While THE GREAT CONTROVERSY BETWEEN CHRIST AND SATAN was originally written in the 1880s, the topics remain relevant for today.

In writing about Tyndale she discussed Bible translations and some of the related inaccuracies.
Mrs. White also identified the "mystery of iniquity" that Paul wrote of in II Thessalonians 2:7.
The "Historical Dating of Chapter" was a helpful feature in the book.
The last part of the book is the author's plausible interpretation of the Great controversy's end.
Along with a mountain of Scripture quotes, Mrs. White offered some memorable advice.
"Those who will not read the lessons from the book of God, are bidden to read it in the history of nations"- page 310.
"...how dare men teach that the Revelation is a mystery, beyond the reach of human understanding? It is a mystery revealed, a book opened."- page 364.
"It is not enough to have good intentions; it is not enough to do what a man thinks is right, or what the minister tells him is right. His soul's salvation is at stake, and he should search the Scriptures for himself."- page 635.
