White Lie Soap

For removal of lingering stains on Ellen White's integrity as an inspired writer

by Kevin L. Morgan

Ellen G. White was a noted speaker and writer of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Her Christ-centered writings have comforted generations of Christians. Yet, her integrity as an inspired author has been impugned by accusations in the book The White Lie and its legacy on the Internet. Specially formulated to lift the lingering stains and leave a fresh appreciation of God's prophetic guidance in the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Author Kevin L. Morgan cleans up concerns about: ...

  • Ellen White's "copying" from sources for her books
  • Ellen White's denials and originality
  • Ellen White's literary errors, supposed and real
  • Supposed mistakes in The Great Controversy
  • Issues regarding Sketches from the Life of Paul

Contents:

  • Foreword: Evidences for Ellen White's divine inspiration
  • Introduction: Why White Lie Soap? - The source of the lingering stains and three steps in evaluating literary dependency
  • The Power of Sanctified Imagination - Mrs White wanted her readers to experience the life of Christ in their devotions
  • Telling Jesus' Story More Fully - Mrs White sought out the best language and employed helpers to communicate what God revealed to her
  • Only the First Step - Walter Rea's parallel exhibits focus on similarity
  • The Evidence of Eyewitness Detail - Ellen White's unique details demonstrate her “eyewitness" views of the scenes she described
  • Upgrading from Black and White To Color - Enhancement of Veltman's study shows marked degree ofindependence in Ellen White's compositions
  • Why The Term “Copying” Just Does Not Fit - Ellen White's interaction with literary sources reveals careful thought, not mindless copying
  • Affirming Ellen White’s Integrity - Inspiration means the message came from God, though the language employed may be adapted
  • Cleaning Up After “Friendly Fire” - Faulty assumptions lead to mistaken judgments; even scholars can make a mistake
  • It's The Message, Not ’the Means - Ellen White used sources in good conscience to conmunicate divine truth

“ I have read the entire manuscript. You have done a fine job.”
—Walter T. Rea, author of The White Lie
[Endorsement]
“ When many people lose confidence in Ellen G. White they also lose their Adventist faith and often their hold upon Christ. As a denomination, we have failed to correctly educate our people and have given them false concepts regarding her work. We need to have people who will defend her ministry.”
—Graeme Bradford, evangelist and Honorary Research Fellow Avondale College

“ Your book is by far the best thing I have read on the subject of Ellen White’s writing. You have dealt very persuasively and kindly with every imaginable question that an honest critic could have. I feel personally indebted to you for the enormous amount of time and energy you have spent in giving the world such a satisfying explanation of the false assertions that some have made relative to Ellen White’s ministry.”
—Robert W. Olson, retired director Ellen G. White Estate
