What Did the Pioneers Think the Spirit of Prophecy Was?
Revelation 12:17 is the most solemn message from Jesus on how to find God's end-time church - how to know it from all others that claim to be God's church.
We note that the remnant people "keep the commandments of God and *have,* (present tense), the testimony of Jesus, which is the Spirit of Prophecy." Now we might be inclined to assume that the Seventh-day Adventist church must be the remnant church because we "have" the writings of Ellen White, the end-time prophet. But is that what Ellen White and the pioneers thought, or what the book of Revelation itself teaches?
