    10. The Work of a Prophet and More

    “During the discourse, I said that I did not claim to be a prophetess. Some were surprised at this statement, and as much is being said in regard to it, I will make an explanation. Others have called me a prophetess, but I have never assumed that title. I have not felt that it was my duty thus to designate myself. Those who boldly assume that they are prophets in this our day are often a reproach to the cause of Christ.EGWATHW 3.7

    “My work includes much more than this name signifies. I regard myself as a messenger, entrusted by the Lord with messages for His people.”—Letter 55, 1905. In Selected Messages 1:35-36.EGWATHW 4.1

    “I am now instructed that I am not to be hindered in my work by those who engage in suppositions regarding its nature, whose minds are struggling with so many intricate problems connected with the supposed work of a prophet. My commission embraces the work of a prophet, but it does not end there. It embraces much more than the minds of those who have been sowing the seeds of unbelief can comprehend.”—Letter 244, 1906 (Addressed to elders of the Battle Creek Church), in Selected Messages 1:36.EGWATHW 4.2
