WAA Podcast Episode 44: Trust Me, I'm a Prophet! (59:24)

Welcome to another podcast episode of "What's an Adventist?"

If someone walked into your church claiming to be a messenger from God, how would you know if you could believe their claims? 
Early in their history Adventists had to grapple with that dilemma when a young girl by the name of Ellen Harmon claimed to have dreams and visions that were divinely inspired. Contrary to what many may believe, Ellen Harmon (later known as Ellen G. White) was not quickly embraced by early Adventists. As a matter of fact, many were skeptical and were not willing to accept her messages unless they could find Biblical support for her claims. 
Today, despite her tremendous achievements and the evidence of good fruits produced by her ministry, Ellen G. White continues to be a controversial and highly scrutinized figure within and without Adventist circles.
This week Jesse Sias and WAA Contributor Roshan Mansinghani talk about the Biblical tests a person must pass if they are to be considered a prophet or messenger of God and begin a biographical journey to see whether this Advent pioneer can truly be considered a godly messenger.
