 Heb 8:1 Now of the things which we have spoken
this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is
set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in
the heavens;
 Heb 8:2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true
tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
 Heb 8:5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of
heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God
when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See,
saith he, that thou make all things according to the
pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

 Heb 9:11 But Christ being come an high priest of
good things to come, by a greater and more perfect
tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not
of this building;
 
 Heb 9:23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns
of things in the heavens should be purified with
these; but the heavenly things themselves with better
sacrifices than these.
 Heb 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy
places made with hands, which are the figures of the
true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the
presence of God for us:
 
 Rev 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in
heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our
Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
 Rev 11:16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their
seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
 Rev 11:17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art,
and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power,
and hast reigned.
 Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the
time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give
reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that
fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy
the earth.
 Rev 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was
seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and
voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

 The Sanctuary a Point of Special Attack.-- In the
future, deception of every kind is to arise, and we
want solid ground for our feet. We want solid pillars
for the building. Not one pin is to be removed from
that which the Lord has established. The enemy will
bring in false theories, such as the doctrine that there
is no sanctuary. This is one of the points on which
there will be a departing from the faith. Where shall
we find safety unless it be in the truths that the Lord
has been giving for the last fifty years?-- Review and
Herald, May 25, 1905. {CW 53.2}
 
 Satan is striving continually to bring in fanciful suppositions in
regard to the sanctuary, degrading the wonderful
representations of God and the ministry of Christ for our
salvation into something that suits the carnal mind. He removes
its presiding power from the hearts of believers, and supplies
its place with fantastic theories invented to make void the
truths of the atonement, and destroy our confidence in the
doctrines which we have held sacred since the third angel's
message was first given. Thus he would rob us of our faith in
the very message that has made us a separate people, and has
given character and power to our work.--Special Testimonies,
Series B, No. 7, p. 17. (1905.) {CW 53.3}

 
 I know that the sanctuary question stands in
righteousness and truth, just as we have held it for so
many years. It is the enemy that leads minds off on
sidetracks. He is pleased when those who know the
truth become engrossed in collecting scriptures to
pile around erroneous theories, which have no
foundation in truth. The scriptures thus used are
misapplied; they were not given to substantiate
error, but to strengthen truth.--Gospel Workers, p.
303. (1915.) {CW 54.1}
 
 The sanctuary in heaven is the very center of
Christ's work in behalf of men. It concerns every soul
living upon the earth. It opens to view the plan of
redemption, bringing us down to the very close of
time, and revealing the triumphant issue of the
contest between righteousness and sin. It is of the
utmost importance that all should thoroughly
investigate these subjects, and be able to give to
every one that asketh them a reason for the hope that
is in them. {RH, November 9, 1905 par. 11}

 
 We are now living in the great day of atonement. In the
typical service, while the high priest was making the
atonement for Israel, all were required to afflict their souls
by repentance of sin, by humiliation before the Lord, lest
they be cut off from among the people. In like manner, all
who would have their names retained in the book of life,
should now, in the few remaining days of their probation,
afflict their souls before God by sorrow for sin, and true
repentance. There must be deep, faithful searching of
heart. The light, frivolous spirit indulged in by so many
professed Christians must be put away
 
 . There is earnest warfare before all who would subdue
the evil tendencies that strive for the mastery. The work of
preparation is an individual work. We are not saved in
groups. The purity and devotion of one will not offset the
want of these qualities in another. Though all nations are
to pass in judgment before God, yet he will examine the
case of each individual with as close and searching
scrutiny as if there were not another being upon the earth.
Every one must be tested, and found without spot or
wrinkle or any such thing. {RH, November 9, 1905 par.
12}
 
 The scripture which above all others had been
both the foundation and central pillar of the advent
faith was the declaration, "Unto two thousand and
three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be
cleansed." Daniel 8:14.
 
 The precious hours, instead of being given to pleasure, to
display, or to gain seeking, should be devoted to an earnest,
prayerful study of the word of truth. The subject of the
sanctuary and the investigative judgment should be clearly
understood by the people of God. All need a knowledge for
themselves of the position and work of their great High Priest.
Otherwise it will be impossible for them to exercise the faith
which is essential at this time or to occupy the position which
God designs them to fill. Every individual has a soul to save or
to lose. Each has a case pending at the bar of God. Each must
meet the great Judge face to face. How important, then, that
every mind contemplate often the solemn scene when the
judgment shall sit and the books shall be opened, when, with
Daniel, every individual must stand in his lot, at the end of the
days. {GC 488.2}
