places; and so Macknight renders it: "Well, then, brethren,
having boldness in the entrance of the holy places by the
blood of Jesus." p. 247, Para. 3, [LOOKING].
These words are a complete refutation of the doctrine that
probation closes with our Lord's entrance within the second
vail. We enter into the most holy as well as into the holy
by Christ's blood; and we do it with boldness, because of
the promise of the forgiveness of our sins. Thank God that
we can still thus enter by the blood of Jesus. p. 248,
Para. 1, [LOOKING].
The conclusion is consequently put beyond dispute that
probation does not end when the work in the most holy place
commences, but that it ends with each individual, as the
work shall reach his or her individual case. The natural
order would seem to be that this work, which has been shown
to be the investigative judgment, would begin with the earliest
generations of men, that is, with those who are now
in their graves (but their record lives on high), and so
come down through all successive generations till it
reaches the living, the decision of whose cases would be
the very closing portion of this last work. p. 248, Para.
2, [LOOKING].
But at length the cases of all the generations of the dead
will have been examined, and the work will reach the living;
then, as each individual case is taken up and passed
upon, his probation will end, and his destiny be fixed.
This is the scene our Lord brings to view when just before
his coming he says that this fearful fiat shall go forth:
"He that is unjust, let him be unjust still; and he which
is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous,
let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let
him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward
is with me, to give every man according as his work
shall be." Rev. 22:11,12. p. 248, Para. 3, [LOOKING].
And how near are we to this solemn moment? -- We know not.
For over half a century already has this closing sanctuary
work been in progress. It cannot much longer continue. Its
whole duration is to be spanned by one generation. Matt.
24:34. This much we know, as taught by the type, that if we
would have Christ's blood avail for us, to atone for our
sins when our cases shall come up in that grand review, the
record must show that we have sincerely repented of all our
sins, and sought pardon for them through our Advocate on
