The Published Ellen G. White Writings CCh - Counsels for the Church (1991) FOREWORD AS THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST MOVEMENT HAS GROWN IN ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD, MEMBERS WHO SPEAK AND READ THE VARIOUS LANGUAGES HAVE YEARNED FOR THE TESTIMONIES FOR THE CHURCH, WHICH, IN FULL OR IN PART, HAVE EDIFIED AND BLESSED THE CHURCH THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO PUBLISH IN EACH LANGUAGE THE FULL CONTENT OF THE NINE TESTIMONY VOLUMES AND THE MANY OTHER SPIRIT OF PROPHECY BOOKS. THERE IS PRESENTED IN THIS VOLUME, HOWEVER, A SELECTION OF GENERAL COUNSELS DRAWN FROM THESE SOURCES WHICH WILL PROVE OF GREAT SERVICE AND PRACTICAL HELP TO THE CHURCH. THE SELECTION OF MATERIALS, WHICH HAVE BEEN CONVENIENTLY GROUPED IN THE SIXTY-SIX CHAPTERS OF THIS VOLUME, IS THE WORK OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE ELLEN G. WHITE ESTATE, WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CARE OF MRS. WHITE‘S WRITINGS AT THE WORLD HEADQUARTERS OF THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH IN SILVER SPRING, MARYLAND, IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IT HAS BEEN A PAINSTAKING TASK TO GATHER, ARRANGE, TRANSLATE, AND PUBLISH IN THIS BOOK A COMPREHENSIVE SELECTION OF MATERIALS FROM THE MANY E. G. WHITE BOOKS. BECAUSE OF THE LIMITATION OF SPACE, ONLY THE MORE ESSENTIAL COUNSELS ON VITAL THEMES COULD BE INCLUDED. EVEN THIS PRESENTS A WIDE RANGE OF SUBJECTS. IN SOME CASES THE SELECTION IS CONFINED TO A FEW PARAGRAPHS AT A TIME TAKEN FROM SCATTERED SOURCES. REFERENCE TO THE BOOKS FROM WHICH THE SELECTIONS HAVE BEEN DRAWN ARE FOUND IN ABBREVIATED FORM AT THE CLOSE OF EACH CHAPTER. BY REFERENCE TO THE KEY TO ABBREVIATIONS YOU CAN EASILY FIND THE BOOKS TO WHICH THE LETTERS REFER. NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO INDICATE BY ELLIPSIS MARKS THAT PARAGRAPHS OR SENTENCES HAVE BEEN DELETED. DO NOT CONFUSE THE INTRODUCTION, WRITTEN BY THE TRUSTEES, WITH THE WRITINGS OF MRS. WHITE HERSELF, WHICH COMMENCE WITH CHAPTER 1. IT IS WITH SATISFACTION AND JOY THAT THIS BOOK IS NOW MADE AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO HAVE WAITED SO LONG FOR ITS APPEARANCE. THAT THE PRECIOUS COUNSEL AND INSTRUCTIONS THAT FILLS THESE PAGES MAY DEEPEN THE CONVICTION OF EACH READER IN THE TRUTHS OF THE ADVENT MESSAGE, BROADEN HIS CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE, AND HEIGHTEN HIS EXPECTATION OF VICTORY IN THE FINAL DAY WHEN OUR LORD SHALL RETURN, IS THE SINCERE PRAYER OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE ELLEN G.

