Steve Daily will release a new book on October 18 which documents fraud at The Ellen White Estate
New book The White Estate Fraud: Seventh-day Adventism's Scandalous Untold Story exposes documented fraud of SDA prophet/founder Ellen White’s Estate, it's longtime leader Arthur White, and the SDA Church.
​
Author Steve Daily has just released this new book that describes the intentional and pre-meditated fraud which involved more than twenty years of Arthur White, the grandson of Seventh Day Adventist Church founder Ellen White, secretly colluding with Carrie Johnson to totally fabricate the book, I was Canright's Secretary. This volume was used by White, Johnson, and the SDA Church to defame and destroy the reputation of D. M. Canright, who was Adventism's and Ellen White's most effective critic during her lifetime. She died in 1915. Canright died in 1919. His two books were considered to be the most powerful critiques of Ellen White’s ministry up until 1970.
Daily's book clearly demonstrates and documents that Carrie Johnson not only never worked for D. M. Canright, but that she never even met him. She lied to his family, claiming to be a supportive investigator to borrow Canright's diary and then with the help of Arthur White stole this document, housed it in the White Estate, where it still resides. The White Estate does not allow researchers proper access to it. The SDA church up this day has used Johnson’s book to attempt to destroy Canright’s legitimate criticism of Ellen White’s ministry.
The White Estate Fraud is a follow-up and companion book to the 2020 Ellen G. White--A Psychobiography. The duo may be as significant to the SDA Church as the CES Letter was to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In that document, Jeremy Runnells sought answers to his doubts about the fraud of its founder Joseph Smith and extra-biblical teachings of that church, which never responded.
Similarly, Daily, a historian, psychologist, minister, and former SDA member himself, said he wrote the book so that more SDA members could know the truth of what their religious affiliation was based on.
“I want people to know the truth about the SDA Church and many of its beliefs that were conjured up by Ellen White and aren’t biblical. In a spirit of goodwill, I lovingly call on the Seventh Day Adventist Church to set aside the ministry and teachings of Ellen White, which were fraudulent, and move forward as a protestant church that follows only a Christ-centered understanding of the Bible as its guide for promoting the Gospel. Unfortunately, many of the SDA Church’s teachings aren’t biblical and are based on Ellen White’s fraudulent ministry, including her widespread plagiarism and her claimed visions,” said Daily.
The White Estate Fraud is available for purchase at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other sellers.
