What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "What fundamental beliefs and old landmarks did Seventh-day Adventists have in Ellen White’s time? Please find her exact statements and sources on the sanctuary in 1844, the three angels’ messages, the Sabbath, the commandments of God, the faith of Jesus, and the mortality of the wicked."
Answer
The quotations provided contain some direct statements by Ellen White about the sanctuary in 1844, the three angels’ messages, the Sabbath, and the commandments of God, but no explicit statements about the “faith of Jesus” or the “mortality of the wicked.” The 1872 “Fundamental Principles” (quote 1) are a later summary by the faith community, not written directly by Ellen White. Central elements such as the heavenly sanctuary (1844), the Sabbath as a testing truth in connection with the third angel’s message, and the Ten Commandments are affirmed in her early writings and visions.
Vision: Jesus enters the Most Holy Place in 1844
»The Lord showed me in vision that Jesus rose up, shut the door, and entered the Most Holy Place in the seventh month of 1844.«
The Sabbath and the third angel’s message as a testing truth
»In this revelation Sister White was carried down to the end of time and saw the Sabbath as the great testing truth by which people decide whether they will serve God or serve an apostate power.«
Acceptance of the Sabbath through Bible study and confirmation in vision
»In the autumn of 1846 we began to observe the biblical Sabbath and to teach and defend it. … The position previously taken on the basis of the Word of God was confirmed. The vision also helped to broaden the believers’ understanding of Sabbath observance.«
The third angel’s message and Sabbath truth after the disappointment of 1844
»Only a few among the Adventists retained their faith in the fulfillment of prophecy in 1844, but those who did moved forward into the third angel’s message with its seventh-day Sabbath.«
Establishing the points of faith through Bible study and vision
»We searched the Scriptures with much prayer, and the Holy Spirit brought the truth to our minds. … When the points of our faith were thus established, our feet were placed on a firm foundation. We accepted the truth point by point, under the demonstration of the Holy Spirit.«
The commandments of God seen in the heavenly sanctuary
»She saw the tables of the law in the ark in the heavenly sanctuary and a halo of light around the fourth commandment.«

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.
