Lifting the sentence from
Testimonies for the Church,
vol. 2, p. 400, which reads, "Eggs should not be placed upon your table,"
from the context of the paragraph and the setting of the chapter has led some
to a distorted concept of Ellen G. White's position, set forth clearly in
The
Ministry of Healing, page 320,
Testimonies for the Church, vol. 7,
p. 135, and vol. 9, p. 162, where she recognized the rightful place of eggs
in the ordinary dietary program.
Thought for the Day
The Saviour is still carrying forward the same work as when He proffered the water of life to the woman of Samaria. Those who call themselves His followers may despise and shun the outcast ones; but no circumstance of birth or nationality, no condition of life, can turn away His love from the children of men. To every soul, however sinful, Jesus says, If thou hadst asked of Me, I would have given thee living water. Desire of Ages, p. 194
