Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

10. Ellen White falsely predicted that old Jerusalem would never be rebuilt.


Answer: This prediction referred to a movement then underway (in 1850) to gather believers in the second advent to Jerusalem where a literal kingdom would be established in fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy prior to Christ's return. Ellen White's predictive warning saved many former Millerites from this deception.

Amen Brother Jensen! The message of Mrs. White is not dealing with the possibility of the Jews returning to Israel, but to ways we want to see that is some kind of last day event or fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

She did see a role for Jews, but that would be things such as the work of Abraham Joshua Heshel, or the artwork of Marc Chappel (sorry if I miss spelled his last name)which brings such insight and blesses the world.

And yes Jews can return to Israel, but that does not fulfill any prophecy.
