"Hebrews 8:5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. His words mean simply this:
--In Heaven there is a sanctuary where Christ ministers,
--and that sanctuary has two holies,
--and two distinct ministrations, as truly as the earthly sanctuary had.
If his words do not mean this,
they have no meaning at all.
How natural, then, the conclusion, that as the Jewish priests ministered daily in connection with the holy place of the sanctuary, and on the tenth day of the seventh month, at the close of their yearly round of service, the high priest entered the most holy place to make atonement for the cleansing of the sanctuary, so Christ ministered in connection with the holy place of the heavenly sanctuary from the time of His ascension to the ending of the 2300 days of Daniel 8, in 1844, when on the tenth day of the seventh month of that year He entered the most holy place of the heavenly tabernacle to make a special atonement for the blotting out of the sins of His people, or, which is the same thing, for the cleansing of the sanctuary.
Daniel 8:14 Unto two thousand three hundred days, [said the angel to the prophet,] then shall the sanctuary be cleansed."
