    SISTER WHITE AND THE COMEPLETING OF OUR SANCTAURY DOCTRINE

    Okay, Ive carried out this study a little differently this time around than I have done in the past.

    In the past it was basically all Sister Whites writings and then maybe some Bible and

    explanation. This time I tried to first get peoples attention with the shocking message, share

    the Bible foundation for such a message and back it up with explanations from what we already

    hold as a people as to why, in actuality it must be so, just according to what we already believe

    according to the sanctuary service, both of what we know of the typical service, which are THE

    FIGURES of the True and in the heavenly ministration. Of course along the way I have shared

    writings from Sister White which support what I have been sharing...

    But tonight I will share everything I can think of now in terms of quotes from Sister White

    which I believe confirm every SINGLE PARTICULAR aspect of the sanctuary principles to be ableto proclaim this terrible awakening, shocking message... that Jesus sheds His sacred blood in

    the heavenly sanctuary service to transfer our sins to the heavenly sanctuary.

    Okay her are the following points I would need inspired quotes to establish (PLEASE NOTICE

    HOW MUCH THESE POINTS CONCERING OUR SANCTUARY DOCTRINE ARE OUT OF HARMONY

    WITH POPULAR EVANGELICAL DOCTRINE OF CHRISTIANITY AND THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS,

    MUCH LESS SANCTIFICATION but here I will mostly focus on on-going justification... if you

    accept this, sanctification becomes obviously necessary because if you accept this message in

    heart and soul YOU WILL NOT CONTINUE TO SIN AND CRUCIFY JESUS...)

    ("The reason that we carelessly indulge in sin is that we do not see Jesus. We would not lightlyregard sin, did we appreciate the fact that sin wounds our Lord." {YI, February 10, 1898 par. 3})

    Afterward I will ask a very pertinent question, which is or shall be in the mind of every single

    one of you if you believe in the Spirit of Prophecy...

    This is what we will need to show (each one of these is fundamental to keep the integrity of the

    sanctuary doctrine, without each piece in begins to fall away... as it has done in Adventism for

    lack of establishing and maintaining these points or feature of the doctrine):

    1.) First, that Jesus takes sins upon Himself TODAY when we confess (our sins do not go back

    2,000 years agothe Cross was for the corporate human race and gained for us a second

    probation Jesus bears our individual sins TODAY in heaven before transferring the mto the

    sanctuary)

    2.) Second, that there is real, literal blood of Jesus in the heavenly sanctuary and that it is used,

    literally, in the service of the sanctuary.

    3.) Third, once we establish the second point about blood really being in heaven, the next thing

    to establish is how did the blood get there? The message I am bearing and the point that is the

    HARDEST to accept and certainly to declare is that JESUS STILL SHEDS HIS BLOOD, and thats

    how His blood made it to heaven and thats how it is used in the ministration in heaven...

    4.) Lastly, the Jesus blood is what transfers our sins from Himself (which must be the first pointestablished, that He takes our sins today) to the heavenly sanctuary...

    Lets begin:

    What did Sister White say about...

    1.) Jesus takes our sins upon Himself TODAY... IN HEAVEN :

    What is Christ doing in heaven? He is interceding for us. By His work the threshold of heaven

    is flushed with the glory of God which will shine upon every soul who will open the windows of

    the soul heavenward. As the prayers of the sincere and contrite ones ascend to heaven Christ

    says to the Father, "I will take their sins. Let them stand before you innocent." As He takes

    their sins from them, He fills their hearts with the glorious light of truth and love(MS 28, 1901).

    {7BC 930.16}

    The priests were commanded to eat in the tabernacle of certain portions of the peace-offering.

    By partaking of the sacrifice, and bearing their sins before God, they represented **the work

    that Christ would do for us in the heavenly sanctuary, by bearing our sins in his own body**.

    {ST, April 6, 1888 par. 7}

    As anciently the sins of the people were by faith placed upon the sin offering and through its

    blood transferred, in figure, to the earthly sanctuary, so **in the new covenant the sins of therepentant are by faith placed upon Christ** and transferred, in fact, to the heavenly sanctuary.

    {GC 421.3}

    Conclusion... Christ literally bears our sins in heaven today... already this a fact most people

    today, even among Adventists do not agree with nor believe in...

