For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you,
and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
Col.2:16
plz notice what Paul says;
Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath.
17 These are a shadow of the things to come, but the substance belongs to Christ.
18 Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels,
going on in detail about visions,[d] puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind,
19 and not holding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body,
nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments,
grows with a growth that is from God.
Suzy;
It was at or in Laodicea,that Paul warns about the worship of Angels
and those that go on and on and on and on in great detail
about what thier """ANGEL""" told them
How many words did this Ellen write about all her """Visions ????
several Million did you say ???
and she goes on and on and on and on
Book upon Book and More books
going on in detail about visions,[
Maybe, could it be others have read and heeded the words of Paul
about such
Is. 55:1
Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters,
and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat;
yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread?
and your labour for that which satisfieth not?
hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good,
and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

Rev 3:7
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write
....... Because thou hast kept the word of my patience,
I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation,
which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
------------- Too the Laodiceans -------------
I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire,
that thou mayest be rich;
and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed,
and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear;
and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
Suzy;
Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread?
when you have been warned by Paul of such people
that would arise during the Church of the Laodiceans
........... I came to the Advent faith by way of my younger sister and her copy of The Great Controversy. I had absolutely no idea who EGW might be at the time, but as I spent one Memorial Day weekend reading her book, a certainty settled over me:
Col.2:1I DID proceed from the Biblical instruction that the gift of prophecy still exists for the CHURCH today and that this gift was/is present in the ministry of Ellen G. White.
For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you,
and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

It's such a shame that others make so difficult what the Lord in His mercy as made so simple. I think for me at that particular time of life my only prayer was that the Lord would reveal to me His truth, and according to His word He did:
Is. 55:1
Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters,
and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat;
yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread?
and your labour for that which satisfieth not?
hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good,
and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
