  1. Review and Herald , July 9, 1895, p. 434.

  2. The assertion, advanced by some, that “church officers” here refers to conference officials is unlikely in view of Ellen White's use twice in this article of the term “conference officers” to refer to this group and her corresponding single use of “officers of the church” to refer to the local church leaders. She seems to have been able to avoid ambiguity on this point.

  3. See, for instance, Medical Ministry , p. 140.

  20. We are reminded again of the statement quoted earlier: “There are women who should labor in the Gospel ministry. In many respects they would do more good than the ministers who neglect to visit the flock of God" ( Evangelism, p. 472, italics supplied).

  33. Letter 32a, 1880.

  34. Ibid. This was evidently a problem affecting the church at large, for in the next year Mrs. White published an 82-page pamphlet entitled Bible Sanctification: A Contrast of the True and False Theories (Battle Creek: Steam Press, 1881). This was an edited version of a series of 10 articles published in the Review and Herald between January 18 and May 3, 1881. Their appearance in pamphlet form in the same year of their publication in the Review indicates the importance they held for the church. Bible Sanctification was later republished as The Sanctified Life .

  46. She cautioned others concerning that danger: “Seventh-day Adventists are not in any way to belittle woman's work” ( Evangelism, pp. 492, 493).

  47. See, for example, Christian Service , pp. 27-29; Evangelism , pp. 459-461, 464-478, 491-493; Gospel Workers , pp. 452, 453; Welfare Ministry , pp. 143-166; and Counsels on Health . She also calls for women to become involved in medical missionary work, some as doctors and nurses, and others as nonprofessionals.