    2.) There is real, literal blood in the heavenly sanctuary and it is used in the service in heaven :

    Jesus must be presented in simplicity to the children as a sin-pardoning Saviour offering within

    the veil the blood of His atonement, and while Jesus is pleading in their behalf, now, just now,

    while Jesus is making an offering for sin, ask Him to forgive and pardon your sins, to remove

    your transgressions. {19MR 304.4}

    Still bearing humanity he ascended to heaven, triumphant and victorious. He has taken the

    blood of the atonement, sprinkled it upon the mercy-seat and his own garments, and blessed

    3/5

    the people. Soon he will appear the second time to declare that there is no more sacrifice for

    sin. {RH, November 13, 1913 par. 11}

    Our hearts should be full of hope and joy, and we should be able to say with grateful tongues,

    Christ is risen, and is at the right hand of God to make intercession for us. **He has carried his

    blood into the sanctuary**, and will cleanse us from every sin. {ST, August 29, 1892 par. 4}

    Thus Christ, in His own spotless righteousness, after shedding His precious blood, enters into

    the holy place to cleanse the sanctuary. And *there the crimson current is brought into the

    service of reconciling God to man*. {4T 122.1}

    Still bearing humanity, he ascended to heaven, triumphant and victorious. **He has taken the

    blood of his atonement into the holiest of all**, *sprinkled it* upon the mercy-seat** and his

    own garments, and blessed the people. Soon he will appear the second time to declare that

    there is no more sacrifice for sin.{YI, July 25, 1901 par. 4}

    - It is dangerous if we develop mechanisms for making that which we don't want to accept inthe SOP as not literal, especially the way it Sister White wrote these it is hard to make the blood

    as spiritual or symbolic when Jesus is literally in heaven and we hold that the sanctuary and all

    the furniture and apartments are literal as well...

    3.) Jesus still sheds His sacred blood in heaven

    The rock which, smitten by the command of God, sent forth its living waters, was a symbol of

    Christ, smitten and bruised that **by his blood a fountain might be prepared** for the salvation

    of perishing man. As the rock had been once smitten, so Christ was to be "once offered, to bear

    the sins of many." But when Moses rashly smote the rock at Kadesh, the beautiful symbol of

    Christ was marred. Our Saviour was not to be sacrificed a second time. As the great offeringwas made but once, it is only necessary for those who seek the blessings of his grace to ask in

    Jesus' name,--to pour forth the heart's desires in *penitential* prayer. Such prayer will bring

    before the Lord of hosts the wounds of Jesus, and **then will flow forth afresh the life-giving

    blood**, *symbolized* by the flowing of the living water* for thirsting Israel. {ST, October 7,

    1880 par. 2}

    Children of the Lord, how precious is the promise! How full the atonement of the Saviour for

    our guilt! *The Redeemer, with a heart of unalterable love, **still sheds** His sacred blood* in

    the sinner's behalf.{RH, January 9, 1883 par. 21}

    - As I have acknowledged, this is the hardest to accept, but it must be once we understand and

    believe the first principle and that is that Jesus still takes sins upon Himself today, and that

    coupled with the fact that He still has open wounds makes us know that Gethsemane is

    repeated in heaven...

    "These words apply not only to the men who pierced Christ when He hung on the cross of

    Calvary, but to those who by evil-speaking and wrong-doing are piercing Him today. **Daily He

    4/5

    suffers the agonies of the crucifixion**. Daily men and women are piercing Him by dishonoring

    Him, by refusing to do His will." {ST, January 28, 1903 par. 8}

    " Christ as high priest *within the veil *so immortalized Calvary* that though He liveth unto God,

    He dies continually to sin, and thus if any man sin, he has an advocate with the Father." {1SM

    343.1}

    4.) Jesus transfers our sins from Himself to the heavenly sanctuary by His blood :

    As the sins of the people were anciently transferred, in figure, to the earthly sanctuary by the

    blood of the sin-offering, so our sins are, in fact, transferred to the heavenly sanctuary **by the

    blood of Christ**.{4SP 266.1}

    *He has taken the blood of the atonement* into the holiest of all, **sprinkled it upon the

    mercy-seat** and His own garments, and blessed the people. Soon He will appear the second

    time to declare that there is no more sacrifice for sin. {ST, April 19, 1905 par. 4}

    ...

    We know that the Lord said that He will teach knowledge and make (us) to understand

    doctrine by precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a

    little, [and] there a little...

    But still, there remains that one important question we must ask ourselves...

    WHY DID NOT SISTER WHITE JUST TELL US PLAINLY, WITH GREATER EXPLANATION, IF SHE

    MEANT IN HER WRITINGS THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED THAT JESUS SHEDS HIS BLOOD INHEAVEN?

    The reason she did not say it plainly, or pull all the things just reviewed togetherinto one place

    is simple... The Lord didnt give it to her to say it to us plainly...

    IT IS FOR *US* TO SAY AND TO DECLARE THIS TERRIBLE MESSAGE...

    Bible Prophecy foretells that this message of Jesus blood in heaven will be a shaking message

    that will leave among the remnant only those who cannot be shaken (Heb 12:22-27) and it will

    be as Jesus Own Voice speaking from heaven by His blood, which the Bible says is in heaven

    (Heb. 12:22)

    Therefore it is given to us... it is given to us who prayed and so desired to be a part of the

    wonderful terrible events of the last days, who shall live in the generation when Jesus shall

    return and the remnant of His people shall be sealed and saved to sin no more...

    To us is given this terrible wonderful LAST FULL REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST AS A LAMB

    SLAIN IN HEAVEN, even as John saw... even so amen...

    For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on Him, but also to suffer for

    His sake...
