Charismatic Experiences in the Seventh-day Adventist Church; Present and Future

de George E. Rice

iata care era parerea lui Ellen White cu privire la vorbirea in limbi:

Ellen White says, "Let us give no place to strange exercisings, which really take the mind away from the deep movings of the Holy Spirit. God's work is ever characterized by calmness and dignity" (Selected Messages, vol. 2, p. 42).
"We must go to the people with the solid Word of God; and when they receive that Word, the Holy Spirit may come, but it always comes, as I have stated before, in a way that commends itself to the judgment of the people. In our speaking, our singing, and in all our spiritual exercises, we are to reveal that calmness and dignity and godly fear that actuates every true child of God" (Selected Messages, vol 2, p. 43).

Ellen White not only believes that it is possible, but states emphatically that Satan will introduce a counterfeit to the latter rain experience in an attempt to either prevent it from coming or bring about a failure to recognize and receive it when it does come. The following counsel will guard God's people from accepting a "charismatic" experience in the place of the genuine experience which will exist under the latter rain.

este cat se poate de clar ca Ellen White dezaproba miscarile carismatice care existau in timpul acela intr-o forma incipienta si dezaproba toate "exercitiile" menite sa slabeasca controlul mintii (cum fac penticostalii si carismaticii pt a ajunge la bolborosirea demonica)
