“In the experience of Seventh-day Adventists the visions were not given to take the place of Bible study. They were, however, a definite aid in Bible study, correcting erroneous interpretations and pointing to what was truth. ‘He [God] wants us to go to the Bible,’ she wrote in 1888, ‘and get the Scripture evidence.’—Manuscript 9, 1888.” (Page 146)
“Calculation of the time was so simple and plain that even the children could understand it.” (Page 49)
“Some took the matter a step further and taught that since they were perfectly sanctified, they could do whatever they wanted to without sinning. A few attended meetings in the nude, and a few exchanged wives. They thought it right to show their love for one another and that what they did was perfectly innocent.” (Page 82)
“Most of the Harmons were Congregationalists, but Robert, Ellen’s father, broke the tradition. He became a Methodist” (Page 18)
“The truth is designed to elevate the receiver, to refine his taste and sanctify his judgment.” (Page 466)
