What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "What would Ellen White think of the statement: "The papacy is for Satan what John the Baptist was for Jesus"?"
Answer
The provided documents contain no direct statement from Ellen White on the specific comparison that the papacy is for Satan what John the Baptist was for Jesus. While the texts do address resistance to the papacy as the prophetic Antichrist system and warn of satanic influences in false reformations, they do not make this explicit analogy.
Identifying the Papacy as Antichrist
»The Jesuits claim to be deeply offended and have taken my statements as insult and blasphemy, because I branded the papacy as the Antichrist, which Daniel, Paul, Peter, John, and even Christ prophesied. But this is as true as it is true that Jesus is the Messiah, and I am ready to demonstrate this even by their own definition of the word “Antichrist”.«
Warning of satanic deceptions and false reformations
»This vision is clearly a warning against spiritualism, a warning furthermore that “the mysterious signs and wonders and false reformations would increase and spread.” In other words, there was a great need for God's people to be increasingly vigilant in the days ahead of 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.
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.
