    Death is. . .

    You could ponder the resurrection that occurred when Jesus was resurrected as described in the New Testament. EGW does describe (see Desire of Ages) these resurrected individuals as having been taken to heaven with Jesus and represented a wave sheath offering. Many of these resurrected also probably form the body of the 24 elders as described in Revelation. Considering that prior to the First Advent, only three individuals were known to have been in heaven. So, to get to 24 you need to find 21 more individuals to be in heaven. When she described seeing the Old Testament saints, I don't know that she said they were currently in heaven or if the vision was of seeing them in the future in heaven. I am confident there is a body of individuals in heaven, but I would not venture to state exactly who they are beyond Enoch, Moses, and Elijah. As far as EGW "changing" her views, she did come out of the Methodist faith and much was developed as part of the SDA beliefs after 1844. I do not know of any beliefs that were developed and then changed later on. Do keep in mind that most of the SDA beliefs did not come from EGW, but by serious Bible study by groups of early church pioneers.

    Gustave: As to EGW, she changed her views on a number of doctrines. So, yes, her views on death probably changed.

    Gustave: As to your reference to Solomon, a reasonable person could consider that statement to refer to our human life.
