Ellen G. White had a distinctive writing style and her outlook and faith gave us perhaps one of the most under-rated religious writers of the 19th Century. In this book, White takes the reader on a historical tour of the men who dared to challenge the Roman Catholic Church and even martyr themselves in their desperate attempts to reveal the truth. Mrs. White was and still is, completely misunderstood - and the fact that many Seventh Day Adventists call her a prophet doesn't help her reputation. She in fact, never claimed she was a prophet and in my opinion, this shines through in the way she has written the book. What she had was a God-given gift to write richly detailed works that urge the reader ever forward towards the end of her book.
The first 2/3 rds of the book deal with history, and the final third looks at where we are going. (to be continued... please no comments until this draft is finalised.) |
