What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "The meaning of Isaiah 42:16"
Answer
Isaiah 42:16 describes God's promise to safely guide people who are in spiritual darkness or difficult circumstances and to give them light. This promise especially applies to those who sincerely seek God, as well as the \"servants of God\", whom He has chosen for a specific work. God promises to make the crooked straight and never abandon His children.
God's Guidance for His Chosen
»\"I will lead the blind on a path they do not know; I will guide them on roads they have not known. I will turn the darkness before them into light and make the crooked straight. I will do these things to them and will not abandon them.\" The work outlined in these passages is the work that lies before us. The terms \"My servant\", \"Israel\", \"the servant of the Lord\" denote anyone whom the Lord may choose and appoint to do a specific work. He makes them servants of His will.«
Comfort in Times of Disappointment and Darkness
»Although the night of mourning darkened around these followers of Jesus, they were not abandoned. The prophet says: \"When I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light... He will bring me into the light, and I will see His righteousness.\" God has spoken: \"Light shines for the upright in darkness.\" \"I will lead the blind on a path they do not know; I will guide them on roads they have not known. I will turn the darkness before them into light and make the crooked straight. I will do these things to them and will not abandon them.\«
Light for the Upright in All Nations
»God will not allow any soul to be disappointed who longs for something higher and nobler than the world can offer. All those \"upright\" in pagan nations will have light shine in the darkness. God has spoken: \"I will lead the blind on a path they do not know; I will guide them on roads they have not known: I will turn the darkness before them into light and make the crooked straight. I will do these things to them and will not abandon them.\«

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.
