Topic: Science Versus Ellen White
Bible Test #2 - A Prophet's Writings Cannot Contain Falsehoods
"Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.." Jer. 23:32
When a prophet's writings contradict established and observable scientific truths, it raises a critical red flag. Teachings that deny fundamental realities of science are indicators of falsehood. Therefore, demonstrable scientific inaccuracies within Ellen White's writings refute her claim to speak for God. A true prophet's words must align with all truth, which God reveals through both Scripture and creation (Rom. 1:20).
"In true science there can be nothing contrary to the teaching of the word of God, for both have the same Author. A correct understanding of both will always prove them to be in harmony. Truth, whether in nature or in revelation, is harmonious with itself in all its manifestations." (Ellen White, Testimonies, vol. 8, 258)
