SEVEN SECRETS OF MENTAL POWER IN THE WRITINGS OF ELLEN G. WHITE

Abstract

Despite the vast research done by the theologians and educators of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, there is always a necessity to compare the concept of mental power explicitly presented in the writings of Ellen White with the contemporary science. That is why this theoretical paper aims at addressing the above-mentioned need by means of comparative literature analysis. The examination of the “seven secrets” has shown that the revelations given to Ellen White regarding the concept of mental power are practical, scientifically reasonable, and, in general, ahead of her time. Moreover, contributing to the growing body of research on Ellen White, this project may inform future studies in the field of education from the philosophical, theological, psychological, and mental health perspectives.
