The Sanctuary doctrine: answering objections
Contents
Introduction: Sanctuary doctrine overview
Objection 1: Atonement for sin was wholly completed on the Cross.
Objection 2: Christ’s ‘Daily’ Ministry was conducted before the Cross
Objection 3: The cleansing of the Sanctuary in Heaven began immediately upon Christ’s ascension
Objection 4: The Day of Atonement on Earth points to the Cross
Objection 5: The start date of the 2300 days (457 BC) is not warranted in Scripture - thus the 2300 days prophecy does not point to 1844
Objection 6: If the 2300 days prophecy applies to the Papacy, there is a mismatch with the years of the prophecy - 2300 v 1260
Objection 7: The cleansing of the Heavenly Sanctuary deals with the record of the ‘little horn’ power, not the record of the redeemed
Objection 8: There is not a Heavenly Sanctuary with two compartments - there are just two phases in Heaven itself
