Jon Pauliens Blog - Sáb 08 Mai 2021 19:33:29 EDT - 4There have been and are many who wish Jesus had never been born.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Qui 25 Mar 2021 19:33:38 EDT - 18Text Never again will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his years; he who dies at a hundred will be thought a mere youth; he who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 21 Mar 2021 19:34:26 EDT - 8This is a work in progress. I can’t say I’ve thought it through enough yet, but I’d like to get feedback and I think it is potentially very important, so let me share what I am thinking. The fundamental foundation of geopo...Ellen White and the Time of the Seventh Trumpet (EWB 20)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 07 Mar 2021 01:33:22 EST - 35Ellen White’s perspective on the seventh trumpet is problematic for exegesis at first glance. In EW 36 she alludes to Rev 11:18 as follows: “I saw that the anger of the nations, the wrath of God, and the time to judge the dead w...Ellen White and the Beast from the Abyss (EWB 19)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Sáb 27 Fev 2021 19:32:36 EST - 528In The Great Controversy, pages 265 288 Ellen White identifies the power which opposed the two witnesses as revolutionary France.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Sáb 20 Fev 2021 19:33:24 EST - 225The reality is that, in spite of Ellen White’s overwhelming interest in the end time concept of the sealing, in places she is quite capable of using the concept of sealing more along the lines of Paul than of Revelation 7. In CT 459 t...Ellen White and the Sealing of Revelation 9:4 (EWB 17)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 14 Fev 2021 19:33:45 EST - 273A major issue in the Adventist interpretation of the seven trumpets is the significance of the sealing in Revelation 9:4. Is it the end time sealing of Revelation 7? Or is the more general sealing process typical of the rest of the New Test...Ellen White and the Introduction to the Trumpets (EWB 16)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Seg 08 Fev 2021 19:33:32 EST - 15In the vision of Revelation 8:3 4 an angel stands before the golden altar, ministering incense before God. In many statements Ellen White appears to equate that angel with Christ. EW 32 (= LS 100), 252; MS 142, 1899 (= COL 156 = 7 BC 931); ...Ellen White and the Trumpets II (EWB 15)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Qui 04 Fev 2021 01:30:30 EST - 6For those who may feel that my position on the statement in GC 334 335 undermines the authority of Ellen White, I strongly encourage you to read the Appendices to Selected Messages, volume 3, pages 433 450. See also the Introduction to The ...Ellen White and the Trumpets (EWB 14)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 31 Jan 2021 03:30:28 EST - 2When it comes to the trumpets, unfortunately, Ellen White has very little to say. Only two statements are generally understood to offer meaningful comment on Revelation 8:7 through 9:21; they are found in Letter 109, 1890 and GC 334 335. On...Ellen White and Revelation 6 (EWB 13)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 24 Jan 2021 09:30:28 EST - 39There is a paucity of statements by Ellen White associated with the seals of Revelation 6.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Sáb 16 Jan 2021 19:33:41 EST - 58One of the most challenging concepts in Revelation is the sealed scroll of chapter five.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Seg 11 Jan 2021 19:33:34 EST - 23While Desire of Ages, pp. 833 835 ties the entire scene of Revelation 4 5 to the event of Christ’s ascension and his subsequent enthronement in the heavenly sanctuary, some Adventist thinkers believe that a statement found in 7BC 967 ...Ellen White and the Timing of Revelation 5—Part 2 (EWB 10)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 03 Jan 2021 01:32:19 EST - 17The soundest way to determine the reason for Ellen White’s emphasis on the importance of Revelation 5 for those who live in the last days is to read all her statements regarding that chapter. When this procedure is followed, the reade...Ellen White and the Timing of Revelation 5 (EWB 9)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Sex 01 Jan 2021 01:32:48 EST - 8There is only one statement that I am aware of in all of Ellen White’s writings that imputes unusual importance to any part of Rev 4 6 and 8 9. That statement is found in 9T 266 267. “Those who humble their hearts and confess th...Ellen White and the First Half of the Book of Revelation (EWB 8)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Ter 29 Dez 2020 01:32:35 EST - 8The closest thing to a major interpretive statement for the entire first half of the book of Revelation is found in the book The Great Controversy, pages 414 415. This statement is also found in Patriarchs and Prophets, 356. Both statements...The Principles Illustrated by Ellen White’s Use of Rev 8:5– II (EWB 7)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Sex 25 Dez 2020 01:33:26 EST - 23Of great interest to the issue of Ellen White’s use of the Bible is the fact that the statement in this statement in Early Writings, 279 280 (see previous blog) is repeated (nearly in its entirety) in The Great Controversy, 613.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Seg 21 Dez 2020 03:30:54 EST - 7To illustrate the use of these six principles for Ellen White’s use of Scripture, it may be helpful to examine the statement in Early Writings, 279 280: “An angel with a writer’s inkhorn by his side returned from the earth...Different Ways That Ellen White Used the Bible II (EWB 5)
Jon Pauliens Blog - Sex 18 Dez 2020 01:31:01 EST - 8In the previous blog we looked at two different ways that Ellen White uses Scripture as part of her argument.

Jon Pauliens Blog - Dom 06 Dez 2020 01:30:56 EST - 6Adventist interpreters of Revelation share a deep appreciation of the writings of Ellen G. White.
