120 Victory Scriptures



      In harmony with the concept of “The Scriptures First” we will here set forth a partial list of Bible verses that to Ellen White spelled “victory.” It must be emphasized that this is only a sampling drawn from the five volumes in her well-known The Conflict of the Ages series. (Patriarchs and Prophets, Prophets and Kings, The Desire of Ages, The Acts of the Apostles, The Great Controversy.)
      These five volumes comprise only a fraction of the twenty-five million words that Ellen White wrote. To examine or compile the Bible texts that she employed in all of her writings would be an enormous undertaking, far beyond the abilities of the present writers.
When it is remembered that our sampling is restricted to a single subject, and that she used the scriptures lavishly in her treatment of all subjects, the extent of her familiarity with the Word of God is even more impressive. She literally lived with the scriptures.
      We are using the “Adventist Code,” as it is called, to identify by initials the book referred to and the page number, so that those who wish may refer to the source and study the application of the text. For those not familiar with the “Code,” PP = Patriarchs and Prophets; PK = Prophets and Kings; DA = The Desire of Ages: AA = The Acts of the Apostles; and GC = The Great Controversy.
