serious, that should she write anything that could be con-
sidered as a rule for settling such cases, it would be misun-
derstood and misused.”—W. C. White to C. P. Bollman,
January 6, 1931
.
We concur fully with Ellen White’s view. Moral problems are
complex. No two situations are exactly alike. Each will require careful
study; and although the differences may be minor, each situation will
require its own solution. The Holy Spirit will always be needed as
a divine Guide and Counselor to help those who are grappling with
moral problems
.
All given names in this book are genuine, but, in the various
problem cases cited, letters of the alphabet have been substituted for
the surname. All chapter titles and sub-headings have been supplied
.
It is our hope and prayer that in the hands of an ever-learning and
truly caring church, the materials in this compilation will contribute to
the elevation of moral standards in the church, and at the same time
provide comfort, encouragement, and hope for those whose complex
moral problems seem beyond human solution
