09 The Dominion of the Earth

“

Satan’s work is to condemn and destroy, to take away man’s liberty and destroy his life. Transgression always leads men to act as Satan’s agents, to carry out his purposes against God and righteousness. In Nazareth Christ announced that His work was to restore and uplift, to bring peace and happiness. He came to this world to represent the Father, and He revealed His divine power by giving life to the dead, by restoring the sick and suffering to soundness and health. He was in this world as the tree of life. Satan is at war with Christ, the divine Restorer.
ST March 21, 1900, par. 13-15

What are the principles that govern God's character?
What is God's relationship to His law?
How does God deal with His rebellious children?

This book considers these questions, and the relationship between God, life and death, and God's relationship to the use of force and freedom. Additionally, what will the end of the wicked be like? Will all be saved? What is God's wrath like? What is God's relationship to the wars described in the Old Testament? The verses on these subjects are considered in the light of the cross of Christ, which illuminates the existing conflict and character of our loving heavenly Father.

A good resource for many of the relevant Ellen White quotes on various character of God subjects.
