Faith is inspired by the Holy Spirit
Quotations from the writings of Ellen G. White with the phrase . . .
| Faith is inspired by the Holy Spirit |
| Distrust of God is the natural outgrowth of the unrenewed heart, which is at enmity with Him. But faith is inspired by the Holy Spirit, and it will flourish only as it is cherished. No man can become strong in faith without a determined effort. Unbelief strengthens as it is encouraged; and if men, instead of dwelling upon the evidences which God has given to sustain their faith, permit themselves to question and cavil, they will find their doubts constantly becoming more confirmed. Great Controversy, page 527.3 |

| Faith is inspired in human hearts |
| And our sanitariums have been erected to supply a great necessity in healing the sick and suffering ones, and thus counterwork the work of Satan. And as in the miracles when Christ was in the world, we His followers are to discard drugs. We are to have faith, living faith, to read the Word, to inspire faith, to pray by the bedside of the sick, to talk faith. And Christ says, "Go ye therefore, and baptize all nations in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Thus many are to be converted; the power of living faith is inspired in human hearts. {21MR 139.5} |
