Ellen White’s Comments on Creation Care

“God chose a secluded home in the country for Jesus to grow up. He enjoyed the quiet of dawn and twilight in the green valleys, and other lessons from nature.”

Adapted from Adventist Home pg. 132

“Children as well as older people can relax and enjoy nature—from forests, hills, and valleys to rivers and plains. There’s such a variety of shapes and colors in nature! Think of the beautiful trees, shrubs, and different varieties of flowers found in nature’s garden!”

Adapted from Adventist Home pg. 396

“Even those without much money could have a tiny lawn if they lived in the country, with a few trees for shade, and flowering shrubs and fragrant blossoms. Love of nature can draw families closer to each other and closer to God.”

Adapted from Ministry of Healing pg. 370

“God wants us to enjoy nature and He hopes we will find birds and flowers delightful.”

Adapted from Councils on Health pg. 266

Our Creator chose the original vegan diet—whole grains, fruits, nuts and vegetables. This diet gives extra strength, endurance, and vigorous intelligence that you don’t get from junk food.

Adapted from Ministry of Healing pg. 296, 297

“All the elements of nutrition are contained in a vegan diet.”
