Ellen Gould White , née Harmon, est une chrétienne américaine dont le ministère contribua à fonder, avec Joseph Bates et James White , l'Église adventiste du septième jour. Principale inspiratrice du mouvement, elle fut une guide spirituelle, une revivaliste, une prédicatrice, une missionnaire et une réformatrice militant pour la vie familiale, l'éducation, la santé et une hygiène de vie holistique. Mais elle n'occupa jamais aucune position de direction dans l'Église adventiste.

Au cours de ses 70 ans de ministère, Ellen White écrivit 26 livres et plus de 5 000 articles pour divers périodiques. Jusqu'à aujourd'hui, plus de 130 titres ont été publiés , incluant de nombreuses compilations de ses 55 000 pages de manuscrits. Son œuvre fut essentiellement consacrée à la spiritualité chrétienne, centrée principalement sur le second avènement du Christ. Elle écrivit sur des sujets touchant à la vie pratique chrétienne, l'évangélisation, l'éducation et la santé.

Son œuvre et son engagement contribuèrent à l'organisation et à l'expansion mondiale de l'Église adventiste, à l'établissement de nombreux modes de diffusion du message du retour du Christ, et à la création d'un important réseau d'établissements scolaires, universitaires et médicaux dans le monde entier. Les adventistes attribuent une dimension prophétique à son ministère, estimant qu'elle eut environ 2 000 visions. Fidèle à l'esprit du protestantisme, Ellen White appela toujours ses lecteurs et ses auditeurs à enraciner leur foi sur le seul témoignage de la Bible. Wikipedia

Ellen White: Citations en anglais

“Early in my public labors I was bidden by the Lord, "Write, write the things that are revealed to you." At the time this message came to me, I could not hold my hand steady. My physical condition made it impossible for me to write. But again came the word, "Write the things that are revealed to you." I obeyed; and as the result it was not long before I could write page after page with comparative ease. Who told me what to write? Who steadied my right hand, and made it possible for me to use a pen?”

Steps to Christ, p. 49

“Let none think that there is no more knowledge for them to gain. The depth of human intellect may be measured; the works of human authors may be mastered; but the highest, deepest, broadest flight of the imagination cannot find out God. There is infinity beyond all that we can comprehend. We have seen only the glimmering of divine glory and of the infinitude of knowledge and wisdom; we have, as it were, been working on the surface of the mine, when rich golden ore is beneath the surface, to reward the one who will dig for it.”

“The life of the Christian is not all smooth. He has stern conflicts to meet. Severe temptations assail him. ‘The flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh.’ The nearer we come to the close of this earth’s history, the more delusive and ensnaring will be the attacks of the enemy. His attacks will grow fiercer and more frequent. Those who resist light and truth will become more hardened and unimpressible, and more bitter against those who love God and keep His commandments (MS 33, 1911).”

Conflict of the Ages series

“The Sovereign of the universe was not alone in His work of beneficence. He had an associate—a co-worker who could appreciate His purposes, and could share His joy in giving happiness to created beings. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.” John 1:1, 2. Christ, the Word, the only begotten of God, was one with the eternal Father—one in nature, in character, in purpose—the only being that could enter into all the counsels and purposes of God. “His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6. His “goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” Micah 5:2. And the Son of God declares concerning Himself: “The Lord possessed Me in the beginning of His way, before His works of old. I was set up from everlasting. … When He appointed the foundations of the earth: then I was by Him, as one brought up with Him: and I was daily His delight, rejoicing always before Him.””

Testimonies for the Church (1855 - 1868)

“There are many whose religion consists in criticising habits of dress and manners. They want to bring every one to their own measure. They desire to lengthen out those who seem too short for their standard, and to cut down others who seem too long. They have lost the love of God out of their hearts; but they think they have a spirit of discernment. They think it is their prerogative to criticise, and pronounce judgment; but they should repent of their error, and turn away from their sins… Let us love one another. Let us have harmony and union throughout our ranks. Let us have our hearts sanctified to God. Let us look upon the light that abides for us in Jesus. Let us remember how forbearing and patient He was with the erring children of men. We should be in a wretched state if the God of heaven were like one of us, and treated us as we are inclined to treat one another.”
