- Why do many people recommend reading the book “The Great Controversy”?
Ellen G. White's book The Great Controversy has been reprinted in many illustrations and languages. Many individuals who have read the book claim that it transformed their lives and led them to Jesus.
Draw courage as you read or recommend this book for Ellen G. White clearly outlines the principles in the impending conflict and how each of us may stand firm for God and His truth.
Watch as Cliff Goldstein, an American author, shares how God helped him find the truth through The Great Controversy and starts digging it up to learn the message and warning of God to His people. #Campmeeting
The Seventh-day Adventist Church has been an established denomination since 1863. It is a global Christian family with over 21 million members who hold the Bible as the ultimate authority. We are believers who promise to help people understand the Bible to find freedom, healing, and hope in Jesus.

I was converted to Seventh Day Adventist 7 years ago and I am longing to have the Book, THE GREAT CONTROVERSY. I am praying that i can get one to read it.🙏🙏
PM me and I will send you one
Praise God brother Clifford, the day after I wrote a comment here I posted in Women's Ministry to ask where I can get and buy the Book, THE GREAT CONTROVERSY. I prayed before I posted my message and it was an answered prayer and thanks God I received it yesterday before the vesper worship started. I received not only the book of THE GREAT CONTROVERSY but I received also the book THE DESIRE of AGES. The wife of our Pastor Julio Mendez sent it for me. God is good all the time. Greetings from..ISRAEL TEL-AVIV INTERNATIONAL ADVENTIST CHURCH (ITIAC)
This special book was given by Jesus to the SDA Church to give to everyone. It is available in PDF form at many locations on the internet.
Sorry to hear that. You should run. Run fast.
All BS
"I got into all sorts of silliness at one point"
You mean like the Great Controversy Theme/Paradigm? The irony.
In the 4th chapter of the book "Great Controversy" Ellen G. White spends the whole chapter praising Wycliffe as a hero of the Protestant Reformation while ignoring the fact that many of the people she addresses as saints, were devout Sunday worshipers and devout teachers of the doctrine of the immortality of the soul and everlasting in duration punishment in hell. . . *Wycliffe was no Adventist or Sabbath keeper or Sabbath preacher. Wycliffe would have rather cut his tongue out of his mouth than preach against Sunday keeping. *He did not believe in soul sleep, nor "Eternal punishment" is annihilationism', or scores of the other Adventist heresies* Wycliffe, confessed Sunday as the Lord's Day of worship of Christ* and would condemn Ellen G. White and the Adventist Church faster than the Pope for their heresies. Yet, Ellen G. White praises Wycliffe in order to justify her own heresies, EVEN HE DID NOT PROFESS and so does the Adventist Church. Because for both, the means justifies the end. They both make "strange bedfellows" Ellen G. White makes for herself and the Adventist Church. The same is true about Huss, Tyndale Martin Luther, Zwingle, Calvin and the litany of others EGW praises.
If the Adventist's and their like *were honest* , they would admit they have never kept ONE Sabbath according to the commandment which forbids, "ANY WORK" . What hypocrisy. It's all for show.
Okay...🙂. The book is very timely. I thank God for the writings in the book
The Sunday law is a phantom and so is the investigative judgement . Both are false teachings of EGW . No scripture to support either one .

