The Roots of Rebellion by Ellen G. White

The Roots of Rebellion erupts from the fertile soil of profound discontent, self-determination and insatiable striving for liberty and power. Originating from the clash of two ancient kingdoms and unfurling at the world's spiritual epicentres, this book declares the virulent and intractable enmity to truth; resulting in embattled sequels of tyranny and revolution and outbreaks of hostility and persecution, all yielding the bitter fruit of anarchy. The mystery of rebellion dominates the seats of government and rages in the hearts of humankind. Flourishing into mature, passionate and intrepid subversion, the instruments of rebellion construct and establish an order of chaos and coercion; commanding universal compliance and cooperation. As it effectively enlightens on the secret underpinnings of one world government and hegemonic imperialism, the reader is armed to encounter and counter the greatest deception of all time.

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Roots</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rebellion</strong><br />

11<br />

Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, And the sound <strong>of</strong> your stringed instruments;<br />

<strong>The</strong> maggot is spread under you, And worms cover you.’ 12 “How you are fallen from<br />

heaven, O Lucifer, son <strong>of</strong> the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who<br />

weakened the nations! 13 For you have said in your heart :‘I will ascend into heaven, I<br />

will exalt my throne above the stars <strong>of</strong> God; I will also sit on the mount <strong>of</strong> the<br />

congregation On the farthest sides <strong>of</strong> the north;<br />

Isaiah 14:11-13 New King James Version (NKJV)<br />

Satan's rebellion was to be a lesson to the universe through all coming ages, a perpetual<br />

testimony to the nature and terrible results <strong>of</strong> sin. <strong>The</strong> working out <strong>of</strong> Satan's rule, its<br />

effects upon both men and angels, would show what must be the fruit <strong>of</strong> setting aside<br />

the divine authority. It would testify that with the existence <strong>of</strong> God's government and<br />

His law is bound up the well-being <strong>of</strong> all the creatures He has made. Thus the history <strong>of</strong><br />

this terrible experiment <strong>of</strong> rebellion was to be perpetual safeguard to all.<br />
