Brothers and sisters,
I’ve been prayerfully restudying the 1888 era lately, and I’m left with some honest questions I’d love to hear your thoughts on. Ellen White wrote some very strong statements about what happened in Minneapolis and afterward:
“The time of test is just upon us, for the loud cry of the third angel has already begun in the revelation of the righteousness of Christ, the sin-pardoning Redeemer. This is the beginning of the light of the angel whose glory shall fill the whole earth.” (1888 Materials, p. 1073)
“An unwillingness to yield up preconceived opinions, and to accept this truth, lay at the foundation of a large share of the opposition manifested at Minneapolis against the Lord’s message through Brethren Waggoner and Jones… By exciting that opposition Satan succeeded in shutting away from our people, in a great measure, the special power of the Holy Spirit that God longed to impart to them.” (1888 Materials, p. 1575)
No one will answer me or they say this is not important. I have been praying and I can't let this go. Please, could someone help me understand why Ellen G White said this?
