What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Should one preach about opportunities and not about consequences in the sense of evangelism and mission?"
Answer
The writings of Ellen White emphasize that we should take every favorable opportunity to spread the gospel – with zeal, perseverance, and wise use of the opportunities God gives us. At the same time, it is warned that neglecting these efforts not only remains fruitless but ultimately leads to condemnation; therefore, preaching must be both opportunity-oriented and consciously aware of eternal consequences.
Seizing opportunities and considering the consequences
»It should be sown beside all waters. More zeal and perseverance should be shown in fully exploiting the favorable opportunities. The opportunities should be seized and the rays of the light of present truth carefully, yet earnestly, pressed upon them.... If these efforts do not save, they will condemn.«

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.
