"There is no excuse for any one in taking the position that there is no more truth to be revealed, and that all our expositions of Scripture are without an error. The fact that certain doctrines have been held as truth for many years by our people, is not a proof that our ideas are infallible. Age will not make error into truth, and truth can afford to be fair. No true doctrine will lose anything by close investigation." (E. G. White, Review & Herald, Dec. 20, 1892.)
"Those who cling to old customs and hoary errors have lost sight of the fact that light is ever increasing upon the path of all who follow . . . [Yahushua]; truth is constantly unfolding to the people of . . . [Yahuwah]. We must be continually advancing if we are following our Leader. It is when we walk in the light that shines upon us, obeying the truth that is open to our understanding, that we receive greater light. We cannot be excusable in accepting only the light which our fathers had one hundred years ago. If our . . . [Yahuwah]-fearing fathers had seen what we see, and heard what we hear, they would have accepted the light, and walked in it. If we desire to imitate their faithfulness, we must receive the truths open to us, as they received those presented to them; we must do as they would have done, had they lived in our day." (E. G. White, Historical Sketches, 1891, p. 197.)
