Prophets are Human

Prophets are Human is one of those books that is born out of adversity and controversy. The catalyst for it centres around the increaseing criticism and accusations that have been leveled at Ellen G White and her writings by those intent on destroying her credibility as an inspired writer and one through whom the gift of prophecy was manifest. Much has been published, circulated via videos and promulgated on the internet with this object in mind.

This book has been written to show the arguments brought against Ellen White are, in the main, based on an incorrect understanding of inspiration and how this gift is manifest through the biblical prophets. The author, by analyzing the human side of Bible writers as revealed in Scripture, shows clearly that the problems encountered, which have caused many to lose their faith, are not so much with her writings as they are with unbiblical expectations of them. In short, the book makes the very important point that the same criticisms brought against Ellen White can to a large degree be brought against many of the authors of Scripture.
