3, [LOOKING]. To the question, "Where is it?" the answer is equally plain. During the typical dispensation, it was here upon earth; in the present antitypical dispensation, it is in heaven. p. 274, Para. 1, [LOOKING]. What are its uses? -- It is the center around which all the worship of God revolves, and to which every act of devotion points. And why? -- Because it is the habitation of God, and there in the most holy, he placed the transcript of his will, the ten commandments; and there on the mercyseat, the cover of the ark, is the focal point in the work of redemption, where "mercy and truth meet together, and righteousness and peace kiss each other." Ps. 85:10. There reposes the law which shows transgression; and there is presented the blood which satisfies the law, and, so far as the sinner's record is concerned, blots out the sin. p. 274, Para. 2, [LOOKING]. What bearing does it have on the question of the law? -- It shows its perpetuity and immutability beyond the possibility of any question. It reveals it to us as intimately connected with the gospel; for it reposes beneath the mercy-seat, where mercy for its violations is provided by the gospel. It reveals it as the foundation of God's throne, the very principles of his government, as over it were the cherubim and the Shekinah of God's presence. p. 274, Para. 3, [LOOKING]. What are its relations, and how extensive? -- The previous chapters of this work have partially and imperfectly answered this question. It relates to everything in the plan of salvation and has to do with every individual who comes within the range of Christ's redeeming work. p. 274, Para. 4, [LOOKING]. What prominence is given to it on the inspired pages of the book of God's revelation to men? -- Great prominence. The word occurs one hundred and forty-four times, not merely as casual mentions, but often as the theme of the discourse itself. p. 275, Para. 1, [LOOKING]. What bearing has it upon the interpretation of the prophecies? -- A bearing the most intimate. It shows that no prophetic period reaches to the coming of the Lord, but only to the comparatively short work called the "cleansing of
the sanctuary," which just precedes that coming. It thus saves us from the folly of time-setting. It clears up the mystery and explains the disappointment in the past Advent movement. It was by mistaking the sanctuary to mean the earth, and supposing that the cleansing of the sanctuary meant the purifying of the earth by the flaming fire in which the Lord Jesus is to be revealed, that the coming of the Lord was vainly looked for at the end of the 2300 days in 1844. But the prophecy only said, "Then shall the sanctuary be cleansed," which is now seen to be the closing work of our High Priest in the temple above. It explains the parable of the wedding garment (Matt. 22:11-13), shows where that preliminary work of judgment comes in, which must precede the coming of Christ, and shows how and when that sentence which eternally fixes every man's condition, whether he be filthy or righteous, unjust or holy, can go forth before the Lord appears. Rev. 22:11. p. 275, Para. 2, [LOOKING]. How is its past history calculated to interest, or its present work to concern us? -- Its past history interests us because it is the text-book from which we learn the nature of the present work of our great High Priest above, and the manner of his ministration; and its present work concerns us, because in connection with the declaration of the prophecies concerning it, we learn more definitely than from any other source, our proximity to the end. p. 275, Para. 3, [LOOKING]. In what way are our dearest interests connected with it? - - Our dearest interests are there because there is our only hope of life and salvation. There is to be found the only means that can cleanse our souls from guilt, and there the only Advocate who can plead our cause. If we accept his mediation on the free terms offered, our case will go well; if we reject it, all is lost. The court is now in session! its sittings soon will close, and its eternal decisions be rendered! p. 275, Para. 4, [LOOKING]. These are the claims it now has upon our attention, the strongest and most urgent that can ever be brought to bear upon the hearts of thoughtful men. p. 276, Para. 1, [LOOK- ING]. All through its history are epochs of interest. It was a point of great interest when the tabernacle was first erected in this world of ours, and an outward symbol of the
