Ellen Gould White
What does Ellen White write about...
Ellen Gould White über: "Where does Ellen White describe that after the last plagues people recognize their deception, kill their spiritual leaders, and kill themselves (analogous to Ezekiel 9)?"
Answer
Ellen White describes that after the end of the grace period, people attack their spiritual leaders with bitter hatred, because they have deceived them about the seriousness of the situation and the second coming of Christ. In the ensuing chaos and under the burden of the plagues, the ungodly turn their anger against each other, leading to a worldwide bloodbath in which both religious leaders and the people perish. This process of destruction explicitly begins with those who claimed to be the spiritual guardians of the people, analogous to the vision in Ezekiel 9.
The Despair of the Deceived and the Hatred of the Preachers
»The people turned with bitter hatred against their preachers and accused them: “You did not warn us. You told us that the whole world would be converted, and you called ‘Peace, peace’ to soothe every fear that arose. You told us nothing about this hour; and those who warned us you labeled as fanatics and evil people who would ruin us.” But I saw that the preachers did not escape the wrath of God. Their suffering was ten times greater than that of their people.«
The Fighting Among Themselves and the Parallel to Ezekiel
»The work of destruction begins with those who claimed to be the spiritual guardians of the people. The false guardians fall first. No one has compassion or spares them. Men, women, virgins, and small children perish together. [...] In the insane struggle of their own fierce passions and through the terrible outpouring of God's unmixed wrath, the ungodly inhabitants of the earth – priests, rulers, and people, rich and poor, high and low – fall. “And the slain of the Lord shall lie that day from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth.”«
Mutual Destruction After the Liberation of the Saints
»After the saints had been liberated by the voice of God, the ungodly crowd turned its anger against one another. The earth seemed flooded with blood, and corpses lay from one end to the other. The earth appeared as a desolate wilderness.«
