The Great Controversy Between God And Man, Christ And Satan, H.L. Hastings And E.G. White

This is the book Ellen G. White has been accused of copying. H.L. Hastings' "The Great Controversy between God and Man" was published in January, 1858, and was reviewed by James White just months before he published his wife's own version of "The Great Controversy". Included is Ellen White's original 1858 version - much different than the oft-revised edition promoted today. Both books in this one volume By comparing these two Great Controversies of 1858, you can determine for yourself the extent of E.G. White's inspiration from visions, and inspiration from one of the most popular Second Advent Movement writers of her time - Horace L. Hastings.


About the Author
Horace L. Hastings (Boston) was born November 26, 1831. Barely a teen at the time of the Great Disappointment, he was active in the Second Advent Movement, becoming the first president of the Christian Publication Society. He was descended from four generations of preachers, and was a commanding preacher, writer, and publisher. His lecture "Inspiration of the Bible" was printed as "Will the Old Book Stand". Two and three-quarter million copies were printed, making it "Probably the most widely circulated tracate on Christian evidences since the time of Christ." --Joseph Cook.
