"You asked if there is a statement in the writings of Mrs. White to the effect that it was God's intention that the Lamb of God should be sacrificed by the High Priest as Abraham was about to sacrifice Isaak when the angel intervened, and that the crucifixion became the means only because the priests had failed to study, understand, and accept the Scriptures. I feel very certain that there is no statement of this character from the pen of Ellen G. White, either published or unpublished. If you have read such a statement, it must be the conjecture of some writer other than Ellen G. White. I would suggest that you need not continue your search, for I am very positive that Ellen White has not made such a statement." ALW
