Ellen White on Who God Is

“God will not lightly esteem the transgression of His law. ‘The wages of sin is death.’ The consequences of disobedience prove that the nature of sin is at enmity with the well-being of God’s government and the good of His creatures. God is a jealous God, visiting the sins of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of them that hate Him. The results of transgression follow those who persist in wrongdoing; but He shows mercy unto thousands of them that love Him and keep His commandments. Those who repent and turn to His service find the favor of the Lord; and He forgiveth all their iniquities and healeth all their diseases.” Ellen White, Reflecting Christ, p. 52

“The desire of God for every human being is expressed in the words, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Ellen White, Medical Ministry, p.11

“The words spoken to Israel are true today of those who recover health of body or health of soul: ‘I am the Lord that healeth thee.’” Ellen White, Medical Ministry, p. 11

“Sickness, suffering, and death are work of an antagonistic power. Satan is the destroyer; God is the Restorer.” Ellen White, Medical Ministry, p. 11

“In every sense of the word, Christ was a medical missionary. He came to this world to preach the gospel and to heal the sick. He came as a healer of the bodies as well as the souls of human beings. His message was that obedience to the laws of the kingdom of God would bring men and women health and prosperity…” Ellen White, Review & Herald, July 23, 1914