White PREPARING TO MEET CHRIST ALL SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS LOOK FORWARD LONGINGLY TO THE TIME WHEN JESUS WILL COME TO TAKE THEM TO THE HEAVENLY HOME THAT HE HAS GONE TO PREPARE FOR THEM. IN THAT BETTER LAND THERE WILL BE NO MORE SIN, NO DISAPPOINTMENTS, NO HUNGER, NO POVERTY, NO SICKNESS, AND NO DEATH. WHEN THE APOSTLE JOHN CONTEMPLATED THE PRIVILEGES THAT AWAIT THE FAITHFUL, HE EXCLAIMED: ―BEHOLD, WHAT MANNER OF LOVE THE FATHER HATH BESTOWED UPON US, THAT WE SHOULD BE CALLED THE SONS OF GOD…. NOW ARE WE THE SONS OF GOD, AND IT DOTH NOT YET APPEAR WHAT WE SHALL BE: BUT WE KNOW THAT, WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM.‖ 1 JOHN 3:1,2. TO BE LIKE JESUS IN CHARACTER IS GOD‘S AIM FOR HIS PEOPLE. FROM THE BEGINNING IT WAS GOD‘S PLAN THAT MEMBERS OF THE HUMAN FAMILY, CREATED IN HIS IMAGE, SHOULD DEVELOP GOD-LIKE CHARACTERS. TO ACCOMPLISH THIS, OUR FIRST PARENTS IN EDEN WERE TO RECEIVE INSTRUCTION FROM CHRIST AND THE ANGELS IN FACE-TO-FACE CONVERSE. BUT AFTER ADAM AND EVE SINNED, THEY COULD NO LONGER FREELY SPEAK TO HEAVENLY BEINGS IN THIS MANNER. SO THAT THE HUMAN FAMILY MIGHT NOT BE LEFT WITHOUT GUIDANCE, GOD CHOSE OTHER WAYS TO REVEAL HIS WILL TO HIS PEOPLE, ONE OF WHICH WAS THE MEDIUM OF PROPHETS. TO ISRAEL, GOD EXPLAINED, ―IF THERE BE A PROPHET AMONG YOU, I THE LORD WILL MAKE MYSELF KNOWN UNTO HIM IN A VISION AND WILL SPEAK UNTO HIM IN A DREAM.‖ NUMBERS 12:6. IT IS GOD‘S PURPOSE THAT HIS PEOPLE SHALL BE INFORMED AND ENLIGHTENED, KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING NOT ONLY THE TIMES IN WHICH THEY LIVE BUT ALSO WHAT IS YET TO COME. ―SURELY THE LORD WILL DO NOTHING, BUT HE REVEALETH HIS SECRETS UNTO HIS SERVANTS THE PROPHETS.‖ AMOS 3:7. THIS CONTRASTS GOD‘S PEOPLE, ―THE CHILDREN OF LIGHT‖ 1 THESSALONIANS 5:5, WITH THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD. THE WORK OF THE PROPHET INCLUDES MUCH MORE THAN JUST MAKING PREDICTIONS. MOSES, A PROPHET OF GOD WHO WROTE SIX BOOKS OF THE BIBLE, WROTE VERY LITTLE ABOUT WHAT WAS TO COME IN THE FUTURE. HIS WORK IS DESCRIBED BY HOSEA IN ITS BROADER SENSE, ―BY A PROPHET THE LORD BROUGHT ISRAEL OUT OF EGYPT, AND BY A PROPHET WAS HE PRESERVED.‖ HOSEA 12:13. A PROPHET IS NOT ONE WHO IS APPOINTED BY HIS FELLOW MEN, NOR IS HE SELF-APPOINTED. THE CHOICE OF A PERSON TO BE A PROPHET IS ENTIRELY IN THE HANDS OF GOD. BOTH MEN AND WOMEN HAVE FROM TIME TO TIME BEEN CHOSEN BY GOD TO SPEAK FOR HIM. 10 THESE PROPHETS, THESE MEN AND WOMEN CHOSEN OF GOD AS CHANNELS OF COMMUNICATION, HAVE SPOKEN AND WRITTEN WHAT GOD HAS REVEALED TO THEM IN HOLY VISION. THE PRECIOUS WORD OF GOD COMPRISES THESE MESSAGES. THROUGH THESE PROPHETS MEMBERS OF THE HUMAN FAMILY HAVE BEEN LED TO AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONFLICT THAT GOES ON FOR THE SOULS OF MEN, THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CHRIST AND HIS ANGELS AND SATAN AND HIS ANGELS. WE ARE LED TO AN UNDERSTANDING OF THIS CONFLICT IN EARTH‘S CLOSING DAYS, AND OF THE MEANS PROVIDED BY GOD TO CARE FOR HIS WORK AND TO PERFECT THE CHARACTERS OF HIS PEOPLE. THE APOSTLES, THE LAST OF THE BIBLE WRITERS, GAVE US A CLEAR PICTURE OF THE EVENTS OF THE LAST DAYS. PAUL WROTE OF ―PERILOUS TIMES,‖ AND PETER WARNED OF SCOFFERS, WALKING AFTER THEIR OWN LUSTS, ASKING, ―WHERE IS THE PROMISE OF HIS COMING?‖ THE CHURCH AT THIS TIME WILL BE IN CONFLICT, FOR JOHN SAW SATAN AS HE ―WENT TO MAKE WAR WITH THE REMNANT.‖ THE APOSTLE JOHN IDENTIFIES THE MEMBERS OF THE LAST-DAY CHURCH, ―THE REMNANT CHURCH,‖ AS THOSE ―WHICH KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD‖ REVELATION 12:17, THUS MAKING THEM A COMMANDMENT-KEEPING CHURCH. THIS REMNANT CHURCH WOULD ALSO HAVE ―THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS,‖ WHICH IS ―THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.‖ REVELATION 19:10. PAUL STATES THAT THE CHURCH THAT IS EXPECTANTLY WAITING FOR THE COMING OF CHRIST WOULD COME BEHIND IN NO GIFT. 1 CORINTHIANS 1:7,8. IT WOULD BE BLESSED WITH THE GIFT OF THE TESTIMONY OF CHRIST. IT IS CLEAR, THEN, THAT IN GOD‘S PLAN THE CHURCH OF THE LAST DAYS WOULD, WHEN IT CAME INTO BEING, HAVE IN ITS MIDST THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. HOW REASONABLE IT IS THAT GOD SHOULD SPEAK TO HIS PEOPLE IN EARTH‘S LAST DAYS JUST AS HE SPOKE TO HIS PEOPLE IN TIME OF SPECIAL NEED IN CENTURIES PAST.

