ is to be exalted above the diadems of earthly potentates. ... It is our duty, as we see the signs of impending danger, to call to action. ... Earnest, effective prayer should rise to heaven that this calamity may be postponed until we can accomplish the work long neglected.«
Comfort Through the Lamb of God (Bible Echo and Signs of the Times)
»Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world." I repeat the words of John: "Behold the Lamb of God." We are to contemplate Christ's character. We are to meditate on the cross of Golgotha; for it is the unanswerable argument of Christianity. ... The sinner sees Jesus as He is, full of compassion and tender love; and by looking upon the revelation of His great love in His sufferings on Golgotha, the character is transformed. ... Human will must not be forced into collaboration with divine powers, but must willingly submit.«
