As we continue this study, it would be well to note that an important key in having a proper understanding of the testimonies is found in the testimonies themselves. “The testimonies themselves will be the key that will explain the messages given, as scripture is explained by scripture.” (1 SM, p. 42 - Letter 73, 1903) Thus to correctly understand the testimonies, we must compare them with other testimonies just as we compare Scripture with Scripture.
