And what makes their view of her ANY different than a mormon claiming same for Joseph Smith?
Why does the SDA see Ellen White as a prophetess?

Because their whole program falls apart without her.

One of her most preposterous claim is that some (black African) races were product of beastiality. This was a common thought I the 18th century. Now some Adventists are questioning her 'inspiration' claims

The difference, if you accept SDA as Christian, is false doctrine among believers vs. a non-Christian religion. I do not know what SDA's believe regarding the gospel, but I do know Mormon's reject the gospel.

An organization that believes as you describe (replacing the gospel with upholding a doctrine) has no portion in the Church of Jesus Christ. I just have not studied SDA belief enough to expound. -
-
What I ask SDAs is, who subjected EGW to test and found her to be a prophet so much that they are made to swear that she had the gift of prophecy?
Most SDAs NEVER study Ellen White outside their sect literature so they remain blinded -
God changed???

If you want to know the truth about one of God's prophets - you have to read something other than the false charges that can be had against them.

And on a tablet this week, Bob, so my responses will be brief.
By the way, what ever happened to Heavenly Pilgrim?
God bless. -
Ellen White may not have been the first one to promote a given SDA doctrine (which is always the case as it turns out ) but at some point or another she had a vision that claimed that the doctrine was correct. So that is an easy place for a non-SDA to make a charge - just pick an SDA doctrine that you don't agree with and sooner or later there will also be some statement by Ellen White in favor of it - and usually claiming that an Angel or God Himself in the person of Jesus Christ happened to mention it to her.
That is the easiest.
As for a simple example of a prediction and vision that God alone could have given her -
this chapter has a lot of eye-witness statements on the 2nd coming events that will take place.

She also predicted in the 1800's that a healing of the wound between Catholicism and America's Protestantism would take place. This is important given the anti-catholic sentiment in America in the 1800's and early 1900's.

24 is about the Daniel 7 statement on the future Judgment, Romans 2:11-16 and Paul's Heb 8:1-6 statement telling is that the "main point" is that Christ is our High Priest in heaven. -
-
That a Christian can lose eternal life depending on how obedient they were to her teachings?
That the SDA is THE true remnant church God kept unto Hmlself?
That her teachings are on par qith the Apostles themselves?
Well? -

PS. I did not mean in this thread.
