Very often there is at least one left-fringe group associated with any one given denomination. So not too surprising.

In the SDA church such a group often "leads with Ellen White" even though Seventh-day Adventists lead with the Bible.

The left fringe seems to prefer to appeal to those with no information at all about Ellen White's background or teaching so they can spin small-snip statements from Ellen White taken out of historic and immediate context to conjur up a false narrative that only those who actually read the material and knew the context would see through.

In any case - it is sometimes helpful to see how that sort of thing can easily be debunked. So for those who have the time - take a look at the list of 7 failed accusations in post #1 below and then see how they are so easily debunked.

Summary

Left Fringe – accusations against Ellen White - #1 (to see that list)

============================================
Exposing failed accusation #1 debunked in post: #56 #53
Exposing failed accusation #2 debunked in post: #3
Exposing failed accusation #3 debunked in post: #3
Exposing failed accusation #4 debunked in post: #3
Exposing failed accusation #5 debunked in post: #5 #55
Exposing failed accusation #6 debunked in post: #3 #16 #15
Exposing failed accusation #7 debunked in post:#3 #16 #15
Exposing failed accusation #8 debunked in post: #3 #40 – is same as accusation #5 but with more detail
Exposing failed accusation #9 debunked in post: #61 #58

========================================

As we all know -- that kind of discussion is not meant to convince someone that Ellen White is a prophet -- it is merely to see whether a given set of complaints is merely fluff-hay-straw-stubble or if they are substantive.

Since we don't base our doctrines on statements by Ellen White - we also do not lead with her statements on doctrine.

But we do affirm the Bible teaching on spiritual gifts in 1 Cor 12 and prophecy in 1 Cor 14:1-2

We need SDAs that reject the false accusations on this thread #1 (If that thread opens up again)

To vote "YES the responses to those false accusations do debunk the false accusations" on the POLL that is listed there - if you agree with my responses regarding those false accusations on that thread.

I posted to the thread but just as I went to reply to AH's reply to me denying he ever talked with me about SDA beliefs the thread was locked by a mod.

yeah , for some reason he was flame posting his own thread which meant it was on thin ice. I hope they can clean it up and re-open it -- but it might be too late for that. Save whatever info you can from it if you find it useful ... I don't know if it will all go away are simply be cleaned up and frozen.

Good thing your vote update got in however -- :)