Revelation 19:9-10
9 Then he said to me (John the Revelator), “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.” 10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the TESTIMONY of JESUS is the spirit of prophecy.”
@@polycarpsmith1419 during the dark ages, papal rome taught the people that salvation can be obtained by works (regular penitences, indulgences, confessions, communions, etc.). Since these beliefs were universal at that time, God intended that Bible TRUTHS must be revealed slowly and progressively through the workings of the Holy Spirit in order not to overwhelm the mind. The pattern of the early reformers' teachings was centered on righteousness by faith, salvation by God's grace. The appreciation of the 10 Commandments including the 7th-day Sabbath truth would understandably come in late after having been freed from the papal definition of salvation. If the lives of those reformers were extended, they would have followed the whole provisions of the moral law because of their utmost love to their creator and redeemer.
Revelation 14:6-7 6 Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth-to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people- 7 saying with a loud voice, “Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.”
And where else in the scriptures you can find the last line of verse 7 after a full understanding of God's hour of judgement? ANSWER: it's under the 4th Commandment - eveloped in the 7th-day Sabbath truth in Exodus 20:8-13!
AMEN TO THAT BRO CLIFFORD
Wow,Amen,THANKS BE TO GOD
Amen😇🙏
Amen and Amen!!!!
That man’s experience was really something to listen to! God wasn’t interested in playing games with him, He seriously stated: If I really want me in your life “burn your novel” & he was told to do this how many times in a row? Makes one think 🤔!
Amazing
Amen, praise God .
Thank you for sharing
We're glad to hear that you're joining us in praising God, Bon balab. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and for being a part of this community. May God continue to bless and guide you in your journey of faith.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amen. I like the GC idea this year
May the Lord bless you, Josiah.
In chapter 39 together with a brother who is a new believer. You can see his eyes widen and brighten whenever we strike "gold"! Praise be to God 🙏
I am not even there yet. I look forward to reading more
May the Lord bless you in your journey in this book, Wagichuru. We will be praying for you.
@@AdventistOrgChurch Thank you and blessings on you too. Let's meet at heavens welcome table!
Exactly. If you want to convert people to Adventism, get them the great controversy. But if you want them to know Jesus and become Christian, give them the Bible.
And please, don’t forget to mention that in that book EGW changed the historical facts, aka she lied.
why does the symbol with the flames have an upside down cross? isn't that satanic?
You are absolutely right. An upside-down cross IS Satanic. Yet, a right-side up Cross is Satanic as well - in any direction the cross is Satanic. It was a horrible punishment. The Devil invented it as an instrument of extreme torture. The cross IS Satan's murder weapon. Satan demonstrated to the whole universe that he was a MURDERER of his own Maker (Jesus is God the Creator, John 1:1-14, Rev. 14:6-7). The Cross is a statement that you agree and would do the same this to Jesus as the Pagans did.
My question is this: Why does Christianity have ANYTHING to do with this MURDER WEAPON. It causes me alarm when I see this symbol on people's necks, church buildings, and as a trinket to adore. REMEMBER: We love the CHRIST on the cross - NOT the CROSS that Christ was nailed on by wicked men. If my mother was shot in the face by a murderer, the very thought of wearing a replica gun around my neck would NEVER come to my mind. This is INSANITY.
Satan arranged the MURDER of Jesus through the ROMANS to discourage Jesus from entering Satan's Prison-house of Death - where Satan had planned to keep ALL HUMANITY locked-up in the earth-grave. Satan committed the first sin, and he tricked Adam & Eve to sin, and sin reaps death. Death is a gift from Satan. But Jesus was willing, through the most monstrous treatment, to jailbreak (legally), Satan's stronghold of DEATH on humanity, and GAIN A RESURRECTION for ALL humanity (Rev. 1:18). What a Savior, what a God we have in Heaven - Jesus is now THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE (but there are 2 resurrections - one to life, and the other to rejected life - John 5:28-29). It was Pagan Catholicism that began selling these trinkets as a bold-faced statement that they could destroy the Son of God. Nowadays this Satanic idiot who claims to be God-on-earth, proudly displays his shepherd stick with the dead Jesus crucified ON A ROMAN CROSS. Papal lunacy is merely a political child of the old defunct Roman Empire - a nasty religious child of old mother Babylon.
Anyone who displays my Loving Lord, Creator of Heaven and earth, on a stick as a public TROPHY is deranged. They should NOT be allowed to run around freely in public - they belong in an asylum until they are ready to look up, like Nebuchadnezzar, and receive a new-heart and a sound-mind from the Holy Spirit. He, in this area alone, is just about as far from Christianity as anyone can be. No wonder the Scriptures call him and his gang ANTI-CHRIST. Pray the Papacy will become Christian.
It's powerful book 100%
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Ralph Sio. We agree that the Great Controversy book is a powerful and inspiring work that sheds light on the great spiritual conflict between Christ and Satan, and provides important insights into the history of God's people and the role of the Church in the world today. May God continue to bless and guide you in your studies and in your walk of faith.
I am reading the Great Controversy now
Susan, we thank the Lord for your interest in and commitment to reading this book. We sincerely hope that you will establish a closer connection with God as you read this book.
@@AdventistOrgChurch I actually have. And the few other books that were sent to me.

@@polycarpsmith1419 I watch the movies, God's Outlaw (William Tyndale) Polycarp, Tell the World how the Seventh Day Adventist Church came about. And Jon Huss. They were speaking about the Roman Papacy not wanting Bibles in people's homes. That is courage to stand up to the Roman Papacy.
@@susanbarnhart7310
Adventism is the place where every saint is a heretic and every rebel and heretic is a Saint. Lucifer had the courage to stand up to God too huh? Lucifer had the courage to stand up to God too huh? The Sabbath keepers stood up to Christ and showed HIM, DIDN'T THEY? Korah and 249 others rebelled against Moses, what heros they should be in Adventism. Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses too, wow you would love them. They should be your hero's.
The Sabbath keepers showed "Courage" to stand up to St. Stephen, didn't they? i guess when they stoned St. Stephen, they showed how courageous they were.
The Sabbath keepers showed St. Paul who was boss too, when they beat him and left him for dead in the Synagogue on the *Sabbath day* too. Wow what courageous people you admire.
Yeah, God really admires those that rebel against authority.
Why don't you give out Catholic Bibles to read? Why do you ban Catholic bibles from your home and Churches?
You are no different than those you accuse.
It's better to get the Word of God (the Holy Bible) in your hands. Ellen White was still a sinner. Jesus Christ the God of TRUTH never sinned.
Paul was a sinner, but that doesn't mean that their written works cannot be inspired by God. Haven't you read the most basic info about Ellen White and prophecy that was predicted in the Bible? The Bible says that men and women shall receive dreams and visions.
Why should we read this Book? - Because EVERYBODY alive is involved. Revelation 14:6-7.
Steve: very true. We’re on the stage of this playing out. We can’t excape any of this fight period. We’ve gotta all stick together while we’re learning this info.
@@barbaradouglas2283 Beloved Barbara, Hold onto your hat, it's going to get windy
as soon as those four angels are told to let loose of the winds of heaven (Rev.7).
The ONLY reason this has not occurred yet, is the SEALING OF GOD 'S PEOPLE
is not quite finished:
Isaiah 8:16 BIND up the Testimony (of Jesus in the Forehead),
SEAL the Law (containing TEN Commandments) among My disciples.
As soon as this work is done, "the last events will be rapid ones",
and Jesus will come and RESCUE US, to take us back to His Father's House in Heaven
(John 14:1-3) YEA! -Big Brother Steve
This video is a waste of time, he doesn't describe the book at all.
