Adventistische Schriften über: "What would Ellen White say about a Reuters social media post on extreme heat waves, so-called heat storms, and wildfires?"

Ellen White would interpret extreme heat waves and wildfires as fulfillment of prophetic warnings: She saw drought, "scorching heat" and "conflagrations" as signs that God uses the laws of nature as instruments of judgment because humanity refuses to repent. At the same time, she emphasized that angels are still holding back the four winds – the accumulating disasters are therefore an urgent wake-up call to prepare for Jesus' return, rather than seeking the causes only in climate change.

Drought and Heat as Divine Judgment (Prophets and Kings)

»The earth is parched as by fire. The scorching heat of the sun destroys what little remains of the sparse plant growth. Streams dry up … Once flourishing fields have become like burning desert sand, a desolate wilderness. … They did not recognize that He who created nature directs its laws and can make them instruments of blessing or destruction.«

Increasing Conflagrations and Storms as End-Time Signs (Calamities and God’s Love)

»The loss of human life is steadily increasing through storm, tempest, railroad disasters, conflagrations; the terrible floods, earthquakes and winds will stir the nations to a deadly conflict, while the angels are still holding back the four winds … Get ready, get ready, I implore you, get ready, before it is forever too late!«
