He did not fail nor become discouraged.

He lived above these difficulties,
as if in the light of God's countenance.

M: Why would you limit it to Jesus' life here on earth? Ellen White taught that we should study Jesus' example in both the OT and the NT. She wrote, "All that man needs to know and can know of God has been revealed in [1] His Word and in [2] the life of His Son, the great Teacher." {6BC 1079.9}

Act 18:28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.

Rom 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
Rom 1:2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
Rom 1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
Rom 1:4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

1Co 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Teresa, thank you for sharing. Yes, I knew Ellen White was arguing against panhteism. But, do you think the following insight refers to more than the mere fact God is physical Being? "All that man needs to know and can know of God has been revealed in [1] His Word and in [2] the life of His Son, the great Teacher." {6BC 1079.9}

i think ellen white added the extra two words in this instance to deal with the pantheism issue. if you wish to add it to her other statements in other contexts that is your perogative.