  • Should We Observe the Feast Days? (A Short and Limited Study by G
    1 Should We Observe the Feast Days? (A short and limited study by G. Edward Reid) When the Seventh-day Adventist Church was in its early years’ Sabbath Keeping was quite unique among Christians. Apparently, there were some folks who felt that since we had “rediscovered” the Sabbath, we should also look into whether or not we should also celebrate the Feast Days contained in the Law of Moses or Ceremonial Law. Ellen White was led to write four full articles for the Review and Herald on the topic of “The Lord’s Supper and the Ordinance of Feet-Washing.” They were printed in the RH on four successive weeks May 31 through June 21, 1898. For the value and benefit of context, I have copied all four articles below, placed in bold type, and underlined relevant statements in each article. “May 31, 1898 The Lord's Supper and the Ordinance of Feet-Washing.--No. 1. - Mrs. E. G. White. - "Then came the day of unleavened bread; when the Passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, where wilt thou that we prepare? And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the good man of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the Passover with my disciples? And he shall show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

  • The Old Year The
    GENERAL CHURCH PAPER OF THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS Vol. 108 Takoma Park, Washington, D. C., December 31, 1931 No. 53 I can sing of temptations and failures That I sometimes have had by the way, The Can sing how the blessed Redeemer Has lifted my feet from the clay. And the New Year shall tell of the triumphs That Jesus can give every hour; Old Year Yes, the New Year shall tell what the Old Year Can never again have the power. We can sing of some hands that are vanished and And the voices of loved ones now still, Whose music our hearts once enraptured, And lives with their sunshine did fill. Yes, the Old Year has given and taken, the New Its dreams are all gone with their lure; Let us turn now and face the bright New Year With hearts set to dare and endure. Let's forever, then, leave the dead ashes, For the fire of the Old Year's burnt out With pictures which glowed for a moment, By Mary Valliant Nowlin As breath of time stirred them about; They are now left all scattered and lifeless, And cold on the hearthstone of night. For the day of the Old Year is ended, Forever has passed out of sight. But the New Year, with leaves all unfolded, Is ours to write on what we will, WILL sing you a song of the Old Year, Of deeds that shall tell for the Master, Of the New Year I cannot now sing; The unwritten pages to fill.

Spotify: Is Spotify the Problem or a Symptom of the Problem? Abstract Today, streaming is the prevailing mode of music consumption. Yet, streaming services are struggling to turn a profit, as songwriters also face significant financial challenges in the streaming era. All the while, record labels are collecting the majority of streaming revenue and seeing record profits. The 2018 Music Modernization Act attempted to address songwriters’ and streaming services’ financial problems by altering the factors considered by the Copyright Royalty Board in determining the mechanical royalty rates owed by streaming platforms to songwriters. A proper application of this newly instated factor test necessitates considering both songwriters’ and streaming services’ business operations and finances. However, during the 2018–2022 mechanical rate determinations, the majority court largely disregarded the financial interests of streaming services in determining the new mechanical rate.
