Not infrequently people base their understanding of the Ellen G. White teachings upon a fragment
of a sentence or upon an isolated statement removed from its setting. Writing
of certain ones who made such a misuse of her writings, she spoke of their "picking
out a sentence here and there, taking it from its proper connection, and applying
it according to their idea."--Selected Messages, book 1, p. 44.
Thought for the Day
Men of the highest education in the arts and sciences have learned precious lessons from Christians in humble life who were designated by the world as unlearned. But these obscure disciples had obtained an education in the highest of all schools. They had sat at the feet of Him who spoke as "never man spake." Desire of Ages, p. 251
