351: Ellen G. White found guilty of plagiarism (copying)
... They must now find room for adjustment in their thinking (and, for many, in their living) on a level different from that of the past. This could be very distressing. Whether or not the situation in which the church now finds itself fits our definition of a white lie, and whether or not the fib has been harmless to one's own personal values, way of thinking, and life experience, each person will have to judge for himself. To understand, in a small way, how people arrive at where they are is possible only if one looks at where they have been, what manner of salesmen sold them the trip, and what ... As you read, keep in mind that someone has sold you the idea that what you believe deep within yourself is "unique" and has authority from God, the highest court of appeal; that you are "different" because of this authority; and that you will be "saved" if you follow the rules. The problem with this line of thinking is that your truth may be only your saint's interpretation of truth, and the ... ...

They claim their teachings come by direct revelation knowledge from God and are not subject to human scrutiny. 6.

For the Christian a marriage commitment is to God as well as to the spouse, and should be entered into only between partners who share a common faith. Mutual love, honor, respect, and responsibility are the fabric of this relationship, which is to reflect the love, sanctity, closeness, and permanence of the relationship between Christ and His church. Regarding divorce, Jesus taught that the person who divorces a spouse, except for fornication, and marries another, commits adultery.
