Counsels for the Church: A Guide to Doctrinal Beliefs and Christian Living

As the Seventh-day Adventist movement has grown in all parts of the world, members who speak and read the various languages have yearned for the "Testimonies for the Church," which, in full or in part, have edified and blessed the church throughout the world. It is not possible to publish in each language the full content of the nine "Testimony" volumes and the many other Spirit of Prophecy books. There is presented in this volume, however, a selection of general counsels drawn from these sources which will prove of great service and practical help to the church. The selection of materials, which have been conveniently grouped in the sixty-six chapters of this volume, is the work of the Trustees of the Ellen G. White Estate. It has been a painstaking task to gather, arrange, translate, and publish in this book a comprehensive selection of materials from the many E. G. White books. Because of the limitation of space, only the more essential counsels on vital themes could be included. Even this presents a wide range of subjects. [From the Foreword]
