It is nearly 3500 years ago when God demonstrated in visual aid his entire plan of salvation. It was God who said in Genesis 25:6 that let them make me a sanctuary that I may dwell among them. by reading this text we know quite well that God wants us to worship him in the portable temple. God is so unique in his execution of his plans that he gave moses a pattern of how the sanctuary would be like, the earthly sanctuary would be a replica of the heavenly sanctuary. we ought to know that God ‘s plans for the salvation of mankind are revealed in the sanctuary. In the earthly sanctuary you had a priest who would enter the most holy place annually and this would be on the day of atonement, but at the crusifiction of Jesus the earthly sanctuary services came to an end. He is our true passover, to which the sacrificial system pointed to. The sacrificial laws was only to last until Jesus’ death. From that day the heavenly sanctuary began to serve God’s People and the earthly sanctuary and services was nullified by God. In Daniel 8:14 it says that unto two thosand three hundred days(years) then shall the sancutuary be cleansed, it would be 2300 days into the future the heavenly sanctuary would be cleansed not by man but by God himself, that is the day of atonement woud begin. One would want to ask the question when did the judgement began in heaven , following from when the degree was given to rebuild Jerusalem, to the crusifiction of Jesus, right down through the ages we realize that the judgement began in 1844 A.D when the investigative judgement began with Jesus our high priest leaving the holy place into the most Holy place. So we can see clearly that the judgement has been in place for over 175 years. The end time church must be preaching revelation 14:6-7 and it is to fear God and give glory to him for the hour of his judgement is come.The church must be preaching that heavenly judgement is now in session, it began in 1844 and will end when when sin will be no more, and for that fact we should say thank you Jesus. May we be found righteous when Jesus Comes the second time.-Elder Micheal stewart
