What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "What does Ellen White write about the faith of Jesus?"
Answer
In Ellen White's writings the "faith of Jesus" is described as a central element of the end‑time message, inseparably linked to keeping God's commandments. Believers are admonished not to hide this banner of truth out of fear of unpopularity, for it is the hallmark of those who remain faithful in the great conflict of the last days. Christ is also presented as the author and perfecter of our faith, whose example in humility and meekness forms the basis for the Christian character.
The Banner of God's Commandments and the Faith of Jesus
»Both of them held up the banner on which was written: “God’s commandments and the faith of Jesus”; but when they met people on their way who considered them popular, the banner was lowered, and they tucked it behind their backs and said: “If we announce that we are Seventh‑Day Adventists, then our influence will be at an end, and we will lose many advantages.” I saw the banner of truth being drawn behind them. Then the question arose: “Why wear it at all? We can believe what we recognize as truth, but we must not let the educators and students know that we carry this unpopular banner.”«
Christ as the Author and Perfecter of Our Faith
»As we look to Jesus, not only as our example but as the author and perfecter of our faith, let us go forward, confident that He will give power for every duty.«
The Patience of the Saints in the End‑time
»Of the loyal and faithful who do not bow the decrees of earthly rulers to the authority of the King of Heaven, the revealer says: “Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep God’s commandments and the faith of Jesus.” These lessons are for our benefit. We must base our faith on God, for immediately before us lies a time that will test every soul.«
The Mission to Proclaim the Third Angel’s Message
»Proclaim the third angel’s message so that it may be heard throughout the world. Let it become visible that “here are those who keep God’s commandments and the faith of Jesus.” Let our literature proclaim the message as a testimony to the whole world.«
The Victory of God’s People
»Finally the victory was won. The army that followed the banner bearing the inscription “God’s commandments and the faith of Jesus” was gloriously triumphant. Christ’s soldiers were close to the city gates, and the city received its king with joy. The kingdom of peace, joy and everlasting righteousness was established.«
