What does Ellen White write about...
Ellen Gould White über: "The Flat Earth Theory"
Answer
Ellen G. White comments in a letter critically about the Flat Earth theory. She reports that a brother Brown had adopted this theory and even preached it. She warns against engaging in such peripheral topics, and emphasizes that the congregation's task is to proclaim the message of the third angel, rather than indulging in speculative theories.
The available documents contain no further statements on the Flat Earth theory.
Warning about the Flat Earth Theory
»I learn through letters from New York that Brother Brown has adopted the flat world theory and is now preaching it. Is it possible that this theory was brought by Brother Wilcox from England and that you have adopted it and teach it? My brother, our task is to teach the message of the third angel. Stick to the message. It is a weakness of Elder Wilcox to take up hobbies and cling to certain things that he would be better off leaving alone.«
