What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "The human being cannot say in judgment: 'Jesus, you did not bear my guilt at all, therefore I could not have received forgiveness from you.'"
Answer
The human being cannot claim in judgment that Jesus did not bear his guilt, because according to Ellen G. White, Christ, as our substitute and surety, bears our guilt, takes our punishment upon Himself, and thereby forgiveness is granted to us. Whoever refuses to see his guilt borne by Christ denies the foundation of justification by faith and therefore cannot be acquitted by God.
Christ bears our guilt as our substitute and surety
»The sinner receives forgiveness of his sins, because these sins are borne by his substitute and surety. The Lord says to His heavenly Father: 'This is My child; I deliver him from the sentence of death by giving him My life insurance—eternal life—for I have taken his place and suffered for his sins.' ... The right to forgive our transgressions and sins belongs to the Father, because Christ has taken our guilt upon Himself and has freed us by imputing to us His own righteousness.«

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.
