But in the type the scapegoat did not bear away the sins of<br />

the people till after the cleansing of the sanctuary; hence<br />

the antitype of this work cannot take place till after the<br />

cleansing of the antitypical sanctuary, which work, as has<br />

been proved, did not commence till the termination of the<br />

2300 days in 1844. Dan. 8:14; Heb. 9:23. It is therefore<br />

impossible to carry this work back to the crucifixion of<br />

Christ, which was even before he commenced his ministry in<br />

the heavenly sanctuary at all. Christ cannot therefore be<br />

the antitype of the scapegoat. p. 258, Para. 3, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

2. The scapegoat, after being loaded with sin, was sent<br />

away by the priest. He could not therefore be the priest<br />

himself. But in this dispensation Christ is priest; he cannot<br />

therefore be the antitypical scapegoat to be sent away<br />

by the priest. Christ cannot send away himself. the conclusion<br />

is hence inevitable that the scapegoat must be some<br />

being whom Christ, after placing upon him the sins borne<br />

from the sanctuary, shall send away into a land not inhabited.<br />

p. 258, Para. 4, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

3. The scapegoat was sent away from Israel into the uninhabited<br />

wilderness. If our Saviour is its antitype, he also<br />

must be sent away, not his body alone, as some suppose who<br />

refer it to his death, but his entire being (for the goat<br />

was sent away alive) from not to, nor into, his people;<br />

neither into heaven; for that is not a wilderness, or land<br />

not inhabited. But instead of thus being sent away, Christ<br />

is to dwell in the midst of his people, the true Israel of<br />

faith, forevermore. p. 259, Para. 1, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

4. The scapegoat received and retained all the iniquities<br />

of the children of Israel; but when Christ appears the second<br />

time, he will be "without sin." p. 259, Para. 2,<br />

[<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

5. It is impossible that two goats, one of which was chosen<br />

by the Lord, and is called the Lord's, while the other<br />

is not so called, but was left to perform an entirely different<br />

office, -- it is impossible that these both should<br />

typify the same person. But the goat on which the Lord's<br />

lot fell, the blood of which was ministered in the sanctuary,<br />

did certainly typify Christ. Just as surely the scapegoat<br />

did not typify him. p. 259, Para. 3, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

It being thus proved by evidence which must be conclusive<br />

to every candid mind, that Christ cannot be the antitype of
