If the preconceived opinions or particular ideas of some are crossed in being reproved by testimonies, they have a burden at once to make plain their position to discriminate between the testimonies, defining what is Sister White’s human judgment, and what is the word of the Lord.

They make of none effect the counsel of God by their tradition.—Manuscript 16, 1889. (3SM 68.2) MC VC
