Conflict Between False Science and Religion—I have been warned that henceforth we shall have a constant contest. Science, so-called, and religion will be placed in opposition to each other, because finite men do not comprehend the power and greatness of God. These words of Holy Writ were presented to me: “Of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.” This will surely be seen among the people of God, and there will be those who are unable to perceive the most wonderful and important truths for this time, truths which are essential for their own safety and salvation, while matters that are in comparison as the merest atoms, matters in which there is scarcely a grain of truth, are dwelt upon and are magnified by the power of Satan so that they appear of the utmost importance. {Ev 593.1}

Konflikt mellem falsk videnskab og religion. - Jeg er blevet advaret om at vi stadig har en strid at kæmpe. Den såkaldte videnskab og religionen vil sættes op mod hinanden, fordi begrænsede mennesker ikke fatter Guds kraft og storhed. Disse ord fra den hellige skrift blev bragt til mig: "Og af jeres egen midte skal der fremstå mænd, som fører falsk tale for at drage disciplene efter sig." Dette vil visselig kunne ses blandt Guds folk, og der vil være dem som ikke er i stand til at indse de mest forunderlige og vigtigste sandheder for denne tid, sandheder som er væsentlige for deres egen sikkerhed og frelse, medens der dvælses ved ting der er atom-små, ting der knabt nok har et korn af sandhed i sig, og ophøjes af Satans kraft, så at de ser så vigtige ud.
