Christ's Object Lessons

'Christ's Object Lessons' Summary
In her classic work Christ's Object Lessons, Ellen G. White uses everyday objects to illustrate the truths of the Bible. White believed that God created the world to be a schoolhouse for us, and that the objects in nature can teach us valuable lessons about God and His character.

"The grain of wheat must die in order to reproduce itself. So Christ died in order to give us eternal life. He is the 'life-giving grain.'"
In another chapter, White discusses the sun and stars, which she sees as a symbol of God's power and glory. She writes:
"The sun and stars are a great light to the world. They tell us of the greatness and power of God. They are a reminder that He is always watching over us."
White also discusses a variety of other objects in Christ's Object Lessons, including the vine, the sheep, the fig tree, and the water. She shows how these objects can teach us about God's love, His forgiveness, His faithfulness, and His provision.
