"The subject of the sanctuary and the investigative judgment should be clearly understood by the people of God."—The Great Controversy, p. 488.In teaching the lessons of the sanctuary, a model is of invaluable assistance.

"The sanctuary in heaven is the very center of Christ's work in behalf of man."—Ibid.

"Such subjects as the sanctuary, . . . are perfectly calculated to explain the past advent movement, and show what our present position is, establish the faith of the doubting, and give certainty to the glorious future."—Early Writings, p. 63.
