LOOKING UNTO JESUS OR CHRIST IN TYPE AND ANTITYPE. BY ...

sealing message (Revelation 7) will have performed its
work, and all antecedent questions being determined, all
cases decided, everything will be ready for the coming of
the Lord. p. 224, Para. 1, [LOOKING].
Reader, think how many years already this solemn work has
been in progress! How much longer can it continue? More
than half a century of this decisive work of investigative
judgment already past, and yet how few of all the masses of
the earth dream of their position! O church of Christ, lift
up thy voice like a trumpet, sound an alarm which shall
cause all the inhabitants of the land to hear and tremble;
for the great day of the Lord is near, it is near, and
hasteth greatly. p. 224, Para. 2, [LOOKING].
It may occur to some as an objection to the view here offered,
that no such work of judgment appeared in the type,
and hence nothing of this kind could occur in the antitype.
p. 224, Para. 3, [LOOKING].
Of course there is an almost infinite difference between
earthly things and heavenly. The law, said Paul, had not

to afflict their souls while the high priest was
officiating for them, or lose the benefit of his work. It

could be performed by mortal men; and it was certainly sufficient
to prefigure the greater and more solemn work of
judgment, which must take place, yea, must be even now taking
place, in heaven. p. 224, Para. 4, [LOOKING].
Chapter 26 -- THE OPENING OF THE TEMPLE p. 225, Para. 1,
[LOOKING].
AND the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was
seen in his temple the ark of his testament." Rev. 11:19.
Here we have another mighty truth connected with the sanctuary.
p. 226, Para. 1, [LOOKING].
We have seen that the temple in heaven is the sanctuary,
the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
The opening of this temple, brought to view in this passage,
is that which reveals the ark of God. The ark had its
