An exclusively religious analysis of The Great Controversy is insufficient to bring out the nature and scope of the real changes presently occurring.

The end of time motif in The Great Controversy is not centrally that of "truth or falsehood" but of "life or death."

The Great Controversy is an eschatological book that not only describes the future but also sketches a harsh evaluation of the present.

No church is safe from an eventual deformation of the Bible, whether Catholics, Protestants in general, or Adventists.
