There has been a rash of anti Ellen White threads on AO forums. I have to say that by searching the Bible and comparing her writings I have never found anything that disagrees with the word of God. My relationship has been brought closer to God and my understanding of the Bible has grown. I cannot say the same for any other writer who has written a book about the Bible.

I have never seen anything that disagrees with the word of God also.
While God has given ample evidence for faith, He will never remove all excuse for unbelief. All who look for hooks to hang their doubts upon will find them. And those who refuse to accept and obey God’s word until every objection has been removed, and there is no longer an opportunity for doubt, will never come to the light....{DD 11.3}
Jason, your article says that
“Ellen White magnifies, explains, amplifies simplifies and highlights the great truths of Scripture but does not add any new truth!!”
This is taken from the book Advertise Believes. Here she speaks and says this:
The judgment in which the righteous participate serves the purpose of answering any questions the righteous may have as to why the wicked are lost. God wants those to whom He has given eternal life to have full confidence in His leadership, so He will reveal to them the operations of His mercy and justice.
Is this biblical or is it made up? If this is biblical, and it is being explained we should see this in the scriptures. If it’s not biblical we will not see it in the scriptures, and we will only have this word (her word) to cling to on this particular matter.
For me, there’s a lot here which seems to waver from the bible; for example, she says.
…God wants those to whom He has given eternal life to have full confidence in His leadership, so He will reveal to them the operations of His mercy and justice.
Yet the bible says, Revelation 17:14
…and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Faithful means to have confidence in. God is not out to win a popular contest, but to save the world.
What should one conclude from this?
James if you don't find anything, you are suffering from confirmatory bias and are giving credence to the idea that Ellen White was incapable of error. Additionally, you may not be using your critical thinking skills, and instead are looking to find correlations with her words and the bible (illusionary correlation,) instead of recognizing discrepancies.

With those letter after your name you think that you would be educated enough to not promote pork eating. The only one promoting error or who has bias it seems is an angry person with a bone to pick.

I am trying to promote the truth.

Suffering from Bias? Critical thinking? Sinless? Where do you get this Drivel from? EGW was born in sinful flesh just like you and me. Her sins has not been widely documented I know. Have yours? But I note you have posted many discussions here where you have plastered every real and imagined fault you could ever dig up on EGW bashsites.
One wonders what kind of Christian you are anyway? And what kind of SDA with your Pork eating gospel. You love to tell us that we are retarded because we do not admit that she was a sinner and had some faults. The more rubbish we see from you the more convinced we become that you are not an adventist and you are most likely a Jesuit sent here to sow Dissent and Doubt and in general scattering the flock.
The very last deception of Satan will be to make of none effect the testimony of the Spirit of God. “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18). Satan will work ingeniously, in different ways and through different agencies, to unsettle the confidence of God’s remnant people in the true testimony. He will bring in spurious visions to mislead, and will mingle the false with the true, and so disgust people that they will regard everything that bears the name of visions as a species of fanaticism; but honest souls, by contrasting false and true, will be enabled to distinguish between them.{10MR 311.1}

Are you able to make a statement using only scripture? Do you have the desire to read the bible unadulterated with the guidance of the Holy Spirit? Or are you so beholden to the collective and altered work of Ellen White that you have ceased to think on your own? God has given you the ability to commune with him through the Holy Spirit. Have faith and take on the guidance that the Holy Spirit can give you.

You now tell me what I must do I have the same rights as you if you do not like SOP is a mater for you. As you can see below Keith is saying that the SOP will become of no effect seems to me that you and Keith are doing that now.
Besides When the Spirit tells you to eat Bacon to me that would not be the Holy Spirit.
Lazarus,
You are using the " testimony of the Spirit of God," interchangeably with the " spirit of prophecy, testimonies to the church, Writings of Ellen White. "
And what is the big hang up over bacon?
Remember the Spirit of prophecy is just a name given to the writings of Ellen White. Like Early writings, or Steps to Christ. They used to be called Spiritual gifts, which was a better name.
